2013 Schedule Released...

 The 2013 Tennessee football schedule was released today, and with trips to Oregon, Florida, and Alabama, the road to once again becoming a national power doesn't get any easier for the Volunteers.  Many have been hoping Tennessee would buy their way out of the Oregon game if the SEC were to adopt a 9 game conference schedule.  But at least for 2013, this does not appear to be the case.  The Vols will have two weeks to prepare for their trip to Oregon as they open the season against Austin Peay and then Western Kentucky the following week.  Mississippi State is being replaced on the schedule in favor of Auburn.  The Volunteers will host the Tigers on November 9th.  Tennessee will also make their first SEC trip to Missouri next season on November 2nd.  The Vols will once again play one of the toughest schedules in the nation next year, and the road to the SEC Championship game in Atlanta does not get any easier in 2013.
