Smh.

I'm a 62 year old "fat boy" and I honestly think I could have got open especially if they were playing me 15 yards or so off the ball....and then they run backwards at the snap.

I'm gonna wait to make judgment on Banks and the player's til we know more. Really not fair to any of the player's to make snap judgements on them based on internet rumours, imo. Terrible vibe to give if the rumours are completely wrong or overblown.

I agree.

We really do not know what happened.

Or Baton Rouge?

Good thing we caught LSU early in the season.

What Bowl does the 4th or 5th place SEC team go to????

Same here. Our D has sucked all year and this game was the boiling point to where it all came crashing down.

“Caught” them when they were scheduled. They changed things up after the shellacking.

I still think the biggest issue with the defense was not Blitzing, Gave Rattler all day with 4 man rushes.

That play suuuuuuucked

 

[tnvols72]

500 yards and 38 points shoulda been plenty enough to beat this team

Said this tonight with some friends

Hendon hooker deserves all the praise in the world. He didn’t deserve that. I will forever be grateful for him and all he has done for the university. Thank you 5, you are my favorite Tennessee player ever

 

[Orange.]

So we thinking that Hooker is done? Torn knee ligaments?

That's what I thought when he fell. But, like the other situation, we don't know yet.

 

[Enki_Amenra]

I think that was the tipping point.

 

[Volfan39]

And also hadden can walk back to Knoxville, with his trash talking ass

We made a choice to keep everything in front. I don't know why. I didn't like it. But that's what we did. The least aggressive game plan I've seen from us all year and we appeared to make no adjustments... At all. Baffling.

 

[Christian Lowe]

I’d rather have lost to GA ST again than the way we lost that one. It’s a wonder I’m not in jail right now. I’ve never wanted to beat someone’s ass more times than I did tonight, but I just kept my mouth shut and fists clenched. Gotta eat this one.

 

[KB5252]

Was gifted a bottle of Buffalo Trace and some southern tn moonshine tonight by my stepson in celebration of his twins born a couple of weeks ago . Had a couple of short glasses........... Still hurts. Going to pop a Merlot to finish off the pain this evening........ Maybe two.


The season has been great, we overachieved where I thought we'd be. But damn when you fall short of where you could have been....... and lost to a mediocre team it just sucks.

We did blitz a time or two and still didn’t get there.

Maybe Tim Banks didn't like his NIL deal either.

Yeah. Put some salt and pepper on it, choke it down.

 

[UpstateVol613]

I hope we get Satterfield an extension.

Well he should love what it'll be now...

 

[MoCo_Vol]

Just don’t let this beating define this season. Respond and smoke Candy and then put a beating on whoever you get in the bowl game.

Mostly my heart hurts for Hendon Hooker. Hopefully it’s not a torn ligament and he can work on rehab & recovery so he’s 100% for the combine.

 

[thistime]

Our Hopes and Dreams.......yet once again....

 

[jakez4ut]

We did blitz a time or two and still didn’t get there.

Yeah. But as a game plan it certainly didn't look or feel like the defense we've seen all year especially up front.

The secondary has had it's issues no doubt... But this performance was next level bad.

Nothing I saw tonight made sense.
