Anyone know how to watch the Orange&White game without sec network plus?

The SEC Network is gonna run a replay of the game Monday night at midnight. I'm gonna record it and watch it after the fact.

Thanks for that info I didn;t know this.

Directv doesn't offer high speed internet where I'm moving too. I'm only interested in them for the NFL Sunday Ticket.

Does anyone know if you can get Directv but also go through your local cable company for high speed internet? Would they have to install a separate line?

I have everything through Directv. I have 1000 MBPS through their fiber optics. When you bundle them, it's cheaper but you can have Directv and an outside internet provider. You'll just pay more for the services if their not bundled.

The best part of this is that we beat Florida in the finals and they were ranked #1. We were ranked #5

Our golf team finished tied for 3rd in stroke play at the SEC Championship today and qualified for match play tomorrow morning. Our first match is against Candy.

With a few breaks, we could win the SEC tournament this weekend. Coach Webb has a pretty strong team this year.

Listen to "Money for nothing" by Dire Straits and tell me if you think that song will ever be played over the air again in today's environment . Damn good song though in the 80"s

They already leave out an entire verse because today’s society is so fragile that they cannot handle one word.

 

[mikemist]

And how did the worst defense ever get eight consecutive three and outs on an offense they think will score points?

Had the same thought, if the defense is that bad the offense must be worse

 

[BigOrangeTrain]

Yeah that’s kind of what everyone covering the team has been saying, just not quite so bluntly.

Lock Heupel in for 6 years guaranteed and reassess this thing in 2027.

We need some stability...

I can get with this. But many fans cannot. Basically regardless of the situation, no head coach gets more than 3 years at TN. If you aren’t wings 10+ in year 3 then you suck, fire the coach and entire staff and reboot.

 

[mikemist]

I don't usually disagree with you, but man, what a horrendous take.

Do you travel much? You should listen to other schools' play by play guys. Even the local FCS schools have better guys just from a technical standpoint. Kesling paints the muddiest pictures, rarely gets the fundamentals right (down and distance between every play, formations before plays, which yard line they're on, etc...), and he's just flat out confusing a lot of the time. "Deep pass complete for a 3 yard gain." Huh?

IMO, he's objectively bad at his job. I usually have no clue what's going on when I'm forced to listen to him. I don't even care about how unexciting he is compared to some of the greats, I just want to know what's happening.

He can barely form sentences, you could pull a fan from the stands and it'd be about the same quality, maybe better

Yeah I agree and it’s sad because I’m convinced you can’t win big early at Tennessee the way you can at Florida, Georgia and Alabama. You have to build it slow and steady.

For crying out loud it’s April and a practice.

That's what I'm saying, I don't think the defense is as bad as being rumored

Two rednecks sittin around, drinking beer. One says "My instincts tell me it's gonna rain". The other says, "My end stinks, but it don't tell me anything."...........

Tomorrow’s is long, but it’s my second favorite joke .

Best joke ever: A dyslexic man walks into a bra!

You are correct. But there are some that think anyone can and should be able to win big here regardless of what has transpired. There is not one SEC team that has endured what we have in the past 10 years.

Some want to make fun of Stoops at UK but he is a solid coach that has turned UK into a solid team. It took him 5 years to get a 10 win season. We haven’t won 10 games since what, 2007? We need some coaching stability.

I misconstrued your post. My bad.

Agreed unless we’re winning 3 games or something. You can see if progress is being made and the roster being built or if it’s falling apart

 

[drvenner]

People have never liked hearing the truth

Thank, Coach Will

We fired our coach after winning 3 games last season...... that solid program won an amazing 4 regular season games last season.

I simply disagree. He's not great. He's serviceable. I think people nitpick every little thing with him. I do listen to more basketball than football.

They’re agreement expired and they’re moving the Sunday Ticket to the internet. Maybe Amazon or Yahoo, I don’t remember....

These days, anything NFL is a waste of money. I recommend you get a new hobby

 

[VolByLaw]

Celtics fans really dislike Grant Williams.

KNOXVILLE HERE WE COME

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

Metro LA on the whole is the most disgusting place I have ever been in my life...but there are still a few beautiful and interesting places. I feel really sorry for the regular people here...
