Tennessee and Missouri are going to overtime tied 28-28.
The Tigers scored on a 25-yard, 4th-and-12 pass with 47 seconds left to force overtime.
Tennessee was up 28-21 after three quarters as Missouri's defense started to punch holes.
The Tigers got touchdown runs of 77 and 1 yards from Kendrial Lawrence in the third quarter.
Tennessee countered with Tyler Bray's 16-yard TD pass to Alton Howard, following LaDarrell McNeil's fumble recovery and 33-yard return.
Tennessee led 21-7 after totally dominating the first half against Missouri. At the half, UT had 383 yards of offense to Missouri's 64.
The Vols added a pair of touchdowns in the second quarter, the first a 3-yard run by A.J. Johnson to cap a 73-yard drive.
The 14-7 lead expanded soon after UT's surprising defense forced another three-and-out.
Bray's 21-yard TD pass to Mychal Rivera made it 21-7.
Missouri didn't cross into Tennessee territory until the final minutes of the half.
Tennessee dominated the first quarter but had only a 7-7 tie to show for it.
The Vols got a 5-yard touchdown run from Cordarrelle Patterson but Missouri answered when Jimmie Hunt returned the ensuing kickoff 87 yards for a touchdown.
The Vols' defense kept Missouri under control. Tennessee's offense was hurt when Marlin Lane fumbled at the Mizzou 8 and when Michael Palardy missed a 42-yard field goal.

Can we please have a new coach now? Why hasn't this joke been fired yet? We are such a joke of a football program now. We shouldn't even field a team next year if we fail to fire dooley

This game should be over already!

I hope they pull it out, but I have no hope that they will. They scored 28 in the first half and 0 in the second. The D gave up 0 in the first half and 21 in the second and, in so doing, gave up a first down and a touch down on 4th and long on the crucial drive. Clearly the momentum is with Mizzou, and our idiot coach wants to go to overtime. Fire everyone, not just Dooley from Jimmy Cheek down through the secretaries and waterboys. Revoke all the scholarships and start from scratch. There is NOTHING worth salvaging from that train wreck.

Rumor has it that Dooley will be fired after this game. Hope its true.
Colliervol writes:
No excuse for what happened at the end of regulation. I'm a relatively patient fellow but that's it for me. Dooley should be dismissed no later than tonite.

That sums it up. 30 seconds on the clock, 2 timeouts left and he lets the clock run out. You can't explain or defend that.

Dooley letting the clock run out in regulation was the nail in his coffin , win or lose !

Gotta tip your cap to Mizzou.

Well I hope this game has converted a few more to the Dark Side. Don't let anyone tell you that "TRUE" Vol fans blindly support a coach. You should always support a kid who comes here to wear the orange but you don't have to support anyone that is making money off of our university. Fire Dooley NOW!!!

Missouri will kick field goal and win their first ever S.E.C. game against who? Dooley coached University of Tennessee. What a sad, sad day. sick at my stomach.
underthehill writes:
Dooley will get his buyout..end of discussion..
Vol1983 writes:
How many of you Doolaide drinkers had the Vols winning this game before it ever started? How many firmly believe that Vandy is an easy win? What will it take to make you see what is happening to this program? Dooley will never bring this program back. He is not capable. Tennessee is still in the running for the bottom of the SEC East.

DOOLEY IS THE WORST COACH IN THE HISTORY OF FOOTBALL!!

If you look at my previous 100 comments, I said FIRE DOOLEY already. I don't know what they are waiting on...He won't get us to a bowl game (AGAIN!!!)

C ya Dooley
Eli writes:
The better team lost, but whatever. We will get a coach that knows the game of football better than Dooley. I have watched a lot of ball in my 45 years. This is the most pathetic job of game management I have ever seen...NFL, college, high school, middle school, pee wee. I feel sorry for those young men that gave it their all for Tennessee and got sucker punched by Dooley.

FIRE HIS LOSER BUTT NOW!!

See ya' next week.

They should announce it tonight. This is sickning

They already beat Kentucky, but we get to be second. Great job Dooley! You sir are a complete tool bag! C'mon Doolaide drinkers, whats your boys excuse today???

Game, set, match for Dooley. It's over.

BRAY: 400 YARDS 4 TD'S
WE LOOSE
OUR PLAYERS ARE BETTER THAN THIS. IF DOOLEY IS BACK NEXT SEASON, I DON'T THINK I'LL EVEN WATCH.

Take the ORANGE away from him! He doesn't deserve to wear it!

By far. This is the worst offense we have faced all year, and the second worst we will face all year. Kentucky is a little worse, but not much.
