Tennessee got back on track over the weekend, beating UTSA 45-14 to move to 3-1 on the season. Now the Volunteers are set to take on the biggest stretch of the season, starting with South Carolina this weekend in Knoxville.
The Gamecocks ruined Tennessee’s season last November, upsetting the Volunteers in Columbia to put the final nail in the coffin of Tennessee’s College Football Playoff hopes. South Carolina quarterback Spencer Rattler had the game of his life, throwing for 438 yards and powering the Gamecocks to a 63-35 victory.
Needless to say, Tennessee has likely had South Carolina’s return trip to Knoxville circled on the calendar ever since.
