The Official #19 Tennessee vs. Texas A&M Game Thread, 3:30 PM ET, CBS

Running game
Special teams
Defense

so are you hoping Vols play like that against UGA in about a month?

 

[KeyVol14]

I will say I'm not opposed to letting Nico get snaps, but honestly when is the opportunity to do that? This team goes as the run game goes.

 

[Jimmyandjoes]

I’ve said it for two years now. He’s going to be a starter in the nfl haven’t had a good rb in the league since I’ve watched ut

Kamara

 

[MeanOrange]

6 Year QB playing like a Freshman, Maybe should play Nico.

Don't forget our elite 100 yards passing LOL.

 

[FlVols]

Glad we’re 5-1. Go Vols. You about scared the p..s out of me!!! A win is a win!!!

 

[ENGRVOL]

26 straight wins with the orange letters at home.


See you next month Georgia

 

[tnvols72]

Washington wins

 

[T-for-Tennessee]

All you experts out there, tell me what you would do with this offense? Milton isn't Hooker. Nico isn't Milton or Hooker. Give this staff some credit for creating the best rushing attack in the SEC. When's the last time we did that? This ain't our year but it is still going to be fun. Get on board.

 

[BigALWiLson]

We won. Win again next week that is the goal every week going forward

 

[Jxn Vol]

I have made negative comments about Joe and I stand behind what I have said.

But I need to off set that with some positives.

Jalen Wright is special
Jackson Ross came up big today with that beautiful punt.
Campbell is a solid kicker. The one he missed was tough/long.
Entire front 7 on defense played with their hair on fire. Loved it.
Cooper is extremely important for this offense.

Kamara

Oooh nice . Can’t believe I forgot him.

 

[volfan102455]

You must not recall true SEC football. Sometimes sh1t just happens. Offense sells tickets Defense win you championships. That still rings true today. It is a nice thing the defense can dominate a game

I had to quote this just because - I remember those days and love the defensive games!

 

[TikiVol]

I will take the win but we scored ONE offensive touchdown! We have got to get better than that if we want to beat Bama or UGA.

Or Mizzou and Kentucky

 

[loservol]

I will say I'm not opposed to letting Nico get snaps, but honestly when is the opportunity to do that? This team goes as the run game goes.

Probably the UConn game in Nov.

 

[Mccage]

With a Qb with a higher fb iq we win this one by 17+

Blame Milton if you want….I’m blaming stupid penalties

 

[Tenacjim]

Defense and special teams were stout, running backs did a great job. Now if we just had a bit more of that forward pass thing going on .....

You mean the “throw game”?

 

[djohnnyg]

Bama will key on the run...so u want Milton's dumb ass to be the deciding factor?

 

[Jimmyandjoes]

All you experts out there, tell me what you would do with this offense? Milton isn't Hooker. Nico isn't Milton or Hooker. Give this staff some credit for creating the best rushing attack in the SEC. When's the last time we did that? This ain't our year but it is still going to be fun. Get on board.

Kick my damn field goals when I have a chance. Coach left points on the field today, and it's on him. This should have been a double digit win

 

[Tenacjim]

Kamara

Second string at UT then NFL offensive rookie of the year.….

 

[TennMan101]

Don't forget what low quality football this was in mid october. Both of these teams should drop in the rankings after this hot mess.

It was a game of nothing. Neither team performed, made good plays. Or had good play calling. Defense was nothing special which is never good. Kicking was good and refs proved they could pull and throw flags and blow whistles.

"Low quality" is what we should all remember.

Mid october and I don't know what this team is about.

Both teams are ranked inside the top 35. A win over a top 35 team will move you forward in the polls.

 

[UTFanHades]

For us:

Special Teams

The Defense

Running Game


So 2/3 of the units and 1/2 the offense

This is 100% correct. It’s also correct that this team has no chance vs Bama or UGA playing like they did today.

 

[Drewbydoo]

TN can easily say that special teams, the defense, and the running game all went well.
Right??????????
Or am I missing something? Maybe.....because I have had a number of beers.

I think special teams and kicking went well today. This defense isn't nearly good enough to beat a good or very good SEC team. We'll find out next week right?

 

[BigALWiLson]

Or Mizzou and Kentucky

Kentucky will NOT run on us. Lol. MIZZ is nore dangerous. The kittens are a one trick pony

 

[posivol]

I feel about our offense how I felt about our defense last year. It would be nice to put complete games together second half of the season with the East on the line

next week

 

[SpaceCoastVol]

Don't forget our elite 100 yards passing LOL.

We put up 230 rushing on a team that averages giving up 83 per game... I'm fine with it
