With Tennessee’s 19-8 win over Missouri, the Volunteers have an opportunity to end their regular season on a five-game winning streak.
Here is a collection of thoughts and comments from Tennessee coach Butch Jones after Saturday night’s game:
Butch: Any SEC road win is a great win. We had poise and patience.

Butch Jones: Patience and poise were key to this win. We didn't like kicking field goals but our kids did well.

JONES on no sleeves on his team: that's the mentality of our program. I could see the look in their eyes this morning, they were ready.

Butch has twice mentioned none of his players wearing sleeves in the cold. He's proud of it.

JONES: Jalen Hurd ran hard. He squared his shoulders and turned upfield. Our offensive line opened holes.

Butch said the fourth quarter drive that took nearly five minutes was a game-closing drive. "We've been stressing that."

JONES: Anytime we have success it builds confidence. We controlled the turnovers and controlled the game
