It's amazing how many of us are just happy to blow out the Indiana states but then be upset when we see a breakdown of the teams we have beat and lost to.
Winning doesn't cover up wall the problems, yall can choose to look at it like that but at this pace, teams with even talent will do to us what they've been doing...
Why the hell shouldn't we have been up more?

Indiana state should have been outmatched up front at every position both sides of the ball... SHOULD HAVE BEEN...

It's incredible. I didn't see anything that made me feel good today besides the usual beast-mode plays of Kelly and Callaway.

The real season starts this week. We'll see exactly where we are.

Pro Tip:

Listen to 104.5 instead of that garbage station.

102.5 has more credible analysis, IMO. Former GM Floyd Reese and Former Pro Bowl WR Derek Mason are usually a good source of information. I don't always agree with all the show hosts but for the most part they are pretty fair. Jared Stillman is an idiot and the worst one though.

The preseason is over. Big boy ball starts this week.

C'mon, get serious. JG is not near ready. QD is much further along. Go back to Dobbs first couple of years of starting in your minds and stop acting like QD is trash. He clearly gives the team their best chance to win. He just has to keep working to get better. JG needs to prepare for next man up.

It's not about the O. It's about the D. We appear to be in trouble if genius Shoop doesn't start taking some football smart pills. His schemes stink and his use of inadequate players is worse. Play the talent, not the experienced guys that can't get it done. The opposing OC's know what you have with the inadequate experienced guys and will exploit them. There's video on every play in every game they've played. They know when you are scheming around trouble spots.

We will learn a lot about this team after next Saturday. Played two gimmicky offenses the first two games and haven't looked great. Offense has been pretty vanilla and whoever the QB is needs to take a deep breath and settle down. Personnel decisions are still maddening.

Yeah they don't count drops right? The Palmer catch got called and incompletion as well.

Two passes he got hit from immediate pressure.

No turnovers though.... So he didn't hurt the team right?

Here is a perfect example of your slant. Dormady had 4 dropped passes in the first half last game, one which hit Byrd in the chest. Your response to a post last week about that was "if he hit him in stride it was a td". That may be correct, but it doesn't change the fact that it was a ball that should have been caught.

Floyd is good. I felt Mason is still bitter at the Titans.

Love the disparity of opinions on what people see. Look JG has a ridiculously live arm and is a smooth athlete (doesn't appear to be near the runner BB wants to make him out to be though). But unfortunately real football is not played on an Xbox so those two attributes alone don't make a QB successful. JG looks uncomfortable and unsure right now. He certainly doesn't have command of the offense yet. You can definitely see why the coaches feel like Dormandy gives UT the best chance to win games right now. If JG develops the rest of his game in the future he has elite arm talent. Just has a lot of other tools that need to be developed.

People see the score 42-7 and don't understand how anyone could dissect the win. It was the Indiana State Sycamores, they're a joke. We weren't close to being dominant up front on either side of the ball and Dormady looked like doo doo. The defense as a whole has looked like garbage the first two weeks. This team just doesn't look good.
