7-3 WVU long run set it up

Does it look like Squirrel is running with more effort than anyone else?

 

[Creeker]

It’s Ball. St bro and we are struggling to run on them.

Small averaged 4.8 yards by himself in the first and do you really think we are throwing the kitchen sink at them?

 

[VolFootballIsLife]

I don’t like the hurry up hand off on 4th. Slow it down a bit and get your blocks read. Don’t see the advantage there unless you sneak it

 

[RAVOL]

Relax running game with get much better. Ball St crashing gaps but sacrificing pass rush. In CHRIST Alone

 

[captainsword]

7-3 WVU over Pitt. Pitt lines seem suspect.

 

[volrush77]

Yeah. Run game is unimpressive so far but it's only the 1st Qtr.

 

[ABINGDON VOL FAN]

No your not. They underperforming and playing sloppy

most teams play sloppy at the beginning of their first games regardless of the talent level. SMH.

 

[Old Spice]

Pitt has looked kinda average. As expected.

score of pitt game

 

[MeanOrange]

Vols still don’t have an SEC level running back

Agree. We need a Jamal Lewis back there. Not sure that fits in with JH's idea of a running back.

 

[ACvol3]

We aren’t gonna show anything tonight.. playing vanilla

 

[Volbrando]

Hendon looks a bit off tonight probably just jitters

First time he’s able to be hit in awhile

 

[sunnyvol79]

To be up 17-0 we got a lotta critics in here lol

We look uninspired, I know it’s Ball St. but it’s the first game of the season we should be balling and up more than 17-0. I thought this offense was gonna be like Cam and Auburn in 2010

Hendon looks a bit off tonight probably just jitters

He just needs to settle in. We know what he can do.

Does it look like Squirrel is running with more effort than anyone else?

He looks enthused yes

 

[SoddyAllVol]

Was hoping for 24 but I reckon I’ll take 17

 

[perico]

To be up 17-0 we got a lotta critics in here lol

sorry didn’t mean to quote yours

Put Milton in!!

where’s the savior Harrison Bailey when u need him

 

[ACvol3]

Agree. We need a Jamal Lewis back there. Not sure that fits in with JH's idea of a running back.

He is recruiting big backs.

 

[VOL_Lyfe]

JG would be 8-11 right now ..... with 3 to the other team

 

[AustinMem]

Will be worried if Hendon is still off line this next week. First game is often bumpy

 

[rocky top buzz]

To be up 17-0 we got a lotta critics in here lol

In fairness I think most of us are looking at more than just the score.

 

[hUTch2002]

7-3 WVU long run set it up

That world beater D line got whipped on that play.

 

[LucidZ]

Bruuuuuuuuu!

 

[Peyton Berry]

Hooker is like 5 for 10...does he have a completion to the same guy twice yet???

I agree he’s had a subpar Q. Even most of his completions have been off. I don’t like J Rodgers but he was right, he floats that ball over the top to Hyatt and it’s a TD

 

[YankeeVol]

Lucky there with that throw
