I really don't get why people say this....the facts are simple. If we had stayed ahead of USA like we should have, I am almost certain Ferguson or maybe Dobbs come in late in the game. As it was, we had to struggle to win. No way, no how, do you bring a true frosh into that situation. Yes, Worley had made three ints, but we were running the ball pretty well earlier in the game. Limit Worley, run the ball, eat clock and let the D stop them.

It worked. Bring Ferg in to the game in that situation would have been really, truly, horribly stupid.

I suspect we are going to see one of them next week when the game (very likely) gets way out of hand in either the second or third quarter. But we will see....

In the meantime, I am sick of hearing that "Butch doesn't want to burn a red shirt". Do people seriously think we will go the entire season with getting a backup some reps ?(Peterson is out for the season!)

Honestly, how do some people tie their shoes in the morning? I'm SERIOUS!!!!!

Everyone has strengths. Some can tie their own shoes. Some know the name of the backup quarterback.

I think Coach Jones will not play either freshman QB until the brutal part of our schedule is over. This gives them more time to get ready and increases their chances of being successful. Plus it gives the staff more time to evaluate both of them.

I used to enjoy visiting Volnation when there were more posters with some commonsense and many more were courteous to one another. So many whine and complain about the minute things. Many of you do not have the patience for any coach to come in and rebuild the Vols. Give the guy some time. No one can build a cadillac with a plow-horse. If you have such a terrible time watching the team lose, then turn off the tv or quit going to the games. There is more to life than a football game or team.

Did Tiny and Worley get into it?

Or was a responsible teammate (Worley) keeping a key member of the team (Tiny) from going across the field and tearing the head off that USA player that would have probably caused an NCAA violation and caused him to be suspended for a game or two?

Fact, we have no idea what they were discussing and furthermore, Worley could have shown some leadership by getting up in Tiny's face. We have no idea what transpired and other than idiot fans creating bold posts about "Tiny called Worley an assclown" the truth probably won't come out. What's between the team is between the team.

Let's not go creating drama unless the facts are known...

Don't let facts get in the way of a good story

Can Butch, staff, and us fans keep the team from unraveling and giving up this season? I believe in CBJ, but after seeing Tiny and Worley get into it, i wonder if our team will hold it together thru this grueling schedule. I Hope so. GBO

The question is will the players listen to Butch after we drop the next three games by double digits
