Tennessee is two weeks into fall camp and have had one major scrimmage.
“Offensively and defensively, really good day. I think we got out relatively clean today too, which is important,” Josh Heupel said. “I thought defensively, great energy and great effort, in particular really early in the scrimmage. They did a great job against the run early too and got off the field on some third downs. Offensively, we created some plays on the back half of the scrimmage within the run game, and we had a couple plays in the pass game too. All in all, it was a really good day. We have a lot ahead of us. We have to grow. That starts this afternoon when they come back to us. All in all, really excited about what happened today.”
The Vols return to practice tomorrow and will hold their next scrimmage on Wednesday.
Tennessee returns to Neyland Stadium for their home opener on Sept. 9 vs. Austin Peay for a 5 p.m. ET kickoff on ESPN+/SEC Network+.
Tennessee’s SEC opener will take place one week later in the swamp against Florida where the Vols are looking for their first win in Gainesville since 2003.
