Tennessee head coach Josh Heupel met with members of the local media Monday afternoon to tie a bow on the win over Texas A&M and to look ahead to the Third Saturday in October for the latest rendition of Tennessee and Alabama.

“Proud of our football team, the way they played and competed. Physical football game. But the resiliency, the ability to continue to just play the next play, I’m really proud of that. A lot of really positive things and things that we got to clean up before we get to this weekend in Tuscaloosa,” Heupel opened his news conference with. “Really good (Alabama) football team that we’re playing. They’re playing well, all three phases of the football game. Their quarterback (Jalen Milroe is) playing extremely well, been accurate with football down the field. Obviously he’s extremely dynamic with his feet as well. Defensively, they’re creating a bunch of negative plays, quarterback sacks and tackles for loss. And special teams are, are really good. So a huge test for us. One that we’ll be excited for and gotta get focused on our preparation here this week.”

The Vols returned to the facility Monday morning to watch the tape and close the book on the Aggies. Tennessee will hit the practice field for the first time on the week Tuesday morning and begin preparation for the Crimson Tide for this weekend.
