In this story:

The Tennessee Volunteers are seen as a fringe College Football Playoff program heading into the 2024 season by major oddsmakers, and that trend is continuing into spring practices. BetOnline set their odds for the 2024 CFP, and the Vols are tied for the 12th-best odds with Arizona and Penn State.

Tennessee comes in ahead of several notable programs, including Alabama, LSU, Missouri, Notre Dame, and USC. They have the fourth-best odds of making the CFP out of any program in the SEC. Georgia, Ole Miss, and Texas were the three other SEC schools in the top 12.

Head coach Josh Heupel has now had two full signing classes of prospects whom he developed relationships with over time. The roster is turning over, and the window is now for Tennessee to make big national noise. Quarterback Nico Iamaleava also plays into these expectations, and the vibes are high on Rocky Top currently.
