Well,lets look into this--its 3:30 on Friday and I've quoted my life away all week --

Tennessee moved from #16 to #8 in two weeks late in the season--with wins over 5-6 Kentucky (42-0 in Lexington one week after UK lost in Gainesville, 15-13) and 3-7-1 Vanderbilt, which shows the voters had underrated them.

They did lose 17-10 in Gainesville to Florida, who defeated Miami 35-23 in Miami and LSU 20-0 in Baton Rouge.

Tennessee and UCLA tied in the season opener, 26-26.UCLA would go on to clobber Iowa in the Rose Bowl who was ranked #2 when their season ended, yet dropped two weeks in a row to 4th before the bowls.

Tennessee creamed then #1 Auburn, 38-20 in Game 2. Auburn was still ranked #7 going into the Iron Bowl with Van Tiffin.

Tennessee and Georgia Tech tied, 6-6. Tech finished 9-2-1 and #20. But they beat Georgia in the regular season finale a few weeks after Georgia beat then #1 Florida.

Tennessee beat Alabama, 16-14 who wound up #13. Alabama beat said Georgia team, Auburn and Southern Cal in the Aloha Bowl, a Trojan team that beat UCLA.

Two other seemingly

wins have shocking "ties." UT crushed Rutgers, 40-0 and Rutgers somehow tied Florida 28-28. In the season finale, Tennessee crushed Vanderbilt 30-0. Vandy and Georgia had tied 13-13 as a makable VU fg fell short at the horn.
