Recruiting Forum Football Talk XXVI

Uhhhh. You serious Clark? Crazy enough I bet they even look alike

Yeah, because since that's his dad it means that he automatically plays just like him. Thought it might be of interest that Doug Matthews specified that he played a lot like him during the closed scrimmage.

I can understand as a fan hoping for an undefeated season, but setting that as a realistic expectation is just silly to me. Since the SEC started in 1933, we have had a grand total of 2 undefeated seasons (1938 and 1998). All of the breaks would have to go our way to get to 15-0, and that is extremely difficult. To me, it's just unrealistic to expect a perfect season.

Terrible commentators

The difference between a 10-2, 11-1, and 12-0 is often lucky breaks. The football is a funny shaped object. All you have to do is look at the '98 season. The interference call in the Syracuse game and the infamous Clint Sturner fumble. It always takes a degree of luck to go undefeated. We're due for some of those lucky bounces.

The talent level on this team is greater than anything Tennessee has ever seen.

15-0 is all but a formality.

Cal roster I looked at says #17.

 

[KokoBVol]

Cal roster I looked at says #17.

Yeah, you're right. The one I saw said # 7, but that's Davis Webb's number.

 

[StoVol]

Yeah, you're right. The one I saw said # 7, but that's Davis Webb's number.

I take back the thank you from earlier

 

[Darth_Shiveman]

Cal roster I looked at says #17.

Looks like they made him change his number when Davis Webb came to town. Pretty funny considering Vic not getting the number he wanted was one of the things he was upset about at UT.

Haha.

 

[KokoBVol]

How 'bout them Rainbow Warriors.

I thought he was #17? QB is #7

Edit: nvm see it was already mentioned

Solid defense from both squads.

ok.

The Oakland Hillsboro game on ESPNU has more fanfare and pageantry than this Cal Hawaii game. What an awful atmosphere.

 

[Ace]

Wharton just took a hard hit on punt return.

 

[you]

Our Vic just caught a pass... It's like we loaned him to Cal... Is that a full sleeve tattoo I see on his right arm?

 

[unioncityvol]

He was 7 last year, changed to 17 this season.

 

[Ace]

Wharton struggling as a punt returner. Would not have seen the field for Vols this year as a returner.

 

[engineerVOL]

Guys.

I love football.

I'm so happy watching games right now.
