The Official #5 Tennessee vs. Missouri Game Thread, 12:00 PM ET, CBS

[BJWeeks]

Was hoping we would come out looking like a team that deserves to be in the playoffs but instead playing down to the competition

 

[W.TN.Orange Blood]

Don't we have a QB spy in this game like Banks. If so, I haven't seen him going to the QB..
Each time Cook runs we just let him have a good day at it.

 

[ButchPlz]

The official stood over the ball for 14 seconds while Missouri ran players on one at a time. The rulebook says the defense has to substitute "promptly". That didn't happen.

Correct. Drunk Rick saying they get all the time they want is idiotic. When the first man subbed and they didn't immediately run out number 2, that should have been it.

 

[tnvols72]

If MO's QB is gonna insist on running without sliding someone on the D needs to light. him. up.

By the time they get to him they are tackling his feet

 

[volbound1700]

I feel like we lost a little bit of our mojo after Georgia and we need to get it back. The first part of the 2nd quarter looked great but those drops by Hyatt gave Missouri momentum and we haven't reclaimed it.

 

[VOLnVANDYland]

Hooker is getting it out now. Dropped passes have hurt us.

Eh, i give Hyatt a pass, those are the only 2 i have seen this year. Hooker is taking sacks unnecessarily

 

[DeltaVol05]

Still can’t stop the QB run.

 

[chuckb1448]

And someone please meet Cook over the middle and lay his ass out!

We need someone to hang in the middle, their qb keeps wanting to run

 

[igotworms]

Even simple runs TN cant stop it

If they'd only listen to you tho right?

 

[G0V0LS33]

And someone please meet Cook over the middle and lay his ass out!

This

Ha! You been hitting that slappy stuff huh?

 

[volmoon]

One play. Solid evaluation there

Read first sentence and missed the rest?

 

[ENGRVOL]

Pretty disappointing there. Had the right play call to stop the qb run but still got 8 yards

 

[rocketskates]

We have almost 400 yards already. What ya mean? Don’t forget Missouri had the #13 ranked defense in the country. Don’t forget that this Missouri team should have beat UGA. Don’t forget UGA didn’t score a TD till the last 8 minutes of the game. They not bad and we will win easly and have over 600 yards

yep. Despite their record, we have the second most points scored against them this season and it was in one half of football.

 

[amaralfan1]

BVS running rampant right now. You guys need to chill out. Even Jeremy Pruitt had Georgia on the ropes in 2020. It will be fine. We are a better team.

 

[WestTennesseeVol]

10 games into the season and somehow people are still discovering this defense isn’t the greatest

 

[Flipdaddy]

This is frustrating

 

[VolArmy74]

So it’s essentially an automatic delay of game if the defense wants to just keep shutting guys in at a snail's pace?

The rulebook says the defense has to hurry. The official should have stepped off the ball when they were slowly running out players one at a time.

 

[UTfan94]

If MO's QB is gonna insist on running without sliding someone on the D needs to light. him. up.

I couldn't agree more. He should be afraid to run.

 

[Wezcoast]

Looks like Hooker is limping a bit...

Has been since the first qtr.

 

[RabunRaven]

If not for all of those Mizz penalties that have been called - this game would be different.

 

[tdd]

Again….making a below average college quarterback look above average.

Sorry guys but we are not a top 4 team. Maybe top 15 but just not good enough defensively at this point. We need players, players and more players. Just not good enough at this point. The past two weeks has showed us that if we are honest with each other and ourselves.

 

[SonOfGodVolforlife]

Y’all need to calm down. Ruining my buzz.

Foreal, so now winning isn’t enough for vol fans, if we don’t win by 30+ we suck, we can’t beat uscjr and blah blah . We staring at 11-1 in the face, one game at a time and enjoy the ride!

 

[malibuvol]

Is Chavis still the defensive coordinator?? Everybody knew that QB draw was coming...

 

[GOVOLS44]

Better step the F up here boys. LFG
