However, the quality of the product we put on the field now is substandard and everyone around us is getting better. |

| With Tradition, Comes Responsibility.
Tennessee's defense played with what looked like no pride at times, which is very sad to see. |

| I mean does anyone really think we have a chance to go to Gainesville and win. I mean it's possible but it shouldn't happen. We don't have the COACHING to beat Meyer. |

I listen to Dave Hooker say they look impressive in practice. I hear him say that the d-line looks good and that Mapu and Bolden look like they have taken that next step. And then suddenly it's all ruined in one 4 hour stretch. Just ruined.
I have defended Fulmer but I'm done. Tennessee is a ship that has been sinking since the 2001 SEC championship game. We aren't an elite team anymore.
Fire Fulmer! | I feel your pain bro. All that anticipation and optimism building up over 8 months dashed in 4 hours. Its tough... very hard to swallow. Time will tell if Cal is really that good, or if we are really that bad.
One thing is for sure, our D-line sucks, again. Another truth is that the VOLS have been sliding downhill since 2001. I won't write the season off yet, but I have to admit my optimism if waning quickly. |
