Josh Heupel kicks off Tennessee-South Carolina game week
Josh Heupel previews Tennessee playing at South Carolina in Week 8.
In a Week 8 matchup, No. 11 Tennessee (6-1, 3-1 SEC) is scheduled to host South Carolina (3-3, 1-3 SEC) at Williams-Brice Stadium in Columbia, South Carolina, with a kickoff at 3:30 p.m. EDT. ESPN will broadcast the game, with Wes Durham handling the play-by-play, Dusty Dvoracek as the analyst, and Taylor McGregor covering the sidelines.
Tennessee head coach Josh Heupel discussed the game on Monday, acknowledging the challenge ahead. "Going to South Carolina this week, facing a football team that's playing really well," he remarked. "You look at their ability to go on the road two weeks ago against Florida and come away with the win, played extremely well all three phases of the football game."
Heupel emphasized the importance of preparation, noting the impact of South Carolina's bye week. "Understand the environment, what we're getting into, and we need to prepare, be elite in our preparation. You know, them having a BYE week last week, an extra week on us, we got to make up that ground in our preparation and practice well to get ready and go play smart football on the road here to get a win."
