It came down to the wire, but Tennessee football was able to hold on for a huge win over the Kentucky Wildcats. The Vols are now in the midst of their first three-game winning streak ever under head coach Jeremy Pruitt, and they moved to .500 with a 17-13 win in Lexington after a horrendous 0-2 start.
UT fell behind 13-0 in the first quarter, but they did not allow UK to score the rest of the game. They held off Mark Stoops’s team on a goal-line stand late in the game, and then Jarrett Guarantano ran for the first down on the next drive to allow the Vols to run out the clock.
