2024 NCAA Bubble Watch v3.0​




SEC

LOCK — Arkansas, Mississippi State, Auburn, Vanderbilt, South Carolina, Kentucky
BUBBLE — Texas, Georgia, Oklahoma, Tennessee, LSU
DANGER — Texas A&M

Tennessee is slightly better off at eight points in league play so far but is hardly out of the woods yet. None of the remaining opponents is going to be a pushover, especially with three games in seven days. The Vols do have the draw with UCLA and to a lesser extent, Vanderbilt, to boost the resume, but an awful win profile means UT is likely going to be on the outside looking in if they don’t make it to Pensacola. Even if they do, they might need another win to feel some sense of confidence going into selection day.
