They will play three games during the Shriner's Children College Showdown against Texas Tech, Oklahoma, and Baylor.
The Vols then have some series with plenty of mid-major schools to follow, including UNC Asheville, East Tennessee State, Albany, and High Point.

This includes Xavier, Tennessee Tech, Alabama A&M, Bellarmine, Western Carolina, Lipscomb, Queens College, and Belmont matchups.
The Vols' first SEC series begins March 15th with games against the Alabama Crimson Tide in Tuscaloosa. They go back to the state of Alabama again in April to play at Auburn. They will also play in Nashville's classic in-state rivalry game against the Vanderbilt Commodores. That series begins May 10th.
