    Just to clear up the dissatisfaction...

    No dogs. No Al Wilson personality on the team. Hate to generalize but very Gen-Z team. That seems to reflect Milton to a tee. For all that though, remember, Josh Dobbs willed this team to 8-wins. This team will win 8 without that kind of performer at any position. And we won 11 last year...

    So we hung 59 on Uconn

    It took JCrompton 5.5 years for the lights to come on (and I really like his takes on that podcast these days). A switch flipped in that locker room at halftime of the A&M game because he figured out that he can't passively run a yard short of the sticks for a first down on an offside flag...

    Huge road win vs KY

    It's hard to win on the road in the SEC. The 2023 Vols needed to learn how to do it. I know many will say it was KY but they came out with a great game plan and gave us their best game. We needed this to have a chance against MO. If we can win that - what a game in Neyland against GA. GBO!!!

    These are our 2023 Vols

    Can't believe I didn't write it the bottom of the OP!

    These are our 2023 Vols

    I really like Joe Milton, but I also know he hasn't found consistency or that killer, competitive instinct. I think Dobbs, Tee, Manning, Ainge, Clausen and maybe even Bray all make the Castles throw AND the Warren throw. Would have completely changed the complexion of the game. And even...

    These are our 2023 Vols

    1. This is our team this year. We can beat anyone in the country for a fraction of the game - sometimes a considerable fraction. But we haven't played a complete 60-minutes of football all year. Bless 'em, I still love this team. Let's hope we can be what we are and beat KY and MO on the...

    Consistently inconsisent on offense. It's been this way all year. Hopefully defense remains consistently good.

    Not trying to get the first down on the Offsides is an eye-opener for me. Leadership is getting that yard; not calling a POM after Austin Peay.

    It's on the coaches for not taking the points. But got to make a play.

    Let's keep calm. But running out of bounds on the free play is really, really bad.

    End of first half penalty..

    A flag for celebration is flat fun police and should stop. No one should be penalized for doing the Icky Shuffle or the Electric Slide after a TD. If you start teabagging the defender, I have a lot more sympathy for the flag. Easy to enforce and regulate. Just takes common sense. Sadly....

    Locker Room Issues?

    You have to look at a POM this early in the season, after an APSU game. Want Milton to succeed so much, I really do. Feels like a POM is trying to establish leadership that he is not exuding in practice or during big games. Your spider-sense has to be tingling with a players only meeting...

    Sampson, Mincey, Slaughter

    I see the player only meeting in a whole new light. This team has regressed so far from the Virginia game. I suspect there are problems behind the scenes. No idea what but a POM after Austin Peay, game 2?? We tried to spin it as leadership, and I wanted to believe that, but I've never heard...

    Hidden Keys: Florida Gators

    Dont'e Thornton makes a play first drive. Team will build momentum from it on both sides of the ball.
