GAINESVILLE, Fla. - Rocky Top is very rocky indeed.

Amid trust issues between players and coaches, the 2011 Tennessee Volunteers football team finished a woeful season in the SEC with a 1-7 record in the conference, good enough for dead last in the East Division.

The Vols impressive 26-game winning streak against Kentucky was snapped, and the losing streak to Florida grew to 7-games after a 33-23 loss in Gainesville.

Head coach Derek Dooley is on the hot seat in Knoxville, but thinks he's done enough to build team chemistry and get players ready to compete for four quarters to compete against anyone in the SEC.
