NORMAN, Okla. -- The emotion in his voice and on his face said it all for Tennessee coach Josh Heupel late Saturday night in his much anticipated return to his alma mater.

Heupel, who 10 years earlier was stung by his firing as Oklahoma's offensive coordinator, said repeatedly that the No. 6 Vols' 25-15 win over the No. 15 Sooners was "never about me" in a game that saw Tennessee build a 22-3 lead going into the fourth quarter and dominate defensively the whole way.
