"Looking forward to seeing all of our fans inside the stadium. It's been a long time. Unique kickoff time for us. Look forward to seeing everybody at the Vol Walk at 10:30. You guys know this week we'll wear the Smokey Grey and wear those for this design for the first time. Facing a Chattanooga team that's a really good opponent, preseason ranked top-10 in their division. Return a lot of really good players. At the end of the day this is the first step in our journey. I look forward to going and competing with this group."The Vols are ranked No. 15 in both of the preseason polls and were picked to finish seventh in the expanded 16-team SEC. The Mocs, who are ranked No. 8 in the FCS preseason Coaches poll, are projected to win the SoCon after reaching the second round of the FCS playoffs last season."Veteran quarterback that's played at a really high level," Heupel said about the Mocs. "Smart with football. Playmakers out on the outside. For us offensively, looking at them, they have explosive playmakers up front and you gotta do a really good job handling the line of scrimmage."Tennessee and Chattanooga are squaring off for the 44th time and just the third time in the last 54 years (since 1970). The two teams played each other every year from1945-64. This is the 35th meeting between the two in Knoxville. The Vols lead the all-time series with the Mocs, 39-2-2.The Volunteers have won 10 in a row over the Mocs dating back to 1959. UTC's only two victories in the series occurred on Nov. 8, 1958 (14-6 in Knoxville) and on Dec. 3, 1905 (5-0 in Chattanooga).
