Will Tennessee make a bowl game? ESPN’s FPI predicts last 2 games of season for Vols

The Tennessee Volunteers are now 5-5 on the season after suffering a home loss to No. 1 Georgia on Saturday evening.
But, there’s no reason to despair on Rocky Top, as the Vols still have 2 games left to try to earn a bowl berth.
So, what does ESPN’s Football Power Index (FPI) think of the Vols’ chances to pick up a sixth win? Per FPI, the Vols’ last 2 games are incredibly winnable:
- Nov. 20 vs. South Alabama — 93.8% chance to win
- Nov. 27 vs. Vanderbilt — 97.3% chance to win
So, there you have it. It would be pretty surprising if the Vols didn’t make it to a bowl game this year.
Both of their remaining games are winnable, so it’s fair for fans to expect a 7-5 record by the end of the regular season.
