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

[DEFENDTHISHOUSE]

The red flags have been there all year this year.

 

[Delmar]

Second week in a row that we try a field goal while down big. My question is why?

 

[vavolfan6]

We are just waving the white flag...pathetic

 

[advancedrescue27]

Well, we should all be used to pathetic and dysfunctional football by now

Oh I am, I was positive this would happen today. I’m more surprised that TN scored a touch down

 

[HighRockvol]

Heupel is no better than butch a fg there what a dumbass

 

[TheVolsFrog]

55 yard FG is low %. Better to just punt there and pin them deep.

True but we're so far down, lay it all on the field and just go for it at this point

 

[Pennheel]

I hate it when coaches have loyalty to certain people over others, at the expense of either the team or the future. Again, this is exactly what would've happened in 2021 had Milton not gotten injured. Heck, he might have stuck with Milton through 2022 and we would have never seen how good Hooker was or had an 11 win season.

This is so Pruitt-esque it's sickening.

I actually respect Huepel for that. It shows that he won't give up on a guy. Recruits coming in see that and respect that. Nico will be more well polished. This experiment with Milton didn't pan out the same as Hooker. I'm rooting for the guy,but it is what it is. I'll continue to root for the guy until he's finished. It's frustrating.... Not to mention it ain't all on the offense.... This Defense has now laid and egg two straight games. Banks might not be back next week.

 

[Namorto1]

Heupel is literally blowing all the credibility he gained last year. This team is average at best. Is this what we are to expect next year?

 

[Jersey Moonshine]

Judging by Josh's reaction, milton is just a headcase with no real ability.

And yet he continues to play him. Even over Hooker.

 

[Matt2496]

I'm not calling for his firing, but Heupel isn't the man.

 

[CoachClick]

9 million.

[TennesseeTarheel]

Could have used those 3 points.

 

[casetopia]

Maybe Josh wants that jimbo retirement package.

 

[Godfatha]

Not that it matters but Huepel has lost me.

 

[OptimisticFan]

Please explain or elaborate

The people who say the FG was the right call also believe Joe Milton is not the problem. Lol!

 

[orange_glory]

Neyland stadium is GA home field advantage

 

[calban]

Field goal. Heup must be shell shocked.

 

[Vol4Life2289]

You can link me that till the cows come home, but if he only plays in 4 games, he will redshirt. Zero downside to it.

Resshirting was never in the plans because his NIL is probably just for 4 years.

 

[jaybird_1981]

Judging by Josh's reaction, milton is just a headcase with no real ability.

And Heupel has chosen him as starter twice. That is on him.

 

[vol94]

Yea, the ignorant don’t understand this and want to fire the coach…

Silliness. Now, I’m concerned with lack of adjustments and I don’t care for our defensive schemes, but Heup deserves more time. We will know more about Josh during Nico’s jr yr as Heup’s players will be Freshmen-seniors.

 

[Spawn]

Every facet had been bad. Ready for the misery to end.

 

[teeball]

I'm beginning to think Golesh was the true mastermind behind this team ... Heupel is just coaching DUMB !!!

 

[Sarms58]

After years of this makes me think we are cursed

Six coached in 15 years pretty much destroys your recruiting base….at least now with free one time transfers you can get talent in faster (but you can also lose a lot quickly as we saw when Pruitt was fired)…

 

[cherokeeeVOL]

I think I’d go for it but whatever at this point

 

[Drewbydoo]

Camera man / producer trying to minimize showing empty seats at Neyland ... for now. Framing will be different for the next 5 to 10 game min.
