Tennessee Volunteer fans were pretty sure what they were going to do with the so-called invasion of Ohio Stadium for a college football first-round playoff game Saturday night against Ohio State. A tough 17:42 defeat later followed and things didn’t quite go according to plan.

Vols head coach Josh Heupel met with the media after the game and was understandably solemn as he listened to the music and answered some tough questions. In his postgame comments, he frequently praised Ohio State, but also lamented his team’s deficiencies and lack of execution that led to his team’s demise.

In case you missed any of what Heupel said about Ohio State after watching the team front and center, you can check out all of his comments below thanks to YouTube channel WATE 6 On Your Side. As you watch and listen, you can hear Heupel talk about the talent on the Buckeyes’ sideline, his team’s injuries, turning the page and more.

While Tennessee’s season is now over, Ohio State is now beginning preparations to travel to Pasadena to face Oregon in what appears to be a traditional quarterfinal Rose Bowl matchup against Oregon on January 1st.

There will be a lot to do beforehand, so come back often.
