Tennessee Volunteers Injury Report:

  • Emmanuel Okoye, DL (OUT): It was announced earlier this week that Okoye would have to miss the remainder of the 2024 season due to injury
  • Rickey Gibson (Probable): Gibson missed last weekend's game due to a slight hamstring injury but it sounds like he is going to be good to go for Saturday.

The line opened at 5.5 in favor of Tennessee, it started at 7.5 this week and now it has climbed up to a 9-point spread ahead of Saturday.
