See Tennessee Vols football's Alontae Taylor run back interception for TD to change game vs. Kentucky
Alontae Taylor talked about it during this past week. And he has a point — Tennessee has beaten Kentucky a lot over the years.
"One thing, when I came in (to Tennessee), you don't lose to Kentucky," Taylor said to media during the week.
The senior cornerback is doing his best to ensure the vols won't lose to Kentucky in 2021, picking off a poorly thrown Will Levis pass and returning it 56 yards for a touchdown in the third quarter.
Tennessee has had some easy touchdowns in Saturday's game, and Taylor's pick-six was among the easiest.

The Vols have had the ball for the less than seven minutes in Saturday's game in Lexington, but they've scored 38 points with it.
Taylor's touchdown is about the only bright spot for the Vols defense so far, as Kentucky has gained over 400 yards in two-and-a-half quarters. But the pick-six, a fourth-down stop and a missed field goal in the first half is the difference in the game to this point.
