The Official #3 Tennessee vs. (#14 FCS) UT Martin Game Thread, 12:00 PM ET, SEC Network

[Jaxon_Vol2017]

It’s the effort. Not the talent. We don’t look like we’re trying right now.

They probably aren't. That's why they aren't starters.

 

[FLVOL_79]

Does UT Martin still have their starters in?

Of course

 

[djohnnyg]

Put Jackson in...

Milton always killing momentum.

Very true.

 

[JCHateSteve]

I thought they called him out of bounds before the review

Refs must have took the under.

 

[chef3531]

I expected this kind of game in the 2nd half tbh. We knew we were going to go vanilla on offense. The kicking game... yeah, that's been bad this half.

 

[GAVol]

So you’re telling me the backups look like backups.

 

[DC_Vol]

This is actually good for Tim Banks to see. Got a lot of guys that haven’t seen reps at all other than practice. Got a lot of mistakes on film already to work with these guys on.

The meltdown from some people over this is pretty entertaining.

 

[GreyWolf1129]

That being said...Vols need to put the final stamp on this game with a long TD drive.

 

[RAVOL]

No doubt gotten sloppy. Come on O let's get back some juice. In CHRIST Alone

 

[Jaxon_Vol2017]

Everyone of them

 

[EricFreakingBerry]

Agreed on the defensive depth, but Milton has been fine for the most part. He's also being protected by backups and throwing to backups.

Annoying ass ending to a game against a weak opponent. Please, PLEASE replace Willie Martinez with someone competent ASAP

Well according to some on VN , he cant coach them unless he has talent. I guess they forgot when he was here with Butch and our DBs were still not coached to look back for the ball and still were out of position. Other DB coaches does not seem to have a problem coaching up 2 and 3* and putting them in the right position. So just wait until we get some talent then we will see how great of a coach he is

 

[UTfan94]

Don't hold back, run the offense!

 

[apevol]

y'all bitch and moan way too much

 

[hardyemt_p]

Miss the spread and could drop

Lol… momentum

 

[TheMookieMonster]

“It’s only UTM.”

Trust me. I get it. That first half was exceptional. But you play 4 quarters, not 2. And the effort this half, even by the 3rd/4th string has been bad. Energy is not where it needs to be. I just want to see even the backups play with more energy than they have been. We’re asleep.

Refs are ready to go to Calhoun's for some BBQ.

How he managed to get hired by Tennessee again is a mystery

 

[ttocswob]

Magnum PI

 

[C-south]

It’s funny that you can tell Milton is consciously taking some heat off the deep balls.

He's coached at plenty of other schools over the years and they were ALL excited when he left or was fired. We would be unstoppable on O and D if we had a DB coach.

 

[GrizzlyVol]

Seriously people are bitching about this game games been done since halftime, we're playing everyone, #3 in the rankings and starters out after 2 quarters and still bitching

 

[GAVol]

Run the damn ball and end this.

It won't be any different;. No speedy guys out there
