Practice report said Jordan was taking second reps and Gray was third. I’m not saying it means anything, I just hope since he is getting healthier that he doesn’t start taking Gray’s reps. Good kid, but Gray could be special.

Kid has the “it”, if he’s third on depth chart. I feel good about the RB’s.

Personally, I think the Vols being at 1-2 is what also helps set the stage for the game and a Vols win. If they were 3-0, I think you get a different Florida mindset. Florida will watch game film, no doubt. But I cannot help but think those pompous arses will still be thinking, much like some of this fan base does, that this team is not any good. And THAT, ladies and gentlemen, will be their downfall.

Regardless of the opponent, this team has improved each week. Week one was an anomaly...I still cannot figure out what the hell was going on. Week two, they got their $hit somewhat together, but should have never allowed BYU to be relevant, so they still had issues. Week three, they finally scratched the surface and showed everyone, themselves included, that this team can be special if everyone does their job. They beat a lower ranked opponent like they should, by the end of the first quarter (been a while since that has happened). There is, and always will be, room for improvement, but if the improvements are also there in week four...no doubt this could be a turning point for this team and for the program!

I could be totally wrong, but it's just so hard to picture this current team getting that fired up for a game. But if there was ever a game that could light that fire, it's Florida. You have to always turn it on for Florida.

It’s just unfortunate it’s that way.it use to mean something.dooley wasn’t a motivator butch wasn’t a motivator and Pruitt is at times but not consistent I don’t feel like.maybe I’m wrong,I’m not in the locker room so I don’t know for sure,but since fulmer..”Kiffin” was the only one who could get the most out of what he had especially when it came to Florida,Georgia and Alabama he knew what it mean..but it starts from the coaches down..

I think.it’s still in us for jump start push to finish the season this year on a good record if we beat Florida..we will see.but I do miss these days man.so much.anything from a goal line set Travis Henry,Stephens,Stewart and Jamal lewis over the top play to a Phillip fulmer holding the “☝🏽“ finger up after a for sure touchdown..it’s the small moments we forget about.

Got to make sure we cover Van and pressure Trask.

Do those things and we win.

Oh and give JG time.

Oh and make sure JG follows progressions.

JG is the key. He has to see the field better. My prediction for a Vols upset depends on him getting it together. If he doesn’t we’ll get our tails whipped. Again. Dang I just want a QB we can depend on.

Been trying to back off but watching the Trask highlights and seeing him throw several at 2.3 seconds or under, just aggravates me.

Maybe because he hasn't played since the 8th grade, he's not aware that's supposedly superhuman and too much to ask.
We should send JG over to tell him "that's not how it works".

Stoops has a lot of CBJ in him.

Even missed the FG at the end.

Sad man. Sad. I actually feel bad for UK fans. We've lost that exact game before too. Sucks.

Stoops is like a UT coach circa 2010-2017 who somehow never ended up coaching here. He's just got that loser mentality all over him. I think last year is their high water mark. He's probably better than any coach we've had since Fulmer but he's still got the stink of losing on him.
