Trying and Failing to Rank the Georgia Finish

I think we’re all quite confident in the Josh Dobbs/Jauan Jennings hail mary being the first of its kind for the Vols. Casey Clausen and James Banks did the deed at Florida in 2003, but that was at the end of the first half.

But beyond a hail mary, have the Vols ever won a non-overtime game with a touchdown on the final play of regulation?

Here’s an early attempt to put Saturday into context. I was born in 1981 and my memories go back to around 1989.

Overtime Wins

Once things go to overtime the odds of sudden victory reach 100%, with do-or-die plays aplenty and going both ways if the team with the ball first kicks a field goal.
