Second Half

This is what people do everywhere. Expectation is a prison for some.

Kentucky matched up pretty well with us last year. What was the final 45-42? They have the ability to shoot it out with us, don’t be mistaken, especially the weakness of our pass defense. But our d proves they can make crucial plays in crunch situations and Banks doesn’t care how many yards we give up as long as we win.

Won’t be close. Their O-line is a weakness. Their QB is turnover prone. They don’t have the ability to slow our tempo, and they cannot score with us. We are a terrible matchup for Kentucky and Stoops knows it.

Backups on defense really looked out of place and got outplayed by UTM. Hopefully they get better with these reps and CJH needs to keep recruiting Defensive players to get much more depth. I'll take the WIN but Kentucky is going to be a hard fought game. Can't be looking ahead to the Dawgs.

So far we have a 4* CB and a 4* S signed in the '23 class. I trust The Hype to keep the talent coming. I gotta wear shades!

Kentucky lost a lot of why they matched up with us well last year along with our players developing a lot more than theirs.

Their offensive line is atrocious. Levis will be on his butt early and often.

(dang, I knew that Seven Habits class would pay off someday)

This.

Turnage will be back. Hadden will probably be back. Lord willing the DA office stops trying to make a weak felony charge happen and Tank will be back. We played walk ons today and UTM Is one of the top FCS schools in the country. Veteran starters for top 25 FCS schools are gonna be better than walk ons.

Charles should be back as well

Backups on defense really looked out of place...

That's why games like today are important to programs.

 

[D-Vols]

There is very little film for the backups to be evaluated against, this game will give much needed film to review and use to correct problems.

Kentucky played last years team, THEY AINT PLAYED THIS YEARS!

VOLS BY 21

Kentucky is and was always going to be a tough game. They are a really good, well-coached team. Why it's so hard for some fans to admit that, I'll never understand. Let's don't be like their basketball fans that can't admit TN has a good basketball program.

Hahahahahahahaha
Lol

 

[Yanks24]

Just freaking ridiculous

 

[MOOOOONEY]

Did anyone else notice a defensive lineman that played with no effort and looked as though he didn’t want to be in the game?

I know the game is out of hand and it’s mop up duty, but this the time you earn reps in the games that are competitive.

Out of respect I’m not calling out his name.

 

[SAPPER 5]

We should just forfeit

@Freak, can I give him a blue like?

To be honest whats more concerning to me for the future is that Milton didnt look sharp, sure he threw a couple good deep balls but it was a drastic drop in production with him out there, most obvious to me was the decision making, Hendon just has the "it" factor, I just dont see that in Milton yet and Im afraid we never will, it was just painfully obvious that even tho we have a tremendous offensive system its really dependant on the man running it.

Yes-even Bama looks awful without Bryce. Our system especially requires a certain qb.

I will step in and say I really like the development I’ve seen in Milton. Not many qb’s can come into the last play of the half vs Bama and have the pocket presence he did while making a great throw. He’s clearly developed. If he’s not the starting qb next year, I’m thrilled he’s a part of this team. Either he’ll step up as starter and Taven or Nico will learn from him or one of them will play and be fortunate in having a more senior teammate to mentor and develop them as both the starting qb and the leader of the offense. Heup and crew are gonna make hay with next year’s qb room. That position group is probably least concern for me going into 2023.

I hope you are correct, it is a concern for me tho, in the few times we've saw Milton this year he did look improved but it was glimpses, today we saw him running the offense and it wasn't fluid, idk, we'll see, I hope Nico is the real deal tho, I think we'll need him.
