The Tennessee Volunteers are set to launch their sixth season on Saturday with a homecoming showdown against Furman University at Neyland Stadium, a venue that has enjoyed a sellout streak extending back to 2022.
The series between the two programs currently stands at 2‑0 in favor of Tennessee, with the Volunteers securing a 52‑7 victory in 1942 and a 32‑6 win in 1941, the earliest meeting dating back to 1941.
A Tradition of Uniforms
This year’s contest will feature the Volunteers’ classic uniform combination of white helmets, orange jerseys and white pants, a look that pays homage to the program’s storied history while drawing attention from fans and media alike.
Kickoff is scheduled for 3:30 p.m. EDT, and the game will be broadcast on SEC Network+ with a broadcast team that includes Richard Cross, Max Starks and Ashlyn Sullivan.
Under head coach Josh Heupel, the Volunteers enter their sixth season, aiming to build on recent success and keep the program’s reputation for strong home performances alive.
The Sellout Streak
Neyland Stadium’s sellout streak, now in its 28th consecutive year, underscores the enduring popularity of Tennessee football and the draw of a high‑profile opener against a long‑time opponent.
