Recruiting Forum Football Talk IV

[jakez4ut]

The other thing to consider going forward.. Missouri committed a bunch of penalties Saturday. Really helped our cause.

So like I said the other day...I like everything I saw... But it was a perfect storm of Missouri being absolutely awful and us playing as close to an A game as we've played in a long time.

I'd expect things to come back to the middle on both sides in future games this season.

The good news is the plays we made have been there in every game we've played, and we missed those Opportunities.

Those same opportunities will present again. Just gotta keep taking advantage. Gbo.

LOL. I didn’t even notice when I pulled it up.

Twss

Problem is AR15 gonna save him. He’s legit unfortunately. But he still won’t win anything significant

Let's hope they fire Mehlen and AR15 transfers.

 

[thomaseusin]

Why did the Smoky Greys disappear? Those were some of the sharpest alt unis in college ball. The mountains on the helmet were a very nice touch too.

Wear smoke, they’re fire

Justin Harrington, Oklahoma, Cornerback (247sports.com)

Wonder what's up with this kid? Saw he's in the transfer portal. Originally from North Carolina.

 

[OrangeMoundTNVol]

He said Charles got hurt. Acted like he could’ve gone back in if he needed to though

I think we played much better without center fielder Flowers in the line up.

It’s the purgatory that you get when you keep watching the YouTube…the fresh hell you deserve.

Signed,
A grumpier almost 59 year old male.

I watch guitar finishing, power tools and TN football videos!
Good sir, You aren't grumpy, you are blasphemous!

 

[InVOLuntary]

World would instantly improve.

Sidenote:
Every time I watch a YouTube video, I get a Tik Tok ad, teenage girls doing some stupid dance, acting goofy and listening to current pop "music".

I'm a grumpy azz 46 year old male.
What fresh hell is this!?!?

YouTube premium for the win.

Bought 3 tickets to the ole miss game today. Haven’t been to a game in Neyland since we ended our season tickets in 2017. I’m so excited to be back.

I bought my tickets as well. I used to go to 2-3 games a year but this is the first I’ve been to since BYU 2019 (already had tickets but after GA state didn’t want to go) and had planned to go to no games this year except Georgia because my best friend is a UGA fan and I was going to just make a trip out of it.

As long as we take care of South Carolina this should be the biggest lead up and best game day atmosphere since I guess Florida 2018?

That's what I'm hoping for. Early Florida 2018 was insane.

It’s amazing how little this fan base needs to be back in full force. One blowout win against Missouri and a win against South Carolina and Neyland will be sold out rocking again. Just. Like. That.

Never thought I would, don't watch enough.
But wanted my wife to see a funny commercial and had to sit through 30 seconds of commercials to watch a 20 second..umm, commercial.
T'was the dreaded no skip "video will play after ads" gut punch.
On another ad!!!

 

[UTJoe]

I'm sure it would get poeple excited regardless. But, there is something about night, primetime games... Just 'bigger'.

...I think you may have misspelled 'drunker'

I dont think its just those factors. But they help. I think the black jersey rumors play a part. And I think who Ole Miss HC is plays a part as well. It's just a perfect storm of things.
This may be seen as a bit of a hot take, but I want Ole Miss to beat Arky. A win over a top 15 team in year 1 would make a lot of noise.

The Missouri game felt like the pendulum swung completely to the other side. Nearly everything went our way, and when it didn’t, we were already too far ahead for it to matter.

I’m with you I expect the pendulum to swing back the other way, closer to normal for USCe. I think it will be closer than Missouri for sure but still a game where we could have another nice performance.

My cup is still on though.

That is also true but for me personally if we weren’t going into that game 4-2 with a blowout win over Missouri and a good win over South Carolina I wouldn’t have even thought of going regardless of uniforms or time. Beating Missouri by 40 has created enough hope that maybe we can pull an upset.

That's fair. I wanted to go to the OM game before the season started, I know a lot here don't like Kiffin, but I'm a fan of offense and he is a really solid offensive mind. I'll follow his OM teams just to watch their offense. I did the same with Freeze and the same with Chip Kelly when he was at Oregon.

I watch a lot of YouTube. I couldn't go back to regular YouTube. It's too annoying.

 

[tnhunter 10]

Sounds like the uniform combo for SC will be black pants, black jersey with the white helmet.

I agree with you about them beating Arkansas though. Bring them in top 15 and let’s ride

No. LWS are his initials.

Stands for Larry With Socks but I still doubt it’s the same person.

I'm afraid that is going to look terrible if the jerseys Nike released to retail look like the ones we wear on the field. There is no white in the jerseys to match the helmet.

Be careful. That’s how it starts…next thing you know, you start paying for channels to watch dudes play video games because they are funny…

Friend of mine is a high school teacher and got sucked into multiple gamer channels because they were hilarious, but he was paying at least $10 per month for each channel…$30-40 per month to watch other people play video games. Totally insane in my opinion.

Syracuse WR Taj Harris is in the portal. Three year starter and all ACC last year. Has a career 135 receptions, 1857 yards, and 10 TDs. Would have 2 years left.

The thing that gave me the most hope is that Tennessee FINALLY seems to have a team that can take advantage when the other team isn’t playing well. In years past Missouri would play that bad, but Tennessee would let them hang around until they got it figured out and eventually won the game. Not on Saturday!
