Campbell was perfect against Kentucky, connecting on 4-of-4 field goal attempts of 44, 49, 34 and 35 yards that helped the Vols maintain their lead.

The Jackson, Tennessee native and Indiana transfer is 15-of-17 on the season.

“Growing up in the state of Tennessee, wanted play with the Power T on his helmet," Tennessee head coach Josh Heupel said. "To have an opportunity for him and his family, to represent their family. To represent the university means a lot to him. For him to perform the way he has up until this point, it’s been a lot of fun for him. But for us, too. He’s submerged himself in the fabric of this football team extremely quickly. He’s a Vol and a great teammate inside of this locker room.”
