Tennessee in 2001


Was my pick as well. That team was absolutely loaded on both sides of the ball and was dominant for much of the season. Beating that 2001 UF team in Gainesville was special. They were probably the second best team in America that season behind Miami. They were loaded at WR, Travis Stephens was a great RB, Jason Witten at TE, and their DL looked like an all pro lineup. Casey Clausen was a headcase, but a talented one.

I think the fact that we dominated Auburn as badly as we did (with a 6-4 team) should eliminate them from the argument.


Some weird shite has happened in the DSOR over the years. That was one of the weirdest.

Very true. It was better than most of those UT teams that dominated us in the 90s.

It was definitely one of those games I don't think anyone saw coming. Not saying that Auburn was complete fool's gold - 01 UT and even LSU in 05 had a clear edge in talent and QB play.
