Newsflash, everybody. Upsets happen. And they happen in every sport. Tennessee football is not the first and will not be the last team to suffer a horrible upset to open the season. And if they turn things around to have a good season, they won’t be the first or last team to do that either.
Yes, there is reason to panic after losing to a Sun Belt team that went 2-10 last year. And it’s even worse because the game wasn’t even as close as it looked. But that does not mean that Jeremy Pruitt’s second season is now a complete loss.
