Hopefully this is the last year we lose to UK, Vandy, or Mizzou for a long long time. Tennessee should never lose to those teams, like ever. We have too many resources and support for this crap to occur. I believe Pruitt will start waxing these types of teams starting next year. These should be tune up games for the real competition in the east imo.

I just believe we should be able to line up against teams like mizzou and beat them to a pulp. Our overall resources and team talent should be enough to whip these types of programs. I just don’t get it, they are a joke of a program imo

Its not that hard to understand. We havent had a physical football team since 2015. Since then we are on our 3rd strength and conditioning program. Botch let the guys get extremely out of shape and lazy. Also, these players are not executing like they should. The talent on this team is misleading. They havent been coached up nor do they put out the effort. Why do you think Pruitt has constantly told us he will get players that will do it right?

I’m not disagreeing at all with your statement. I’m just stating I believe we are at the beginning of a dominant run against the bottom feeders of the east. Pruitt will have these boys eating nails by next fall. We have a Bama clone setup right now on the hill. It’s only a matter of time now...

This isn't 1998 and this Mizzou team is better than ours right now, like it or not.

I agree, but I think the extra practices are bigger for incoming EE talent, than for the current roster...Nothing seems to help a lot of those guys.

EEs don’t get the extra practices.

I don’t want to pile on because I know these guys are doing their best, but do we have a single offensive lineman who would start for any other SEC team?

It seemed like UT threw almost every first down and ran almost every second down. The playcalling seemed very predictable today.

With that said, a commitment would make me feel better!

Bring on Vandy and get bowl eligible!
