Fortunately, Ole Miss isn't able to capitalize on the field position. They're forced to punt after 3 plays again. The 42 yard punt is actually returned for a positive 6 yards by Billmaier.
Ladies and gentlemen, Marc Billmaier!
The crowd gives a mock cheer for the forward return of the punt.
1st and 10 UT at the UT 42. 3:22 left in the 1st quarter.
Brewster carries over left guard, and breaks a tackle at the line of scrimmage. He spins past the the filling safety and he's up the sideline! He crosses midfield, the 40, 30, 20, 10; finally taken down at the 7 by the opposite field corner.
51 yard gain; the longest gain by the Tennessee offense all year!
FIRST DOWN, TENNESSEE!
Momentum is on our side. The crowd going nuts. Rocky Top in our ears.
Option right, and the end crashes onto me. The pitch to Brewster nearly gives us the touchdown, but he's stopped a yard short.
Option left on 2nd down and goal, and this time Brewster takes the pitch and runs to the corner of the endzone!
TOUCHDOWN, TENNESSEE!!
Ray Alston adds the extra point.
2:26 left in the 1st quarter; Tennessee 7, Ole Miss 0.
