That LSU game will be a down to the wire rock fight

Going into Death Valley top-10 will be hype. The irony will be LSU (if they beat Auburn, which they should) may actually be close to a pick 'em despite maybe not even being ranked, the flip flop of the Pitt situation. Imo they should be ranked though. They're not bad at all.

Imo LSU got unduly punished for losing to FSU, who now looks pretty solid. And the voters haven't caught up.

Idk if FPI has updated, but it currently has LSU a 60/40 favorite. About a 3 point game. It's almost like the voters don't trust them, but the analytics and Vegas do. Really hope the voters' skepticism is right, they fall flat vs Auburn, get banged up, and lay an egg vs us.

Getting a bye week before road game at LSU is huge. They aren’t great but they are talented still and have a good home crowd. This bye week will allow for players to get healthy and Heupel to try and patch together a good gameplan for LSU. LSU O Line is weaker and they aren’t deep as they usually are. I think the tempo can wear them down and hopefully the front 7 can break through their O Line to cover up the secondary’s lackluster showing this year

Personally, I think we smoke LSU.

Please let it be so!

We scored to end the first half and again to start the second half. When is the last time we did that in a meaningful game? It’s such a massive momentum/point swing and is a huge reason we won.

Remember that field goal we stole before half against, I think, UK? Ended up being the difference in the game. Same as that 99yd TD drive before half. Heupel is gonna win us a lot of games if he stays consistent in areas like this.

Remember the coaches we've had who would run out the last minute or 2 of the half, just to get off the field? Cowards. So glad we have Heupel and this mind-set.

 

[VolNash17]

And for Kentucky… I hope they keep winning stay in the top 10 and that way Heupel gets another breakthrough with a top 10 win first since 2006

We beat LSU and come out of the Bama game 6-0. . . where are we ranked then?

 

[nicksjuzunk]

I appreciate Flowers and everything but early in the game they called him “One of the great safeties in all of college football”

 

[Devo182]

Man how good was Hooker last night, the dude played a brilliant game

He hasn't ran that well and been so on point since last year. If he has things figured out, look out.

My ONLY criticism, if I try really hard, was not hitting guys on the run a couple times. And not throwing second level/keeping it on his last play of the night. That's really it. And that's asking for perfection.

I'll say what Ron Slay said. . . I don't give a d*mn! GO VOLS!

Let’s just take one game at a time. Next step… Beat LSU!

The prayer warriors are letting me down!

You using that ironically is way more sad than it is funny

Have they announced that already? I don't see it on schedule.

They misspelled "woefully bad"

 

[volinbama256]

That might actually be what has me more excited. You take away the self inflicted mistakes/errors we made and there's another 2 or 3 TDs hung on the Gators.

Fant fumble we were driving to score and the Hooker fumble we were moving the ball as well.

Same could be certainly said about the PITT game... Everyone thinking I'm all nega.... I'm just pointing out that while we are winning, we are still making huge mistakes throughout the game... it is going to eventually catch up with us... I hope we take this week to really break down tape and see where we can improve and tighten up.

We are about to hit LSU, AL, GA, and KY.... making all these sloppy mistakes will be magnified in games like these and may come back to haunt us.

Nothing wrong with dreaming.
We win the next 2, we're top3.

 

[BearCat204]

I dont see anyway this isnt a night game for them.

 

[Fun coupon VOL]

In what world is Trevon flowers a greatest safety in college football?

he and McCullough need to see some pine.

 

[volinbama256]

hot take. Defense is better than what volnation thinks it is

LMFAO--- the D line yes, the rest, NO.

 

[Johnny Majors' Ghost]

Have they announced that already? I don't see it on schedule.

Personally I wouldn't mind if it was at noon on the SEC Network.

 

[Enki_Amenra]

I dont see anyway this isnt a night game for them.

Would love to go dark mode at Death Valley, at night. . .
Probably an easier game @ noon, but the fan experience of an LSU night game is incredible.

 

[Weezer]

Very possible KY loses to OM next week and we move up a spot without even having to play a game.

Also, I wouldn't sleep on Arkansas against Bama next week. I expect the pigs to come out fired up after losing to TAMU.

 

[nicksjuzunk]

While I agree, that did seemed to be the consensus gameplan among everyone.

"Shut down the run game and make Richardson beat you with his arm"

He couldn't do it. Not even close. Took a miracle to even be with 3 scores with 6 mins left

Just like Pitt, everything went wrong, but our gameplan worked itself out.

It’s kind of a hard concept to embrace, but the bend but don’t break has not broken in spite of wicked bend

That LSU game will be a down to the wire rock fight

It will be more like Pitt than Florida.
Florida can’t get to the qb but also protects extremely well. LSU can’t protect the qb but can definitely disrupt HH. Both TN and LSU are fully capable of putting up 40 and causing enough problems to limit the other team to < 40. We’ll need Byron Young, Omari, and Tyler Baron to a great day. I expect it to be another game where the defense will be the story if we win.
