I Know What You Did Last Week: A quick look at how Tennessee's remaining opponents have performed up to this point in the season.
Georgia Bulldogs
- Week 1: Lost to Boise State in the Georgia Dome 35-21.
- Week 2: Lost to the South Carolina Gamecocks 45-42.
- Week 3: Took out their frustrations against the "Coastal Carolina Chanticleers," (real team or not -- you decide!) beating them 59-0. Dawg Sports says this game at least fell on the right side of the "bad to expected" continuum.
- Week 4: Beat the Ole Miss Rebels on the road, 27-13.
- Beat the Mississippi St. Bulldogs at home 24-10. Dawg Sports isn't happy, though, especially with the diminishing returns of the Georgia offense, as you can see here:

That makes it look like they were given some of those early points, or perhaps they were earned with good defense and special teams. But those two early drives were a combined 55 yards or so, so, you know, field position. And they did throw three interceptions and miss a field goal, so hey. Oh, and a Mississippi St. player peed on the hedges, which is nice.
LSU Tigers
- Week 1: Beat the Oregon Ducks in Cowboys Stadium 40-27.
- Week 2: Beat the Northwestern St. Demons 49-3.
- Week 3: Beat Mississippi State 19-6.
- Week 4: Went to Morgantown and whipped the West Virginia Mountaineers 47-21.
- Beat Kentucky 35-7. Moving on.

- Week 2: Beat Penn State 27-11.
- Week 3: Made the North Texas Mean Green earn their paycheck, 41-0.

South Carolina Gamecocks
- Week 1: Beat the Pirates Who Don't Do Anything on the road 56-37.

- Week 3: Narrowly escaped the Navy Midshipmen 24-21.
- Week 4: Beat Vandy 21-3.
- Week 5: Lost to Auburn 13-16. Marcus Lattimore ran 17 times for only 66 yards against what had been a horrid rush defense. Somebody get that tape.

Arkansas Razorbacks
- Week 1: Beat the Missouri State Bears at home 51-7.
- Week 2: Beat the New Mexico Lobos 52-3.
- Week 3: Beat the Troy Trojans of Troy (We're from Troy!) (HT) 38-28.
- Week 4: Lost to Alabama 38-14. No shame.
- Week 5: Beat A&M 42-38. Solid win. No, they didn't both play in the same direction. The drive chart program doesn't like ampersands, and I don't like sifting through code I learned years ago for this sole purpose and then promptly forgot.

Vanderbilt Commodores
- Week 1: Beat the Elon Phoenix at home 45-14.
- Week 2: Beat Connecticut 24-21.
- Week 3: Beat Ole Miss 30-7, and I have no idea why the drive chart program has decided to insult Ole Miss by referring to them as an FCS school. If it wasn't funny, I'd look into that.
- Week 4: Lost to South Carolina 21-3.
- Week 5: Bye.
Kentucky Wildcats
- Week 1: Narrowly escaped the towel 14-3 in Nashville.
- Week 2: Beat the Central Michigan Chippewas 27-13.
- Week 3: Lost to the Louisville Cardinals 24-17.
- Week 4: Lost to Florida 48-10.
- Week 5: Lost to LSU 35-7.
