Tennessee pulled out all the stops in hopes of ending a 10-game losing streak versus Florida on Saturday. They almost worked. However, almost won't make the Vol Nation feel any better after a bitter 28-27 loss to the Gators.
Down 7-0 midway through the first quarter, head coach Butch Jones dialed up some trickeration for the Vols. Signal-caller Josh Dobbs threw what everyone thought was a bubble screen to freshman receiver Jauan Jennings, who caught the pass, and appeared primed to throw it down the field vertically.
Instead, Jennings flipped the ball back to Dobbs on the other side of the field. Dobbs had a host of Vols ready to block for him, and he took the double-pass for a 58-yard touchdown. Demonstrating serious speed down the sidelines, Dobbs looked like a receiver galloping to the promised land.
