That was a close one.

Only six points in the second half????? Something‘s gotta change ASAP

 

[OrangeTsar]

+1 if that's a Hubert H Humphrey reference.

No, sorry. Don’t know that one

4th string better get their act together

Disappointed in our walk ons

Leave the 4th string alone. They pulled the QB too soon

Hope GA looks like they did tonite when TN comes to town. Would beat them by Fiddy.

Be sure to tell your Alabama and Georgia friends that with that injury to Ewers Tennessee is clearly the best team in the s e c

 

[knoxchief]

Well the VOLS just barely squeaked by. But a win is a win. GO VOLS!

If only their backup wasn’t named Manning, I’d go with this.

One game at a time, stay focused and the players don’t need to listen to the noise. Anybody can lose that doesn’t stay on focus. Don’t fall in the traps just stay on the mission! GBO!

It's called trolling. They'll be livid. Who cares if you believe it lol

That and it doesn’t matter how fans talk. It won’t make any difference in the outcome of a game.

I feel like I have to say it but I don’t want to make too big of deal about it so I’m saying it here. Merklinger looks surprisingly bad. I know he’s a true freshman and all that but he’s got a long way to go.

It's inexplicable that Dawgs play so poorly against Kats.

 

[Volfan1000]

Lambert and Saban say Thanks for the donation to our athletic department as the Tennessee roster nibbles during the course of this blowout.

We will never see another team as TERRIBLE as Kent State invade Neyland Stadium.

 

[87&91ALUM]

The play with freshmen is over. Better put your big boy pants on the rest of the way. Hope the lineman who left the game last night is ok.

 

[sami]

I hate these kinds of games, when the only two goals are to empty the bench in the second half and NO INJURIES.

Did I mention no injuries?

Mission accomplished.

PFF Grades: Tennessee vs. Kent State | Rocky Top Insider

See the PFF grades for Tennessee football's week three matchup against Kent State on Saturday night at Neyland Stadium.

www.rockytopinsider.com

O: the quarterbacks, Gaston Moore 93. with Tennessee’s best grade but Nico 44.8 had the worst grade. Dylan Sampson 82.4 and DeSean Bishop 87.1 were incredibly efficient running the ball while Peyton Lewis 70.6 also had a really nice day.

D Josephs 89.1 graded out one of the Vols’ top defenders. Sophomores Arion Carter and Jeremiah Telander were two of the top six graded defenders while freshman Edwin Spillman was not far behind in his career debut.

Stoops must be getting raked over the coals for punting. You can still get a stop there if you go for it and don't get the 1st, but he cut his chances of winning in half by giving up the ball. Classic playing not to lose type of move. I can't imagine he even makes it out of this season, but there's no way he's there in '25.

Idk. Kentucky is probably tickled to have that moral victory. But yeah he pissed that game away.
