Tennessee was the warm-up. The bigger challenge for Georgia State comes this week when the Panthers host Furman.

At least, that's how Panthers safety Remy Lazarus sees it.

“I think (Furman) will give us a tougher battle than we faced Saturday, if you want to be honest,” Lazarus told the Atlanta Journal Constitution.

Georgia State (1-0) is basking in the spotlight after beating Tennessee 38-30 on Saturday at Neyland Stadium. The Vols were 26-point favorites and paid Georgia State $950,000 for the matchup.

"We were just the better team," Panthers quarterback Dan Ellington told the AJC. "We went out and played and had a lot of fun that day. I don’t think they had a lot of fun. I know their fans didn’t have fun."

They're just hell bent on banging the corpse of Tennessee football like a bunch of necrophiliacs

This doesn't happen if you don't lose to a 2-10 FCS opponent at home.

Trust me, I know.

GSU really needs to act like they’ve been there before.

It's still inexcusable but they are FBS.

Damn, Phil. Usually you'd be trying to spin this somehow. Times are tough indeed.

This wouldn't have happened on Butch Jones' watch.
