Tennessee remained at No. 15 in both the Associated Press Top 25 and AFCA Coaches polls for the third consecutive week following the Volunteers' 56-24 win over UAB.
Tennessee (3-1, 0-1 SEC) plays its first road game of the season next Saturday when it travels to Starkville to face Mississippi State (4-0, 0-0), who is receiving votes in both polls. It's the first meeting between the two teams in Davis Wade Stadium since 2012.
Ten SEC teams are in the polls with three of those 10 still remaining on the Vols' schedule - No. 17/16 Alabama (Oct. 18), No. 7/10 Oklahoma and No. 18/20 Vanderbilt.
Kickoff Saturday in Starkville is 4:15 p.m. ET/3:15 p.m. CT on SEC Network.
