The Official #1 Tennessee @ #3 Georgia Game Thread, 3:30 PM ET, CBS

[Firebirdparts]

Refs trying to keep us in it.

 

[TNJOKER]

Gary Danielson always trying to force a review

It's been like that for the past 10 years. Much worse when vern was there.

 

[FLVOL_79]

Boys just gotta get their composure and keep playing hard.

 

[Stoerner Fumbles]

You do understand that Georgia is denying the deep ball and we are having to take what they are giving us? That’s the reason for all the short passes. That and they are getting a good interior pass rush and forcing Hooker to throw quick.

This. Them playing tight and getting PI calls is about to open up a long shot.

 

[LieutenantNeyland]

Kirby knows how to do defense…

You could defense with the recruiting classes they have had.

 

[UTFanHades]

What would you do?

Clearly UGA is forcing the short pass and playing back. Maybe we’ve adjusted somewhat on this drive as our passes are closer to the first down line. Inside runs and passes to the flat aren’t the answer as that is what Kirby is scheming to get.

 

[TennesseeTarheel]

Substitution play.

 

[ButchPlz]

Little momentum on offense... got to keep it up and give the defense rest.

 

[saxvol]

dbs holding every play

Georgia

 

[CAVPUT]

Screw Gary! Looks like the UT secondary is earning their 127 ranking today.

Problem is that we cannot pressure Bennett without bringing extra bodies and that leaves us vulnerable. Even with blitzing, UGA is doing a great job in protecting. We just aren't getting to him.

 

[TheFlash1971]

Weathering the storm they are going to hold our receivers this whole game

 

[C-south]

This is reminiscent of the Pitt game.

 

[CR-vol]

There's a lot of ball game left. Not looking good but let's see what this team has to say about the rest of the game.

 

[DeepSpringsVol]

Their defense is using their raw talent to bully us . It's how games like this normally play out.

Everything possible that could give them an edge this week went bad.

People mocked their schedule.
Playoff committee places us above them.
Ainge stokes the fire saying we won't have any problem in Sanford.
Georgias roster has been better they just needed a nudge and they have gotten it.

 

[TN1111]

I see the standard Alabama holding taught to Kirby by Saban is being deployed. At least they're finally getting called for it.

 

[vol94]

There is a 25-50% chance this is our first of 2 meetings. The second one will be neutral site, don’t panic.

If we comeback, great. If we don’t, learn some lessons.

Better make a run though and keep it close. Otherwise won’t see them again until 2023 @ Neyland

 

[Coug]

So GA's defense isn't that great they just hold and pass interfere all the time.

 

[mpfvol]

GA is tackling well also like they want it more

 

[tntornadox]

Typical Tennessee fan. Off the bandwagon at the first sign of trouble. Call your mommy for help.

I've been a Tennessee fan my entire life and have been a member here 10 years longer than you. We have a history of making even horrible QBs look good. Bennett had the best quarter this season against our D just now.

 

[Illinoisvolfan2]

Fields couldn't get it to a deep threat receiver anyways lol

And they have Velus Jones but he just recently has been healthy enough to play much

 

[DickeyD]

Damn!

 

[ButchPlz]

Refs trying to keep us in it.

I mean, they were both obvious flags.

 

[IluvdoubleD's]

Coach hype is very good, but if you beat him in the first you are done. game over.

 

[Shakinthefat]

 

[Delmar]

Goals are to win championships anything less is a waste I agree.

I guess everybody but one team every year has a wasted year then. Geez where do you people come from?
