And the Gruden rumors commence. Lol!

I just want it to end honestly. 1 knee injury is enough.

So, you want them to stop practicing?

So, you want them to stop practicing?

It was basically the end when I said that though. Nice try, smartass

Jump the gun much. We have no idea how serious Saulsberry's injury is, and there is still 2 weeks till the first game. Probably a month before we really need him. Might be minor and he is only out for a few days. Jeez, calm the f down.

Our interior defensive line is in trouble with or without Saulsberry. Wouldn't be surprised to see Robertson moved back to defense and for Hendrix to start getting some work on the inside if he's not already.

Beautiful fade from Peterman to Croom for a short TD.

Haters going to hate! Obviously Peterman patrol!

Our interior DL is in trouble this fall

Or maybe our O Line is better than everyone thinks!

False. Even with Saulsberry we were going to have poor interior DL play this year, this just makes it worse. The injury isn't good either.

Patrick Brown: Butch said freshman safety Todd Kelly "had his best couple of days of practice he's had."

Thank you to the 40,000 fans that came to open practice tonight. Just shows how great it is to be a Volunteer!

Todd Kelly Jr. (TK) @ToddKellyJr6
I love being a Tennessee Volunteer, tonight's open practice showed that we have the best fans in the country!

I missed this new tradition. Anyone know what it is?

I believe Butch made reference to the new rule concerning noise. (NOTEBOOK: SEC expands time allowed for artificial noise - Dothan Eagle: University Of Alabama Sports) So on 3rd downs they play the "3rd down for what" noise and graphic to hype the crowd.

Glad to hear TK2 is doing well. I can't wait to see him play!!

There was something he started last year. When we make a third down stop people are supposed to raise a fist.

Von Pearson on the crowd during 'Third Down for What': “When they get turned up, we feel like we can play better. So that helped a lot.”

So....how did the run game go?

Patrick Brown: Butch said #Vols would know more about Trevarris Saulsberry's injury "tonight and into tomorrow."

 

[vollygirl]

I could not believe how loud it got when Jones called for 3rd down noise from the fans. Amazing.

 

[JDisThereThere]

False. Even with Saulsberry we were going to have poor interior DL play this year, this just makes it worse. The injury isn't good either.

Well yeah that is most definitely true, we were never going to have an elite D-Line this year. However, I think they could be better than last year's line, quicker and faster at least. I was more talking about Saulsberry's injury, and we really don't know for sure how bad it is. Hope he makes a quick recovery.

That sucked. Hate to see anyone go down, especially some one trying to come back.

Hopefully its not too serious but it didnt appear that way.

Yeah on the edges they should be better, but man the DT's have their hands full.
