This is what it's all about. The Tennessee Vols football team has made its way to Columbus and fans are taking over the city. This is something Josh Heupel and his players know all about. As the team was entering the stadium, Heupel decided to greet everyone braving the cold.
Thanks to reporter Trey Wallace, we've been given a close-up look of Heupel passionately firing up everyone in orange. Heupel knows what's at stake in this one and he's ready to rock. He's also ready for everyone packing the stands to do their part too:

Josh Heupel is ready for Tennessee to try to take down Ohio State in the CFP
Anyone else ready to run through a wall? Yes, it's chilly in Ohio and yes, the conditions aren't ideal for the matchup. However, it's time for these two teams to finally put the pads on and see who wants it more. The Vols are underdogs and they love things that way.
Countless times leading up to Saturday we've seen experts and analysts claim Tennessee will have no chance to post an upset because of how cold it's going to be for this late kickoff on Dec. 21. Again, it's absurd. Yeah, we might end up eating our words, but we don't think it's going to make that big of a difference.
Tennessee is far too disciplined as a team to let something like the weather prevent them from operating at a high level. Heupel has seen all the orange in town and he's loving it. Time for the coach to get his players ready to help send those same fans in Columbus home with a big smile on their face thanks to a Vols victory. Ohio State is hoping to prevent that from happening, but Heupel and his guys are ready to attack this challenge head on.
