The Tennessee Volunteers entered their matchup with the Missouri Tigers and they knew what was on the line: a potential bowl bid and the first winning season since 2016.
But a couple of key turnovers proved to be the difference as the Vols fell to 2-5 against the Tigers in SEC play on Saturday night.
As expected, the Tigers’ offense got off to a quick start. They were able to keep their attacked balanced, throwing the ball four times to five times rushing the ball. The end result was a trip to the UT 12-yard line, but a false start pushed Missouri into a 3rd-and-10 from the UT 17.
