Then Waynesboro regains the lead with Anthony Davis doing the damage.
The Little Giants are up by one.

The folks at the University of Tennessee must be loving life.
Not only did the Vols beat Florida - they no longer have to deal with Steve Spurrier and now it seems like no one wants to take his place in Gainesville.
Yesterday Bob Stoops said thanks, but no thanks and last night Broncos' coach Mike Shanahan also turned down the job.
