KNOXVILLE, Tenn. (AP) — Hendon Hooker threw for 273 yards and two touchdowns and ran for another to lead Tennessee to a 60-14 victory over South Alabama. The nonconference win gives the Volunteers (6-5) bowl eligibility in coach Josh Heupel’s first season. The Jaguars (5-6) have one more try to reach that level under first-year coach Kane Wommack. Hooker connected on 17 of 20 passes, with touchdowns going to Cedric Tillman (27 yards) and Princeton Fant (24). Jabari Small rushed for 73 yards and a pair of TDs.
