QB Joshua Dobbs became the first player in FBS since 2003 to lead his team in rushing yards (136), passing yards (83) and receiving yards (58) in a game as he piled up 277 total yards at Florida. Dobbs' 136 rushing yards were the most by a Vol vs. Florida since Travis Stephens had 226 in 2001.

Dobbs' 62-yard rush at Florida was the longest by a Vols quarterback since at least 1978. He had a 58-yard touchdown catch in the first quarter and became the first Vols quarterback to catch a pass since Peyton Manning had a 10-yard reception vs. Arkansas on Nov. 15, 1997.

The Vols have 165 points over the first four games, marking the most through four games since scoring 167 to start the 1996 season.

The Vols have played 40 true freshmen over the last two seasons (a nation-high 23 in 2014 and 17 in 2015) for the most of any program over the last two years.

Jalen Hurd has rushed for 100 yards in four of the last five games, including three in a row (122 vs. Iowa, 123 vs. Bowling Green, 109 vs. Oklahoma and 102 at Florida).

For the first time since 1994, the Vols have had multiple games with two 100-yard rushers in the same season (vs. BGSU & at UF)

• The last time the Vols played Arkansas at Neyland Stadium was Nov. 10, 2007, when Eric Berry (2 interceptions) led UT to a 34-13 win.

• UT and Arkansas played an epic six-overtime game in Knoxville on Oct. 8, 2002. It was the most overtimes in Tennessee history and the Vols came away with a 41-38 victory as Jason Witten caught a game-winning TD pass in the sixth extra session.

• In 2000, Tennessee took a 35-0 first-quarter lead vs. Arkansas and cruised to its biggest win in the series, 63-20, as Travis Henry ran for 214 yards.

• One of the most memorable games in UT history took place vs. Arkansas in 1998 as QB Clint Stoerner famously stumbled and fumbled with 1:43 to play to allow the eventual National Champion Vols to rally for a 28-24 win.

Im trying reverse psychology. I Saud we'd beat Oklahoma and Florida, but we quit in the 2nd half. So im saying we gonna lose!

I am mad as hell about the last two games. I am sure most of us are. However, from right now until the last second of the game tomorrow im going to give positive energy to the team/coaching staff. I think we all should. The only way UT wins is with positive forward thinking. As cliche as it sounds, (because CBJ said it) be a fountain of positive energy. If we think we can win, half the battle is over. Im going to withhold from that 4th quarter "here we go again" tomorrow. UT is going to win this game tomorrow because they are the better team.
