Josh Heupel discusses return to Oklahoma

One of the most anticipated games of the season has arrived. Former Oklahoma quarterback and offensive coordinator Josh Heupel will lead his Tennessee Volunteers into his old stomping grounds on Saturday, looking to inch one step closer to a potential bid in the College Football Playoff.

Heupel, who led the Sooners to a National Championship as a quarterback, spent several seasons under Bob Stoops as an assistant coach at Oklahoma. His time with the program ended back in 2014, as Stoops cleaned house after a disappointing season.

That move sent Heupel to Utah State, then to Missouri as an offensive coordinator.
