Tennessee quarterback Joe Milton III appeared on the “Talking Giants” podcast and discussed the toughest stadium he played in over the course of his college career. Though Milton went through the gauntlet of an SEC schedule, he pointed to a Big Ten stadium as the toughest he’s played in, mainly because of the consistent environment he played in during his time at the University of Tennessee.

Milton went 8-4 as a starter, doing what he could to keep the Vols on an upward trajectory. He amassed 2,813 passing yards and accounted for 27 touchdowns during his tenure as the starter, throwing just five interceptions in 2023. He made a lot of strides during his final season of college football and earned an invite to the Reese’s Senior Bowl. Milton had a productive week of practice but earned attention for who he was off the field.
