SEC College Football: Florida Beats Tennessee at the Swamp in Thriller

Tennessee vs. Florida game 09/26/15
Tennessee vs. Florida SEC College Football Sept. 26, 2015

Sept. 26, 2015 - Before today, the Tennessee Volunteers have lost to the Florida Gators the previous 10 encounters. On Sept. 26, 2015, they almost snapped their losing streak to Florida in the Swamp. After this game, one could argue that Tennessee is at the start of a comeback as a powerhouse college football team in the SEC conference, just because of how well they did offensively. However, they were not able to hold and keep the lead at the end of the game. Tennessee loses an 11th time to Florida. The scoring recap by quarter is below.

First Quarter: Florida Gators Score First Against Tennessee; Tennessee Ties it

The Florida Gators started the football game in the first quarter when K. Taylor scored a touchdown for Florida early on at 10:23 mark on the clock.

Tennessee quarterback Jauan Jennings threw the ball for 58 yards to J. Dobbs for a Tennessee Volunteers touchdown. This drive was only 14 seconds long and the score happened at 5:07 in the first quarter. At this point, the score is tied 7 - 7.

Second Quarter: Tennessee Scores Another TD, then 3 pt. Field Goal

The Tennessee Volunteers continue strong offensively in the second quarter. Jalen Hurd runs 1 yard on the drive to score a touchdown at 8:18 in the 2nd quarter. 1 pt. field goal is good. Then, Aaron Medley kicks a 34 yard field goal and it is good at the 3:13 mark. Score is 17 - 7.

Third Quarter: Tennessee Scores Another Field Goal before Florida gets another TD

At 11:07 in the third quarter, Aaron Medley gets another 3 pt. field goal for Tennessee. Florida finally gets another touchdown at the 5:42 point in the 3rd quarter.

Fourth Quarter: Tennessee Scores Another Touchdown; Florida gets Another Touchdown and Wins Game


At 10:19 in the 4th quarter, Tennessee's Jalen Hurd runs for 10 yards for a touchdown. The Florida Gators get another touchdown at 4:09 in the 4th quarter after Brandon Powell catches a 5 yard pass from Will Grier, keeping the game close at 27 - 21. 

In a last ditch attempt, Will Grier throws a 63 yard long pass to Antonio Callaway at 1:26 in the fourth quarter. Jorge Powell kicks a field goal, and puts Florida in the lead 28 - 27.

After this scoring play, Tennessee attempted a 55 yard field goal on Aaron Medley, as he kicks and misses the field goal. Tennessee gets a second chance at the field goal, and misses again, just barely the second time.

Tennessee was unable to beat the Florida Gators on Sept. 26, 2015.

Auburn Tigers Barely Beats Georgia Bulldogs 43 - 38

Auburn barely wins against Georgia
Auburn Quarterback Nick Marshall about to throw to Ricardo Louis in win over Georgia

On Saturday Nov. 16, 2013 Auburn played Georgia in an SEC conference regular season game. Auburn barely wins. Georgia ended the game very close in score, but the scoreboard does not tell the whole story of how Auburn beat Georgia.

Auburn was ahead most of the game, ahead of the Georgia Bulldogs 37 - 17 at one point in the game.
Somehow, Auburn managed to blow a 20 point lead. In the final minutes of the game, the Georgia Bulldogs were up 38 - 37 over Auburn. Auburn then makes a "miracle" play to beat Georgia.

Auburn Miracle Play Wins the Game


With :25 sec remaining in the game, Wide receiver Ricardo Louis makes a 73 yard touchdown after a catch from Quarterback Nick Marshall. Marshall took five steps back before launching the football downfield to Louis.

Auburn defensive end Dee Ford said, "When he caught it, I fell on my back. I fainted for a second."

Auburn receiver Sammie Coates said, "I didn't know what to think. I saw the ball in the air, and I said, 'I hope somebody comes down with it.'"

Quarterback Nick Marshall said, "It was just an exciting moment to be a part of."

Wide receiver Ricardo Louis said, "I kind of expected to make a play, but not like that."

Coach Gus Malzahn was not worried. He had confidence in his quarterback after seeing Nick Marshall have successfully game-winning touchdown drives to win the game against both Mississippi State and Texas A&M earlier in the season.

Malzahn said, "Believe it or not, I felt good. I had a decent idea how'd they play in their two-minute defense, and we've got a great field goal kicker so we're pretty calm right there."

Auburn barely wins against Georgia, but it was nothing short of the quarterback Nick Marshall staying calm under pressure.

Can Auburn Beat Alabama in the Iron Bowl?


This has been a surprisingly good SEC football season for the Auburn Tigers, and everyone is wondering how Auburn will beat an undefeated Alabama Crimson Tide in the Iron Bowl on November 30, 2013.

Did You Know?


In the 2013 SEC football season, Auburn has won five games by a touchdown or less.

No.1 Ranked Alabama Loses to No. 15 Texas A&M

Texas A&M football players celebrating a touchdown in Alabama endzone


The unthinkable happened to the Alabama Crimson Tide on 11/10/12. They lost a football game. All Alabama fans are in a panic, because until now, we had our eyes set on a National Championship.

Johnny Manziel, Texas A&M quarterback is looking like a hero as he threw 2 touchdowns against the behemoth, Alabama. But who said the football giant couldn't be slayed? David slayed Goliath with only a sling and a rock.

Most importantly, this was probably Alabama's last competitive team of the season with the Texas A&M Aggies. The only games remaining after this one was with Western Carolina and then Auburn. Auburn has the worst record in years, and are having trouble beating their own practice team. I'm sure this loss to Texas A&M gives Auburn some hope, considering that Gene Chizik's job is on the line.

After this game, the Alabama Crimson Tide are now (9-1), but don't count them out.

You must remember that last year, Alabama lost 1 game to the LSU Tigers, skipped the SEC Conference game completely, played LSU again, and won the National Championship.

Can Alabama pull off something like that again?

We will see.

One thing is for certain. Oregon will most likely become the new number 1 team, as Notre Dame and Kansas State join the Ducks as the only undefeated teams left.

This is no doubt a sad day for Alabama fans as they lose their first game in a long stretch of W's.

SEC fans everywhere are now scratching their heads wondering why we even invited Texas A&M into our conference. I know A.J. McCarron is probably crying about the loss (see pics) in the locker room. He has a right to cry if he wants to.

There's always next year for Nick Saban, because this one is starting to look like a loss.
