That was fast.

Just 3 days after Tennessee football fans stormed the field, tore down the goalposts and threw them in the Tennessee river, the athletic department has erected replacements.

They were racing against the clock, after all. Tennessee hosts UT Martin this week and Kentucky after that on Oct. 29.

Tennessee’s athletic department was no doubt prepared for the potential of fans tearing down teh goalposts on Saturday should the Vols have come out on top. Tennessee is, after all, playing like one of the best teams in the country right now.

The Vols have 2 more big tests this season. If they pass, the Vols are very likely on its way to the College Football Playoff.

One game at a time, though.
