Thursday will bring the Thanksgiving holiday and Tennessee coach Josh Heupel was in a festive mood at his weekly press conference Monday.

The 1st-year Volunteers head coach opened his remarks by wishing everyone in attendance a Happy Thanksgiving and went on to say that he would be having a number of players who wouldn’t be able to make it home for the holiday over to his house Thursday.

Heupel also said that Saturday’s regular season finale at home against Vanderbilt would be emotional, as all Senior Days are.

He added that he was especially proud of how well the seniors on this team bought in when he came in as the new coach.

Tennessee’s game with Vanderbilt on Saturday is set for 3:45 p.m. EST and will be televised by the SEC Network
