From Saturday Blitz
"The stats are essentially irrelevant, and while you got a small glimpse into the mind of Butch Jones on Saturday, the product you saw on the field was irrelevant too. As is the way with spring football, there wasn’t much you could take from the Tennessee Volunteers spring game from a football standpoint."
From the Tennessean
"New Tennessee coach Butch Jones is making a favorable first impression off the field.Only time will tell if his first Tennessee team can have a similar impact on the field this fall.The first Orange & White Game of Jones’ tenure Saturday drew a crowd of 61,076, the second-highest total ever for a Tennessee spring game. As early as 3 a.m., people started lining up for a pregame autograph session with Jones and the players that eventually drew an estimated 25,000 fans."
From the UT Daily Beacon

In the end, however, the Rebels were able to come away with a 6-4 victory."
