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

How we feeling about Desmond referring to our fans as "The Creamsicle Mafia"?

If anybody said anything remotely associated with a color about him, he’d be offended.
I ain’t watching that trash show for four hours, partially because I can’t stand the way he and mcafee act and partially because I have no desire to listen to the buckeye love-fest

Which is very inane because very high winning percentage. Who is going to replace him if he was fired?
It’s unlikely that Nick Saban is going to end retirement because he’s satisfied with his legacy as a Chess King in College Football.

Day has mental issues and that prolly has taken a big toll on him the past few years. He’s an upgraded version of James Franklin.

Day and OSU feels like ticking time bomb.

If Tennessee does defeat Ohio State it’s not a true upset because it’s a coin flip game even though Ohio State is slightly favored.

If K Pili was playing I would predict a win. Now I am not so sure

Seems like a term of endearment to me. Fairly apt too.

Saban just said the loss of Pili caused us to be much simpler / basic in our scheme.

GBO!!

Gonna be a good one boys and girls! We’ve all been waiting for this!

 

[GAVol21]

Herbie just said 70/30 Orange at game day....

 

[CPVOL]

If the Waffle House story is true, that person just became a legend and don’t even know it

 

[Vol8188]

Really excited to see if our dline dominates and if we outnumber their fans at home or at least make it close enough to negate home field

As always . . . This game comes down to line play and QB play.

Sampson will get his . . . But he had 101 yards rushing on 19 carries with a long run of 27 yards and a TD against UGA. But what do we remember from that game? No pressure at all on Beck / we got picked apart . . . And lost.

Nico was 20-33 for 167 and no TDs (and no interceptions).

Bottom line. If we don’t get pressure on Beck . . . And if Nico plays a pedestrian game . . . UT cannot win. And Nico won’t play well if their defense sacks him / is all over him.

Our dline has to pressure Howard and sack Howard. OSU WRs are MUCH better than what we have seen.

You forgot turn overs in your first sentence

Not sure who this person is, but I bet we shared some cheap beer at the Lap and heard a great band at the Library together back in the day. Best sign ever.

They still crying about the cleats lol

 

[YankeeVol]

Getting ready to head to Columbus (I'm staying 45 min away)

 

[VOLtaism]

If the staff turns Nico loose on the run this could be like the Iowa game. They have protected him all year, now unleash him. This would open up the lanes for Samson and they would not need to throw the ball as much in the cold weather.

 

[firestorm]

Time to see if Kenny can make a field goal on College Gameday.

 

[CPVOL]

That guest kicker on Gameday just put the stink on us. Wtf is he doing

 

[hndog609]

They still thing about the cleats lol

It's what fans do. I'll also say I don't think any of the highlights shown made me think of a cleat advantage. One OSt fumble was their QB donking a pitch off the rb's helmet. That's not cleats.

 

[TrumpedUpVol]

HILARIOUSLY bad kicks.

 

[firestorm]

Holy Hell this guy is the worst we’ve ever seen.
