The Official #23/20 Tennessee vs. UTSA, 4:00 PM ET, SEC Network

[UTK]

Nico has better pocket awareness than Joe already lol

 

[Power T-Rev]

I’ve seen enough of Nico. Put in Navy

 

[2VolsDeep]

Yeah but granted it’s a team we should shut out

Nico should have been able to start the 2nd half

 

[mpfvol]

Nico doesn't need a red shirt if he is good he is gone in 3 anyways he has 4 years why redshirt .

 

[UTK]

Not even a first down

On Thornton, turner to look before making the simple play

 

[JoeMiltonsAgent]

the discourse on this board about the quarterback position is just toxic and unhelpful lol.

Nico clearly isn't ready to start, but these are important quality reps. Two contrasting ideas can both be true lol

Nico looks awfully talented and awfully skinny lol

 

[SayUWantAreVOLution]

Look up film on Erik Ainge. Some of us actually watched him. Played a thousand times better as a true freshman than Milton does now as a sixth-year senior.

Doesn't change recent history. Why didn't Ewers start at Ohio State and why didn't Arch walk right in at TX and boot Ewers?

Both are incredible talents according to the stars.

It doesn't mean they were ready right out of high school. It just doesn't but I assume your watching Ainge makes you better than Heupel at judging QBs.

Let’s not burn a red shirt for one possessio.

He's NOT Redshirting. Heupel has already said that and it's been posted a thousand times on here. He won't be here long enough to waste a RS on. He's probably gone after his Jr year.

 

[KeyVol14]

Yeah but granted it’s a team we should shut out

2 bad drives on defense...I get it. There were also a lot of people saying this would be a grind out win or potential loss.

At least when a FR makes FR mistakes there's a legit reason for it

 

[Col_Cathcart]

My understanding is that he is a liability with pass blocking

We don’t complete downfield passes anyway.

 

[DuckInAPen]

Put in Navy

Heupel's afraid he'll show up Milton and Iamaleava both and expose his policy of favoritism! Replace this staff with Coach Prime and flip the whole roster!

 

[Pride85]

All you Nico lovers… what’s up with that throw?

Do not stoop to their level. Nico needs the game reps to get the rhythm going just for that exact reason. Not used to the atmosphere.

 

[Orange931]

One thing I’ll say about Joe, he doesn’t turn the ball over much.

 

[cobbwebb0710]

Heupel is stubborn for not playing Gaston Moore!

 

[TennesseeOrange]

You can actually support both Milton and Nico. Don’t need to take shots at one to boost the other.

This

 

[CAVPUT]

Good grief Thornton. Oregon obviously doesn’t miss him.

You get a WR making a move from Oregon to UT and you have to ask why? If he's all that and a box of crackerjacks he'd be on the field in that high octane offense with a proven QB and a top 10 team. Might be seeing why he made a move. Great body....except the hands.

 

[T Vols 21]

2 bad drives on defense...I get it. There were also a lot of people saying this would be a grind out win or potential loss.

I definitely didn’t think it would be a grind out. It’s getting really frustrating though as a TN fan when it seems we lose bc of our own inconsistency not getting boat raced. We looked great the first half and I thought something clicked.

 

[jasonvol18]

All you Nico lovers… what’s up with that throw?

Thornton dropped it, that's what's up. If all the Milton lovers say it should be caught if it hits the WR's hands, then that goes for both QB's. Also is a true freshman, not a 6 yr senior. And Nico can throw on the run, Milton can't!

 

[C-south]

Look up film on Erik Ainge. Some of us actually watched him. Played a thousand times better as a true freshman than Milton does now as a sixth-year senior.

Didn’t Clausen play as a freshman?

 

[Pride85]

He can’t throw it and catch it at the same time. What you watching??

Both throws were off target. I want him to succeed, but you guys just want Joe to not play.

 

[molsen81]

We let The Alamo score 14 on us. I hope we use the bye wisely.

 

[jaxvol]

He's NOT Redshirting. Heupel has already said that and it's been posted a thousand times on here. He won't be here long enough to waste a RS on. He's probably gone after his Jr year.

I know Nico isn’t, but other freshman are.

 

[GiveHim6InSC]

Danny White needs to back up the Brinks truck to Coach Prime’s door and not leave without a “yes”

 

[HighRockvol]

We play way to far off third and short play up idiots
