Somewhere, sometime, somehow...we were gonna win a close game. We were gonna win an SEC road game. It had to happen. The law of probability demanded it.
So, in addition to being enveloped in math, the close road win Saturday night in Knoxville was coated in gravy. Not the kind we gorged on last November against LSU, but it was sweet and meaty nonetheless. Saturday night not only exorcised more monkeys (surely we're out of those by now), it revealed continued progress and a team beginning to look like the squad that ended the 2014 season in December.
