The Official #14 Tennessee vs. #24 North Carolina State Game Thread, 7:30 PM ET, ABC

[VOLINVONORE]

NC State might be better than Clemson

I would rather play Clemson, but we beat either /both.

 

[VOL RN]

I’ve settled down, but I do have some concerns about the OL.

Competition comes adjustments.

 

[Clad in Big Orange]

Bama 14-13 on USF

 

[DEFENDTHISHOUSE]

I’ll take a 20-3 halftime lead and getting the ball at the start of the 3rd quarter all day, every day.

 

[BruiserVol]

I said earlier today that we struggled against 3-3-5 against Austin Peay and Mizzou and someone said that was a small sample size and some other bull lol. We never have performed great against it that I’ve seen.

I don’t know. Clemson is absolutely wrecking App St right now.

 

[patrick]

Yes. Im disappointed in our Oline pass protection. Wasn’t good at all.

 

[TAF]

THIS is a SLAUGHTER...so far...

 

[VolRage]

Are y’all paying attention to USF and Bama? 13 to 14. Our old OC is giving Bama fits.

 

[volfan1631]

I remember the days when our coaches made 0 halftime adjustments. Glad we are past that now

In an initial 7 point spread game, absolutely! Not like we are up 17 against a team we are favored by 40.

 

[pimo1]

Upset alert in bama..this could end up a wild weekend

 

[Sarms58]

I hope our guys know that Arkansas led OSU 21-7 at the half then gave the game away…we need much sharper play on offense…their D scheme may take away the deep ball but we need to block better and run for 150 yards in the second half

 

[Hunter10139]

Man I just don't see the line concerns. It hasn't been perfect but Nico has often had a long time to throw and we've already passed 100 yards rushing. Am I missing something?

 

[901 Orange]

I’ve settled down, but I do have some concerns about the OL.

I'm good with the OL. I think it's just a really weird front 7 we're facing. It's so unorthodox. I love how the OL is finishing plays, especially that right side.

 

[Just a VolinTears]

It's really nice to be able to run the ball as well as we do

 

[Volnbeers]

I switched to Hulu on Thursday

I’m very close to going with youtubetv

 

[Voltrapnbama]

Let’s see how the 2nd half goes before we say they made good adjustments

 

[VOL RN]

wtf if happening. LSU, Bama…I’m about to cry in happiness tears.

 

[Vol737]

Bulls!!

Go Golesh

Gotta think if FLA ditches Napier, Kiffin and Golesh are likely on their short list.

 

[Pride85]

I have a feeling CJH has some choice words for the offense and some praise for the defense. I am interested how he will decide to attack the 3-3-5 defense in the 2nd half.

 

[Vol737]

Bama 14-13 on USF

Go USF!

 

[OldandStillaVol]

Need to clean up penalties and execute on offense better in 2nd half.

 

[Jimmyandjoes]

I said earlier today that we struggled against 3-3-5 against Austin Peay and Mizzou and someone said that was a small sample size and some other bull lol. We never have performed great against it that I’ve seen.

I would like to see some design runs for Nico against this 3-3-5.
We've got to find out we/lb matchup and make them pay. So far, they look to be disguising coverage well

 

[first time caller]

I'd like to see the film showing why we can't gash the 3-3-5 with the run. We should own them at the line for 4-5yds per carry at least if they're going to stay in that defense.

But we are aren't we?
