Tennessee-Chattanooga Moccasins vs. Tennessee Volunteers Recap: Vols Decimate Moccasins, 45-0

They say the fastest and most effective way to kill a snake is to cut off the head.

Well, that’s exactly what the Tennessee Volunteers did to the Tennessee-Chattanooga Moccasins on Saturday.

A sharp Jarrett Guarantano and a smothering defense gave the Vols their first win of the season. It was the type of performance this team needed, and the hope is that it will bleed over into next week’s game against the Florida Gators.

The Vols were able to get off to a much-needed, quick start thanks to a 58-yard kick return from Ty Chandler that took the ball all the way to the Chattanooga 41.
