Vols ranked in first Amway Coaches Poll

The first Amway Coaches Poll was released this morning and Tennessee is ranked No. 25. 

HOW THE POLL WORKS

The Amway Coaches Poll is conducted weekly throughout the regular season using a panel of head coaches at FBS schools. The panel is chosen by random draw, conference by conference plus independents, from a pool of coaches who have indicated to the American Football Coaches Association their willingness to participate. Each coach submits a Top 25 with a first-place vote worth 25 points, second place 24, and so on down to one point for 25th.

A total of eight Southeastern Conference schools are ranked in the Top 25: Alabama, Auburn, Georgia, LSU, Ole Miss, Arkansas, Missouri and Tennessee.
