Appropriaely enough for Halloween, the ghost of Johnny Majors visited Neyland Stadium Saturday night and may have cost Tennessee the game and a shot at the SEC Championship.
Early in the second half, the Vol defence came up with a brilliant goal line stand. Unfortunately, the UT offence went into a coma, running up the middle three times and punting.
Spurrier capitalized on Fulmer's timidity by driving 40* yards for the Gamecocks first touchdown in over eight quarters. The Vol offence responded quickly by throwing four straight screen passes and punting.
Chavis is doing his part by playing a very soft, prevent defence that true to its name will prevent the Vols from winning.
South Carolina just scored again, and unless Fulmer and Chavis get their collective act together, this game will go from a Tennessee rout to a loss.
And you can chalk it up solely to the coaching.

Heck, at this point, even Johnny Majors would be a relief (but I agree about the limited play calling - remember those home and home games against Notre Dame in the early 90s, the one at Neyland it seemed like he called a 15 yard post 6 or 7 times in a row).
