National media outlet predicts where Tennessee Vols will land in AP Top 25 after win against Alabama

The Tennessee Vols took down the Alabama Crimson Tide on Saturday night in Knoxville to move to 6-1 on the season.

Tennessee entered the weekend as the No. 11 team in the nation in the AP Top 25 poll.

Vols fans, however, probably shouldn’t expect Tennessee to make a big jump in the new top 25.

247Sports has the Vols moving up just one spot to No. 10 in their AP Top 25 poll prediction .

On3, meanwhile, doesn’t have the Vols moving up at all. They have Tennessee staying at No. 11 despite their win against a top 10 opponent.

From On3 : After being held scoreless for the third-consecutive first half (something that hasn’t happened since 1963), Tennessee’s offense awoke in the third quarter to rally the Vols to a 24-17 win over arch-rival Alabama. Nico Iamaleava was dreadful for much of the game (two first half interceptions, multiple overthrows), but he hit a couple big sideline shots including the go-ahead touchdown to Chris Brazzell with just under six minutes left in the fourth quarter. Once again, tailback Dylan Sampson put the Vols’ sputtering offense on his back, rushing for 100 yards and two scores on 18 carries after halftime.
