They have defeated ranked teams, and they have also stumbled in conference play. At times, they have looked like a powerhouse. At times, they played without their suspended coach.
It has been an up and down ride for the Tennessee Volunteers in 2010-11. The ride continues into the NCAA tournament. (Read More…)

However, the second half was a completely different story, as the Volunteers were shut out by the more talented Crimson Tide.
Tennessee’s front seven crumbled in the second half as Alabama churned up yards on the ground and rushed for three touchdowns. (Read More…)

The Tennessee Volunteers put together their best game of the season but still came up short in a 16-14 loss to the LSU Tigers.
The game came down to the final play when LSU nudged the ball into the end zone from one-yard out for the winning score.
It was an agonizing defeat for the Volunteers, who have been on the losing end of a lot of games so far this year.

He then went on to say that he was never getting beat like Tennessee has since the time he was fired. (Read More…)
