Tennessee Football

Football betting is king in the US, and it’s no different with Tennessee football. This means you’ll find the most variety when it comes to betting on Vols football compared to other sports. In addition to your standard bets, you’ll find team-level game props you can wager on before kickoff. 

Because of the popularity, you’ll also find betting markets released far earlier than other Vols sports. As an example, FanDuel Sportsbook TN already has a handful of game lines available in March, as well as MVP and championship odds.
