Record: 8-3, 5-3 SEC
Coach: Phil Fulmer (ninth season, 84-17)
Key players: RB Travis Henry (1,314 yards, 11 TDs), DT John
Henderson
(12 sacks), K Alex Walls (18 of 20 FGs, 39-of-39 XPTs)
Season summary: A young team that had lost seven starters to
the NFL Draft
was expected to struggle a little, but losing the first three SEC games
is still intolerbale in
victory-spoiled Knoxville. Fortunately, freshman Casey Clausen (62.4
percent
completions) emerged from the Vols' QB mess in time to spout off five
consecutive wins
to close the season. Henry, UT's all-time rushing leader, is the glue to
the offense, and
Henderson, Anthony Sessions and Eric Westmoreland are all studs on
defense.

Record: 10-3, 6-3 Big 12
Coach: Bill Snyder (12th season, 98-43-1)
Key players: WR Quincy Morgan (1,116 yards, 14 TDs), WR Aaron
Lockett (1,397 all-purpose yards), DT Mario Fatefehi (14
tackles-for-loss)
Season summary: Looking back, this was not as dominant a
K-State team as the two prior to it. Yet the Wildcats still won 10
games, beat Nebraska and won the Big 12 North. Jonathan Beasley has had
another up and down season at quarterback, the most recent down against
Oklahoma in the championship. K-State is still very tough on defense,
led by Fatefehi up front and Jarrod Cooper and Jerametrius Butler deep.
And, as has come to be expected under Snyder, K Jamie Rheem leads some
excellent special teams.
