Have there been any injury updates? Is Maurer, ok? I've seen classless UGA fans bragging that we had a QB until they killed him.

They are the worst fan base. What’s funny is that most of the ones who actually went to UGA are usually pretty good fans. But 80% of UGA fans have never even been to Athens and only claim them because they live in Georgia. They are the roaring majority who are classless and compete idiots.

Felt very good about what I saw last night. I can say others inside feel the same.
We have a legitimate game changer at qb position that proved he is better in a game situation than he is in practice.
There is a ton of positives that can be taken from yesterday and additinonally i think all games other than Bama left are winnable. That or anything close to that happens and we will really have some good momentum on recruiting front. Like we all know from last year...its not how you start...it is how you finish. We could see something special and some really fun football the rest of this season i think.

If we rebound and make a bowl game, that would be a HUGE statement. Man next Saturday is BIG.

As long as this power struggle continues behind the scenes with the heavy hitting boosters (Haslams are responsible for this, IMO), the ship will continue to sink. They are going to do everything possible to make sure Pruitt (and Fulmer) fail in resurrecting the program. I wish @Atlanta VOL could come in here and confirm this is what is happening.

TN is one of the most complicated places when it comes to the power struggle. Truly one of the only places in SEC where it is like that and no question one of the reasons we are in the situation we are in. Haslams are supportive of JP just as an FYI...

I haven’t posted in the FF in a long time but I posted this over there. Not sure it’s earth shattering but Doug Mathews made this point this morning

I don’t always find Doug Mathews to be the end all be all but today he made a lot of sense on his Big Orange Sunday show.

He said a HS football coach that he admires a lot coaches at a smaller classification and his approach to games made him look at our situation a little differently.

He said we needed to put the SEC into two classifications. The top one is of course Bama, Ga, Lsu, Auburn, Florida and Texas A&M( I don’t agree with him on this one)

He said the rest go into a smaller classification.

The hs coach told him the only thing he tries to do when playing a upper classification game is just survive the game, play a lot of people for developmental purposes and limit injures.

With that said we are now with the exception of the Bama game ready to play teams in the same Classification and imo it’s really nut cutting time to evaluate this program.

There is no denying the last 7 games have been one of the worst stretches in our programs history.


During that stretch we have been outscored 56-117 going 0-3(I included BYU in our Classification) while also losing a game to a lower classification(Ga State).


We have 6 games left against our “classification”. We simply must see progress there before we have any thoughts or even discussions about ever being in bigger classification.

They have some great fans but boy, do they have some 1990s level Florida fans as well. Any fanbase is going to attract all types and we certainly have our fair share of classless ones but they have a few more than most right now (probably because they're getting a lot of bandwaggoners these days).

I listened on the radio. There was that moment when JJ caught the pass and turned up field in the drive right before the half. It seemed like we would pull ahead again 21-20. Alas. Got to make those breaks. No telling how far that momentum would have carried the team.

Id say we get raced 4th quarter anyway. Just like last year keepin it with 12 in the 4th quarter. Then they just rolled up their sleeves and steamrolled us back to back drives. We need way better DL to keep up 4q with them in the near future. Dont need jucos that tweet all offseason. Need stud HS kids come develop for 4 years or RS. Need to build a long term roster like miss st did under mullen

Take away our extremely lucky busted coverage on the Callaway deep ball...the game was not close man. We had a good quarter and a half, which was encouraging, but this was a blowout that just took a little longer to get started than we expected.

Extremely lucky..... Tennessee had scouted that play all week and used the defenses tendencies against them
