There are probably bowl projections from nearly every site out there, but I just found a few of the national ones. And yes, there is still so much football to be played that these can, and will, change by season’s end. But since all of them are consistent with where Louisville will land, I thought it was worth passing along.

After Saturday, the Vols finish with the underwhelming slate of South Carolina, Tennessee Tech, Kentucky, Missouri and Vanderbilt. They should get to 10 wins and a likely Top 10 ranking regardless of whether they beat Alabama this week.
