KNOXVILLE – Tennessee (5-5, 3-3 SEC) will return to action in Week 13 following an open date.
The Vols will play at Missouri (5-5, 2-4 SEC) with kickoff slated for 7:30 p.m. ET.
A win would make Tennessee bowl eligible with a regular season finale home contest against Vanderbilt awaiting on Nov. 30.
Ahead of the Tennessee-Missouri game, Jerry Palm of CBS Sports provided his thoughts on where the Vols could go bowling in the postseason.
If UT finished the regular season with a 7-5 or 6-6 record, Palm views Tennessee’s bowl destination the same with six or seven wins.
“Their record does not really matter,” Palm told Vols Wire.
Palm mentioned Tennessee’s destination most likely “depends more on whether the Music City Bowl prefers Louisville (6-4, 4-3 ACC) or Kentucky (5-5, 3-5 SEC).”
“I think the Music City Bowl or Liberty Bowl are most likely,” Palm said of Tennessee. “The Texas Bowl and Belk Bowl are also in play with an outside chance at the Gator Bowl.”
Palm currently has Tennessee projected to play Louisville in the Music City Bowl on Dec. 30.
