College Football Week 3 Recap
Before I start this recap I would like to say that I’ve never been this upset about a Tennessee loss. Losing sucks, losing to Florida is even worse, but losing to Florida and making all the mistakes we made is just awful. Also shoutout to Kaleb who’s a Nebraska fan, it was a tough weekend for us.
