No, it's not. There's some smoke in the dumpster but the dumpster is not engulfed yet.

With that being said, a loss to Arky and another bad JG performance will be like pouring gas in the dumpster.

Count on a loss to Arky...flip a coin as to JG's performance.

A 3-7 season is staring at the team.

no. Two losses were to two of the top teams in the country and the third was hopefully just a really bad day.

Five games to go.

The UT program is average at best right now.

Guess what................ So is FSU, Michigan, Texas, Nebraska, Miami, USC, (or even less than average right now.)


why do you, or myself think, that UT "deserves" to be a national contender?
Scholarship limitations, access to TV, Conferance TV money, BCS, CFP, Conference Championship Games..................It has all added up to much more equality in all FBS and some FCS teams. The really good rich get better. The bad get a little better, and the average stay pat.

1989-2004 aint' coming back soon.

I could care less about those other programs. I won't be satisfied until that list includes UF, UGA, and Bama being put in their rightful places with our cleats on their faces.

I don't agree, not meeting fan expectations........yes, but not a dumpster fire. Do some fans have unrealistic expectations, sure.

Fans must have low expectations. Evidence of dumpster fire:

1. Coaching leaving after < 1 year on job
2. Losing to Vanderbilt and KY in same year
3. Losing 8 games for the first time in program history
4. Losing to GA State
5. Losing to BYU
6. Losing to KY by the worst margin (and at home no less) since before WWII
7. Three (yes three) coaching searches where we were at the bottom of the barrel because no real coach wanted the job. (Dooley, Jones, Pruitt)
8. Four (yes four) different ADs during this time
9. One AD being called back while out searching for a coach
10. Offering HC jobs, then retracting them (supposedly twice)

If that is not a dumpster fire, do not know what is. And those are low expectations...not even going to mention a National Championship, SEC Championship, winning the SEC East, a Jan 1 bowl game, etc.....

i Would rather see Maurer. He’s quick and has been around longer. I want to see him get a real shot. if it doesn’t work it’s easy to move on to HB. On the other hand, if you start HB and it goes wrong we could have a bigger mess.

I also see him transferring if he doesn’t become the starter. He had a rough time this past year and may feel like he needs a fresh start.

Better bring out the bubble wrap 'cause he can't stay healthy.

Don't think we're a dumpster fire, but lose to Ark on Sat, and we'll be one step closer.

This whole season is crazy. Miss st beats LSU and some Think we missed on Leach. They have been terrible since. Ole Miss looks great against Bama. Some say we need Kiffin but they are 2-4. Schiano wins at Michigan St and I saw people think we missed there only to see them lose to Indiana. UNC was top ten and lost to FSU and Virginia. LSU can’t win and Cincinnati is considered top 10. How can Jim harbaugh have Stanford rolling then take the 49ers deep into the playoffs but can’t win any game that counts at Michigan. Clemson is still ranked #1 but I can’t see how they would have a chance to stop Bamas offense.

this whole season has been a Dumpster fire for a lot of teams and I believe coaching is a part of it but I also put a ton of it on the players. i Think a lot of the players put more energy into protesting and also partying instead of preparing themselve.

Is kiffin getting blown out?
With less talent?

Might be about time to take down the torch bearer and put a statue of a dumpster with a flame lit in the center.......never thought after the championship game in 99 we would have went this long without being relevant again in the SEC. Only game you can convince yourself a win is probable the rest of the way is Vandy and it may be a dog fight lolz

True. We had 2-3 years of decent football, but I would still argue that some of those teams underachieved. There was some real talent there when Dobbs was a senior.

They did underachieve Dobb’s senior year. First sign for me that Butch was not a good coach.

Depends on how the rest of the year goes. 1-4 and Pruitt's 4th year will be a put up or shut up type year. I still think he's around for a couple more years no matter how bad it gets. Fulmer won't fire him until he feels pressure to do so. Not sure those donors really care one way or the other anymore.

we were good until halftime of the UGA game.

what happened at the halftime intermission?

somebody must've tripped over a helmet or something because we've not played with the same intensity since that halftime
