For those who were at the game, was the flyover of F-35’s the new F-35C chrome variant or just the standard F-35A, B or C?

I shot this video before the game as they were circling my neighborhood. Can't really tell what they are though. They have the same outline as the photo, but I guess all f35's do.

For our old Kentucky rivals:

"Oh, the sun shines bright in Our Neyland Stadium;
'Tis autumn, Big Orange did play.
The lights flashed bright, and the fireworks kept going boom
While the Vols scored 44 all day.

Weep no more, Big Blue.
Oh, weep no more today!
We will sing Rocky Top
For the Old Kentucky Cats,
For the Old Kentucky Cats sad today."

Remember when one of our Florida posters said don't take this Ky team lightly this is not the Kentucky team of old??

Speaking of the Florida posters, where have they been? They somehow don't show up when we don't suck!!

@Jaws has visited and congratulated Vols fans. Seems under duress.

Those things move as fast as the Tennessee offense.

Flying to Atlanta then San Antonio this morning.

Lots of Orange on this flight

Should make for a pleasant flight.

Hendon Hooker made an amazing play in the first quarter last night that only resulted in a yard or two but prevented a likely pick six. He was about to throw the ball to a wide receiver that was behind or just at the line of scrimmage and had another receiver slightly in front of him ready to block. The defender recognized the play and jumped the route to be in the flight path of the ball. Hendon recognized it and pump faked instead of throwing the pass, tucked the ball and ran for two yards.

His ability to quickly process, see the defense and make the decision not to throw the ball within a split second of turning his head toward the intended receiver and starting his throwing motion was phenomenal. That is a perfect example of why he is a better quarterback than Levis and should be drafted higher despite Levis having a stronger arm and weighing more (being tough). Your quarterback being smart is more important than being able to throw a football over a mountain. I also prefer my QB to be quick/fast, elusive and know when to slide or go out of bounds so he doesn't get hurt when he decides to run.

All of the reasons given for Levis being a higher draft pick just highlight why he should not be a high draft pick. Strong arm....it. causes Levis to make stupid, risky throws that get intercepted because he is too cocky. Also impacts his accuracy and ability to throw a catchable ball. Hendon's arm is strong enough to make any throw but he he has much better accuracy and touch and doesn't try to force risky throws. He throws a more accurate deep ball and a more catchable ball for his WRs. He has much better vision and ability to read defenders. He is a more effective runner who doesn't take as many hard shots and he is slippery in the pocket while continuing to look downfield for a big play and gets positive yards if a throw isn't there.

Any GM that takes Levis over Hooker in the draft is a fool that deserves to tank their franchise for years. Hendon is a guy you build a team/future around and Levis is a guy you take in the mid rounds as a "maybe he can be turned into something" or if you need a good backup. Bryce Young is the only QB in the upcoming draft that should be rated higher than Hooker.

People joke around but you have kept the faith all year. I have begun to believe. 15-0!!!!!!

XV-Nulla

 

[SweetasSoda]

The Schiano defenders have got to be dying right now.

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

Lane has his own vendetta against Jimbo because lane knows ole miss doesn’t have the funds or donors backing them like A&M does with NIL deals…so with lanes comments tonight just shows he also thinks Jimbo bought players and His views align with saban on the matter.

Lame is a massive jealous hypocrite....Zack Evans and Dart were bought and paid for.

Hooker has greatly improved his processing of the defense. It goes to show you that with good coaching and hard work, even older players can improve. In his first couple of games last year, I was nervous with him dropping back. It was clear that he would look at his primary read and then just tuck it and run if it was defended.

Now, he reads the defense and reacts so quickly. I guess it’s just reps and another year in the offense. Kudos to him- it is so fun to watch!

 

[gainesvol82]

Not sure what instigated it. Seems pretty classless to beat him down, but if he went there on his own and was running his mouth, who knows?

Exhibit A of why their stadium design of having both teams enter and exit the same tunnel is epicly stupid.

 

[VolNash17]

I think the B - offensive plan was by design after the late 3rd. Run run run and not much variance in the run plays. Slow tempo. Just to chip away at the clock, not show anything more on film and most importantly get out of there without any injuries.
I was really impressed with how well the defense played after the first few drives getting settled in as well as the special teams units. We’ll need those 2 units at their best this Saturday in Athens

McGill, you crossed my mind several times as I was enjoying that amazing game and thinking about what was going thru your mind..now you can rub the UK fans’ noses in it..I would wear orange everyday..lol

Easy guy!…I’m sure 24’ will be nice!…but I want all the 5* stars now

I don't want them all, I just want the right ones.

 

[butchna]

The 2000 Sooners. . .

Noticed early on. The similarities are eery…even without Heupel.

How much credit should we give to the letters as being the basis of our magic?

 

[MarcoVol]

Rodriguez isnt really impressive. He’s not quick, fast, elusive, & has average vision. He is big and powerful. He will get drafted in the backend of the draft, but will have a very short nfl career.

Rodriguez has really good vision, is quicker than he looks, and is a load to bring down.

Vols are just better.

 

[Rishvol]

This is why we did the reVOLution those many years ago

 

[SouthKnoxVOL]

We are gonna beat UGA. I just feel it. This team is still getting disrespected with being an 11 point underdog in Athens. A lot of people still don't respect this team. Every game we win...is still not enough.

 

[LA Vol]

What's he mean when he says game ops? Like the staff, concessions, light show, fan interaction type stuff?

Think he means the overall fan/visitor experience. UT has emphasized building an unparalleled in-venue and gameday experience, and really, they've done a fabulous job. UT fans have done an exceptional job, too. They've made Neyland fun for fans and very tough for opponents.

 

[Orangeburst]

I shot this video before the game as they were circling my neighborhood. Can't really tell what they are though.thet they have the same outline as the photo, but I guess all f35's do.

They look to be A's, or maybe B's. C's have larger wings.

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

Honestly it’s not even that per se if you watch his routes he runs what I would like to call “lag” routes.

He slows down his initial route and makes DBs think they are running with him and then he puts on the burners for the separation and then is wide open.

That is exactly what I was talking about....he has mastered doing that. They think they are running with him, and then they look around and he is just gone...you can almost see their thoughts.."he was just right there".

 

[scienceteaching_vol]

Has anyone been talking about how if we beat Georgia we would have beaten the last three national champions in the same season? There's no way that's ever been done before.
