NFL analyst/former NFL quarterback Sean Salisbury wasn't a fan of one Josh Heupel's late-game decisions in the Tennessee Vols' embarrassing 36-7 loss to the Missouri Tigers on Saturday evening. 

While down 29 points, with less than a minute remaining in the game, Heupel sent his field goal unit out to attempt a field goal to close the gap to just 26 points. 

The kick was missed, which led to a loud round of cheering from Missouri fans. 

It was definitely an odd move from Tennessee. The points weren't going to help. And the moment the field goal unit hit the field, everyone knew it was going to be a talking point with the national media. It wasn't a great look for the Vols. But that decision not being a great look is the least of Tennessee's worries after the way they played on Saturday night in Columbia.
