Tennessee is one of the worst teams in the SEC and recently suffered its biggest blowout in school history at the hands ofOregon. The Volunteers actually looked decent this week, decent enough to almost beat No. 6 Georgia in front of the orange-clad fans.

Almost. Aaron Murray's last second touchdown pass forced an overtime where Tennesee got the ball within the Bulldog's 10-yard line. Sophomore Pig Howard tried to put the Volunteers ahead by stretching out and putting the ball pass the pylon. He did the the latter, but the problem is the ball left his hands before he did so. That's a fumble and a touchback. Cue the ensuing drive which ended with the game-winning, Marshall Morgan field goal. Cue (once again) Tennessee's disappointment at that 34-31 score.
