No. 9 seed Tennessee (10-2, 6-2 SEC) is preparing to play at No. 8 seed Ohio State (10-2, 7-2 Big Ten) in the first round of the College Football Playoff.
The Buckeyes will host the Vols on Saturday at Ohio Stadium in Columbus, Ohio (8 p.m. EST, ABC).
“Great opportunity this week, playing a big game against a great opponent,” Tennessee head coach Josh Heupel said. “A lot of work has gone on to get to this point. The guys started back in January, staff and players together. They’ve earned the right to play in a game like this.”
Tennessee announced its uniform combination against the Buckeyes on Wednesday. The Vols will wear storm trooper uniforms, consisting of white helmets, white jerseys and white pants.
