So. It finally happened.

After more than a decade of being force-fed Ls from the hands of the Florida Gators football team, Tennessee finally rose up and struck back, rallying from a 21-3 first half deficit on Saturday and scoring five consecutive second half touchdowns to win 38-28.

The outpouring of relief from Volunteers fans has been predictably seismic.

Good on you, Vols fans. You can only wallow so long.
