There's no game for Tennessee football on Saturday, but it's still been quite the week for the program with the Vols facing the reality of being out of College Football Playoff contention after the loss to Oklahoma. GoVols247's Ben McKee and Patrick Brown came together for a big-picture discussion on the state of Tennessee football coming off its third loss of the season and the discourse surrounding head coach Josh Heupel. This week has seen the discourse on Heupel and the Vols range from frustration and anger to comments from former players denigrating Heupel's outlook on Rocky Top. Then you have Kirk Herbstreit calling out Tennessee fans who want Heupel gone (there aren't many, but there are some) and saying the Vols need to lock him down for the long term. As if that wasn't enough, one national columnist thinks Heupel should leave Tennessee and go to Penn State. What do make of all of that? More importantly, what does Tennessee need to do over its final three games to salvage this season? And what changes do Heupel and the Vols need to make in the offseason to maintain their success and get over the hump to true championship contention? We discuss it all.
