Awards and honors

The 1993 Tennessee Volunteers football team did not win they SEC East, nor did they win their respective bowl game. The proud tradition of Alabama football took a severe hit later that when the NCAA put the Crimson Tide on probation for three years, including a ban on postseason games after this season, and forced the school to forfeit eight victories and a tie from 1993.

You may be wondering. How does this effect The Tennessee Volunteers? Well it’s simple. One of the Vols games that year was a tie with Alabama, who which we know now, forfeited 10 of their victories and the tie with Tennessee. So after the subtraction of that one tie, the Tennessee Volunteers were tied with the Florida Gators for a SEC co-championship after this discovery.

There were later findings that Cornerback Antonio Langham's signing with an agent hours after Alabama clinched that sixth championship with a victory over Miami in the 1993 Sugar Bowl led to one of the infractions cited by the NCAA. Another infraction involved former defensive back Gene Jelks, who received $24,400 in improper loans from August 1989 through May 1990.
