In the current state of college football, this is basically a win-win for everyone associated with UT Vols football regardless of whether we win or lose against Iowa. Like many others have said, it would have been hard for Heup to start 8 in front of Milton. The Vols would very likely have struggled mightily against Iowa's defense (and still may) given what we're able to put on the field after transfers, opt-outs, injuries, etc. 8 gives the Vols a chance to not only win the game but also gain the experience of starting and ending an entire game, on a neutral field, against a talented and recognized program. I love it all, wish Milton the best and am ready to move on to 8, who I am confident is a better fit for Heup's O scheme. GBO! Prediction: Vols 24 Hawkeyes 18.
