Tennessee made its College Football Playoff debut in late December against Ohio State. The Vols, at the time, seemed undaunted by the frigid Columbus, Ohio, weather as they took the field for warmups sans shirts.

During a NFL Draft conversation with Jon Gruden, Ohio State quarterback Will Howard ridiculed Tennessee players for a pre-game stunt in December.

Will Howard is entering the 2025 NFL draft after a very successful one-year stint at Ohio State in which he threw for 4,010 yards and 35 touchdowns en route to winning the national championship. He's now going through the draft process and with a few weeks to go before the big event is seen as a possible Day 2 pick.
