The Official Tennessee vs. Charlotte Game Thread, 4:00 PM ET, SEC Network (Alt.)

We are going to win out

we thought we were good enough to put on a helmet and have it handed to us, we aren't, we have to strain every play, every series, every quarter, every game

 

[lifeisdeep]

I think we should petition the NCAA for the right to offer scholarships to offensive linemen. I feel like if we had some players who actually knew how to block and had some strength, our offense would look a lot better.

Along those same lines, maybe we should consider hiring an offensive coordinator. I think someone with some knowledge of playcalling would be invaluable.

 

[NEVolFan]

Enjoy this. Last win till August 31 2019.

I am 100% in agreement... wishing to be wrong, but there is not a sign of life in the O-line. No respect for the run in the next 3 games, and JG will be blitzed to no end. We have not seen ugly like the ugly that's on its way.

 

[VolGirl81]

Have we completely stopped passing to Jennings?

 

[JCHateSteve]

I'm afraid we're a couple of years from even a bowl game at this point

That's what i'm afraid of. I don't see how the O and D lines are going to be much better next year. We need to recruit well, and i'm wondering if we'll be able to do that now.

 

[sechamp2012]

We are sitting at 24 carries for 24 yards rushing.

That’s unbelievable to me.

Yeah but we played one of the top CUSA teams against the rush their 3rd or 4th but todays stats may move them up to 1st

 

[cHiZzLeVOL]

The coaches actually said they made adjustments. And then Bama adjusted and shut us down again.

KC came in before we made halftime adjustments

 

[FïreBall]

Moral victory?

 

[VolMarine1371]

Actually, against the #6 rushing defense in the nation.

And #18 overall Defense in FBS.

 

[hUTch2002]

So he and JG have 6 combined 200 yard games. An embarrassment of riches at the position

Yeah, it isn’t a position of strength but sadly not our worst either.

 

[MaTaLa]

Back to back 4-8 seasons

 

[Freak]

Moral victory?

No, we actually won. It's just a victory.

 

[MeanOrange]

We’re UT. Had he ran it back there’s always the possibility of something bad happening like Aliens landing in Neyland forcing us to forfeit

Laughing so hard I got tears.

 

[DVols33]

Pruitt just say JG doing a good job. Unbelievable. I'll predict now that Pruitt is gone 2 years from now.

Playing a high school caliber team and you don't give your backup QB any play time while you starting QB
gets the snot knocked out of him and only leads the offense to 1 "ONE" "a single" "Uno" touchdown drive.

That's coaching denial and that with the banks move to and from defense shows that Pruitt is not a head coach.
At least not yet and I don't see fans giving him 8 years to develop into one.

 

[JohnD13]

We beat Aub. We can get two wins for sure.

Zero chance. I doubt we get one

 

[hUTch2002]

KC came in before we made halftime adjustments

He did but one of the coaches said they made adjustments, obviously before the half.

 

[C-south]

Not from what I’ve seen and not from what the coaches have seen. Our coach literally just said JG is doing a good job.

He has 3 tds in limited time. JG has 8. He has about a 30 point better qb rating and 2 yards more per completion. Why not give him a chance because JG is most definitely not the answer or gonna do great things at UT?

 

[DC_Vol]

This is the saddest I’ve been since last Saturday.

He has no talent on this team so even if He is a good coach. He will need several years.

 

[NEVolFan]

Right now I’m still trying to figure out our path to the sec east title this year.

Gonna take a hell of a spreadsheet for that one... Excel might have a plug-in that gets you there.

 

[Giveem6]

We beat Aub. We can get two wins for sure.

One would think but playing like that we won't win another football game. I have zero optimism. Only way is if the defense continues to get better and keep us in football games. JG has horrible pocket awareness and bad footwork, on top of that our oline is the most God awful tennessee offensive line I can ever remember. Today we showed how much we rely on ty chandler and what this offense looks like without him. Not impressive at all but a W is a W.

I’ll have to disagree with you on this one.

 

[illinoisvolfan1]

That was the most boring thing I’ve ever experienced.

I feel fortunate that I only watched half of the third quarter and the fourth. It was a horrible display of FBS football.

Didn’t know a high schools playing in FBS. What he said was he would hate to be the QB to when you can’t run the ball. Look what he does when he actually does gets time.

Missouri is my 2nd favorite team today!
