Dana Holgorsen took the podium today at Big 12 Media Days, and he had a few things to say about how unfair his 2018 schedule was. Is Holgorsen a comedian or football coach?
His Mountaineers take on the Vols in the first game of the season on September 1st. Which is nothing new for the Tennessee football program. The past few years have brought big games against power five opponents within the first two games of the season.
Remember last year, Georiga Tech took Tennessee into overtime. And, in 2016 the Virginia Tech game wasn’t the opening game of the season, but it was a power five opponent in the second game of the season.
