Missouri @ Tennessee -16

Saturday — 3:30 pm et (CBS)

This is a big game for Tennessee on several different levels.

For one, it’s senior day. It’ll be the last home game for a lot of guys from Butch Jones’ first signing class, such as senior quarterback Josh Dobbs.

It’ll also probably be the last home game for likely NFL bound juniors like defensive end Derek Barnett and running back Alvin Kamara.

Of course the real importance of this game is Tennessee’s SEC East title hopes. In order for the Vols to win the SEC East they have to win out and hope for a Florida loss against LSU.

Tennessee should win this game pretty handily. Missouri’s pass defense isn’t very good and their rush defense is even worse.

It could end up being a very special final home game for Josh Dobbs.

Prediction: Tennessee 31 Missouri 17
