The Official #16 Tennessee @ South Carolina Game Thread, 7:30 PM ET, SEC Network

Pruitt has got to entrust someone on the staff to handle clock management. We totally screwed that up.

 

[Knox-a-rue]

Spurs up, y'all.

Now g'night.

 

[djohnnyg]

So your grand plan is to throw the ball on 3rd and 27 with the lead and risk an incompletion/int and stop the clock? Short of a miracle, we weren't converting that 3rd down. Run the bawl was the right call.

Yes....since we were in that situation. I don't think we should have been 3rd and 27 in the first damn place.

 

[I4Vols]

Pruitt sounds pissed at JG lol

Hey, no turnovers. That was greatly appreciated.

 

[JMSqb11]

Pruitt has changed mentality of the program at Tennessee. How many times have we’ve seen Tennessee lose in that fashion in last ten years. Pruitt has Vols learning to win in tight games.

 

[Wezcoast]

Man, CJP just used the R word

Reezeelyance?

 

[VOLAGAIN]

Positives: we won
Negatives: JG is still our QB

Creative.... Not really

 

[Halph66]

WHO runs on 3rd and 22???

You have to. Gotta keep the clock running.

 

[SaintLouisVol]

Pretty disappointed that JG is still the same guy, but I’ll take the W, and consternate til next week.

[BigOrangeCrush32]

People can hate on JG, he was a big reason why they won this game

He was THE BIGGEST reason it was even close.

 

[Ernest T. Vol]

Muschump can suck it

He deserves it.

 

[OrangeVolMan]

WHO runs on 3rd and 22???

Running the clock.

 

[SGMVols]

WHO runs on 3rd and 22???

You really think our offense could’ve converted that? Come on. You can’t give the other team 40 extra seconds there.

 

[1974Vol]

Gator Bowl type win. I will certainly take it but you see how the other team although a weaker roster had a QB that kept them in the game. SCAR Tight end drop on their last drive and of course late special teams play was the difference. We're a long way from being a good football team but finally won an opener under CJP. An ugly win is still a beautiful thing!! GBO!

 

[DNBVOL]

Velus Jones looked impressive

 

[rockytophigh]

You shut your blind mouth

 

[Caculator]

How 'bout them VOLS!

 

[Proud Army Wife]

Here's my take:
JG is very inconsistent as we all know. The secondary is greatly missing shamburger as he covers the middle of the field. The OLB and DE need to play their assignments and stop crashing

Also can't call a 46 yard feild goal on 4&1

 

[hUTch2002]

Can people on here stop saying Muschamp owns us now?

 

[Jackcrevol]

Running the clock.

who runs a jet sweep on 3rd and 22?

 

[FLVOL_79]

Not gonna lie, I kind of feel bad for #9. That’s a brutal way to lose.

Yep. Same here. He was just doing what the coaches told him. I love the win but man I feel bad for that dude.

 

[Big Al Orange]

Tn could be good on offense if Pruitt will finally divorce JG

He’s got 7 days to get another QB ready and all things considered that should be enough.

 

[whodeycin85]

Feel better... Got it off your chest .. I am sure they know they left points out there... But they also did enough to win ... Happened to a few teams ... A&M barely beat Candy by 5

Has Kellen Mond ever fumble 4x in a game and lost all 4??? Doubt it...so despite 4 TO they still won...we had no TO. Comparing games other then score is a joke and shows lack on knowledge

 

[BLUTickbusdriver]

True. And disturbing

I’d say that banks is probably done...he was already on a short leash. JG is a problem. We don’t have the ability or talent for him to find his sea legs...qb needs better play quickly...game mgmt doesn’t mean diddly if you can’t complete a forward pass.
