Here's a thought....
Butch is in year 4 at Tennessee. He has never been at a stop for 4 years before Tennessee. Perhaps we are seeing the peak of his coaching mantra (based on the never give up attitude) and how it affects a team of recruits that are 95% recruited and coached exclusively by him.
If so, he should be the guy as long as he wants. He's not a perfect coach, but the ability to motivate a team like that is extremely, extremely rare.
Yeah..me too. I'm proud of them. But losing this game hurts the seasons outlook bad, with the Gators and the SEC conspiring to screw us. The competitive integrity of the game is ancient history. You only win if they let you win.For all of the bad stuff today, you have to be proud of Team 120. I honestly thought the game was over at 28-7. I thought too much had mounted up with injuries, deficit, mental fatigue, etc. Those boys went out there and found a way to make plays to get back in the game. Unbelievable effort in a loss!! Hope we can rally the troops and take it to Bama next week, then get some much needed rest.

I thought it would be hard to beat Bama at the end of this stretch with no bye week. This team has been so fun and so weird to watch but just love the heart.
Turnovers are a part of the game and we lost because of those and only because of those.
The injuries have been killer. But, as hard as it will be to win next week, I will not doubt this team. We will go to Atlanta regardless if we beat Bama next week or not. Would've been nice to win and finally we have shown what this offense can do. D Line is keeping us alive and will continue to do so. I think we can beat Bama but it won't be easy and no one will expect it. I don't think I expect it but nothing these guys do will surprise me.
