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

[BiggsVolFan]

Disagree.

Several teams in the 12 we could beat at Neyland.

Not if we played like this ...

 

[brubaker]

I say just throw hail mary's at this point and hope for the best.. this is worse than South Carolina game 2 years ago. Worse than the Georgia State debacle under Pruitt.

 

[Carl Pickens]

Coke looked lethargic all season

Coke?

 

[VOLINVONORE]

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

Too late to be conservative

 

[Flipdaddy]

Odds nico transfers?

Hey honestly….hes not as talented as I had hoped.

 

[NEO]

At least make it a good tantrum

Am I wrong? Was this a well coached game? Do you see anything creative?

 

[Chad Powers]

Nico just capitulated...

Totally capitulated. I’m shocked. This is NOT a trait you want to see from your QB1.

 

[VolCalls]

So what? How do supposed ut fans take such joy in ut losing and other fans being wrong? The "i told you so" gloating about a ut loss is one of the dumbest things that happens on this board. I'll never understand the enjoyment in it

Just saying I tried to tell you. It must be miserable running your mouth all week about how superior we are and not being able to back it up.

[TheFlash1971]

Need to recruit top classes regularly to play with programs that recruit at elite levels AND hit the portal hard every year.

Yep or else just except 3-6th best team in conference every year. We’re getting absolutely embarrassed. If I hear CH say we didn’t play well I’ll puke. No you got out coached in every facet of the game. Against elite defenses this offense is trash unless you have 3-4 elite recievers which we don’t.

 

[Mid Tenn Vol]

None. Huepel has NEVER fired anyone in this entire career.

He needs to start tonight

 

[MurphyVol]

When you get $8 million without doing anything it’s deserved.

We may just break 100 yards passing before this thing is over

 

[87&91ALUM]

Until teams and universities get together and toss SEC and NCAA we are all at the whim of ESPN and big money. We know the officials are paid off.

 

[Orange931]

Rick and Tony V are gonna have to ease the pain.

 

[GAVol]

When you have nobody downfield to throw to because of no separation then it is what it is.

Don’t know why people aren’t understanding this

 

[UT Challenger]

I’ve tried my best to stay positive y’all but our oline is trash

It's not been very good all season.

 

[vavolfan6]

You talk $hit...better be prepared to eat $hit.....

Yeah. F*** all the fans who supported their team and went out on a limb and defended their team when OSU fans and others were talking s*** about them.

 

[Vawlk Tuah]

They earned the right to chant whatever they want ... Just not against Michigan .

Yep

 

[Undercs]

10 wins and a playoff appearance is not something I expected this year.

Good season boys.

easy schedule, beaten by the real teams on the schedule. file this season into a season like 12 -13 other teams that won 10 games.

 

[Allvols98]

Gonna say it.

It's not like heupel just got here. There are weaknesses on the roster that's on him.

 

[Other_Guy]

How dare they have fun and enjoy being a fan?

I'll tell you a secret - none of that affected the final score

Who said I thought it did? I'm not on the team. I'm a part of the fanbase. So I get to deal with repercussions of us looking like fools thinking Tenn was really good.

 

[Fatdad32]

Just absolutely suck this game

 

[VOLINVONORE]

If you are blaming this on refs you are just naive to what the game is about. We are getting beat in all 3 phases of the game. PERIOD

Sad but true

 

[The Original Fade]

Round 1 all blowouts. Guess home field matters?

 

[Volbrando]

If changes aren’t made I don’t think we make the playoffs next year. We were lucky to win a few this year. Florida and Bama are away and we can’t play away games for some reason
