Game Week: Western Carolina

For one half of Saturday’s 31-24 double-overtime loss to Oklahoma, Tennessee looked like a top ten football team.

But then things went downhill for the Vols. Tennessee blew a 17-point lead to the Sooners, and fell to 1-1 on the year.

The Vols will get a chance to bounce back against FCS foe Western Carolina this weekend. Here is the rundown on Tennessee third game of the season:
