Josh Heupel, Tennessee get roasted in Vols loss to Pittsburgh

Josh Heupel began his Tennessee head-coaching career with his first win. He followed it with his first loss.

The Vols fell to 1-1 on Saturday as they lost, 41-34, to Pittsburgh at Neyland Stadium. Tennessee had a 10-0 lead after the first quarter, but the Panthers took the lead midway through the second and didn’t trail again the rest of the way.

Here’s some of what social media was saying as the Vols took their first loss under Heupel:

Boom. Heupel’d.

One of those games that was 50/50 and goes against Tenn. If the team was better disciplined this result would have probably been different. Heupel has to answer that question. #Tennessee
