The Volunteers are on the scoreboard for Super Bowl LVIII. Former Tennessee receiver Jauan Jennings not only caught to lateral from quarterback Brock Purdy, but he then threw the first touchdown of the game.
Jennings lobbed a ball back across the field to Christian McCaffrey who ran it all the way into the endzone.
Vols fans reacted properly to one of their former favorites scoring in the game:
That Jauan Jennings touchdown pass might look familiar to Tennessee football fans.

Every passing TD of Super Bowl LVIII has been thrown by an SEC player (Jauan Jennings, Tennessee). #ItJustMeansMore
