The Official #6 Tennessee vs. #7 Clemson Orange Bowl Game Thread, 8:00 PM ET, ESPN

[FlSooner]

In some ways this game is fitting with so many posting for Tim Banks head (and Willie Martinez). I think he definitely deserves to get his upgraded talent here before passing judgement. Can't complain so far tonight

 

[VOLnMiami]

I think our 2022 B-Team is playing pretty well.

 

[first time caller]

He's inconsistent and struggles to control his touch on passes. It's not that he can't make them. He can. He just struggles with being consistent. He'll give you big plays, for sure. But it's the consistency that becomes the challenge. And consistency is something you really need for quarterback play - and planning offensive schemes around them.

Words, words, words...more words

Hadden can talk but 12 yard cushion. Geez man.

 

[87&91ALUM]

Quit whiffing on these tackles

 

[OldVolMan]

He looked better when the run game started. Funny how that works

maybe that releases little pressure from him

 

[HighRockvol]

Let’s go vols finish this off

 

[VolAllen]

I honestly expected to be asleep by now. I figured Clemson would be 35-7. Pretty surprised right now to be honest. And a little drunk.

 

[patrick]

The guy who just threw another great td?

Ok. How many games next year before Milton gets replaced because he is the same dude he has been his entire career.

Vols should have at least 5 touchdowns already with a capable qb. Clemson defense isnt that good.

 

[I Love Lamp]

To be fair, our offense is sucking

It is really odd our defense is putting us in a position to win.The simulation is broken.

 

[Putbacks]

Another hold goes uncalled

 

[VolunteerCeltic]

Defense needs to attack

 

[G0V0LS33]

Anyone covering him this drive???

 

[VOLINVONORE]

Finally a touch pass. Nice throw.

One of those coaches is the weak link.

 

[SonOfGodVolforlife]

Shipley is their only player. Clamp down defense

 

[Boone&Crockett]

He’s a true freshman playing a team with equal or more talent than ACC is accustomed to outside of Clemson. Plenty of reason to be high on this kid’s future.

That's a very Cade Klubnicky thing to say

 

[Voltopia]

Tennessee, you shut Clemson out this drive, you are going to be knocking on the door of 11-2. C'mon now, KEEP IT GOING.

 

[VOL RN]

2 receivers going pro. Everyone else has played in this system. Maybe just simplified somewhat. The last drive they just scored on looked a little more like it.

“Played in this system” doesn’t mean they’re up and running to what our 1st string was at. Next man up, yadda yadda.

 

[87&91ALUM]

Good grief…Swiss cheese D

 

[Volbrando]

Cmon D Dangit

 

[CAVPUT]

Come on Banks. Don't let off the pressure.

 

[G0V0LS33]

Slaughter was sitting on the out route

 

[johnboyhunter]

I’d like to see Miss St win their bowl for Leach but that’s about it

100% agree

 

[Volstylexx]

You can't deny Joe has improved. If he can eliminate unforced sacks and improve decision making in zone read & RPO situations his upside is HUGE. In fairness to Joe the lack of UT's ability to establish inside run game has made itu much tougher on hum

I don’t know FI. I think it’s fair that people see it from both perspectives. He’s shown glimpses but not a lot of growth imo. He still has the same limitations and the same upside from day 1. In comparison to Hooker it’s night and day. We need a “hooker” qb to sustain the success of this season.
