Tennessee Volunteers College Football Pregame Quote, 12/28/2022

On Clemson’s defense:

JABARI SMALL: (They have a) very talented front seven. They’re very athletic and very fast. They can play multiple different structures. They’re very versatile as a defense. They have good team speed, so we’ve got to be ready for the challenge.

On quarterback Joe Milton III since taking over as starter:

JABARI SMALL: (He’s) very confident. His confidence is very contagious. He looks comfortable. I think this game he’ll get a chance to really display his talent because at Vanderbilt in the last game there was a lot of rain. I think in this game we can let him loose and just let him show his talent.

On the Orange Bowl experience:

JABARI SMALL: Oh so fun. I was with some of my teammates who had never been to the beach and they said they had never felt that peaceful before -just hearing the water and just being around people. It’s been a lot of fun for us and not only me, but my teammates. It was just good vibes.
