The Tennessee Volunteers head to Nashville this weekend to take on the Vanderbilt Commodores. The Commodores have been one of the SEC's many "Upset Worthy" football teams this season. Having already knocked off Alabama early in the season, Vanderbilt is (6-5) with several upset wins in conference.

Tennessee is now firmly entrenched in the College Football Playoff discussion after what was an extremely hectic weekend of SEC play, with Alabama, Ole Miss, and Texas A&M taking losses. Here's what the computer models say about this weekend's matchup with Vanderbilt.

With a win over Vanderbilt this weekend, they have a 93% chance of making the playoffs. A loss would almost certainly knock them out of playoff contention, however.
