You’re Going To Look Up At Midseason And Tennessee Is Going To Be 7-0 Says Miles Kitselman

By Cody McClure

You’ve gotta love the confidence from Vols senior tight end Miles Kitselman.

We may not have gotten any fun quotes from Josh Heupel today, but Kitselman was happy to make a few headlines.

"There's a lot of people that don't expect anything out of us, and I absolutely love that,” he said at SEC Media Days in Atlanta. “You guys are going to look up at midseason and go, 'Tennessee is 7-0. They're doing it.'"

Hell yeah. Keep disrespecting the Big Orange, media.

Many people forget this is a team comprised of several guys who beat Alabama and made the College Football Playoff last season.

A 7-0 start to this season would include a home win vs. Georgia and another win over Alabama. I think we’d all sign up for that.

I’d probably also go ahead and pencil in that 8th win against Kentucky too. ;)

Who needs a quarterback when you’ve got a tight end like Kitselman?

Tennessee TE Miles Kitselman has a message for anybody who might be sleeping on the Vols. "There's a lot of people that don't expect anything out of us, and I absolutely love that. You guys are going to look up at midseason and go, 'Tennessee is 7-0. They're doing it.' "
