Tennessee's Josh Heupel Addresses Reunion With Alex Golesh Ahead of Auburn Clash

Tennessee volunteers head coach Josh Heupel recently discussed the upcoming clash against the Auburn Tigers, which features a homecoming for first-year Auburn coach Alex Golesh. Golesh previously coordinated the Volunteers offense to historic heights during the 2021 and 2022 seasons, helping quarterback Hendon Hooker reach the finals for the Maxwell Award while earning his own Broyles Award finalist nod.

Both coaches downplayed the mutual familiarity between their respective staffs, suggesting that shared backgrounds ultimately balance out any tactical advantage. Heupel also noted certain parallels to a prior matchup against Kennesaw State led by former Tennessee assistant Jerry Mack, though personnel differences remain significant.
