Throughout this winning streak, Tennessee football has relied on a few gigantic plays each game to pull out victories. However, on Saturday, it was a different story. Despite numerous mistakes, their 24-20 win at the Missouri Tigers was the result of great offensive plays throughout the game and the defense consistently coming through.
The Vols overcame falling behind 3-0 and 10-7 while also suffering two blocked field goals, another fourth quarter fumble and allowing a first down on a fake punt. Simply put, Jeremy Pruitt’s team had a lot of curveballs thrown its way in this game.
