In a very winnable game…….

Does anyone think Small or Evans converts that 4th and 1? That’s a tough ask for a true freshman, especially one that size.

Small…. No

First things first, NCAA HAS to get its head out of its ass and give a decision on Young

 

[volfan4lyfe]

Who was the gamer during JG’s years?

Honestly, under this coaching staff I think Shrout would be a “gamer.” When he was actually given time on the field I thought he was better than HB or JG. Call me crazy.

 

[orangesoda]

Maybe but we don’t appear to have Tom Brady walking through that door so we have to work with what we got.

What the hell does Brady have to do with the conversation?

 

[NMVol]

It's the pitts.

If Hooker keeps it he walks into end zone. Entire defense collapsed on the back.

Easy to second guess from my couch though

I thought the same thing, but it almost looked like a give all the way.

I thought the game plan and play calling was pretty good all day, except for that play.

 

[Nash_Vol97]

Dadgum pass interference that sailed into the first row that kept the drive alive and led to one of their tds was maybe worse than the first down call .. amazing 10 yards outta the back of the end zone

Yeah that ball wasn’t even close to catchable.

 

[jave36]

It does seem odd but I don’t see how you would choose an enforcement spot for both penalties otherwise. Where do you officiate?

Arkansas, northwest region. You?

You're right, you couldn't do spot of foul because there were two different ones. Just seems like the return would be negated, possession goes to Tennessee at the original line of scrimmage. But it's a muddy one for sure.

Weren’t there reports it was a 2 game suspension because he played 2 games at the prep school?

 

[reVOLution33]

I have no problem with the way Hooker came in and played. People with think it’s a silly comparison but he looked a lot like young Dobbs around 2015 ish

Lol comparing a 5th year senior to a (young Dobbs)

 

[SpringBokVol]

What network is that on?

CBS sports

 

[InVOLuntary]

On a positive note I got to meet up with @OGbabyaviVol, @Sugaray13 and his son, @utvols88 and a couple of his friends at Billy Ratliff's Tap 40 grill. Guess who the manager was that I talked to for several minutes? None other than the Lady Vols Alexis Hornbuckle. Billy Ratliff himself came over and talked both the current Vols and the Vols of old. Talk about intense. I was ready to suit up. If you are in the Knoxville area, you need to support this VFL. For you beer drinkers, they don't call it Tap 40 for nothing.

 

[Orange Studs]

Like I said he was 8-12 for over 100 yds with 1 TD if Hyatt makes the catch…. His inconsistency means you allow Hooker to prove he can be the guy but a QB guru shouldn’t give up on a talent like Milton.

Why does it seem that its always "if" when you talk about your boy Milton? How about "if" he didn't fumble, "if" he actually he a wide open Tillman?

[Smokey123]

It’s true. Sorry you don’t follow football outside of Tennessee

 

[nicksjuzunk]

Pitt is just as good as everyone left on our schedule outside of GA & Bama. Florida is better but not by that much.

I thought they were really good outside of their run game.

 

[UTProf]

I was very confused on how that was ruled a fumble. They were both on the ground and then the Pitt player pulled the ball away. We didn't play well enough to win but there were some bad calls by the refs that probably led to some frustration plays.

They overruled the call on the field without a review. I don't think you're supposed to do that.

 

[Big Gucci Sosa]

yall give pitt wayyyyyyyyyy to much credit. theyre not good.

 

[vol4eva]

I also hate how we lost when we should have won. I think that is what I am so pissed about.

At least you feel something. I feel nothing and that’s what truly pisses me off.

 

[GoBigOrange86]

They’re fine. They’ll win 7 or 8. Nothing special about them. Missouri and Kentucky would both beat Pitt, I think.

 

[MrWiz]

Heupel has a 6-year contract that can automatically extend to 7 years depending on the sanctions. If we fire him before December 15, 2023, he gets his entire contract. It drops to 75% after that, and eventually to 50%. He is here for the long term.

This probably needs to be posted frequently. Heupel is going to get one of the longest leashes in major cfb history.

 

[nicksjuzunk]

Can't believe I'm saying this, but deep down, some of you know JG would have made/connected/hit at least two of the long ball TD's Milton botched..... Too early?????

 

[orangesoda]

Then we really suck!!!

HB was best of all three
