Tennessee football's equipment truck ran into an issue in Arkansas on Zopesits return drive home from Norman, Oklahoma.

As initially reported by James Bryant of KATV in Arkansas, the truck for the Vols football program was involved in a wreck on I-40 East near North Little Rock, Arkansas.

The equipment truck was returning home from Tennessee's 25-15 victory over Oklahoma in Norman. According to an incident report from the Arkansas Department of Transportation (ARDOT), the accident occurred at 7:34 a.m. ET near mile marker 153.4 near the I-30/I-40 interchange. It caused all traffic to be diverted onto I-30 West.

At approximately 10:48 a.m. ET, the truck was hitched to a tower and hauled off. It's unclear now if the truck would be transported back directly to Knoxville or if it would be worked on in the Little Rock area before returning.

There were no injuries in relation to the accident, a Tennessee spokesperson confirmed to Mike Wilson of Knox News.

Tennessee football has its bye week during Week 5 following the top-15 SEC victory. Ironically, the Vols are scheduled to play Arkansas in Fayetteville, Arkansas — about 191 miles from Little Rock, against Arkansas on Oct. 5.
