However, the Vols struggled in conference play, finishing with a 3-5- 3 record in the SEC. The Big Orange finished the year with a 7-5-6 overall record, marking the fifth winning season in the past six years and 15th overall in program history. UT ended the season in a three-way tie for ninth in the SEC, but missed out on the conference tournament after losing a tiebreaker with Kentucky and Georgia.
