The Volunteers took another huge step forward under first-year coach Jeremy Pruitt with their 24-7 win against No. 11 Kentucky. Tennessee outgained one of college football’s darlings this year 412-262 while moving within one win of guaranteed bowl eligibility.
Swift, meanwhile, racked up 186 yards and a touchdown on just 17 carries, including a game-sealing 77-yard touchdown early in the fourth quarter, against No. 24 Auburn. He also caught four passes for 43 yards as the No. 5 Bulldogs remained in College Football Playoff contention with a 27-10 win victory against their rivals.
