Pruitt not attempting a FG was awful. Clock management was ****ing terrible on the last drive.

I'm sorry but JG isn't the guy. He's tough but has no ****ing semblance of pocket awareness. 3rd and 4th down on our last drive and he takes a sack twice. Inexcusable. Such a winnable game and again we **** the bed because we are Tennessee.

Such ****** defense the entire night

I understand the frustration, and I think we're all on the same page in that we see a need for SEC depth.
That being said, the effort tonight was good. Yes, there are players who will be recruited over, but I didn't see a player on the field tonight not trying to win.

Not sure I could say the same at this point in the season last yr.

Our defense loss is this game. Kirkland and Kelly due to knee injuries are too slow.

I agree with this. We lack dudes on defense. Same guys that were terrible last year. They’ve done better overall but I long for the day when we can consistently stop the run. 230+ rushing yards allowed is the main reason we lost.

Except that one play at the end with JG get the sack I thought JG played well. Our boys played well. Should we have won yes. Were we expected to win, no. We covered the point spread. The officiating was garbage. Too many costly penalties. Some on the coaches some on the players. On to the next game. Go Vols!

Agree. But I'm not complaining about their fight. They dont have the talent.

Bingo! We were never going to sweep the last half of the season and we may still lose 7 or more games. I thought there were things to cheer for and build on in this one. Go Vols!

I think I’m ready for a QB change. I’m sure KC can hit the screens and underneath routes that we ran today. And I won’t have to see stupid sacks anymore. So sick of JG just standing there stationary with the ball. He did a better job of moving his feet and making a few plays after being flushed, but when it came down to it, the old Jg reared his ugly head.

Best case scenario is 6-6, with the most likely one being 5-7. I better not see any 7 or 8 win BS coming from some of you sunshine pumpers. Been telling y'all for months that wasn't going to happen with this **** stew of a football team.

Quot criticizing kids who put it on the line for us. They might not be the best but at least they're giving they're all.

Once again, not complaining about their fight, but I am well within my right to post my opinion about their talent compared to top tier SEC talent.

We are playing better than last year, but we don’t have too notch talent, so we aren’t getting top notch results.

Pruitt is learning too guys. It’s his 8th game as a HC. If he’s still making mistakes at game 24, then it’s an issue.

Also, don’t mind the 4th down decision. Their running game was gashing us at that point. He made a decision that a 50/50 at best FG chance wasn’t as beneficial as trying to get 7 yards.

My only discouraging complaint about tonight was the lack of discipline. It really cost us the game ultimately. I don't think that is a sign of coaching but that is two weeks in a row we have had issues with discipline
