We need a "great menu reset of 2024" like what Hardee's did a while back.

This is like a Where’s Waldo. Every time I look at it, there’s something new. For instance, this lady, who’s just there for a good time. She’s a Gump, but she’s alright in my book.

She's a gump, she thought she was flipping him off.

Not good for them that we are 2022 vols with a better QB and a top 10 defense in college football....wait did I just come out to you as an overheuper?

Happy Thursday

September 5, 2024: Find a place of serenity for your soul. The world around you is hectic and can affect your sense of peace and calm. You must deliberately choose to not allow your environment to trouble you. Psalm 46:9-10 He makes wars cease to the ends of the earth. He breaks the bow and shatters the spear; he burns the shields with fire. He says: Be still, and know that I am God; I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth.

One thing I like about CJH that will potentially be beneficial this season, and has gotten some criticism here, is that even when games are getting out of reach, he plays to win. Think UGA x2, Bama ‘23, a few others. He could have made conservative second half calls that kept the game close, but never within reach.

Nah. He went for the dub and got blown out.

I think it instills winning culture. Really hoping that pays off this season.

It will.

16-0

Always depends, but overreactions happen too.

We started 2019 by losing to Ga St and BYU and went on to get a bowl win.

Started 2020 2-0 with SEC wins and went winless the rest of the way outside of pathetic Vandy.

The underlying culture either kicks in or...it keeps kicking in.

Both 2019 and 2020 were miserable and the last dying gasps of a terrible era. Listening to Billy Napier you hear the tone of Butch Jones and Jeremy Pruitt at the end. When a coach turns on his players or the fans you know it is over. Unfortunately for FU they are in a Jimbo Fisher spot with out the aTm money.

I’m in a quandary.
I can’t stand the longhorns.
I detest michigan.

It helps us more if michigan wins, I think.

What’s your opinion?

Well, there is always a chance that giant sinkhole will swallow up the stadium and both fan bases.

 

[rikberry31]

Sorry to see Billy catch a break. A much better QB and a Samford game to get some experience. He'll start the rest of the year imo. Top rated in 24 class; mobile with an arm. Still,

Won't make any difference, their problems go deeper than qb.

So you are telling me there's a chance.

They underestimated the percentage for Tennessee by 98.6%

16-0


Very interesting that they underestimated Tennessee by a normal human body temperature. It’s a sign! Strange but true.

 

[VolsDoc81TX]

Just get one of Oklahoma, Bama, or Georgia to get in the playoffs.

Or win them all and leave no doubt.

16-0

This really struck my interest seeing this stat, so I fact checked it and did some of my own digging. Nothing really substantial except that I think the 150 yards mark is a better indicator. In 75% of our losses under CJH, our rushing total was less than 150 yards. We have won a single game in which our rushing total didn’t exceed 150 and that was Pitt ‘22(that game felt pretty weird anyway).

Basically, if our rushing total exceeds 200, it’s very likely that we win. If our rushing total fails to hit 150, it’s pretty much a guaranteed loss.
If I had more time on my hands, I’d analyze how many often a low first half rushing yard total results in a loss vs a win.

Interesting that the 2 losses with >200 yards rushing were ole miss and purdue. In both cases, poor officiating was the real issue.

Sounds like they think it was an inside leak from this guy.

It’s bad when coaches walk out just before the season starts. Basilio said that they’re trying to spin it like Penny fired them.

The NC State dude on the bottom is talkin trashhhhh yall!

He's a grasping homer. I watched those two yesterday on their own channel, and all he does is ignore what everyone has seen. His logic is basically, "I don't believe UT is as good as they look, and I don't believe NCSU is as bad as we've seen." Later, he repeatedly claims that UT's secondary is terrible. "Can't cover grass." This is a new secondary that dominated in their only game so far this year. I realize it's UTC, but that's the point. Dude hasn't seen them struggle, yet he diagnoses them anyway. While he's seen his team struggle mightily, but that doesn't matter.

He can't be that dumb. All I can figure is he's performing for their audience, the rest of the NCSU homers.
