November 23, 2025 | Football
KNOXVILLE, Tenn. – A top-20 regular season finale showdown awaits as SEC Network's SEC Nation Presented by T-Mobile will originate from Ayres Hall Saturday on the Tennessee campus prior to No. 12 Vanderbilt and No. 18 Tennessee squaring off in Neyland Stadium.
Kickoff is 3:30 p.m. ET on ESPN from Neyland Stadium, which is sold out for the 27th consecutive game.
Laura Rutledge hosts SEC Nation, and she is joined by Paul Finebaum, Roman Harper, Jordan Rodgers and Tim Tebow for a weekly breakdown of the SEC football action to come from 10 a.m.-noon Saturday.
Additionally, Marty & McGee Presented by Old Trapper will be live on Saturday morning from 9-10 a.m., as Marty Smith and Tennessee alum Ryan McGee meet at the intersection of southern lifestyle and college football to bring viewers the latest headlines.
Ayres Hall will also be home to The Paul Finebaum Show Presented by Johnsonville from 3-7 p.m. Friday.
SEC Nation will originate from the Tennessee campus for the 13th time. The Volunteers opened the season with the show on hand in Atlanta for their Aflac Kickoff Game win over Syracuse.
Tennessee (8-3, 4-3 SEC) and Vanderbilt (9-2, 5-2) are facing off with both teams ranked at the time of the meeting for the first time. It will be the 119th all-time meeting between the two in-state foes.
The Vols are coming off a dominant, 31-11 triumph at Florida, tying for their largest margin of victory in the Swamp all-time. That matched the 20-0 win in Gainesville on Nov. 12, 1955.
