I love seeing this field view perspective after a tough fought game like that. It is incredible to see guys fight it out and still show humility and respect after the game no matter win or lose. As a Tennessee fan I think people need to realize this game was exactly was should have been expected. Florida and Arkansas gives us more trouble than any other team in the SEC, so it is always a hard fought battle. It is also very possible for teams to improve over the course of the season, so I think Florida is better than people give them credit. I also think Tennessee is really just a few wrinkles away from being really good like they have shown, but every time it felt like they had a good drive they just shot themselves in the foot with either a penalty or a turnover. I think it is a champion mentality to be able to grind out a win like that. It really felt like we didn't deserve that win, so if wee fiugre out how to get the wheels turning I don't see any team that can rival us except maybe Texas.
I lived through the 1990s, a time when even Peyton Manning couldn't beat Florida... where nothing less than a national championship run was good enough to finally take the Gators down. Florida isn't as formidable as they once were, and this game may have been ugly... but the Vols still won in the end. I'll take it! 🍺😎
A win in this rivalry is always great no matter how the teams played. I’ve seen UT take better rosters to this game and still get whipped, so any win is a good win versus Florida
