Who is the most important player for the Tennessee Volunteers this college football season?
The 2024 college football season is approaching rapidly and the Tennessee Volunteers are on the verge of entering a very exciting season. Nico Iamaelava being the starting quarterback has created a belief that head coach Josh Heupel can get his offense back to the form at it was in 2022. But who is the most important player for the Volunteers this season? Well, one major news outlet took a shot at it.that ranked the 25 most important players in college football this season.
"Sometimes we see a breakthrough coming, other times it comes out of nowhere. Pearce, a three-star true sophomore, exploded onto the scene in 2023, recording 18.5 tackles for loss and 10 sacks. Among players with 200 or more pass-rush attempts, his 20.2% pressure rate ranked third nationally, and his 4.9% havoc rate ranked first. His performance in a win over Iowa in the Citrus Bowl was about as good as you'll ever see.
If there's another level to Pearce Jr. compared to the season he just had in 2023 then by all means he would have a major impact on the outcome of the season and another breakout season. However, the argument could be made that there are other players on the roster who are more important. Because even if Pearce Jr. doesn't necessarily improve that much from last season, he's still a really good and impactful football player.
At the end of the day, it's difficult to narrow that down to just one player. A lot of names will be playing a big role this season for the Volunteers and they as a unit need to breakout more than any individual.
