National media outlet massively disrespects Tennessee Vols ahead of huge showdown against Oklahoma Sooners

The Tennessee Vols were hit with a massive dose of disrespect by CBS Sports after the program's 71-0 win against the Kent State Golden Flashes on Saturday night in Knoxville.

CBS Sports' Jerry Palm revealed his latest bowl game projections on Sunday morning and despite the Vols' historic start to the 2024 season (they've outscored their opponents 191-13 through three games), he has Tennessee playing Arizona in the Las Vegas Bowl.

It gets worse.

While Palm has the Vols missing the playoff, he has programs like Iowa State, Penn State, Oklahoma State, and Kansas State making the playoff via at-large bids.

What are we doing Jerry?!?!?!

This Tennessee team doesn't need any extra motivation -- they proved that on Saturday with the way they performed against Kent State in a game that was never remotely close.

But like former LSU quarterback Joe Burrow says , if motivation is there, you might as well use it. And Tennessee should certainly take notice that there are folks in the national media who still don't believe in the Volunteers.

Tennessee will take on the Oklahoma Sooners next Saturday night in Norman.

Either he’s horrible at his job, or he’s being dishonest because he’s a Vol hater! There really are no other options! Out of all the top ten teams the Vols have better stats than all of them but they are the only ones he doesn’t have on the playoff list! Not only that but he also has teams not in the top 12 right now picked to go! If it looks like a rat and makes playoff picks like a rat then it must be a rat!
