anticipation!

tfpOnline:Even Fulmer Hobbled

"I got blowed up on the sideline Saturday," Fulmer explained.

On the plus side for Tennessee, tailback Arian Foster was full-speed after missing most of the past three games with a sprained left ankle. Other than tape on his left foot, Foster showed no trace of the injury, cutting sharply through gaps in the line.

Fulmer praised freshman center Josh McNeil’s performance in his first college start. McNeil played all but a handful of snaps in the victory at Memphis.

Given Frogg’s injury, McNeil is sure to get a second start Saturday.

"He did really well for his first start," Fulmer said, "and I think he’s just going to continue to improve from there."

Freshman cornerback Marsalous Johnson didn’t play at Memphis despite being reinstated after a four-game suspension.

Yet Johnson participated on the Vols’ kickoff coverage team during practice Monday, a sign he could be expected to play at Georgia.

"Marsalous is doing fine. He’s worked hard," Fulmer said. "I think as we go along, he’ll definitely get a chance to contribute."

A conspicuous Monday addition to the front line of UT’s kick-return team Monday was former basketball player Stanley Asumnu, who wasn’t used the past two weeks during blowout victories over Marshall and Memphis.

tfpOnline:Fake Noise Part of Preparation

For the first time this football season, prodigious roars were pumped through loudspeakers onto the Tennessee Volunteers’ practice field Monday. The goal was to simulate the environment waiting Saturday night in Georgia’s Sanford Stadium.

"This year, Georgia is sort of looking like we looked," Meachem said. "But it’s going to be a big game. Georgia is going to bring their A game. They’re not going to lay down or blame it on their quarterbacks or whatever. They’re going to take it up at practice every day and give it their all."

tfpOnlineawgNotes,Tereshinski Feeling Fine

In Monday’s practice, Terehsinski took roughly 75 percent of the first-team snaps.

"I felt really good,"

Tereshinski said. "I was able to do really anything that we did without it bothering me.

It’s going to be 100 percent by Saturday. That’s the way I’m preparing, and that’s the way I’m looking at it."

Richt said Tereshinski looked "real comfortable" and that he had a good practice.

Tennessean:Meachem In Stride

"All of us want to be great," Meachem said. "We don't want to be known as, 'Oh, he was a good receiver, but he never reached that point where he was great.' "
After all the talk about potential his first three years at Tennessee, Meachem is finally living up to his high school billing as one of the best receivers in the country.

God I love big game weeks!!!

Good news about Foster... hopefully he can be effective.

 

[hohenfelsvol]

Think this may be a Foster - Coker combo week.

 

[OWB]

Think this may be a Foster - Coker combo week.

And what a combo it could be.

 

[Pepe_Silvia]

That would be one hell of a duo. Imagine what this offense could do if we get the running game and the passing game going. We ran for negative rushing yards against FLA and still put up 20 points on the board against a great defense.

I agree, but I can't get the notion out of my head that we play this game through the air....

 

[tmodaniel]

thanks for the post

I tend to agree. but you will have to establish some type of running game or we are going to rush 4 and drop 8 into coverage.

Dang Fade, how many guys are you all going to have on the field for defense? No wonder you all are so good.

Have you got eight to drop? Seriously, what's the depth in that secondary....

LOL..wow I really need to try and preview a post sometimes...We try and sneak a couple on the field after the snap.ardon:

Depth is pretty good. My only concern is at SC where we have a redshirt Sophmore starting.

If the only thing bad about me that you can find is that I screwed up in a post. Ill take it.

 

[Lexvol]

The rumor on Scout.com is that they may possibly move Hardesty to the slot and play Coker and Foster at TB.

 

[DEFENDTHISHOUSE]

And what a combo it could be.

i'm having visions of stewart and hayden oh that would be nice
