In this story:

The Tennessee Volunteers' second game of the 2024 season will be an evening kickoff against the North Carolina State Wolfpack.

The Tennessee Volunteers will once again have a game on a neutral site field this year against the North Carolina State Wolfpack in Charlotte, North Carolina. The two sides will meet at Bank of America Stadium on September 7 for the second game of Tennessee's season.

The two sides now also have a time for that game; on Wednesday, they announced the kickoff time for 7:30 PM EST on ABC. It'll be the national audience's first look at the Vols since they throttled the Iowa Hawkeyes in the Cheez-It Citrus Bowl; it also allows another big spotlight on quarterback Nico Iamaleava, one of the most tantalizing prospects in the sport.

North Carolina State is a draw in their own right; they went 9-4 last season and had a sparkling 6-2 record in ACC play. There's a lot at stake for both sides in an early season matchup that could help either side set the tone for the next few months.
