Shane Beamer seemingly takes shot at Tennessee following win over Georgia State
Georgia State has caused some problems around the SEC in the few seasons. And by SEC, I mean Tennessee.
The Vols lost their season opener to the Bulldogs in 2019 to kick off Year 2 of the Jeremy Pruitt era. South Carolina, to its credit, avoided the same fate Saturday night by downing the Panthers 35-14.
And head coach Shane Beamer appeared to let Tennessee fans know it in a slight dig at the Volunteers postgame.
Shane Beamer throwing shade at @Vol_Football in his on field post game interview stating “I know other SEC teams have faced this team and aren’t feeling how we are now”. You don’t want that smoke young man .

This isn’t the first time Beamer has brought up Tennessee’s loss to the Panthers.
On SEC teleconference, Shane Beamer says he knows Georgia State will be a challenge for South Carolina because …. Ga State beat Tennessee in 2019 opener.

South Carolina could have a solid squad this season. The pair of 2nd year coaches in Beamer and Josh Heupel face off on Nov. 19.
Tennessee took last year’s bout, 45-20.
