KNOXVILLE, Tenn. (AP) — Dylan Sampson scored his third touchdown of the game on a 1-yard run in overtime to give No. 8 Tennessee a 23-17 victory over Florida on Saturday night.
The Volunteers (5-1, 2-1 Southeastern Conference) went to overtime for only the second time. The first was in 1998 when they won the national title.
Trey Smack missed a 47-yard field goal try for Florida (3-3, 1-2) on the first overtime possession.
“Once (Florida) missed the field goal, I knew we would win,” Sampson said.
