Look, I'm not some kind of shill for Basilio, but I know lots of people give you crap about being a fan of his. That call is the perfect example (along with all his post game shows for all the sports) of why I think he's the best media person in Knoxville covering the Vols. He's a fan. That call from Big Josh, and the reaction from Dale Jones. Man, that's just beautiful stuff.

@Jack Burton hey, you have a fan!
 
Just want to say we cannot take anything for granted. This team needs to stay focused and keep the foot on the gas. KY will be a challenge until it’s not. Same goes for UGA. Same goes for USCe.

No reason to talk about SECCG or playoffs until the job is done. JMO. GBFO.
Just enjoying having the media talk about which recruits will hear. Still celebrating the win over AL!
 
Is Ky a bad matchup for us? Good receivers, a garbage QB, but that same QB threw for nearly 400 yards last year, and a good defense. Nobody has scored much on them this year
I dont think that will matter all that much because their OL is trash this year. We will get to Levis and they won't be able to chew clock behind a bad OL and our run stopping DL. I actually think its a good match up for us tbh.
 

I always enjoy the 5th quarter fan reaction. That guy and his crew have been known to pull all nighters. He's not a member of the normal sports media around Knoxville, doesn't kiss ass for access. I love his show, and I have no idea why all vol fans don't listen after the games.

Absolutely not...KY's OL is TURRRIBLE lol. Our front 7 is a million times better than it was last year as well and honestly our secondary didn't play terribly against Bama. Bryce made plays. We'll need to get some guys back and they will score but I honestly don't think this game will be all that close. We'll shut Rodriguez down to an extent and make them one dimensional. Though still good, Rodriguez isn't as shifty and fast as Gibbs. Gibbs is probably the best RB in the country. Levis is not Bryce Young. They MIGHT score 21 on us but we can put up 40+ on them.

We might not put up 50 on them but their pass pro is garbage. Worst in the SEC, per teamrankings. They're giving up almost 4 sacks a game.

Our ability to stop the run is the bigger difference I think. I don't think Levis can beat you with his arm, and I see us slowing C Rod down.
 
You kind of have to respect Saban there. He literally admitted without excuse that he was outcoached and didn't have his players ready for what they would see. And then he turned it at the end per what's good for the fans. You have to kind of tip the hat to that.
Unless he was still blaming his DC.

You know.... @peaygolf has me yearning for someone (probably within UT) to create and/or release classic games film.

I'd love to watch games from the 70s/80s/90s that predated my fandom for the team. Hell I'd love to rewatch games from the 2000s as well.

I'd even be willing to edit them down like Freak does and hand right back to the person to upload them. But I just don't have access and I'm sure the university has to have some sort of film for these games, right?
Yes. We should have a thread that links full-videos of the games where a record was set and still remains unbroken today.

We lived in the backfield harassing BY. BY is just a magician. Levis is no magician.
