Tennessee can certainly be proud of the way this game was played in the second half.

To be honest, by the end of the first half I didn’t really think that Tennessee really had much a chance to come back into the game but they sure did.

Mississippi State Wolverines were undefeated coming in to this game. Their defense proved to be quite formidable for the Tennessee offense, and the Bulldog offense stood up to them very well.

Tennessee was in almost complete control during the third quarter and Mississippi State had the 4th quarter to gain that control back. They actually did a pretty good job of it too.

In fact Mississippi State ended up gaining the edge back and winning the game 41 to 31.
