Max Gilbert is a 5-star recruit, was redshirted at Tennessee, then kicked last year making 20-26 FGs and was given a full scholarship just this summer to be the Vols placekicker again. Up to this kick, he's been perfect — 4-4 this season before being brought in to make the game winning kick vs. super-rival #6 ranked Georgia. For 8 long years, the Bulldogs have had the Vols number.
With the score tied at 38-38... put yourself in Max's place. Feel what he's feeling. This is me taping the game live... not knowing how it will turn out.
If you didn't see it — experience it for yourself. You can't help but feel the nervousness creep in. (watch the whole thing...)
