Kerbyson attended the University of Tennessee from 2011–2015 under head coaches Derek Dooley and Butch Jones.[2][3] He redshirted as a freshman in the 2011 season.[4] In the 2012 season, he made his collegiate debut against Georgia State and appeared in seven games.[2] In the 2013 season, he appeared in 12 games in a backup role on the offensive line.[2] Due to massive offseason losses to the offensive line to the 2014 NFL draft, Kerbyson was forced into a leadership role.[5] He started all 13 games at three different spots, right tackle, left tackle, and left guard, in 2014 for the Volunteers.[2] In his final collegiate season in 2015, he started in all 13 games and helped block for one of the most productive offenses in Tennessee history.[2]
