Hour before Vol Walk
3 hours before kickoff.
Yup, these people need pumped in crowd noise

Speed bump ahead of our next step in our 16 step journey this season.

15-1

Didn’t realize that we were standing next to Caleb Herring’s Mom at first. She’s very nice and multiple players stopped to say hi to her. Caleb just hung out for a minute took pictures with the little kids.

We have such great people representing our Volunteers! VFLs everywhere!

Have I mentioned that It’s Great To Be A Tennessee Volunteer!!!?
Well, it sure is!

15-1

Isn’t he 2nd string this week? Brissett (sp) is hurt….right?



Edit:::: I’m wrong. Thought I read that

I thought I read that too. It was a Vol QB moving to #2 because of an injury, I'm sure. . . who else would it be?

Coaches poll

 

[Enki_Amenra]

When is the last time you made Rice Krispies treats? Do you add anything extra, like chocolate chips, peanut butter, or cinnamon, when you make them?

 

[Enki_Amenra]

I had a revelation that could cure our problems. . .

What if we just start practicing in the evening!?

 

[smokeyhuntsgators]

I’m honestly surprised Pavia has survived this long taking 15-20 carries a game along with taking hits as a QB.

Look forward to him facing our defense!

Few weeks ago. Nothing extra. Have done honey grahams and chocolate instead of Rice Krispies before. Nothing beats the OG, though.

I don’t make them but love all of the mentioned ingredients..

 

[Enki_Amenra]

Seldon’s absence last night, especially if he’s only been in 4 games, is concerning.

I'm not too worried about players missing the PT fans think they should be getting. I'm sure Heupel/staff have detailed plans for each player to make sure they are on the best path to be successful. There is 0 reason to believe this is false (Joe Milton/Nico for example).

 

[MockingVol]

I was wondering how they would handle that.

This ish is going to be so confusing for folks.

The other part people keep forgetting that the 1-4 byes do not stipulate being a Power 4 team. It’s just the four highest ranked conference champions.

By my understanding, if the Big 12 were to get a little sloppier outside of BYU with the conference championship being between an undefeated BYU and a ~No. 20 team, and that lower ranked team won; Boise State as MWC champion would be the 4-Seed with a final ranking of ~11 compared to the final ranking of ~15 for the Big 12 Champion (Who would miss the playoffs might I add).

I made some a few days ago and added a little cinnamon. They were great. Just made some more and added some chocolate chips. Jury is still out, but expect rave reviews, .

I was thinking about adding peanut butter to the next batch. I guess you just make them like normal and then spread the PB over them like icing. . . or would you mix it in them?

All these mock brackets look strange with the #4 seed being someone like BYU, when much higher ranked teams are behind them.

Personally, I have my fingers crossed that we somehow get in as the #5 seed.

Henry's 28, in 15 games. Had 21 in regular season.

Then 21 is the next mark. Is that the all time SEC regular season record?

Shoulder injuries are tricky for RBs too. I’m more excited that Lewis has gotten to the point where the staff if comfortable enough with him that Cam can RS and focus on making sure he’s 100% for next year or ready in case of emergency later on this year.

I did like the talk about Sampson deserving to be a Heisman finalist.

I don't know the extent of the injury, but, if I were Seldon, I would want to take a RS and be sure I'm 100%. It has to be tough to have that kind of patience when you want to be playing and proving what you can do.

I think it's the 4 power 4 champions who get the bye, not the highest ranked conference champions. You do have to be a power 4 team to get a bye.

The path a 5 seed is an odd one imo.

Probably means we beat UGA and win out...then lose a real close one in the SECCG.

 

[BJWeeks]

We need at least 2 more Offensive lineman in this class plus a couple in the portal

 

[engineerVOL]

Last night when ‘Sucky drove the field to score; for once I wasn’t worried. Figured that would be one of maybe three scores, tops.

Points are fun, but having a stingy defense is MUCH BETTER.

 

[Devo182]

Moved up 70 votes. Just 8 behind #6 PSU.

Callum_Vol missed that Iowa St, TAMU, and Clemson all 3 dropped bigly for good reason. Rankings are all relative, others drop, some must rise.

 

[85SugarVol]

Seldon didn’t play yesterday. Instead Lewis was the KR.
He wasn’t on the injury report.
He’s played in 4 games and only burns his redshirt if he plays in a 5th.

The math tells me Seldon is taking a redshirt. And likely transferring.

Plove said anything on it?
