A third loss by exactly 26 points would not seem to signify any sort of improvement, especially when those are the only three games you’ve played against Power Five opponents. But it was a different story for Tennessee football after the Vols faced the Georgia Bulldogs Saturday.
Despite suffering the blowout loss, UT played hard and showed signs of life in the second half. The play of specific units helped the Vols make this game interesting, which is something that nobody saw coming against Kirby Smart’s team Saturday.
Jeremy Pruitt’s guys clearly have a lot of fight in them, even if they make key mistakes and fluke plays work against them.
