Prior to this weekend’s Week 11 schedule, the College Football Playoff committee unveiled its initial Playoff rankings. In the original rankings, Tennessee was predicted to rank around No. 10, but they ended up in a significantly higher position.
Tennessee has the opportunity to host a first-round match in the newly expanded 12-team College Football Playoff because they are placed No. 7 in the initial CFP rankings. According to the original rankings, Tennessee would host Indiana in the first-round contest.
In front of a large audience at Neyland Stadium, this game would be electrifying. One of the finest first-round matchups is created by Tennessee’s outstanding defence and Indiana’s potent offence.
In the first season under head coach Curt Cignetti, Indiana is among the top collegiate football teams.
He has quickly improved the team’s performance, which presents a fascinating matchup against one of the nation’s top defences. No. 10 Notre Dame vs. No. 7 Penn State, No. 11 Alabama vs. Texas, and No. 12 Boise State vs. No. 5 Ohio State are among the other first-round matches.
BYU is the fourth seed, Miami is the third, Georgia is the second, and Oregon is the first.
This possible game is highlighted by Tennessee’s defence and Indiana’s offence. Hoosier football’s perspective has been totally altered by Cignetti’s explosive offence.
The Vols’ offence, led by redshirt freshman quarterback Nico Iamaleava, has struggled this season despite Tennessee’s reputation for having a strong offence. Although there have been noticeable offensive difficulties, the Vols’ offence has gradually begun to improve every week.
