The Tennessee Volunteers have a shot to make a run at the CFP in 2024, but they could be a year away from a truly special title run in Knoxville.
The Tennessee Volunteers are playoff contenders in 2024. Let's start this column with that first and foremost. They have one of the nation's best pass rushers on a defense that finished inside the top-25 a year ago. They have an offense that is seemignly guranteed to be in the top-3 in rushing, and is expected to be considerably better at quarterback this fall with Nico Iamaleava stepping into a starting role after. Things are good in Knoxville, Tennessee.
However, when you look at the landscape of college football, it's Tennessee who's set up for a potential title run in 2025. After all, it's a quarterback led sport, and it's the Vols that have a known two-year run at the position with Nico.Those aren't just great quarterbacks, those are national title-contending teams, all of which enter 2024's season with higher odds than the Vols to compete for a national title this fall.
It's not just about the quarterback either at Tennessee. By the time 2025 rolls around, sure you'll be replacing James Pearce Jr. But you'll be doing so with a sophomore former five-star talent in Jordan Ross. Year two of five-star wide receiver Mike Matthews and four-star WR Braylon Staley. Compete for a 2024 shot at the College Football Playoff because your roster is top-12 caliber, but if you believe this sport provides special windows of true opportunities at national titles, 2025 appears to be that window based on the happenings around the sport.You can follow us for future coverage by clicking "Follow" on the top right-hand corner of the page.
