Tennessee Volunteer fans felt pretty good about what they were going to do with the so-called invasion of Ohio Stadium for a first-round College Football Playoff matchup on Saturday night against Ohio State.
A blowout 42-17 loss later clearly meant events didn’t go quite according to their plan.
Vols coach Josh Heupel met with the media after the game and was understandably solemn while answering some tough questions. He often credited Ohio State in his postgame comments but also lamented his team’s deficiencies and lack of execution.
In case you missed any of what Heupel said about Ohio State after seeing the team up close, you can catch his entire comments below thanks to the WATE 6 On Your Side YouTube Channel. Heupel discusses the talent on the Buckeyes’ sideline, his team’s injuries and turning the page among other topics.
While the season is over for Tennessee, Ohio State prepares to head to Pasadena to face Oregon in a seemingly traditional quarterfinal Rose Bowl matchup on Jan. 1 at 5 p.m.
We’ll have plenty leading up to that one so come back often.
