Here's what Butch Jones said after Tennessee's miraculous 34-31 victory over Georgia
Tennessee defeated Georgia, 34-31, on a miraculous hail mary pass by Joshua Dobbs as time expired.
After allowing Georgia to score with 10 seconds remaining, Dobbs connected with Jauan Jennings on a 43-yard pass in the end zone.
The Vols improved to 5-0 for the first time since their BCS Championship season in 1998. Here’s what head coach Butch Jones said after the win.
