Florida curse has been broken

[VolStubbs]

When they were down by 10 I thought it was over. I could just see years past letting Florida, irregardless of rank, quarterback or talent, take total control like usual. They didn't give up. I'm proud of those guys. Hopefully we're not too banged up for next week.

 

[VolStubbs]

Just have to put McCoy on their 17 year old dude with a safety as backup and a spy on Milroe. Boom, game won. You're welcome Volnation

Oh and Nico has to throw some completions.

Oh and Nimrod has to catch.

Might be asking for too much.

Gut check win. That game was insane. Tennessee can play with Bama. Bama should’ve lost today as well. The SEC is just bonkers.

This team has amazing unity but this offense is gonna limit this team’s ceiling. The defense is far from perfect but the effort/execution on the money downs when we gotta have it is outstanding.

 

[Jaxon_Vol2017]

We won but I'm still pissed. Not sure how that's possible. I thought we could beat Alabama before the game, now I know we can't.

 

[hardyemt_p]

Blah, blah

 

[VolStubbs]

Nothing is going to be given this year. Every game will be a grind and a test of fortitude.

 

[Jaxon_Vol2017]

We'll play better against bama, watch

Everyone said that after Arkansas. Literally those exact words.

Not everyone, I figured we'd lose tonight. We'll see next week.

You do realize Will Muschamp and JM were undefeated against Tennessee? We have lost to just as bad Florida teams if not worse

Who were our coaches when Will and JM were there? Dooley and Pruitt?

I'd love to see Nimrod step up and be a legit deep threat. I miss Jaylin Hyatt.

Fourth quarter team maybe. First 3 quarters absolutely no way.

 

[bpalmer28]

Need to beat them 3 years in a row imo.

lol

 

[Hunerwadel]

If someone had offered you a 23-17 OT win before the game you would have taken it. You know you would.

 

[djohnnyg]

Remember the Butch win? 38-24 I think. We were down 21-3 that game. Then the next week we beat Georgia down in Athens on the hail Mary. Butch's best moment. Of course we went on to lose to Vandy that year. Uggh.

 

[UTK]

But we still suck though.

No way. Florida curse won’t be broken until we win back to back aka winning in the swamp.

 

[OrangeCola]

Maybe it has. First time I can remember us getting outplayed by them and s winning.

I mean Bama scored 27 points today and USCe scored 25. There'd be something wrong if the team with 25 won the game. So by scoring 27, the team that should have won did in fact win because they scored more points. So Alabama should not have lost today.

 

[VolsSportsFan]

We won.

But Napier is the worst Florida coach in my lifetime. He is holding that talent back.

[pimo1]

I must agree. The way we won did 2 things. Broke the curse and sealed Napier's fate. Not following through on going for 2..terrible call in hindsight. CJH going for the TD instead of the chip shot FG sent a message to the world but mostly to this team. That and the 4th and 1...those are the calls that makes a team love their coach especially when they pay off.

 

[EZE]

Leave it to a Vols fan to post something negative after a win that put it as 5-1. Come on man. Enjoy the win.

So true and so sad for those that dwell on the negative.

 

[theFallGuy]

But we still suck though.

 

[Volfan1000]

But we still suck though.

Curse will be broken when Tennessee WINS at the SWAMP.

 

[volbound1700]

Who were our coaches when Will and JM were there? Dooley and Pruitt?

Actually both played Butch Jones the most. Dooley got tail end Meyer with Muschamp and McElwain was with Butch Jones. Pruitt got Dan Mullen era.

 

[Gannon Goodson]

We went to ot with the worst Florida team in 40 years

This.
