Southeastern 16’s Jay Greeson and Chris Lee preview Tennessee football for the 2025 college football season. Topics include:

In case you haven’t heard, the Vols have a quarterback change, with Joey Aguilar slated to lead the offense.

Tennessee has used three running backs effectively throughout Josh Heupel’s career; this year, the Vols return the productive duo of DeSean Bishop and Peyton Lewis and add Duke’s Star Thomas in an attempt to replace SEC Player of the Year Dylan Sampson.

The Vols don’t return a lot of production at wide receiver, but former blue-chip recruit Mike Matthews could have a breakthrough season and tight end Miles Kitselman is a good one.

Tennessee added transfers Wendell Moe (Arizona) and Sam Pendleton (Notre Dame) to talented left tackle Lance Heard, who returns.

The Vols lost James Pearce Jr. but return a lot of what was a deep front seven last year, with Joshua Josephs, Bryson Eason and Arion Carter leading the way.

On the back end, All-American Jermod McCoy, Rickey Gibson and the versatile Boo Carter give Tennessee play-makers there, too.

Coach Josh Heupel has always gotten the most out of his rosters. With one of the league’s easier schedules, are 10 wins attainable again?
