This loss falls at the feet of Tim Banks.

[NeverWe'llSever]

The team was completely unprepared in the first half on defense. Down 26-7 at the half and never could recover.

 

[mpfvol]

The entire team looked lost

Lack of QB play didn't help either

 

[perico]

The offensive playcalling wasn’t much better. We wasted time and handing the ball off when we needed to open it up with the wasted time outs was just killing us.

 

[loosecannon]

We looked pathetic on both sides of the ball. I don’t think it was just the defense. We got drilled on the things we could control. We lost composure. Our staff lost composure. Heupel was pathetic.

 

[Clad in Big Orange]

Lots of blame to go around. All falls squarely at the HC and offensive guru. He has to fix this or it’s going to be a long season.

 

[obxvol]

That was embarrassing.

How do you win scoring only 16 points?

 

[sportsnut624]

If Martinez is employed at the end of the year by the University of Tennessee I want the program shut down because it’s obvious then that we don’t really care.

They hated him in Athens, we hated him both times in Knoxville.

I don’t discount this, however, the defensive performance caused us to abandon our game plan.

Milton played well enough. 290 yards through the air. Ints are going to happen and he had 1.

He wasn’t missing passes in the first half and ended up 20/34 287 yds. Got hosed on at least 2 no calls on PIs, one of which would’ve been 6.

Milton is no Hooker, but he didn’t cost us the game tonight.

 

[MurphyVol]

Josh is the HC. He hired Banks, Martinez and made Milton his hand picked qb

 

[vavolfan6]

This game is 100% on defense. Offense couldn't touch the ball since the defense got off the field. Anyone mad at the offense for not climbing out if a 20 point hole on the road is delusional.

 

[VolCalls]

I thought Milton was solid other than the run on the 2pt try when he didn’t take a straight line to the pylon. The defense is terrible and the play calling very suspect. I long for the days of David Cutcliffe & John Chavis.

You misspelled Josh Heupel.

 

[NomadVol]

They hated him in Athens, we hated him both times in Knoxville.

The DBs have not even gotten ok. Not better heck, may have regressed

 

[CPVOL]

If Heupel stands at a podium and talks coach speak then that’s the wrong move.
And if nothing changes by Monday, then he’s OK with the loss & this level of suck is no big deal

 

[tennesseepride84]

as much as I love hype. This was a coaching loss as a whole, team look undisciplined and under prepared, oh and not to mention soft.

I’ve been trying to tell y’all he’s awful forever now I wish I actually was wrong

 

[Other_Guy]

I'm 1000% done with Tim Banks. Gave him 1 more shot. Dude sucks when it really matters.

 

[Jaxon_Vol2017]

Our whole team sucks

 

[Ty4Vols]

What falls at the feet is a Milton 4th down pass

 

[RockyTop140]

Heupel embarrassed himself with that timeout at the end there. Your team looked unprepared and you got outcoached. Take the loss with class and get to work this week.

 

[NomadVol]

The DBs started off bad and then the defense had to change due to the trash that was the DBs.
Hadden throwing a shoulder instead of wrapping up REPEATEDLY is trash play. I am beyond disgusted
