By KATIE McVOY Associate Spores Editor

The Irish just couldn't keep their hands on the ball and they couldn't get their hands around a victory. An Irish team that only turned the ball over eight times last year found itself plagued with turnovers again, los­ ing two fumbles in the red zone and throwing an interception during a 28-18 loss to the seventh-ranked Tennessee Volunteers on Saturday. "We had the two fumbles in the red zone and those hurt us." said tailback Tony Fisher after the game. "Those were points that were supposed to be automatic whether they were three or six." Entering the game, the Irish offense faced a challenge from a Tennessee defense that is ranked seventh in the nation. But Notre Dame netted 146 passing yards, the most passing yards the Irish have had all season, and man­ aged to put together a 62-yard scoring drive in the second quarter and a 75- yard scoring drive in the fourth quarter. But the turnover story told the talc and the Irish began the month of November with a loss. "We made some mistakes that kept us from winning," head coach Bob Davie said. "We had every opportunity to win this game today and we didn't." The Irish were within scoring range four times in the first half and only managed to put three points on the board before halftime. After mounting a 7 5-yard scoring drive in the second half. the Irish only trailed the Volunteers by a field goal with three minutes to go in the fourth quarter. Volunteers linebacker Dominique Stevenson intercepted a pass from Carlyle Holiday that ended any hopes of an Irish victory. "It's been the worst time I've ever had," senior linebacker Hocky Boiman said. "We had the game. we had a great possibility of winning that game. then we just kind of let it slip away with cer­ tain things there at the end. And I'm just real disappointed with us right now."
