Translation: lots of "cramping".

Fun fact: They had a lot of cramping when we beat them in 2016, too.

As a sign of confidence, you should place a $52 bet on the Vols to cover. 52 being the Vols points per game so far.

If I had a million dollars, .
My max bet is $25 most of the time.

Would be cool for VFL Films to coordinate an updated version of this with Josiah Jordan-James.

And we don't need to let that bother us.
Execute and nothing else matters.

If the 1Q total ends up under 14 or the spread is under 7, then I’m probably going to bet. Otherwise, I’ll find some other ones to bet on.

1Q total is set at 13.5 right now.

Anyone else get the feeling we’re setting ourselves up for an epic letdown? When was the last time Tennessee football actually met expectations on the big stage? I refuse to get sucked in this time.

Keep us updated.

That looks very good.

 

[Volsdeep4]

I can't find the video right now, but I am pretty sure he was getting some pressure. Football truly requires everyone to do their job.

People complained about Hooker under-throwing deep balls in the bowl game last year. I was at the game, and Hooker had guys on him or at his feet most of those average throws. When you can't properly plant, the throws will be off. It's not all on the QB.

That is true. Something I didn’t take into account. I guess I just seen him do it so much I assumed. Thank you for the good post.

I hope we win 69-0

That would be.. nice

 

[Enki_Amenra]

If we get to Richardson like we did against Pitt, that dude will fold up like a lawn chair.

 

[SugarCC]

This is my go to every year the night before the game

Seeing Will Overstreet there...any word on how he's doing? He was in pretty bad shape some months back, wasn't he?

 

[TheTimeIsNow]

I have BVS bad. I just feel we will blow this one chance to beat the total crap out of Florida.

 

[SpringBokVol]

Eh, 16 was a huge moment for sure, but Imo the 2014 loss against the Treon Harris led Florida team was the moment early in Butchs tenure. TN was a favorite, checker Neyland, the Gators were awful.

That game sucked!!!

I have BVS bad. I just feel we will blow this one chance to beat the total crap out of Florida.

If we blow it again there’s got to be some reckoning with how this one is approached. Only thing that may fix it is finally getting them off the yearly rotation in a few years.

 

[orange parmejohn]

Good thing he has a obvious leg injury

Richardson has a leg injury??

 

[mr.checkerboards]

That game sucked!!!

Exactly. Butch should've beaten that FL team by multiple scores but instead he found a way to lose.

 

[GoBigOrange86]

That game sucked!!!

I remember standing there in total disbelief feeling almost weak in the knees as it sank in we were going to lose AGAIN. We’d gone on the road and lost to UGA by 3 point and put up over 30 in the effort and then folded like a cheap suit against the Gators. Made all the worse by Muschamp running his mouth afterward in the postgame interview. Truly devastating among many other devastating losses.

 

[orange parmejohn]

If USF can contain him, there’s no reason the Vols can’t. USF is not a good football team.

I can’t argue your logic but history tells me to keep 2 cups handy. 1 for my Guinness and the other for obvious reasons.

 

[VolNash17]

Biggest question is not who’s injured for either team. Or who’s starting where or if Florida will cramp like crazy. It’s who is officiating the game? What specific crew and what history do they have in previous games with both schools and what are their ties.

[Devo182]

From an image perspective, this game is pretty huge, beyond all the usual stuff:


If UT wins:

Florida will become 2-10 in their last 12 SEC games. 6 straight losses.



If UF wins:

They will still be 4-9 in their last 13 SEC games...BUT 3 of those 4 wins would be against us


And you know these stats will be circulated either way. Please sweet baby jesus don't let us end up in the former stat!

Need this win...

 

[SugarCC]

Hooker gotta come out sharp and confident. Period. No high throws/overthrows... he should only be working on that and slants this week.
REALLY hoping Sampson is a GO for this weekend. Sounds like if he can go, we will only be missing Tillman, which will really suck...

You sure we shouldn't start Milton this week?

 

[TitanicVolz]

Since he took over the starting job…He's accounted for 42 TDs, completed 68% of his passes and thrown just 2 picks. Find something else to complain about IMO.

Yea man it's sad honestly anyone who can't sit back and enjoy the magic him and heupel have created for this fanbase is a douche nozzle.Im sure the same ones were batching about JG also so it really makes u wonder what they want in a qb??Outside of A.I ur not gonna get much better on a consistent basis.Just imagine if Milton was our only qb last year.I just think some do Hooker and the University a disservice when they spew that bs!
