Tennessee football Smokey points: Top five Vols in 24-20 Missouri win

While it was a team effort on defense, it’s pretty clear who the standout performers were on offense when Tennessee football beat the Missouri Tigers 24-20 on Saturday. And lots of people deserve credit for making this win happen.

The Vols used one of the greatest passing performances in school history to move to 6-5 on the year and drop Mizzou to 5-6, and it’s just another part of their emergence in Jeremy Pruitt’s second season on the job. Key stops and big plays told the story.

We can narrow down which players stood out for Tennessee football in the passing game, as that’s measurable by numbers alone.
