Trivia Contest: Question 31

Thanks for playing everyone. In the event that groves nor kpt answer first, this will result in a tie. In THIS thread, groves and kpt will guess the TOTAL for tonight's game. Closest to wins. If groves or kpt get the question right, they will be declared the winner and we will bow at their majesty.

Question 31. Special teams

Willie Gault is the all-time leader in almost every statistical category for kick-off returns except one: yards per return in a career. That record was set by this former Vol and one of the very first Vol superstars to wear the orange. Name him

 

No one else answer. LEt these two duke it out.

 

i'll give them a half hour then i'm answering.

 

Haha.

 

Damn, I'm tempted to get on the board here.

 

Gene McEver?

 

Going have to stick with my roots and guess Bobby Dodd, But he probably isn't old enough.

 

Groves and kpt both swing and miss. DHuff, your turn...

 

Cafego

 

Nice tvols fan.

 

KPT and Groves need to put tonight's predictions itt.

 

I must confess I just happened to look this up a couple days ago. I was trying to remember Tennessee's last return touchdown, and somehow, I ended up looking up a bunch of kick return statistics from the past.

 

South Carolina 2004?

 

I'm pretty sure its Mallon Faircloth.

 

Mallon Faircloth: Returns: 13 Yds: 390 Avg: 30.0
George Cafego: Returns: 12 Yds: 391 Avg: 32.6

 

Just to blow you mind: Do you know who holds the single season KR yards record? David Oku. That was in the media presser for today's game.

 

There is no way in hell that Faircloth had only 13 KRs in his career. He played on some awful teams.

 

Tennessee 34
NCSU 21

 

Going with 47 points. UT 27-20.

I decided to pick a real score like a man rather than going one point above or below JG like a Price is Right contestant.

 

Only way to win both showcases IMO.
