Alston sends this kickoff deep into the endzone, but the returner brings it out. He gets to the 21 before he's taken down.
2 plays later Mark Braun, the senior cornerback who recovered the fumble before halftime, makes an interception. He's tackled at the MSU 18 yard line with 1:49 left in the game.
I'm about to head back out onto the field when I get a hand on my shoulder pad. It's Coach Fulmer.
"We're sending in Schneider. You're done for the day, son."
I take my helmet off and watch as Schneider takes the first snap and lofts a touchdown pass to Castleberry. Alston adds the extra point to make it 27-3.
MSU sends out their second team QB for the final drive and he has success, just enough to make the game final.
Final score: Tennessee 27, Mississippi State 3
But is there a quarterback controversy at Tennessee?
