Saturday's game between Florida and Tennessee was a horrible display of football for 59:51, but nine seconds of brilliance turned it into an instant classic.
With the ball on the Gators' 37-yard line and the score tied at 20, Feleipe Franks launched an absolute bomb to Tyrie Cleveland for a 63-yard winning touchdown as time expired.
Going forward, the Volunteers should probably avoid giving the Gators opportunities from their own 37-yard line.
It's the second straight game between the teams in Gainesville that's been decided in dramatic fashion with a 63-yard play. Their 2015 affair saw the Gators score from their own 37 on a fourth-and-14 with 1:26 to play for the win.
