(AP) — Tennessee quarterback Jarrett Guarantano 3rd 2:18 UT Cimaglia 27-yard field goal (8-65-2:14) 21-24 expected a difficult time at South Carolina. He also expected the 16th- 4th 10:48 SC White 35-yard field goal (9-69-3:55) 24-24 ranked Vols to come out on top, no matter how hard things got. 4th 9:35 UT Palmer 32-yard pass from Guarantano (Cimaglia kick) (4-75-1:13) 24-31 The Vols squandered a two-touchdown lead in the second half and 4th 3:16 SC White 45-yard field goal (9-57-3:55) 27-31 held on to defeat the Gamecocks 31-27 for their seventh straight victory.
