Sixth-year Tennessee head coach Josh Heupel previewed the contest on Monday.

"Obviously, going to South Carolina this week, facing a football team that's playing really well," Heupel said. "You look at their ability to go on the road two weeks ago against Florida and come away with the win, played extremely well all three phases of the the football game.

"Understand the environment, what we're getting into and we need to prepare, be elite in our preparation. You know, them having a BYE week last week, an extra week on us, we got to make up that ground in our our preparation and practice well to get ready and go play smart football on the road here to get a win."
