Tennessee Football’s win total is set at 8.5 for the 2025 season, according to odds released recently from FanDuel. It’s down from 9.5 before Nico Iamaleava’s transfer and is the fourth-highest total in the SEC, trailing only Texas, Georgia and Alabama at 9.5.

The updated win total for Tennessee is higher than six of the eight SEC opponents the Vols will face this season.

Florida’s win total is 7.5, ahead of Oklahoma at 6.5 and Arkansas at 5.5. Kentucky and Vanderbilt are both set at 4.5, while Mississippi State is 3.5.

The Vols are +3300 to win the national championship, with 11 teams having better odds. Tennessee has the sixth best odds to win the SEC at +1300.

Georgia is +700 to win the national title, behind both Texas and Ohio State at +600, and the Bulldogs are +350 to win the SEC. Alabama is +1300, tied for sixth-lowest odds for the national title, and is +500 to win the SEC. LSU is +950 to win the SEC and Ole Miss is +1000

Texas, which is not on Tennessee’s 2025 schedule, is both the national title favorite, tied with Ohio State at +600, and the SEC championship favorite at +300.

Syracuse, Tennessee’s season opener on Auguste 30, has a win total set at 5.5, with +40000 odds to win the national title. The Vols are a 12.5-point favorite against Syracuse, after they were a 13.5-point favorite when the line was initially released in January. 

New Tennessee quarterback Joey Aguilar, who replaced Nico Iamaleava after Iamaleava’s transfer to UCLA, is +4500 in Heisman Trophy odds, while Iamaleava is +8000. 

UCLA is +1300 to win the Big Ten, 13th-best in the league, is +40000 to win the national championship and has a win total of 5.5.
