Lol, Pruitt clowning on the media.

I agree, I know people here claim journalism but I feel like every single time they get to question Pruitt it’s trying to bait him into something. Constantly trying to get him to admit we have no shot, wanting to see him stumble on concussion protocol for mauer. At some point it’s just fun to see our coach after a good win mess with the media a little bit.

He makes a good point
Yes concussions are very serious but what do you do
do you stop after every play and check guys
That’s the only thing you can do unless a guy is wobbling around or his teammates or refs notice something is up

Double posted, so I'll use this space to wonder when the SC game will be played? Late or early?

It's funny because the guy handling the press conference was like, yep, that'll be the last question. Lol

Could tell Pruitt was about to light somebody up.

Honestly absolutely NOTHING about Maurer's headstand made me think concussion, and he didn't even appear to have gotten his bell rung even a little bit.

I've seen linemen get up from normal blocking plays with more wobble in 'em than he had.

I didn't think concussion--I thought it could be a neck injury, but then he got right back up and started playing.

It certainly looked bad. Took him a second to get up. Held the back of his neck.
MoCo take a look at Maurer when he comes off the field after the interception and see if he isn't holding his left arm by his side as if it is hurt.

I'd take the over on 3 wins left.

Our defense & running game should be enough to beat Vandy, UAB and Kentucky....we get South Carolina after they play Florida so I'm looking for them to be pretty beat up coming to Knoxville.

We’re gonna be beat up after Alabama. We should sit the starters and play for a bowl. :)

Oh I thought he was hurt, but nothing about it looked like a concussion...

I thought stinger or shoulder issue.

To start the game our offensive line is going to let the Bama D line know they will be in a battle. I expect to be surprised by the Vols play. You go onto the other mans territory and take it from him. Thats what the Vols do. They take it from them. I admit Kennedy, Wright and whoever starts beside him is going to have a tough time but it's time to man up, win individual match ups and let them know they are in a war...Go to Bama and take it from them. Go Vols

One of Pruitt's best press conferences. Little more relaxed. Great to see.
Give Pruitt credit for realizing he needed T and Rumph on the side lines. There presence made a difference I think.
Just for all of to remember we were really celebrating getting Pruitt as head coach. He's learning also.
I think he has his wake up call and knows where he's made some mistakes and is correcting them.

Anyone who can't see we've improved quite a bit from the Florida game needs help.


Over/Under 3 wins left

South Carolina at home
UAB at home
Kentucky away
Missouri away
Vandy home

Push looks most likely. 2 for sure. 4 has a chance too, just not probable.
