No surprise here. Congrats to Jalin and the whole offense!

OFFENSIVE
Jalin Hyatt, WR, Tennessee
- Hyatt delivered arguably the greatest wide receiver performance in school history as No. 6/8 Tennessee downed No. 3/1 Alabama, 52-49, as time expired for the Vols first victory in the series since 2006.
- He caught six passes for 207 yards and a school-record and SEC-record-tying five touchdowns. Hyatt became the fifth player in SEC history to catch five or more touchdowns in a game and the first since Alabama's DeVonta Smith vs. Ole Miss in 2019.
- Hyatt's 207 receiving yards ranked sixth in Vol single-game history and were the most by a UT player in an SEC contest since Denarius Moore had 228 vs. South Carolina on Oct. 30, 2010.
- He was the first FBS player to have 200-plus receiving yards and five or more touchdowns since Smith in that 2019 Ole Miss game. Hyatt also tied the single-game program record for points with 30, a mark that evened with Gene McEver who had 30 points vs. South Carolina in Dec. 7, 1929.
- Hyatt caught touchdown passes of 36-, 11-, 60-, 78- and 13-yards. He had two huge ones in the fourth quarter with the 78-yarder and then the game-tying 13-yard score with 3:26 remaining the game that culminated a 75-yard drive.
- Hyatt became the first player to register three or more touchdowns and 100 receiving yards or more against Alabama in the Nick Saban era.
- He was the first FBS player with five or more receiving touchdowns vs. an AP top-five team since NC State's Terry Holt did so vs. No. 3 Florida State on Nov. 8, 1997.
