W. Carolina-Tennessee Preview

KNOXVILLE, Tenn. (AP) The Tennessee Volunteers insist they aren't dwelling on last week's overtime loss to Oklahoma or looking ahead to next week's Southeastern Conference opener at Florida. The Vols say all their attention is on Western Carolina.

''Our team understands every game's important,'' Tennessee quarterback Joshua Dobbs said. ''We've got to be thankful for each opportunity to step on the field, and you can't look ahead to other opponents. We know to focus on this week's task. Florida will come when it will come.''

Auburn already showed Tennessee (1-1) the danger in overlooking a Football Championship Subdivision opponent.
