Tennessee’s first win over No. 3 Alabama was monumental on its own. The Vols exorcised 15 years worth of demons as Tennessee fans poured on the field as Chase McGrath’s 40-yard field goal ended a thrilling Third Saturday in October.
While the win is extremely meaningful on its own, it changes the outlook and potential of this year’s Tennessee team.
Needing a win over Georgia to almost assuredly punch its ticket to the SEC Championship, the Vols season has serious postseason implications. Even with a loss to the top-ranked Bulldogs, Tennessee could still find itself in the College Football Playoff.
