Not only did Tennessee get over the hump and beat Florida on Saturday, but they did it without perhaps their second best player. Cedric Tillman missed the game against the Gators after suffering a high-ankle sprain against Akron, which pushed Ramel Keyton up a notch on the depth chart.
And things didn’t look all that different.
Keyton hauled in three catches for 69 yards, none bigger than his diving grab to set Tennessee up to score before halftime. That 43 yard catch was part of the pivotal 99 yard drive that resulted in a touchdown and a 17-14 lead for the Volunteers at the break.
