Huh?

That happened..... dips*** on ESPN had to bring it up for no good reason whatsoever

TN didn't play SC today but he just had to bring it up because KY (jelly) couldn't upset TN tonight

Oh. Must have missed that

Second half was excellent.

 

[volmanNC]

I would like to have Kentucky's punter and kicker!

 

[nomads-11]

Have to say tonight’s struggles were on the WRs. They catch those balls and this game is a route.

Way to early grades:
QB: B+
WRs: D
Bru: A
TEs: B+
RB: A
OL: B
DL: B
LBs: B
CBs: B-
S: A
PK: F-

WR - F, QB -A-, OL - D

Iowa State lost
Clemson lost
Texas A&M lost

Tennessee won.

Our chances of making the playoffs have went up substantially after tonight.

Maybe so .... but the Vanderbilt game looks like a toss-up right now.

 

[mpfvol]

Surely next week will be easy. Right?

Sadly no this offense has went full struggle

Ms st is a joke but carry on with your scared af narrative

Cool. Holler at me when we're in another second half slug fest with another inferior opponent. Not like we've had 3 or 4 of those this year. Not like we lost one of those too.

Clown comment.

No it does not.

 

[GUNTERSVOL]

Think about it. IF IF IF 4 of those balls that hit receivers in the hands had been caught , Nico would have had in excess of 400 yards close to 85% completion rate.

 

[BowlBrother85]

No it does not.

You don't think so? I dunno. Hope you're right, though.

Gonna have to play a very clean game in Nashville or they will win

 

[firestorm]

It feels great to be a Vols football fan.

Kentucky football fans very happy that College Basketball will be starting soon.

We definitely still have several things that need to be improved on offense. However, we did put up almost 500 yards of offense. I’m not sure how that classifies as not showing improvement. It appears to me the biggest issues we have been seeing offensively occur once we get in scoring range. It’s frustrating that we struggle to finish drives. It seems like we alternate the source of the issues. Either Nico misses wide open receivers, he throws perfect passes that get dropped, someone fumbles, or we have a drive killing penalty. I guess it is somewhat promising that it’s not just the same issue over and over.

 

[GhostVol]

Oh. Must have missed that

No worries..... It's just the no context, why would you bring up the 63 point game AT Scar?

There y'are ESPN hates TN

Dylan Sampson doing the "Thriller" dance after the score

Will Brooks gets ALL the props

 

[Volfan1000]

Solid performance by everyone except the special teams unit which left 9 points on the field and that will come back to bite Tennessee in the ass if we have a close game on down the road.

Ekeler should try Turbyville as the field goal kicker since Gilbert looks like he has lost confidence in himself.

I’m hoping they have something extra in the tank for Vandy.
Need to keep them in their place.

 

[adam.vol]

I want to know what happened to Vandergriff. The more I see the replay, the more I think he just quit. I didn’t see anything that looked like it could have caused an injury on the play.

That being said, the Titans made Will Levi’s look much better than he was, by drafting him as early as they did. With Vandergriff starting 1-6 in the SEC, I’d be shocked to see Kentucky get another decent QB transfer.

Once a kicker get the yips this bad, best to open the position up for tryouts. This is the 2nd week in the road he has missed makeable field goals. I dont won't him to be what causes the Vols to lose the Vandy game.

 

[mpfvol]

I do feel a bit worried about next week not gonna lie .. that miss state offense isn’t to shabby

This TN Defense is legit and a minis

 

[Orangeslide]

We will be the 745 pm game next Saturday

 

[adam.vol]

Now, if only Kiffin would beat Kirby in Oxford next week.

That does not help us one iota. If we lose to a 2 loss Georgia and 2 loss Ole Miss has a win over them, that’s puts two teams ahead of us.

We need Ole Miss to scare Georgia good and bruise them badly, but we still need Georgia to win, regardless of our outcome against Georgia.

 

[PEPPERJAX]

You don't think so? I dunno. Hope you're right, though.

I have seen this story so many times by the time UT plays Vandy. UT’s depth is too much and the golden sailors fold. Diego Pavement probably gets knocked out before halftime.

UTEP

it could be Georgia. Never know. Ball takes funny bounces at times. It is much more fun going into every game knowing you have a chance just playing to the capabilities. Where as a few years ago. Ya know ?
