Tennessee Volunteers
Tennessee's top projected fantasy scorer for the 2026 season is DeSean Bishop, a RB projected for 233.9 points (overall rank #16 among every FBS draftable player on the board). Across its top 10 board-ranked players, Tennessee projects for 1024.8 combined fantasy points — 61.8 points below the SEC median of 1086.6, ranking #11 of 16 in the conference. Its deepest position group is running backs, worth 407.6 combined projected points from 6 rostered players.
The SEC is one of the sport's four power conferences. Saturday Night Showdown carries live projections and a full draft board for all 138 FBS programs — power-conference and Group of Five alike.
Projected points and board slot are Saturday Night Showdown's own 2026 season-long projections and value-based draft board, generated before Week 0 kicks off — not stats from games already played, and not an average of real-world draft results.
