In the red zone - where the magic happens. It's tough to get there, and of the utmost importance what you do when you get there.
Offense
| Times in RZ | FG or TD in RZ | Conversion Rate | Missed FG in RZ | Turnovers in RZ | TD% in RZ | |
| Mississippi State | 17 | 14 | 82.4% | 2 | 0 | 64.7% |
| Tennessee | 29 | 26 | 89.7% | 2 | 1 | 62% |
UT's 29 times into the red zone is the most in the SEC...and half the league has played one more game than they have.
Defense
| Times in RZ | FG or TD in RZ | Conversion Rate | Missed FG in RZ | Turnovers In RZ | TD% in RZ | |
| Mississippi State | 11 | 8 | 72.7% | 1 | 2 | 45.5% |
| Tennessee | 16 | 15 | 93.8% | 0 | 1 | 50% |
How about that - only 11 times has MSU let an opponent into their red zone...that is second best in the SEC behind Alabama.
