A shaky start in a shaky season turned into the best game of the Vol junior's career, changing the narrative of both team and quarterback.
Many of us have pointed to the fourth down touchdown pass to Josh Smith as Saturday's most important play, the catalyst for a comeback. Before Dobbs let that ball fly he was just 11 of 23 for 123 yards (5.3 YPA) and an interception. But even just after the big 39 yard strike for six, Dobbs was still a little shaky: he fired into quadruple coverage but survived on the first play after Georgia's fumble of the ensuing kickoff, and Josh Malone did most of the work on his own getting the Vols in striking distance just before halftime.
