Former Oakland Raiders owner Al Davis had a very famous phrase: “Just win, baby.”

That’s a phrase that Tennessee fans will surely take to heart after Saturday night, and in any game between the Vols and the Gators. The Vols found a way, barely, to escape Florida 23-17 on Saturday night at Neyland Stadium. Dylan Sampson pounded the ball in from the 1-yard line in overtime for a walk-off win for Tennessee.

Sampson was the straw that stirred the drink for a Tennessee offense that struggled for much of the night. He totaled 112 yards on 27 carries with 2 rushing scores.
