We play Bama...Georgia and Kentucky...could easily and probably lose all 3. That's the vibe.

Tennessee will hang 50 on the overrated Mildcats

 

[FranklinVFL]

Really wish we’d pick it off. I don’t want to see them score again

Your wish…

 

[FranklinVFL]

I have no problem with the end of this game. We win...enough

I have zero issues with any aspect of that game. Zero.

Hate we gave up those garbage yards at the end but at least the int kept them off the board to KINDA offset the freebie score donated to them by the refs. Somebody in the booth must have buzzed down and had the guy throw the flag.

That's why they're called "garbage yards." Looks good on the box score, but if you look at the play-by-play, doesn't mean much.

 

[FranklinVFL]

A little disappointed with the offense guys. We had to punt twice today. Hope we can turn that around.

I was getting ready to ask how many punts today.

we should be embarrassed that we had to punt twice. Totally unacceptable.

GBO!!!

 

[Other_Guy]

Very impressed and a little surprised at the success at the run game on both sides of the ball. Love that Heupel is a balanced coach and the results are there as well.

 

[FranklinVFL]

Big opportunity next week added into the game:

Clemson plays FSU
USC plays Utah

If Tennessee should win they could be T5

It we win vs Bama, we are top 4 no matter what else happens.

WTH. We can beat all 3!

I have zero issues with any aspect of that game. Zero.

That was my response as well. We outplayed them in every stinking category including COACHING! And, in honor of Coach Fulmer, we basically end the game with an 8:47 drive and kick a field goal to seal the dominant win!

Last road win that was this much fun was _______________________ ???

 

[USMC-TNVOL]

FunnyMaine gotta give us some love tomorrow

SEC Shorts Monday hopefully will be great

They already took care of LSU with the last one with the miracles department. lol

They are all beatable and I think we will do it! Go Vols!

I'm into the bourbon early, so with this, I'm out. Love y'all and #GBO!

 

[FranklinVFL]

But he’s proven himself as a head coach so it’ll be looked at different.

Some people just have to have something to complain about.

Huepel is not looking at UT as a stepping stone to get back to his alma mater. Huepel has experienced our fans and our resources. If he continues on this trajectory to finish the year, he will be paid handsomely and be a top 3 coach in the SEC in salary.

He obviously has a great relationship with Danny White to trust him enough to accept the train wreck we were at that time. And he has the players, coaches, admin and fans all on his side now.

And OU is a lesser job that UT. Especially after Venables gets done with it.

 

[Matt2496]

Btw, Vanderbilt is up 10-3 on ole miss.

 

[FranklinVFL]

And we’ll match anything OU could pay. Frost and Nebraska is a good lesson that sometimes you can never go home again. Plus Stoops is still involved over there and that’s where the rub is between Hype and OU.

Huepel getting paid at end of this year unless the wheels totally fall off. If we finish 10-2 and go to sugar bowl, man will be top 3 in salary after Saban and Smart.

 

[FranklinVFL]

Btw, Vanderbilt is up 10-3 on ole miss.

13-3

 

[LadyVolette]

Btw, Vanderbilt is up 10-3 on ole miss.

Well Go Vandy I kind of half-heartedly cheer for them if they aren’t playing my Vols lol

 

[Tennbleedsorange]

The firest 5 minutes of the game....I have never heard rocky top so loud and clear at an opposing stadium. At death valley! Nice job representing Vol fans!

 

[TheVolsFrog]

They already took care of LSU with the last one with the miracles department. lol

There would be no miracles to be had this time. The mighty LSU struck out haha

 

[FranklinVFL]

I don’t smoke cigars but I think maybe I should buy one for next Saturday

Ditto. Hate them, but damn I’ll smoke it.

 

[vol24/7/365]

Anyone know why Heup has a constant cough? I’ve never noticed in past games when the camera is on him.

I think he is just sick or allergies. Early in the game he blew snot out of his nose

 

[FranklinVFL]

With the offense that we have…any game is winnable. We just need a competent defense.

but that offenses. Wow.
