Jeremy Pruitt's second year at Tennessee has been a roller coaster.

The Vols (8-5, 5-3 SEC) lost the season opener to Georgia State, 38-30 and followed it up with a heart-breaking 29-26 loss in double overtime. UT won for the first time this season with an easy 45-0 win over Chattanooga.

The Vols followed it with two loses to start SEC play, a 34-3 thumping by nemesis Florida in Gainesville and a 43-14 defeat to Georgia at home.  

UT won its first SEC game since November of 2018 with a 20-10 home win against Mississippi State. The Vols lost 35-13 at then-No. 1 Alabama but bounced back with six consecutive victories.

The Vols defeated South Carolina 40-21 and dumped UAB 30-7 for home wins, followed it up with road wins at Kentucky, 17-13, and Missouri, 24-20, and concluded the regular season by beating Vanderbilt 28-10 at home.

In the Gator Bowl, the Vols used a fourth-quarter rally to stun Indiana 23-22.

The Vols were 5-7 overall and 2-6 in the SEC during Pruitt's first season.
