Auburn absolutely dominated the first half. In the first quarter they could only muster up a 29 yard Field Goal to put them ahead 3-0. On the 1st play of the 2nd quarter however, QB Jeremy Johnson threw a 47 yard bomb to Trovon Reed, who got behind the Tennessee secondary and scored easily on the huge TD catch. Auburn would then score one more time in the half as QB Jeremy Johnson eluded the sack and scrambled 8 yards for the TD. So, going into halftime the score was 17-0 Auburn.
Auburn would then extend the lead even further when Johnson connected with Reed for the 2nd time in the game, this time on a 34 yard post route over the middle of the field in double coverage as Reed made a spectacular catch in the endzone for the TD. Tennessee finally responded with a TD of their own as QB Justin Worley kept the read option and scored on the 6 yard TD run.
Tennessee would score twice in the 4th quarter but that wouldn't be enough. The first score was a 25 yard TD pass to WR Devrin Young as Young was wide open on his streak route right in the middle of the field and Worley threw a perfect pass. Tennessee's 2nd score came when Worley dumped off a pass to TE Brendan Downs who was open in the right corner of the endzone on what was a slant play call. So, Tennessee was back within 3 points. But, Auburn recovered the onside kick and ran the clock out from there with HB Cameron Artis Payne to seal the deal. So, the Auburn Tigers escape Knoxville with a 24-21 victory.
And with this loss, Tennessee can only get to 5 wins, which is not enough to be bowl eligible.
