Vols’ loss to Arkansas part of ‘trials and tribulations’

FAYETTEVILLE — Tennessee (2-4, 2-4 SEC) suffered its fourth consecutive loss at Arkansas Saturday.

The losing streak comes after opening the 2020 campaign with wins at South Carolina and against Missouri.

Following Tennessee’s 24-13 loss at Arkansas, UT players discussed the mood within their team after falling to the Razorbacks.

Sophomore linebacker Henry To’o To’o said it will be a “24-hour rule” before preparing for its next opponent in Texas A&M.

“You live and you learn,” To’o To’o said. “That’s a part of life — you go through trials and tribulations, and you learn from it.”

Sophomore running back Eric Gray mentioned that he believes his teammates are in good spirits moving forward.

“Of course you don’t want to lose, but I believe everybody’s in good spirits, everyone knows you have to get back to work and focus on the next game ahead,” Gray said following the Arkansas game. “This game is over with, and we have to put this one behind and focus on what’s ahead of us.”
