Coach:
Phillip Fulmer enters his 16th season at Knoxville. An impressive run, ups and downs included.

Last year:
9-4. Two of the Vols' regular-season losses (Florida and LSU) came by a total of only five points. The team fell to Penn State 20-10 in the Outback Bowl.

Offense: Fulmer will do everything he can to maximize the skill and experience of quarterback Eric Ainge, whose 67 percent completion mark in 2006 was a Tennessee record. The Vols' wide receivers are unproven, but Chris Brown and Brad Cottam are excellent and experienced tight ends.

Defense: Six starters are gone from last year, including three in the secondary. Some players who were redshirted last season will get their opportunity this year. Britton Colquitt, the fourth Colquitt to punt for Tennessee, is one of the best in the nation.

Schedule: More difficult than last season's, with road games at California, Florida and Alabama.

Prediction: 8-4
