2 of our overtime wins have come in College Station, most recently 2011, and a third was in Knoxville last year. I think that's the extent of our overtime involvement with current SEC teams, aside from this weekend's Cock-knocking of course...
Pinkel's stated reason for playing for OT though was that he didn't want to risk throwing an interception on your side of the field with less than a minute left that could have put you in position for a game winning field goal. It's debatable. The logic I often hear sportscasters say is you play for OT on the road and play for the win at home...

With the way Mauk was playing I don't blame him for not wanting to throw the ball. At least he didn't knee it.
Go out and run the ball, if it breaks for a long gain then reevaluate and try and get into field goal range is exactly what I would have done
