Coming off their first loss of the season, Tennessee will head back home to take on Furman in what should be a comfortable win for the Volunteers.

The game will get off to a shaky start with Furman scoring the first touchdown to take a 7-0 lead, but Tennessee will take a 24-7 advantage into halftime and coast to the end of the game with another comfortable victory. Jarrett Guarantano will have another confidence-boosting game heading into a critical Week 4 matchup with Florida.

Final Score: Furman 14, Tennessee 41 (2-1)

Conference play begins with one of the toughest matchups out there. The rivalry between Florida and Tennessee has been heating up over the years and this will be one of its best games.

The game will be back and forth all afternoon long with the two teams trading touchdowns until the fourth quarter when the Gators score with under five minutes left to take a one-score lead and then they come up with a big stop on the other end to seal the victory.

Tennessee shows that it’s not too far behind from contending in the SEC in this one.

Final Score: Florida 35, Tennessee 28 (2-2, 0-1 SEC)
