Ever time seems Georgia Tech has the game in hand Tennessee makes a big play to get back in it.

For the second time in the game, it was wide receiver Marquez Callaway who turned a simple out-route into a 50-yard touchdown catch and run. It was his second touchdown catch of the game.

That brought the score back to within seven: 28-21 with 11:49 left in the fourth quarter.
