COLLEGE STATION, TX − The next stop on Tennessee football's College Football Playoff hunt is Kyle Field to play Texas A&M.

No. 9 Tennessee (7-2, 5-2 SEC) faces the Aggies (4-5, 1-5) on Nov. 14 (3 p.m. ET, ESPN).

The Vols are contending for a playoff berth after last week's 34-6 win over Kentucky that boosted them to No. 8 in the CFP rankings. It was their second win over a team in the current 12-team field, the other coming against Alabama on Oct. 17.

Tennessee is in this position on the back of its defense, one of the nation's best. It leads the SEC in sacks (39) and is second in scoring (15.1 points allowed per game).

On offense, the Vols have relied on running back DeSean Bishop, who they launched a Heisman Trophy campaign for this week. George MacIntyre will start at quarterback but freshman Faizon Brandon also appeared in select moments in the last game.
