The Official #9 Tennessee @ #8 Ohio State Game Thread, 8:00 PM ET, ABC/ESPN

[Purplehaze26]

O Line and DB Coaches are overdue.

Won't happen
Vols forever 9-3 or 10-2 max

 

[EastTNVol6240]

If we would just pay/poach players for 23 million we could be just as good. **** ohio

We have the same opportunity to do it as they do. If we aren’t shame on our staff

 

[Rocky-Top 10EC]

Why call a fair catch at the 2?

 

[onevol74]

We are lucky to have Heupel but he needs to spend the offseason with a business mindset and make some changes to the staff that “friends”…..

When has Heupel won a night game on the road against a good team? He is a 10-2, 9-3 coach.

 

[Anti-shunshinepumper]

We look like we don't even belong in the CFP man. So hard to watch.

I'm not trying to just be a nega-vol when I say I am embarrassed. This game homestly hurts my pride in Tennessee

 

[THEONLYTENISEE]

We gotta be a little conservative so Nico doesn’t lose the game.

I think GMAC has the better career when it’s said and done. Too much pressure put on Nico.

 

[joevols89]

Play them what the heck we have to lose. But whatever just get drubbed 65-10

They are playing.

 

[Vol4lif3]

100% this.
I’m proud of the Vols and the fans who made the trip.
10-2 regular season and playoffs.
I hope Oregon runs OSU out of the stadium

They will osu fans are so ignorant

 

[GAV4L]

Neither of those teams beats Florida or Bama and maybe not Oklahoma, but ok

Florida sucks those teams could beat them

 

[volfan1631]

At least we know what it's like to go to the playoff's. We sucked but damn it was a great feeling before the game started.

 

[Gandalf]

Well, we sure did pick a fine time to sh** the bed.

 

[OrangeInKy]

We didn't compete very well against Georgia either.

Alabama is a sinking ship now.

17-17 at half. It sure Is say they didn't compete. Got away the 4th quarter.

 

[Coy53175]

We should hire someone from our fan base. Hell, all the smart ass wizards on this Forum it should not be hard. Sitting on the couch, stroking a keyboard criticizing everyone on the team should get you the job. You either bleed orange or you don’t. GBO till the end of time!!!!!

 

[Chad F]

Behahaha! Now, an illegal substitution?!

Undisciplined. Unprepared. Unworthy of this spotlight.

As many said this week - It is a privilege to play in this stage. However, it is an embarrassment to go out and perform this badly.

Our program is better than the Pruitt, Butch, and Dooley years, but we still a long, long way from being a heavyweight. Hate to say it, but this season had a favorable schedule. Next year we’re on the road at Bummer and Florida. And we ain’t beating Georgia anywhere until something big changes.

Same old Tennessee: let’s help the opponent get “right.” Ryan Day should thank us.

 

[landscapingvol]

I feel sorry for anyone that spent the money and took the time to go watch this performance. Nico and the rest of the team should pool together some of their NIL money and buy each fan that travelled a Food City gift card

 

[Other_Guy]

IDK what we're supposed to do on O with all these injuries. D couldn't hold them to FG's. Not our day.

You think it's just "not our day"???

 

[patrick]

Recruiting has to be better apparently. How do we compete against Alabama and UGA but get absolutely destroyed against OSU.

OSU has one of the best rosters in the country - probably better than GA.

 

[Clad in Big Orange]

Vol Twitter with the stupid Neyland north, plant the flag, throw the goalposts in the river... I'm more annoyed at the fans than the team. Haven't won anything in over 20 years yet no one talks more crap than we do.

Yeah there was way too much brashness leading up to this game. I don’t subscribe to that because it will eventually come back on you ten fold.

 

[orangerush]

throw the ball vertically if you want to actually score

 

[ForeverfaithfulVOL]

Well I’m rooting for Arizona state and cam skatteboo now

 

[wmcovol]

Not sure why coach is drawing up plays across the middle? TE, Matthews, heck send any body slanting across. It's been wide open all night.

Nothing has been “open all night”. Absolutely nothing

 

[Purplehaze26]

OSU will be favored in every game they play in this thing. No excuse to get embarrassed like this but they are the most talented team in the country.

Won't be favorite against Oregon

 

[Volfan8282]

We are lucky to have Heupel but he needs to spend the offseason with a business mindset and make some changes to the staff that “friends”…..

Won’t happen

 

[VOLINVONORE]

Disagree.

Several teams in the 12 we could beat at Neyland.

We have not played well enough to get to host a playoff game

 

[Fatdad32]

2 of our best 3 receivers out
#1 RB out
And Ohio State is legit


Just son of a
