I almost had a nervous breakdown because of how big a day Georgia running back Robert Edwards had in this game before he got hurt i think he had over 200 yards rushing. I think if he would have stayed healthy Georgia may have been 10-1 in 1995.137 days.........
In 1995, the Vols hosted Georgia. A young Peyton Manning threw for over 300 yards, but the steady running of Jay Graham helped keep Georgia’s offense off the field. Graham had 28 carries for 137 yards. He was the only Vol with positive yards on the ground in the 30-27 victory.View attachment 363876
Here is the program from the 1979 Tennessee 40-18 win over Notre Dame in Knoxville

Ricky Bell was a good running back but he was never in the class of Tony Dorsett. Seattle could have drafted Tony Dorsett also but they drafted Tulsa tackle Steve August who wound up being a flop in the NFL.Tampa Bay chose Rickey Bell over Tony Dorsett...........Rickey had a nice career, that was cut way too short due to a disease, but wasn’t Tony. Imagine how history would have changed
Here's the program and game film from Tennessee's 17-3 win over Georgia in Athens in 1969. Curt Watson had around 200 yards rushing in this game.
