colton jumper, number 53, on jordan scarlett. >> gary: colton jumper was a starting middle linebacker a year ago until darren kirkland replaced him and you speak to the tennessee people, they believe he's improved his game, they don't think he's kirkland but a good enough player to be an s.e.c. middle linebacker. >> verne: third down, nine. appleby. heck of a catch. >> gary: right now the tennessee secondary is conceding. some of the shorter passes. you can see buchanan right there. he was not going to bite on anything. he was looking for the double move. i think the instructions by the secondary coach, willie martinez, was if they're going to beat us on a double move, you might find yourself on the bench. >> verne: i'm not sure what
6:02 pm

6:04 pm
this has happened before to tennessee. win a big game against florida ad things could turn. now, i t to bean the east. they've got a tough stretch. a real tough stretch. if they could go 3-1 and the loss be either to a&m or alabama -- look, they've got a two-game lead over florida now if they can finis this game. >> verne: appleby back. goes across the middle. it's dropped. we'll schedule. they are at georgia next week, and at texas a&m. and then alabama here. this is the bulk of their season, and if they can get by this one, and they're not that far away, 5:21 to go. they have won nine games in succession.

6:08 pm
>> verne: up the middle. they've got the first down, plus as jordan cronsgriet made the tackle. >> verne: as jordan cronkrite made the tackle. >> gary: fans are saying where was that earlier, when they couldn't stay on the field. >> verne: into the right corner. again. beautiful pass. >> gary: coming out of the backfield, cronkrite is matched up, stays with it, gets his hand in there and then does it again. tremendous play by jumper. >> verne:94:22 to go, second and

6:10 pm
lance to helps us. each species serves a purpose. we need to protect the living things that are left. because the earth is our only home. since 1970, we've lost half of our wildlife. we're working to protect what remains. we all play a part for the greater good. >> verne: your weekend starts here. when the miami dolphins battle the cincinnati bengals. thursday night football on nfl network. a 16-play drive. 86 yards. it did take 4:10 but they've cut it to a 10-point margin. >> gary: it took 4:10 but it also took five previous series.
6:11 pm
remember, now, whether they go for an onside kick they have two time outs left. i still think you can kick this deep or pooch it to the open area. >> verne: they've got jorge powell on who is not -- >> gary: a lot of space to the side that you can pooch that over their head. >> verne: there it is, and tennessee has recovered at the 45. todd kelly jr. >> gary: i wouldn't have done it there. i would have tried to stop with my defense and save the onside kick for later. played very well. he trapped it. perfect. >> verne: most significantly, he fell on it. >> gary: yes. >> verne: jim mcelwain, second-year head coach at florida. had a marvelous year, a year ago. though they did lose their last three. here is tennessee.

6:13 pm
a smart time out. >> verne: only game in the series to go to overtime was 1998, jeff hall put tennessee in front and the extra period was a 41-yard field goal. the gators' collins cooper missed on an attempt to extend the game and tennessee fans rushed the field and took the goalposts with them. >> gary: the reason i wanted to show that is what happened there? those were the four years after peyton manning. they had four straight years. they had lost all the frustration. the year after key martin wins that game -- the year after tee martin wins that game they go on to win the national championship. could this victory, springing this win against florida move this team with a chance to win the s.e.c. championship, and if you win the s.e.c. championship you have a chance to get in the playoff. >> verne: you bet.
6:14 pm
>> verne: don't forget. we'll have the napa play of the game. third and five. florida has one time out remaining. >> gary: >> verne: that's the last time out. >> gary: remember, florida 55-yard-plus field goal kicker. still a football game. ?wish that i was on ol' rocky top? ?down in the tennessee hills? ?humming? ?whistling? ? ?home sweet home to me? ?good ol' rocky top - woo!?

6:21 pm
>> gary: they bring four again. force appleby out. it's batted down, and the streak is over. bob shoop, right there in the hat, he ended it for vanderbilt and now he's ended it for tennessee. he said, "i was hired for this job." >> verne: colton jumper. >> gary: the only way tennessee can lose is turning the it over here. they need to be very careful. >> verne: hurd going left and he will be gang tackled.
6:22 pm
>> gary: you almost have to think about taking a knee here. the only thing that can go bad is a turnover. >> verne: the streak, barring that, is complete. over. i don't know why -- you're old enough, i know. do you remember in the 1970's the sport of choice was streaking? >> gary: yeah. >> verne: guys would run onto football fields or across the academy -- >> gary: takes a knee here. >> verne: they called it streaking. i don't know how this came up spangler, our production supervisor said to me, "did you ever know walter cronkite?" and i said yes, i had met him a couple of times. he said "did you know that in the mid 1970's on the evening news with walter cronkite he referred to knoxville, tennessee as the capital of streaking. my mind works in strange ways.

6:24 pm
45 seconds to go. fourth and goal. butch jones. central michigan. cincinnati. fourth year here. graduate of -- >> gary: he will take a time out with one second to go. what a job he's done. they came here. they did not match up talent-wise. the last two years they did but they lost. four years of work to get to
6:25 pm

6:27 pm
