KNOXVILLE, Tenn. — Some of the most important tells, according to Butch Jones, are nonverbal cues.

“Body language,” he said, “speaks volumes.”

So let’s take a look at body language, as the final seconds ticked away in Tennessee’s 38-28 victory against Florida. It snapped an 11-game losing streak in the series. It came after spotting the Gators the first 21 points. The home team was booed off the field at halftime. And then, after scoring 38 in a row, the volume inside Neyland Stadium cranked into noise-crackling delirium.

As the final seconds ticked off and the old stadium celebrated its 95th birthday, Jones huddled with the line judge.
