KNOXVILLE, Tenn. -- Tennessee quarterback Joshua Dobbs made his final home game one to remember.Not even having his team knocked out of the Southeastern Conference Eastern Division race could ruin his day.Dobbs threw three touchdown passes and ran for two more scores -- including a career-long 70-yarder -- as Tennessee won a 63-37 shootout with Missouri on Saturday.I definitely had a blast, Dobbs said. Its not really an end. We obviously still have a couple of games left, but its an enjoyable opportunity and I definitely enjoyed it tonight.Tennessees hopes of reaching the SEC championship game vanished when No. 21 Florida upset No. 16 LSU 16-10 earlier Saturday to clinch its second straight SEC East title.Theres still a lot to play for, Dobbs said. Our legacys on the line, how we want to leave Tennessee.Dobbs was 15 of 22 for 223 yards Saturday with two touchdown passes to Jauan Jennings and one to Josh Malone. He rushed for a career-high 190 yards on just 10 carries. He even helped lead Tennessees Pride of the Southland band after the game.It was an impressive farewell to Neyland Stadium for a guy who has served as the face of Tennessees program while balancing his quarterback responsibilities with his academic demands as an aerospace engineering major.Im not very political, but he could be the president of the United States if he wanted to, Tennessee coach Butch Jones said.The Vols (8-3, 4-3 SEC) won despite allowing 740 yards in total offense, the highest single-game total ever by a Tennessee opponent. Troy gained 721 yards in a 55-48 loss to Tennessee in 2012.Damarea Crockett rushed for 225 yards and Ish Witter gained 163 yards to lead a 420-yard rushing attack for Missouri (3-8, 1-6). The Tigers gained 600-plus total yards for the fourth time this season.Offensively thats a pretty good day, Missouri coach Barry Odom said. I didnt have enough answers defensively to put us there to win it.Crockett had the second-highest single-game rushing total ever by a Tennessee opponent. Mississippis Dexter McCluster rushed for 282 yards against Tennessee in 2009.Tennessees John Kelly rushed for 101 yards and a touchdown. Alvin Kamara ran for 55 yards and two scores.The Vols were clinging to a 35-30 lead when Dobbs made a move around Missouris Thomas Wilson at the line of scrimmage and raced for a 70-yard touchdown with 13:20 remaining.Tennessee took command from there.THE TAKEAWAYMissouri: The Tigers season-long kicking woes hurt them again Saturday.Missouri missed an extra-point attempt for the sixth time this season at the end of the Tigers first series. Missouri also had gone 5 of 12 on field-goal attempts this season before Saturday.The Tigers kicking game has struggled so much that they decided to go for it rather than attempting a field goal while facing fourth-and-12 from the Tennessee 20 early in the second quarter. After Missouri was penalized for a false start, the Tigers still kept their offense on the field to try converting the first down on fourth-and-17 from the 25. The drive ended with an incomplete pass.Tennessee: The Vols defense remains extremely vulnerable, particularly against the run. Missouri put up huge numbers against Tennessee one week after the Vols allowed 443 yards rushing in a 49-36 victory over Kentucky. Tennessee also gave up 353 yards rushing to Texas A&M and 409 to Alabama this season.POLL IMPLICATIONSThis win could help Tennessee get back into the Top 25.

OAKLAND, Calif. -- You can call right-hander Kendall Graveman the Oakland As last starting pitcher standing or, as manager Bob Melvin did Sunday, the Lone Ranger.Graveman will make his team-high 22nd start of the season Monday against Baltimore, which is only fitting for the only member of the teams original rotation who has avoided a trip to the disabled list.Hes been great and consistent for us, healthy, has a great work ethic, Melvin said before Sundays 3-1 loss to the Cubs. So its nice to have at least one guy in the rotation that started the year.As right-hander Sonny Gray (strained right forearm) was placed on the 15-day disabled list Sunday for the second time this season. He had an earlier DL stint with a strained right trapezius. Left-hander Rich Hill had two trips to the DL before being traded to the Dodgers. Chris Bassitt had season-ending Tommy John surgery, as did Felix Doubront, who was slated to be the fifth starter before being injured in the final exhibition game.The As current DL includes starting pitchers Jesse Hahn (strained right shoulder) and Henderson Alvarez, who has had two setbacks this year as he tries to come back from right shoulder surgery he had in July 2015. Right-hander Jarrod Parker is also on the DL. He had Tommy John surgery in March of 2014 and surgery for a fractured bone in his elbow in May of 2015.Ive been fortunate, Graveman said. Something Ive never had to deal with is arm issues. Even in college. I take pride in being able to go out every day, every time its my turn to go. Its tough to watch a lot of friends, a lot of teammates go through injuries.Graveman (7-7) has set a career high for wins and will set a career high for starts on Monday. Graveman went 6-0, setting a career high for consecutive wins, with a 3.25 ERA, 34 strikeouts and 14 walks over 10 outings before struggling his past two starts.Graveeman allowed four runs (three earned) on six hits over 6 1/3 innings in a 5-3 loss to Cleveland on July 29.dddddddddddd Then he gave up six runs over four innings and got a no-decision in an 8-6 loss to the Angels on Wednesday.Last week I thought I got out of the delivery that Id been repeating for six, seven even eight weeks, Graveman said, Just to get back to it in my bullpen this week was a positive. To be able to turn that leaf and say, Hey, Im going to go back and not try to overthrow the baseball and get back to the regular sink in the bullpen and carry that over to the next game. Its exciting. Weve got another good team, another good hitting lineup coming in in Baltimore.You just got to continue to make pitches and you got to believe, as the old saying goes, that sometimes good pitches beat good hitters.The As were swept three games by the Cubs, who have the major-leagues best record at 69-41, and fell a season-high 15 games under .500 (48-63).The Orioles are 63-47 after a 10-2 victory Sunday against the White Sox. They lead the American League East by one game over Toronto.The Orioles had five home runs Sunday, including three by third baseman Manny Machado, who became the second player in major league history to homer in the first, second and third innings of a game. He had a career-high seven RBI.Ive been trying to find my swing, Machado said. This whole series, Ive been squaring up some balls, which is fun, and today they finally went out of the park.Right-hander Kevin Gausman will make his 20th start of the season for Baltimore. After a rough start against Toronto, he bounced back Wednesday in a 3-2 win against Texas. He allowed two runs on seven hits over seven innings, striking out seven and walking one. ' ' '
