In a stunning upset, Josh Heupel led the Tennessee Volunteers to a 25-15 victory over the No. 15 Oklahoma Sooners on the road. After a strong first half performance, Heupel praised his team’s defense and dialed back the offense in the second half. Freshman quarterback Nico Iamaleava has been a standout player for the Volunteers, throwing for 892 yards and seven touchdowns in the first four games of the season. The win over the Sooners has bolstered Tennessee’s College Football Playoff resume, with some experts now considering them a serious contender. The Volunteers have also defeated Chattanooga, NC State, and Kent State, and have upcoming games against Arkansas, Florida, and No. 4 Alabama. Heupel’s team has a chance to continue their momentum and climb in the rankings with these upcoming matchups.
