On Thursday, Tennessee announced it would be sporting a “SF27” helmet decal in the Music City Bowl as a tribute to late Nebraska punter Sam Foltz, who died in a car accident this summer. It turns out that isn’t all the Vols are doing to honor Foltz.
On Friday, Tennessee presented Nebraska with a signed orange No. 27 Foltz jersey.

Classy gestures have gone both ways between the Music City Bowl teams. Nebraska players will be wearing a “Mountain Tough” helmet sticker in tribute to the victims of the East Tennessee wildfires.
