Tennessee returns home after going 8-0 at Neyland last season

Tennessee went a perfect 8-0 at home last season, including wins over Florida and Alabama, and is currently riding a nine-game win streak at Neyland Stadium. The Vols opened the 2023 regular-season schedule with a neutral-site win over Virginia.

“I look forward to seeing a 102,000 of our closest friends here on Saturday evening,” Tennessee coach Josh Heupel said during his weekly press conference on Monday. “For our program, it’s been a long time since we’ve been inside that stadium with our fans and look forward to that. For a lot of our guys, it’s the first opportunity that they’re gonna have to drive by Vol Navy, walk in front of 40,000 fans in the Vol Walk before the game and run out (in front of) 102,000. 

“So looking forward to that. This week, good opponent in Austin Peay, excited about us going into week two, just continuing our football journey, continuing to get better here as we go through the season.”

Austin Peay opened its season last week with a 49-23 loss at Southern Illinois.

“Defensively gotta handle tempo,” Heupel said Monday when asked about the Austin Peay scouting report. “They’ll spread the football field, RPO game. We gotta do a really good job on perimeter screens, defeat blocks and make tackles in space. Line of scrimmage will be everything for us. Offensively going to have to have balance and be able to run football and throw football directly down field off of all that that. Nothing different than who we are.”
