 Moore was brought back for the Sugar Bowl game against the #10 Tennessee Volunteers, and at first his presence kept Tennessee wary and prevented them from stacking the line.Virginia running backs Terry Kirby and Nikki Fisher ran for over 100 yards and Virginia led 16-0 at halftime.But with a few errant long passes in the first half revealing that Moore was not the threat he had been most of the season, Tennessee tightened its defense in the second half, and battled back to win 23-22.
