KNOXVILLE, Tenn. (AP) — Jarrett Lee threw two touchdown passes, and Spencer Ware caught one and ran for another score as No. 1 LSU stayed unbeaten with another rout, 38-7, against hapless Tennessee on Saturday.The win was the seventh straight by a double-digit margin for the Tigers (7-0, 4-0 Southeastern Conference) and marked the second consecutive season they've swept their three SEC East foes.Matt Simms, making his first start of the season for Tennessee (3-3, 0-3) in place of the injured Tyler Bray, was 6-of-20 for 128 yards and two interceptions against one of the nation's best defense.It marked a departure in the series between the two teams in which three of the last four games have been decided by a touchdown or less, including last year's bizarre finish in Baton Rouge when LSU scored the winning touchdown after the game was extended by a Tennessee penalty for too many men on the field.Twice LSU started drives on Tennessee's side of the field, and both times the Tigers turned the field position into touchdowns.The Vols had crossed midfield when Simms, making his first start of the season, connected with Rajion Neal on a 38-yard pass that was ruled out of bounds but overturned on review. On the next play, Simms aimed deep for Da'Rick Rogers but hit LSU's Morris Claiborne instead.Claiborne returned the interception 89 yards, but Zach Rogers caught up with him at the Tennessee 5.
