Tennessee Vols coach Josh Heupel has sparked controversy ahead of the first-ever College Football Playoff game at Ohio Stadium, labeling the Ohio State Buckeyes’ defense as “overhyped.”
Heupel’s bold statement has raised eyebrows, as the Buckeyes’ defense has been touted as one of the best in the country. However, Heupel remains unfazed, citing his team’s impressive offensive performances this season.
“We’ve faced some really good defenses this year, and I think our offense is more than capable of moving the ball against Ohio State,” Heupel said confidently.
“We’re going to come at them with a lot of different looks and try to exploit some of the weaknesses we’ve identified on film.”
Heupel’s comments are sure to add fuel to the fire ahead of the highly anticipated matchup. The Vols, led by quarterback Hendon Hooker, will look to pull off a major upset against the second-seeded Buckeyes. As the two teams prepare to clash in the CFP, fans can expect a thrilling contest that will keep them on the edge of their seats.
