I Come in Peace

[Will74]

Vol Nation Community,

I come in peace and will introduce myself as someone who really enjoys getting to know another fan base, especially those in the SEC, prior to a bowl style game.

Been snooping around reading about the Vols on this site the last 24 hours and figured I’d make an account.

I grew up in Ohio but now live in NC (cue the go back to Ohio sayings). However, my mom’s whole side of the family is from the south. Her family moved up to Ohio for my grandpas job and she ended up meeting my dad at OSU. I’ve been a rabid fan of the Buckeyes since birth and graduated from OSU. Made a life decision and picked heading south for greener pastures for work post grad.

Have met quite a few TN fans & actually attended the NC St vs Tenn game in Charlotte this year.

I’m TBD on going to the game as it’s close to Christmas and have some other impt items to tend to. Last game I went to was the UGA Peach Bowl game. Might never recover from that loss but sitting field level behind the bench that had CJ Stroud and Marvin Harrison Jr was really cool.

If y’all have any questions on Columbus or OSU in general, I’ll do my best to help out. Looking fwd to friendly banter. Really cool that two historic programs can meet in this atmosphere. FYI - my dad was at the citrus bowl between Peyton and Eddie. Claims his feet are still damp to this day.

We are Vols .We welcome anybody with open arms .Now they might be some real bags on here but if they start flapping there mouth they not Vols.We all can have a good conversation and be level headed .I promise we don't throw mustard bottles at just anybody.I hope for a good game and maybe we can help you get rid of the just for men poster boy.

Good Luck with half these douchers, they make the rest of our fans look bad. I'm in the minority here, but I truly don't like our chances of winning. We've been very inconsistent on the road. If the Ohio St offense that played Oregon or Indiana shows up, it's gonna be a long night for us Vol fans. I hope we get the Michigan version. Thanks for coming onand introduceing yourself. Don't judge all Vol fans by the few classless, dumba$$es on here. Half our fanbase fights with each other more than opposing fanbase and just come off as ignorant, trailer trash. Congratulations on making the playoffs and looking forward to the game! Stay safe!

And you feel like you are a good representative?

 

[Other_Guy]

So how bad is OSU’s offensive line?

Bro just went for it

Once upon a time there was a @peacefulbuckeye poster… Ever run into him in your travails before setting up your account today?

 

[CharlotteBuckeye]

Mike Vrabel is going to be a volunteer coach for the Vols for two weeks to do his part.

He might be in cbus with the highest paying position for a state employee in January haha.

Nope - he’s not the Clark Kent to Superman of myself either.

So your wear glasses and he obviously didn’t with his trolling efforts.

Have you considered Greg Schiano? I hear he’d be a home run hire.

Might have to call Clay Travis if that happens and have him rally the troops.

Way, way back in the day, as a kid, besides the Vols, I liked the buckeyes b/c of Archie Griffin and b/c they were on TV seemingly every week w/ Keith Jackson calling the game.

Also, just fyi...

Looking back at Tennessee's one-game history with Ohio State

Ohio State has been playing football since 1890. Tennessee has done so since 1891. But the two teams have met only once on the football field.

Some of my earliest memories is my dad yelling at the tv bc of this ‘John Cooper’ character. Didn’t know he came back as some guy named Ryan Day.

Have you lost anyone good to the portal yet?

Also, you guys seem more of a "finesse" team. I realize you have a very stingy D but honestly, when I saw your line play, both on O and D, it didnt seem like a lot of beef and relies more on mobility. SEC is a war of the trenches type place. Our SEC player of the year RB, Sampson just plows through opposing lines even when they KNOW he is getting the ball (sadly, because too often we just keep doing it when IMO we should go over the top). On the other hand, our D has handled everyone not named GA.

Looking for your take on the line matchups. I know you guys do have some real talent position players.

 

[Carl Pickens]

Welcome to Volnation!! The game should be in Knoxville.
Falling only four places after that loss to Michigan is the epitome of favoritism

The Vols fell 4 places after beating Florida

We’ve lost 5 guys but no one significant (I guess the back up QB is, but we have 3 5 stars that will be sophomores next year).

The o line is a product of weaker than expected recruiting and then losing 2 top round talent guys definitely hurts.

The d line is great on paper. The two DTs are both NFL guys that can cause issues on the inside. JTT and Jack Sawyer are the two ends and are top 3 round pick guys. However, the d line can get ‘stale’ sometimes if we only blitz 4.

Jim Knowles can get creative and did against Indiana (large talent disparity there as well). Our defense is at its best when we’re rotating 8ish guys in on the line.

My biggest concern in this game is 1) o line not holding up 2) d line not getting pressure and allowing Nico to have some easy throws with all day in the pocket.

I was there too. I had my two year old son covered in waterproof gear all day long and had to deal with his mad Mom

The Vols fell 4 places after beating Florida

I went back and looked week to week.
I did not see any other team that fell only 4 spots after a loss. (and this was a ugly loss at home when favored by 20)

 

[Eastknox865]

81 was a good year. Got married in 81, 1981 not 1881, hardy har har.

I was 3 yeah that was a great year

Exactly….. a loss to a 20.5 point underdog. It’s crazy

I think you're gonna fit in here just fine

Does Urban Meyer return to Columbus once Ryan Day gets kicked to the curb?

I can relate to your history. I am from Tennessee and live here now, but most of my family moved from Tennessee, Memphis actually when Ford Motors moved to Lorain, Ohio. That was a huge corporate move back in that time period.
My Dad was working at Ford, and he said “no way he was moving up there with those damn Yankees.”
No disrespect intended, but every time I visited family there I said to myself, “thank you Dad”
Bet you are liking North Carolina.
Go Vols!
