The Official #7 Tennessee vs. Kent State Game Thread, 7:45 PM ET, SEC Network

[utvolpj]

kent st left 25 yards wide open. kick the onside. F’em. and anyone who doesnt like it can kick rocks.

See that's kind of helping their coach out for that terrible alignment. Bet no one else pulls it off against them this season

 

[VolGirl81]

At this point, i am wondering if we should sit him in the 2nd quarter.

This. Ewers is out for Texas, got hurt.

 

[NO SIR EEE]

People mad that we're running the score up in the 1st quarter.

People are soft

 

[GhostVol]

Why the onside

OK, FL, AL, & GA

 

[ENGRVOL]

I know we scored 35 in 2000 against arky in the first quarter. Is that the record?

 

[DC_Vol]

Sampson

 

[ButchPlz]

Could that have been the kicker’s decision?

Jordan Rodgers was explaining it was an automatic read based on the front line. Our kickers in high school were instructed to do the same thing if there was a big whole in the front line like they had.

 

[Tenacjim]

McCoy has been impressive returning punts IMO. His ability to read the coverage and change directions isn’t common.

That’s Squirrel White returning punts and he’s always been that way.

 

[BernardKingGOAT]

I get it. I don't like it, but I get it.

It's basically the same mindset when there's an uncovered guy on the punt team. The punter automatically tosses it out there

 

[BigOrangeD]

Their defense is going to be dragging by half time.

 

[vader]

Oh he is so gonna try to kill OK.

That was a message.

I hope he does

 

[Spawn]

Come on boys. Let's get 37 in the first quarter

 

[Proud Army Wife]

Why the onside

I think Heupel just wanted to “practice” it in a game, cause why the hell not?

 

[volbound1700]

This. Ewers is out for Texas, got hurt.

Oh wow, missed that!

 

[volmanbill]

GIVE HIM 6!

 

[Nerwen Aldarion]

apparently they can introduce shortened quarters if both head coaches agree

I’m just not sure Huepel is nice enough to do it LOL

 

[Tenacjim]

I know we scored 35 in 2000 against arky in the first quarter. Is that the record?

37 now…

 

[FlVols]

TD !! Give us 37

 

[BigOrangeD]

Touchdown Tennessee!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Creeker]

What’s our points in a quarter record lol

 

[molsen81]

Field goal leaves a bad taste in my mouth

Coach Josh Heupel

 

[crawdaddyjc]

sampson with 3!!!


37-0 at the end of 1. wow.

 

[VOL RN]

Just end the quarter bro

 

[Orange931]

Holy sh*t. Has anybody ever scored 37 in one quarter?

 

[zeppelin128]

Exactly. Kent St could start taking people’s knees or ankles

This was my first thought.
