The Official #18 Tennessee vs. #1 Georgia Game Thread, 3:30 PM ET, CBS

We’re just not giving anything on tape for vandy to see

Vandy played GA better than us. They may beat us.

 

[Delmar]

This game should show everyone how far behind we are in personnel and staff. It’s not even close really

Most accurate comment so far. We are woefully short on depth after all the injuries. Georgia loses players and they just plug in more 5 stars.

DB’s remain awful. And Martinez and Banks need to go. As far as offense goes, we need more O linemen badly. I’m sorry but Ollie Lane and Dayne Davis are not SEC linemen. No issues with Josh unless he chooses not to make changes in his staff. His offensive system is fine. Last year showed what the right QB can do in Heupel’s system and Joe ain’t it.

Back in the day, I'm sure Leonard Little was held a lot. He still made plays.

Go away. Seriously

This is the UT game thread

 

[GUNTERSVOL]

No confidence in Joe. & rightly so

If you find yourself validating or justifying your own quotes you need to seek professional guidance.

 

[BradstarVols]

That’s my point. JG is better QB than Milton

lol the GA of today isn't the same GA of JG's day.

I want to try a fake punt somewhere in this second half.

Rather onside the 2nd half opener.

Lol hell, Joe might be Vandys best player

You said "doesn't require special attention" only part of your post I disagreed with. Still do!

There are times where he could easily run for a first down but we don’t dare take any risk at home, with nothing to lose, against the number one team in the country.

 

[LLcoolDave]

Why isn’t joe a run first guy? Because he’s not a pass first qb

as big as he is , he seems like a timid runner

 

[BradstarVols]

Vandy played GA better than us. They may beat us.

0% chance

 

[BLUTickbusdriver]

While I agree with your assessment of Georgia versus Tennessee as far as personnel goes, the score is highly impacted by the lack of offensive execution by both players and play calling. There have been opportunities but not the execution. I'd say Tennessee left 7 to 10 points out there.

Vandy played GA better than us thus far….smh:/

 

[allen phillips]

What was Heupel going to do….this is the same quarterback that ran out of bounds with no time left on clock. This guy has no football IQ. He couldn’t risk Joe throwing into triple coverage and getting a pick or taking a sack. Joe is like coaching with one hand tied behind your back. It’s time to move on starting with next Saturday in Neyland against Vandy. We need to play for next season starting next week.

The simple fact is that CH is handicapped with a secondary that has been woeful for three years and has a mediocre QB who is too slow, too dumb, and too scared that he is going to get hurt. We are lucky to be where we are. CJH is so handicapped that he cannot call the plays he wants

 

[VOLinAL]

Kinda hoping Milton stubs his toe in the way out and can’t go.

 

[orangerush]

Second half highlights on the way.

 

[orange_glory]

I wish Peyton would slip in the locker and offer a new game plan.

Peyton and Dolly curse is real

 

[DEFENDTHISHOUSE]

You might also realize there's a reason they're going to set the SEC record for consecutive wins while going after their 3rd NC. This isn't Vandy

Yeah, but this effort from UT and staff is utterly pathetic.

 

[TNVOLnTX]

If only there were some type of portal that Heupels
lazy ass could have used to bridge the gap. We know he wasn’t using the time shaving or on the treadmill. Maybe he should have been working the phones.

This may surprise you, but we did in fact use the portal. You just naively think that every kid we call just comes running on over to play for TN? Your gonna take the absolute best players that are willing to come. Maybe they're just not willing.

 

[TennVols12]

I’m not the biggest JM fan on this board, but certainly not a hater…but I cannot wait to see the same ones calling for Nico to be benched after a bad outing next season…you know it’s coming.

 

[PA Vol]

Move on from joe have some guts

It’ll happen against Vandy or the bowl and then we will be even angrier.

 

[VolonTyne]

He needs some real game action heading into next year. Or do you plan for him to play in the bowl game?

 

[Matt2496]

Okay this is ridiculous. The 18-20 Georgia team didn’t have near the talent this team does.

That's not true. They were loaded with 5 stars and had comparable levels of talent even back then. Just a quick look at their talent composites confirms this.

 

[SonOfGodVolforlife]

If it gets picked then what. 6 dbs at the goal line i cant make you understand they wanted us to throw short

If that was true then we needed to throw a screen to wright and say go get me a fkin touchdown.

 

[BigOrangeD]

We only need two or three more years and then we will be ready to compete.

 

[Bryan1]

That’s my point. JG is better QB than Milton

I'd bet this Ga defense is better than the ones JG played against.
