Against Kentucky, the Vols’ field goal luck struck again—as Lones Seiber’s potential game-winning 35 yard line drive kick in the second overtime, flew directly into the outstretched hand of a Vol defensive lineman.
Four overtimes is exciting, but how exactly do you blow 31-14 lead in the most important game of the season? How do you explain your coach calling for a one point extra point in the third overtime? Resilient? More like gosh darn lucky. 
Is Tennessee that bad? Certainly not. Who knows how the same team mentioned above put a beat-down on Georgia, or how they contained Darren McFadden and put the Hogs on lock-down. But that’s the point:
By my account, Tennessee has two good wins this season, and one of those wins was over an unranked team in Arkansas. What is this, the Big 12?
Don’t believe me, check the polls, where you will find Tennessee behind two other SEC East teams—two-loss Georgia and surging Florida—both fresh off convincing rivalry game wins.
The SEC Championship hasn’t been this meaningless in some time.
What a game it would be to watch the Georgia Morenos, err, Bulldogs against the Tigers’ defense, or the Gators seeking revenge for their mid-season heart breaker in Death Valley.
Instead, viewers will be treated to puke-orange Tennessee matched up against the yellow and purple. Even the jerseys match up horribly.
Let’s hope that LSU puts Friday’s loss behind them and plays loose football. I wouldn’t want the country to think Tennessee is the best the SEC has to offer.
For the Vols’ sake, I hope Phil Fulmer remembers that the SEC Championship is played in a dome.
