Yea Belicheck is a model of fitness. Makes total sense.

Andy Reid is an absolute beefcake in his own right

 

[chattavol420]

HIs first half against Bama was better

Disagree. Milton overthrew 2 short touchdown passes in the first half against bama. I don’t recall any overthrows today. And Kentucky’s secondary is better than Bama’s.

 

[BruisedOrange]

So 5 scores on 5 possessions. Let’s see what VolNation is upset about at halftime…..

Whatever it is, it's nothing that a good benchin' or fahrin' wouldn't fix.

Yea former Mr. Universe right?

 

[orangerush]

Have you ever seen a play that the refs screwed up so completely that they screwed both teams? The pass to Keyton obviously he was out of bounds when he had control. That said we had already ran a play and they still reviewed it. And then they get the review wrong and screw Kentucky again. At this point this have to be some kind of game by the officials to see how much BS they can get away with?

Feels good when KY gets screwed twice.

It ain’t the offense tonight. Kudos to them.

 

[Hbg]

I do t think I’ve seen a play this year in which Tyler Baron wasn’t held

He wasn’t on the last touchdown run before half, matter of fact he wasn’t touched.

 

[TheVolsFrog]

Exactly. But VN spends all its time saying "he doesn't trust Joe so he'll kick it."

Reality says: you take the points.

yeah you're getting the ball back after the half..no need in forcing it, bad snap, tip at the line, int.
The big issue was playing slow the last 2 mins

Need TDS not FG on road

 

[JustinVol]

Listen. I’ve forgot more football than you’ll ever know. Go back to your white claw.

You sounds old af

 

[GoVols1961]

When the time comes, next year or this year, I hope Nico isn't a bust. I would fear several posters on here would jump off a bridge.

 

[GAVol]

A QB that is 10-12 for 120 yards. Makes no sense.

Except… it makes complete sense if you’ve actually watched him play all year.

 

[87&91ALUM]

officials blew that catch…we got a break. Some crazy play calling and lucky to get three. I hope we can make some adjustments and hang on to a win.

 

[SayUWantAreVOLution]

I haven’t been the biggest Joe supporter but he is managing this game, our d line can’t get any pressure tonight for whatever reason, Leary is sitting back and picking us apart on every drop back and the secondary is missing Hadden, it’s not all on the refs… sorry dude

After the BS in the Bama game and the overall trash I've seen today in other games, the SEC refs suck but they suck both ways. They just aren't good.

That's given. It's like complaining about the rain at this point. The refs are bad every week. Move on.

 

[CAVPUT]

You guys are going to second guess ANYTHING Heupel does. If he'd taken a shot there, VN would be all over it: TAKE THE POINTS! in that very situation, even with Hooker if it failed.

Yep. Milton isn't good at making quick decisions plus our WR's aren't getting a lot of separation. Just a little too far out and if it's not a bang, bang play, we likely see the clock run out and leave 3 pts on the field. With the way our defense is playing plus our penalties, we need every point we can get. If we can't get to Leary, I think we're in for a long second half. He's not the crappy QB everyone seemed to imply he was.

 

[JMSqb11]

It ain’t the offense tonight. Kudos to them.

Yeah. It ain’t even the run defense. Secondary being trash is the sole unit keeping us from blowing out the Kittens!

 

[Flipdaddy]

Pretty even stats

 

[JMSqb11]

I feel very comfortable with the result of this game if we go out and score every drive of the second half. Believe that!

Joe can't play in the secondary, too ...... although JH might want to look into it, at this rate.

 

[WestTennesseeVol]

During Fulmer era we beat KY like 31 in a row (Fulmer didn't win all those but he continued tradition).

I remember when we lost to UK under Dooley and my granddaddy just turned the TV off and looked at me and said that was the first time he’s ever turned off a Tennessee game before the end

 

[BigOrangeD]

Seriously we can't take a shot on a corner or a post with 7 seconds?

Joe might get sacked.

 

[LibertyVol]

A lousy defense maybe.

 

[VolFreakJosh]

I still believe the players threw that game.

Someone call me?

 

[NetworkVol]

Did coach say "man coverage" in the interview? That'll be refreshing.
