The Official #21 Tennessee @ Kentucky Game Thread, 7:00 PM ET, ESPN

[HighRockvol]

I’ll be surprised if Kentucky scores again to be honest

We better start covering someone then

 

[C-south]

Joe Crompton III

Compton got drafted

 

[Jaxon_Vol2017]

He misses 80% of the time

Or you could just support our QB?

 

[GoVols1961]

"Nimrod" is such a cool name.

 

[Manning4ever]

There are more vol haters on here than Vol supporters. Going to enjoy this win

 

[vol94]

Devin Leary already has more passing yards today than he has had in either of the last 3 SEC games he has played

Doesn’t surprise me. They worked with him daily over the past two weeks. I didn’t think he would play this well by then again, our DBs are giving their WRs separation and Leary too much time. I’m not the coach but I’d bring the kitchen sink and jam the receivers.

 

[Jaxon_Vol2017]

Across the middle is the problem.

True

 

[hog88]

Lol

Yeah that guy is a dumbass

 

[perico]

That’s sad considering KY usually has no passing game.

We are missing Hadden. Plus Brown is a talented WR

 

[wmcovol]

Vols need to stay fast.

 

[praxite33]

Or you could just support our QB?

I'm not saying I don't. I love Joe... But he's one of the biggest weaknesses on this team.

 

[OrangeSquid]

Way to play Nimrod and Milton!!! Take the cats momentum away. Now a defensive 3 and out and another score before the half.
Open the 2nd with a drive and TD and the stadium will be all ORANGE!
GBO!!

 

[DeepSpringsVol]

We need Pierce to get rolling. That defensive front has been what has improved our secondary from last to this year has been taking the qbs opportunity to sit and pick their target.

 

[BruisedOrange]

Why don't we run that DB-falls-down pass play more often? Halzle is killing us!

 

[Other_Guy]

I’m surprised they’re struggling tonight though. They’ve been the strength of the defense so far this year

Struggled against UF. Despite the holds, was inconsistent against Bama. Both had bad OLs.

 

[Orange931]

Joe Can't throw. We are we wasting time throwing the ball.

The problem is consistency

 

[NOLAPhil]

"OK, run streaks and come back to the ball."

"That won't work"

"We are playing tennessee"

"OH, yeah"

 

[VOL RN]

Just needed a wr that can separate and ACTUALLY CATCH THE BALL!!!! What a novel concept maybe some other wrs can learn from that!!!

Or a defender to fall his face.

 

[Volbrando]

Put in Nico

 

[VOLINVONORE]

Receiver for once got seperation

Defender fell down.

 

[perico]

Compton got drafted

Milton likely will be too. Late round flyer

 

[JoeMiltonsAgent]

A stop here would be nice. Score again and get the ball 1st 2nd half

I like where your head is at

 

[TexasVolfan1]

Boom or bust type offense. Need the defense to step up

 

[DaddyChad]

That run got him going to throw, perhaps that one got him into a big passing day.

Yeah I think he almost has too much nervous energy till he runs over someone and gets hit

 

[AdoptedVOL]

Nimrod….is he the somewhat the likely WR to replace Hyatt? Not talking about slot position or whatever, just THE GUY that can run a route very well and get open! I’ve liked what I’ve seen from his limited snaps this season.

Agree! He's made several clutch catches on the slant. Great hands.
