The Official Tennessee vs. Tennessee Tech Game Thread, 12:00 PM ET, ESPN+ (SEC Network+)

And Ainge was pretty ok

Honestly after Lane reinvented him Crompton was pretty solid too. There have been some flashes. Bray is a HUGE regret by Tennessee. With a competent coach he would’ve been in Heisman contention.

 

[JCHateSteve]

LOL they don't want to kick to Jones.

 

[VolMarine1371]

Thought I read he can’t play til Florida

He is eligible now. He only had to sit 2 games.

 

[Vol737]

Tech is really really bad.

So are we at the present time. Should be a good game then.

 

[Dirtyhairies]

Had SEC talent, just not the maturity between the ears.

Neither did Johnny Football. But id argue both were SEC caliber quarterbacks.

 

[orangerush]

Who ever is doing graphics needs to lay off the booze

 

[Volstylexx]

Hooker needs to play the rest of the year

Going to be hard for Huepel to do that. He has too much invested in the relationship.

Jeremy Banks doesn't need to be on the team. I think playing mean is good, but he's already shown signs of getting another personal foul today. This is going to continue to happen, and its gonna happen at some really bad times.

That’s silly talk

 

[I4Vols]

I’m liking Tim Banks defense at UT. Given the personnel losses to the portal, doing pretty good.

Come back at us in 4-5 weeks. This is TN Tech

 

[JMSqb11]

Did they just say Arkansas is the 2nd or 3rd best team in SEC West? A little early for that.

I mean they have a big win.

They are definitely behind Bama and A&M. Is LSU or Auburn better? Auburn May have claim if they win tonight. They’ve played two cupcakes so far

Maybe, but I won't be surprised if that's how it shakes out come years end. Pittman can coach and I love the way they play. Tough coach leads to a tough team.

And Ainge was pretty ok

Eh. I guess I am talking more Clausen, Manning, Shuker, Kelly level players.

 

[EODVOL]

Man a lot of NegaVols here already....can't even be happy about a score...
Hooker first pass should've been caught, over thrown and then comes back and gets the TD geeezus

It's TN Tech; it should be expected. Why do Vol fans celebrate one long TD throw? It should have been happening all season.

 

[chuckb1448]

Gotta get over the interception fear and throw it to the wr's

 

[willinhf]

Neither did Johnny Football. But id argue both were SEC caliber quarterbacks.

I won’t argue that…put up solid numbers, just didn’t have a defense.

 

[Vol737]

Yall done freaking out after 1 drive yet or nah?

Hell no. What fun would that be??? Geeez.

 

[imavolfan]

What’s up with the yellow first down marker! Lol

 

[orange_glory]

Gee past the first down marker

 

[VFL28]

Can we see some HB?

 

[ABINGDON VOL FAN]

Good to see Merrill excelling enough to start in place of Hyatt today.

 

[mpfvol]

overthrow again come on hooker take the job lol

 

[Berry4Heisman14]

Inb4 Walker Merrill looks like Zach Rogers 2.0

 

[orangerush]

What’s up with the yellow first down marker! Lol

Its elusive
