Overachieved

[Vol8188]

10 wins and a playoff birth, both are more than was expected in the preseason.

Y’all still wanna fire everyone?

Well we could have beat Vandy by more so I say a public flogging is the best I can do.

Heup took over a dumpster fire and 4 years later he's 36-14. The man is one helluva a HC

 

[AdoptedVOL]

I for one am always looking for ways to improve. It’s not bad to trade up or bring in competition at all positions.

 

[jcvols24]

Overachieving or not, there are times we could have and should have been better. I'm glad we're playoff bound, but we have a lot of room to improve and that's on the coaches to fix.

The slow starts are sooooo frustrating because this team has the ability to be really on fire but there is no denying what Heupel has done in the last 3 years. First 3 in a row 9+ win seasons in over 2 decades and now with 4 seasons he is 2 10 win seasons and we are going to the PLAYOFFS!

It is all in front of us. If we wake up and play to our ability, we CAN WIN IT ALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL!

I would just like to see us play a clean game one time. No turn overs and less than four penalties. No telling how good we really could be. The false starts and off sides drive me nuts

Totally agree but I’m glad we are in the playoffs

 

[CR-vol]

I heard during the game we're 122nd in FBS in penalties. Makes it hard to imagine us getting far in the playoffs. But hey it was a great regular season for sure!

 

[utvolpj]

We hit what I thought would happen but I'm usually optimistic. Took out uf and Bama which we really needed. Only one bad loss but we get into the playoffs anyways. Now anything can happen

 

[StarRaider]

kaint win it unless yer in it an the VOLS are in it.

Speak for yourself. I expected a natty!

 

[VawlDave]

There were people that really posted “this game is over” after the first play of the Vandy game.

 

[orchidvol]

10 wins in two of the past three seasons. 9 wins in the other season. Two of three over both Florida and Alabama. Orange Bowl win, Citrus Bowl win, and made the playoffs. I'll take that all day.

Vandy beat Alabama and took Texas to the wire. This Tennessee team needs to continue to improve but they overcame some adversity today to prevail.

Bottom line, Heupel has done an amazing job here.

The two worst calls were the facemask penalty in the first half and the horse collar call later. Good grief, it's football, let em play

I agree! Followed by a public beheading “The Lottery,” style for all my literature heads.

Weird to post things that are true about all teams. Your statement is equivalent of saying “all of our players are homosapiens”…yeah buddy, they are!

What’s your point?

 

[Cartervol]

Errrbody!

Lmfao. How often does anyone do that?

 

[volbound1700]

We return a lot of this team next year as well. Cooper Mays and the defensive line losses will hurt but most of the rest will return.

 

[MurphyVol]

It's been a bizarre season but the Vols have definitely overachieved.

Not scoring a single point in a half for four straight games and going 3-1 is nuts.

JH has made some decisions this season that have seemed really out of character, but he's 10-2, in the playoffs and obviously knows what he's doing.

 

[MemphisVol77]

Heup took over a dumpster fire and 4 years later he's 36-14. The man is one helluva HC

That puts him at a .720 winning percentage. We fired Fulmer at .745.

Heupel's still on probation.....

Some of our fans are downright embarrassing and they have no idea.

 

[FLVOL_79]

Tis the season..

 

[UTFranklinVol]

If we had a more experienced QB it's not hard to see this team being undefeated. Next year should be really good. I'm glad we made the 1st ever 12 team playoff. We deserve it as a blue blood football program.

Imagine if we had just beaten Arkansas like we should have. We would be in the SECCG playing for an auto bid. It can ALWAYS be better. Never settle keep pushing for more!
