The Official #4 Tennessee @ Arkansas Game Thread, 7:30 PM ET, ABC

[patrick]

Vols were out coached, out played, over confident and unprepared.

Just an abysmal performance by the offense. Oline was/is atrocious. Vols will be lucky to finish 8 and 4 - losses incoming at the hands of GA and Bama.

Unfortunately no playoff this year - frankly we will never see the playoff if Heupel doesn’t get a solid oline coach and solid oline play.

Elarbee will get Heupel fired.

 

[utvolpj]

Well it’s a new age. He makes more than 99% of the fan base.

The money he makes doesn't mean he can be attacked. That's just trashy

 

[YankeeVol]

We attacked QBs before NIL

True.

 

[Majors]

Jesus Christ, now everybody is gonna attack this kid.

That last play was Joe Milton like you have to let you players make a play

 

[adam.vol]

Go to church tomorrow, ladies and gents. Nico is not our savior. It’s just football.

 

[Ernest T. Vol]

Don't ruff the punter...game over

Catch the punt and might have made the difference. Gave them 25 yards and lost field position.

 

[Vols919]

They’re not good. They had the 108th ranked defense coming into this game.

Good ****ing God I didn't know they were that bad.

Someone needs to be fired.

 

[KnoxRealtorVOL]

You seriously think he was the problem tonight??

 

[BP4Prez]

We looked pitiful on offense. This is not on Martinez. Good lord

 

[n_huffhines]

Can we have a qb w half a brain please.

Jesus, dude.

 

[VOL RN]

0 - for October incoming.

 

[Creeker]

You need a new team to root for.

Nah, I’m good thanks.

 

[airvols]

Offense has issues with a freshman quarterback and play calling. Josh needs to open up the play calling.

 

[Tigervol]

Heup play calling crap! Where are the TE seam routes with all the bliz’n they did. His fault all the way to put Nico in bad spot all night

 

[HuntlandVolinColo]

Clearly, Texas is head and shoulders above everyone else

Not the way played Miss St last week.

Bama and UGA are still the teams I fear most.

 

[Jaxon_Vol2017]

Yes it's idiotic. Anyone who thinks the 2 are comparable is a moron

He called the game like butch. It's 100% comparable, anyone who thinks it isn't comparable is a moron

 

[JMSqb11]

Not running the ball in 1st down on Arkansas’ 25 yard line against a 3 man defensive front was baffling to me. We had 2 timeouts so the entire field was in use. Sampson is explosive enough to get 5-10+ yards with a 5 on 3 matchup in the trenches

 

[DEFENDTHISHOUSE]

keeps on giving.

The head man was the issue tonight.

 

[landscapingvol]

keeps on giving.

No, the stupidity came from not blitzing a young qb and dropping back in coverage

 

[RockyTop140]

How come every time a team loses to Arkansas, it's because they suck? It's better because Arkansas played a good game? Well, Arkansas played a good game, and they are better than i gave them credit for.

we scored the same amount Auburn did against them. Lmao quit it. We sucked ass. End of story

 

[1world1love]

We need to run Niko more. It’s the only way to slow down the rush.

 

[Big Orange in Bama]

it is what it is. We didn’t deserve it, Nico is overrated. Defense is suspect against decent teams. I bleed deep Orange Blood, but this was devastating.

 

[volbound1700]

We held them to 19 points. The issue is clearly our offense! I don't want one negative comment about the defense.

 

[VolsFan-TX]

Clearly, Texas is head and shoulders above everyone else

Glad we don’t play them in the regular season this year

 

[tnmarktx]

Never been impressed with Nico. He has no emotions, honestly reminds me of Joe Milton. If we don’t rough the punter, good chance we still win. Just a very poor performance all around. We will always have 1-2 games like this a year. It’s just hard to win in the SEC. Our goal should be playoffs once every three years.

Nico is a freshman, he’ll be a star just needs a better o line and wr’s
