Tennessee announced Tuesday that seven games have been added to future football schedules.

The Vols added UTEP in 2018 while adding Chattanooga and UAB in 2019. Charlotte was added to the 2020 schedule, Bowling Green to 2021 and Ball State and Army for 2022.

Tennessee now has its non-conference schedule complete for both 2017 and 2018 with the Vols set to face Georgia Tech (in the new Mercedes-Benz Stadium), Indiana State, UMASS and Southern Miss in 2017. In 2018, Tennessee will begin its season in Charlotte playing West Virginia and its non-conference schedule will be rounded out by ETSU, UTEP and Charlotte.
