The Tennessee football team has already endured a bit of an early-season roller coaster in its first two games, winning a barn burner against Bowling Green before falling in double overtime against Oklahoma.
After the opener, all the concern centered around a defense that allowed 30 points to a Falcons team that is going to wind up proving to be extremely dangerous. With the way BGSU looks, that win may age like a fine wine.
Though the Vols squandered a 17-point lead against the Sooners at home, the takeaway from that game was an offense (and coaching staff) who couldn't do what it took to close the deal.
