Top 10 Tennessee athletic plays I've witnessed

As most of you probably know, I'm a big University of Tennessee fan. I've been a big fan since about 2006. Not just football, but basketball (mens and womens) softball and baseball as well. I will list my top 10 games/plays that I have witnessed personally in any sport.

10. Tennessee football beats Kentucky in 4 overtimes to clinch the sec eastern division championship and earn a trip to the sec championship game in 2007.

9. #19 Tennessee men's basketball defeats #2 Kentucky in 2010. This was a really exciting game;which is mainly why I put this here.

8. Tennessee men's basketball defeats Ohio State in 2010 to advance to their first ever Elite 8.

7. Tennessee women's basketball defeats LSU in last second bucket 47-46 to advance to the national championship game in 2008. They would win their 8th national championship in school history.

6. Tennessee football throttles #12 Georgia 35-14 after taking 28-0 halftime lead in 2007. Georgia was heavily favored coming into Knoxville and that didn't go so well for the Bulldogs.

5. With Tennessee having off the court issues in men's basketball in 2010, nobody gave Tennessee a chance against #1 Kansas. Especially with most of UT's starting lineup being suspended. Never underestimate the heart of a volunteer. Vols pulled the shocker, 76-68 in Knoxville.

4. Tennessee softball advances to their 6th women's college world series by beating Alabama in 2013. Nothing better than beating Bama!

3. Tennessee football returns an interception in Overtime against Vanderbilt to defeat the commodores 27-21. Not a lot of bright moments the last few years in football, but this was definitely one of them.

2. 2013 Tennessee softball defeats Texas to advance to the women's college world series championship series. They ended up losing to Oklahoma and being the national runner up but it was a great moment.

1. 2013 Tennessee football upsets #11 South Carolina. First ranked team they had beaten since 09 and first time they've beaten a top 15 team since 07. Both times were South Carolina. There was finally a big win for football and with what this program has been through, this is why this game is #1. It was a great day to be a vol! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LITzgUYv8ag
