Tennessee got their 2023 season off to a solid start last weekend, taking care of business against Virginia, 49-13. It wasn’t perfect out of the gates, with some inaccurate balls from Joe Milton, drops from the receivers and some special teams blunders. However, they eventually got it all clicking to run away with it.
Now they’ll have another week to iron some things out before the stakes get raised. Tennessee has a tune-up game this weekend, set to host Austin Peay before SEC play begins. The Governors dropped their opener against Southern Illinois, 49-23. One year ago, Austin Peay finished with a 7-4 record.
