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

[lilesrt]

We’ve got them right where we want them. Epic comeback in the making. Everyone relax.

 

[BigOrangeD]

Our defense is going to have to make a play to get us back in this thing.

 

[Doberman]

Delay of game on a punt???

In your own end zone

 

[BruiserVol]

Why the #### do we have the backup running back in down 14-0?????

Well my guess is the rumors of Sampson and the OL having the flu recently were not just rumors.

 

[etsuvol13]

If you doubt Heupel after what he's pulled off in 4yrs then you are clueless. It's that simple

I think it’s worth a look. We SUCK away from neyland and you have to win away to win a championship. Just facts

 

[dieseldaddy]

I regret nothing

 

[DEFENDTHISHOUSE]

The fanbase did their part. Now do yours Vols.

 

[OrangeInKy]

Maybe. But Vols look completely unprepared. Heupel should've never deferred.

The defense was about to get off the field , I stead ODU goes down field for 7. Huge momentum swing. At worst I think it's 7-0 OSU if that didn't happen. Even if we didn't get points on the drive had the facemask not happened, would have had them starting further back. Just don't know.

 

[EastTNVol6240]

There’s always baseball

 

[90 Vol]

Please tell me how they can crack Nicos helmet and not be called targeting

It was targeting.

 

[BADGER_VOL]

We need a TO bad

 

[Orangecrush#27]

What???? Are you okay with this bs? Shut up

Lord, go change ur pad.

 

[FranklinVFL]

I hate vol fans. Y’all talk so much **** and as soon as we get in a bad position you start talking **** about ur own team. Be critical but don’t be a moron

One of the reasons I do not talk **** before a game.

 

[The Original Fade]

I’ve always thought this was a terrible draw for Tennessee. The way OSU’s regular season ended you had to know they wanted to come out with something to prove. Combine that with our inability to show up on the road for the first 2 quarters and this has blowout written all over it

 

[Proud Army Wife]

Given that the offensive line were all running around without shirts in the pregame, I think it’s safe to assume that the flu thing wasn’t true.

I thought that was the DL, but if not then I have no words for this. They’re getting absolutely dominated worse than anything I’ve seen this season.

 

[C-south]

I hate vol fans. Y’all talk so much **** and as soon as we get in a bad position you start talking **** about ur own team. Be critical but don’t be a moron

Deep down most saw this coming but fans are gonna be hopeful.

 

[VolsSportsFan]

Given that the offensive line were all running around without shirts in the pregame, I think it’s safe to assume that the flu thing wasn’t true.

Maybe their fevers were so high they’re insane?

 

[joevols89]

Everyone has their best wuarter against us.

Well they’re running wide open in our secondary and qb has time to throw. So it’s more execution and scheme on our end imo.

 

[VOLifornia]

It ain't over til it's over. Cmon Vols...wake up and get in the game..

I feel the fans are awake, it’s those playing the game that aren’t unfortunately.

 

[BleedOrange81]

Oline is embarrassing..

 

[fossilfiction]

The defense is not trash. They can wae up.

 

[joevol33]

Come on defense

 

[GetEmVols]

Wow we definitely were not ready for this.

 

[hUTch2002]

People got hyped because they looked like crap against Michigan. But the reality is we suck on the road and they have a Georgia level talent advantage. We couldn’t afford the defense not to show up. Our path to winning was a low scoring game.

I hate what you’re saying but it’s accurate.
