You have to be tough minded to play on the road in the SEC.

They've had discussions about the coming hurricane. Today and tomorrow will stay on schedule. They are keeping an eye on Wednesday and Thursday.

Napier said that the team played well, but they need to continue to trend in the right direction.

 

[Mark Wheeler]

He thinks that they have recruited well on the defensive side of the ball. They anticipated having a chance to be pretty good on defense. They haven't done that, but they took a step in the right direction on Saturday.

 

[Mark Wheeler]

Tennessee is playing well on all three levels of defense.

Napier called the Tennessee quarterback a unicorn.

 

[Mark Wheeler]

Jake Slaughter is an anchor for the offense and the team.

 

[Fun & Gun]
