Good game for Coach Jones. There was a lot of ugly plays but overall the team played very well. Next week is going to the big challenge. Go Big Orange!!!

241 yards on the ground,they should grow from week 2 to week 3 ? right ? right ?

We need clock eating TD drives next week. And three and outs. No more big runs and blocked kicks on special teams.

I also think another 7 turnovers by OR would help.

 

[firestorm]

SC beating GA would be wonderful.

And you wouldn't dog the Dawgs if they produced another dog performance.

52-20 now where are all the crazy people that said this would be close?

It could have been. That team had a lot of talent that made a lot of mistakes.

 

[MyBloodRunnethOrange]

Totally dominated the second half. It's been a while.

Wanted another score but that was class the way Butch ended it. He let WKU keep a little if they could man up and stuff those last runs at the goal line.

he should have run the score up,like they do in the SEC

Palardy doing his thing.



We are getting there.

...and the roughing the passer call was a pansy, BS call.

Virginia vs Oregon maybe we will get some insight here

 

[HuntlandVolinColo]

This would have been a true trap game if KY would have somehow beaten them. I'm wondering now how KY stayed with WKY so long.

lost faith in this program, this coach and this team way to fast today. You all should feel humiliated for abandoning this team today. Yes, Justin Worley struggled in the first half. Yes, the defense still has major issues. These aren't problems that can be overcome all at once. It will take years of recruitment and coaching to change both the talent and the mindset of the plyayers in this program and only then will our problems be resolved. But today, this team was challenged in the first half, they went into the locker room at half time, they adjusted, they adapted and they overcame that challenge.

I don't think our team would have been able to adjust had Derek Dooley been coaching this team. The fact that we can overcome a little adversity in the second half of football is an extraordinarily positive change for this program. Our team exposed some weaknesses today but we should all be proud that they were able to respond and get the w.

Go Vols.

Next week is "doomsday at the Duck's Pond". Their QB just ran up the middle for a score on VA....8-0 Ducks. Plus they did a fake FG attempt for 2.

Except for a few gashing runs when the D got tired.

 

[checkerboards09]

It could have been. That team had a lot of talent that made a lot of mistakes.

You sure we just aren't that much better and our D played lights out like they're capable?

87k attendance today?

This would have been a true trap game if KY would have somehow beaten them. I'm wondering now how KY stayed with WKY so long.

Could you say Kentucky is another Vandy kind of team?

 

[Volgrad98]

I'm going to enjoy today. Definitely a big difference in attitude and performance between this year and last year.

 

[WillisWG]

B3 ? you mean 63 ? and big Dan didn't earn it today

[Vegas_Ferguson]

Great win.

Was #27 Randolph the leading receiver for WKY?

 

[VolsZealot]

it wasnt the best but WKU is much better than AP .. we got turnovers when we needed them for the most part. worely isnt the best QB thats for certain but I dont think anyone expected him to be either.
