GoVols247 dissects the movie to examine in detail 12 plays—good, bad, and otherwise—from Tennessee’s defeat at Georgia.
The No. 1 team in college football arrived at Neyland Stadium, took the opening punch, and dominated from there to end Tennessee’s 14-game home winning streak. Tennessee simply lacked the strength to challenge Georgia. On the opening play of the game, Jaylen Wright’s 75-yard touchdown run sent the orange-clad crowd into a frenzy. However, as the Bulldogs took control, there wasn’t much to celebrate after that. To put it simply, third down proved to be the difference in the game; Tennessee was 2 of 11 and Georgia was 9 of 13.
“The football game the other day, I said it afterwards, we played hard,” Vols head coach Josh Heupel said Monday. “We played smarter football, too. You can look at our penalties, and we were cleaner than we had been. The game, you can look at one stat. You look at third downs in particular, and getting you to the next set of downs, and they were able to convert — a lot of that was in man-to-man situations — and make plays. Offensively, we were not able to do that, not able to sustain anything.”
