On November 26, 2011, Kentucky beat Tennessee 10–7 in Lexington, putting an end to the streak. Before Georgia Tech left the SEC, the Volunteers’ biggest rivals were the Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets, the Auburn Tigers, and Ole Miss. Realignment forced them to drop Auburn and Ole Miss from their schedule.
