What channel am I on? A TN orange cladded DB turned his head? Syfy channel?

 

[865er]

Holy ****. We made a great play on a deep ball.

 

[SonOfGodVolforlife]

See how he turned his head around and no flag.. crazy how that works guys

 

[rocketskates]

There you go Slaughter. If you just turn they don’t call PI

 

[jbr82]

Way to go Slaughter! That’s how it’s done

 

[TNVOL68]

I think I‘ve heard true freshman more tonight than I have in all my years of watching college football

 

[G0V0LS33]

Please Please please

 

[hndog609]

Holy S...DB playing the ball

 

[tbh]

His accuracy has been good tonight, and I've been one who has thought he would never improve his accuracy. His decision making skills has still been shaky though. I think there have been several opportunities for him to use his feet and keep a drive going this game where he has not. I do think that is something that can improve with in game playing practice.

Yep. His consistency needs work, but as others have mentioned he does seem to find some air/success when he plays off the run. I do think he forgets he's a monster size-wise and could make some defenders earn those tackles.

 

[RiverVol]

Slaughter turned around and looked for the ball!!!! wooohooooOOOoooo!!!!

 

[RockyTopJA]

I’m sorry…how did he just pronounce Iamaleava?

 

[TrumpedUpVol]

Interception! Score here and it's 100% iced.

 

[Other_Guy]

And you’ll be the first to whine when he has a bad game next fall and we lose one.

No one is thinking tenn even sniffs Atlanta. Honestly I think 9 wins is a good season. Defense plays like they have tonight and 9 wins is easily attainable.

 

[luthervol]

it's huge in recruiting

No doubt. I was making fun of the "it's a meaningless game" crowd.

 

[Arrested Devolopment]

A pick would be superb

Called it!

 

[UTFanHades]

I'm not caring for Haddens play, was caring for the receiver there when he should have dove for an interception

He’s a problem child. I wonder how much of the locker room problems are him and Jeremy “No Thanks” Banks. I would think nearly all.

 

[volmanjr]

Best defensive back play all night

 

[VOLifornia]

What! Did he turn his head and look back? Holy mackerel… they can learn…. Awesome!

 

[crawdaddyjc]

BOOOOOOM

 

[Megatron88]

That’s two big plays for the Secondary

 

[Memphisvol87]

I wish slaughter could find his home at safety but that coverage was better than any corner we have right now

 

[AllVolBallYall]

"Terrific job by Doneiko Slaughter"

Greg McElroy

 

[minorvol]

Slaughter!

 

[GiveHim6InSC]

That is HOW you play DEEeE

 

[volinbham]

but he's a true freshman. LOL
