This game was the cherry on top of the desert. I f you didn’t see this game you missed out on one of the best games of the year. Tennessee again went out to the West Coast to start the season and just like last year came away empty handed. The game was a story of one quarterback. Kevin Kraft had a horrible first half throwing four interceptions and one was for a Tennessee touchdown that put the Vols ahead 14-7 going into halftime. Then the second half came around and Mr. Kraft turned over a new leaf. Kevin led the Bruins to a thrilling 27-24 overtime win. He went 18-25 passing in the second half with 193 yards and one touchdown. Kevin was in his element on the final drive moving around the pocket and hitting recievers left and right. UCLA had the game in hand with 27 seconds left until they decided to squib kick it and gave Tennessee good field postition. They capitalized by making a 47 yard field goal to force overtime. In overtime neither offense could get a first down. UCLA had first possesion and hit a field goal to take the lead. Tennesse had a chance to force a second overtime but their kicker missed wide left in overtime as the Bruins upset the number 18 ranked Vols.
