Josh Heupel savagely claps back at Gary Danielson's comments about Neyland Stadium
Earlier this week, CBS Sports' Gary Danielson, who will be calling the Tennessee Vols' game against the Texas A&M Aggies on Saturday, suggested that Neyland Stadium isn't louder than any other SEC stadium.

Earlier this week, CBS Sports' Gary Danielson, who will be calling the Tennessee Vols' game against the Texas A&M Aggies on Saturday, suggested that Neyland Stadium isn't louder than any other SEC stadium.
"This is not a criticism, just an observation. It has nothing to do with Neyland (Stadium), per se, or any other stadium,” Danielson said to KnoxNews.com. “(Home-field advantage) is about the same every week. Whether you’re playing at Ole Miss or LSU or Florida in the Swamp or Georgia…for a football player, loud is loud."
“I don’t know if it makes any difference if there’s 80,000 loud people or 100,000 loud people."
On Saturday, Vols head coach Josh Heupel appeared to respond to Danielson's comments during an appearance on the SEC Network.
"I know there's some around the country that don't necessarily feel that Neyland's that loud," said Heupel. "I'd expect a big time performance by our fans today."
If that doesn't fire up Tennessee fans for the game on Saturday, I don't know what will.
Heupel has never been afraid to clap back at media members that talk trash about Tennessee (remember when Heupel destroyed Kirk Herbstreit last year after the Vanderbilt game).
And that's what makes Heupel the perfect coach for Tennessee. Vols fans keep receipts and so does Heupel.
