The Tennessee Vols are continuing to mostly fly under the radar.

Tennessee moved up to No. 11 in this week’s AP Top 25 poll following a 34-31 win against the Arkansas Razorbacks.

The Vols are 5-1 on the season with their lone loss coming to the Georgia Bulldogs in overtime last month.

CBS Sports revealed their latest college football power rankings on Monday and they moved Tennessee up one spot.

The Vols are now No. 10 in CBS Sports’ power rankings, one spot below the Oregon Ducks and one spot above the LSU Tigers.

“It’s not easy getting a good read on these Volunteers,” wrote CBS Sports’ Brandon Marcello. “They should have beaten Georgia but lost in overtime. They led Arkansas by 17 and then had to hold on for a 34-31 win, during which they recovered three fumbles from the Razorbacks. The rushing attack is ramping up, which is a good sign. DeSean Bishop (146 yards) led a 264-yard outing.”

Tennessee has a chance to make a big statement this upcoming weekend when they travel to Tuscaloosa for a showdown against the Alabama Crimson Tide.

The Vols have won two of the last three against Bama. Tennessee, however, hasn’t won in Tuscaloosa since 2003.
