Recruiting Football Talk VIII

[SSVol]

I dont get it. You can get drunk at home, for hundreds less. If you're into that sort of thing. Amazingly, you also dont go to jail for doing dumb crap.

Demographics matter. Your experience depends greatly on where you are in the stadium. I wouldn't say it's strictly relative to what the seats cost, but there are definite tendencies and patterns.

 

[Dobbs 4 Heisman]

Cubelic is one of my favorite CFB personalities. he is usually positive, but tends to say it like it is

I wouldn't say he's positive. He's just a football guy who understands the ins and outs of the game better than the lay person. So while fans go crazy over the result of a play he focuses on the schematics. Fans think the offense is broken because of a lack of points. He sees the All-22 footage and notices that we're only a few errors from a bunch of huge plays.

Dylan sitting on the edge of the all time UT running back record books

1 more TD, Dylan ties Tony Thompson (‘90) for 3rd
2 more TDs, Dylan ties Reggie Cobb (‘87) for 2nd
3 more TDs, Dylan ties Gene McEver (‘29) for 1st

#1 spot has stood for 95 years!

 

[Dobbs 4 Heisman]

The FF Pearce forced doesnt get talked about enough, if he didnt make that play then it could have been a much different game

He's been a beast since the Oklahoma game. Totally living up to that preseason hype despite the lack of huge stats. His performance on tape has been dominant.

Somehow I accidentally posted this in the FF.

Happy Chooseday! How nice is this message on Bama week!



October 15, 2023: Take a deep breath. You have been here before and have gained the victory. This is no different. Set yourself to stay calm and do not doubt the breakthrough that is coming. Exercise quiet reserve and patience. Ecclesiastes 7:8 The end of a thing is better than its beginning, and the patient in spirit is better than a proud in spirit.

It literally never gets old watching the replay

Dylan Sampson is having that quiet 2015 Derrick Henry heisman run. I don't know if yall remember but in 2015 the Heisman was more or less handed to Leonard Fournette after the first 2 months of the season. Derrick Henry was an afterthought until the LSU game when he went off and the Bama defense shut down Fournette. If Dylan Sampson keeps going off and we beat Alabama, Georgia and win the SEC Championship I could see Sampson being our first Heisman Trophy winner. His stats would be ridiculous and we'd probably be the #1 team in the country.

Swain said he was limping off the field after OT.

We need to find a way to win this week and get to the bye week to get healthy. We have a bunch of guys that are banged up and could use an extra week to heal and get ready for the stretch run.

I heard Debor also thinks Nico sleeps with a night light and that Neyland’s environment is nothing compared to Vanderbilt’s FWIW

To be fair, he evidently couldn’t handle Vanderbilt’s atmosphere.

 

[TN-POSSUM]

Here is the drinking pee video proof.



Taken before we drove to Florida last Saturday... God forbid what could have happened if it wasn't honored. Go Vols.

You are just more proof that VOL fans are the best fans in the world. That was absolutely the right thing to do and a fine example to other TN fans to follow. We don't want to be cursed like FSU and you kept us from that. Feel good about yourself and know that you did your part to help this team avoid disaster on our way to the playoffs. Thank you @SagginVawls! Way to give your all!

GO BIG ORANGE.

DeBoer, two weeks ago: “I read a good book about Vanderbilt Stadium a while back. It was called All Quiet on the West End Front.”

Damnit. I just perused, thanks for breakdown D4H, my day is complete.

I demand Tennessee/Iowa St play

 

[knoxvol52]

I demand Tennessee/Iowa St play

If Iowa State was in the Big Ten it would be possible. Unless I read the quote wrong. It states Big Ten vs SEC non conference games.

 

[Enki_Amenra]

Do you think Nico would have benefited more staying in for complete 4 quarters earlier in the season when we were up versus pulling him since he does have limited game experience?

No, because the OL was doing their jobs in those games. He's had 3 games where they've blown. Hopefully it doesn't wreck his pocket presents.

That would be the big 12

My bad. Haven't had enough coffee today

 

[VolsDoc81TX]

Lance heard is a problem.

But not for the opposition

 

[knoxvol52]

Is it mandatory for Diehard Tennessee Vols fans to predict that Alabama will beat The Vols Saturday?

If not someone needs to inform the FF guys, quite a few are saying Vols lose Saturday.

Just wondering.

I was thinking the SEC did not need the automatic 4 bids to the CFP in the future they are trying to get through negotiations. Thought the SEC would always get at least that many anyway. However, if the SEC goes to 9 conference games + 1 OOC game with BIG each year... it would be easy to see some deserving 3 and 4 loss SEC teams get left out of the CFP without the automatic 4 bids.

 

[MockingVol]

I didn't see that. I thought it landed near the sideline, but in bounds.

It landed just out, which means it was nearly perfectly placed for a sideline route.

Nico has been 'just off' on several passes...which is why I think he figures it out.

 

[VolsDoc81TX]

That was I think the longest OT game with the new rules. IIRC it was LSU-TAMU in 2018 that was the impetus. 7 OTs.

We were at the TAMU-LSU game. By OT #6, fans of both teams just wanted anyone to win to end the game. It was a great game from regulation through all of the OTs.
