7. Tennessee 45 Northwestern 6 (2015)

The Vols’ demolition of Northwestern in 2015 was what made Tennessee one of the most hyped teams of 2016.

And regardless of the outcome of the 2016 season, that hype, even in retrospect, was very important.

The immediate post-season hype of the Volunteers was a big help in recruiting.

It also provided the Vols with plenty of exposure in the national media, which is always a good thing.

And perhaps most important, the win gave Tennessee their ninth victory of the season, their most since the 2007 season.
