The Tennessee Vols were ranked No. 25 in the initial College Football Playoff rankings that were released last week.
Tennessee was the only three-loss team included in last week’s top 25.
While it’s unlikely that Tennessee can climb into the top 12 over the final three weeks of the regular season, a couple of teams in front of the Vols lost this past weekend, which should lead to UT climbing at least a couple of spots when the new top 25 is revealed on Tuesday night.

CBS Sports revealed their top 25 prediction on Tuesday morning, and they think Tennessee will climb two spots in this week’s rankings, from No. 25 to No. 23.

There are 13 specific outcomes, in fact, that Vols fans need to root for this weekend that would improve Tennessee’s chances.
