...No one is complaining...

Then stop complaining.

He’s going to have a very busy Friday night/Saturday morning.

That's the most American idea I've ever heard

I'll be honest....I'd rather Florida boat race Kensucky and then coast into Knoxville with a huge ego about how good they are at 3-0 only to then get crushed by the good guys.


Kentucky losing a lot this season when they return their "projected first round QB" is what dreams are made of friends. Hoping they lose 5 or 6 games at least

I don’t…. I want kentucky to beat them….. us destroy them….players start infighting and becoming dysfunctional causing Billy Napier to write another love letter to the fans at the end of the season.

Sorry, for that I meant from a performance standpoint. We got some good edge guys last class in and a good haul of DBs this year

Eh...I'm not sure I'm ready to comment on defensive performance. They played vanilla AF for a half, and still shutout Ball State who many will say "bad team" but they did make a bowl game last season.

Banks didn't want to show anything and he didn't. Rushing defense was stout again like it was last year, and RG having more bodies to play will only make the DL better as the season goes along.

DBs flashed more than any group on defense though. McDonald and Hadden both snagging picks with great reads on the QB. I thought Tank, Flowers, and Burrell tackled a lot better than they did last season and saw Tank playing faster with the weight loss he had this off-season. Don't know if those 3 guys are really "vultures" in the secondary or ever will be, so I'm just going to hope they can be in position to break up passes and make tackles.

I hate Florida, but I am starting to really hate Mark Stoops. Right now, I would like to see KY and FL play an ugly game and FL win by 1 point to crush Stoops.

I think Heupel likes to see some of the senior season tape from some of these RB croots. There are a lot that make a huge leap in performance as a senior.

How did we miss with Verse? NIL? Relationships? Both? Other?

NIL in that one.

I just want us to put the beating on Pittsburgh. Like a 2 or 3 TD spread that they can Shane Beamer about late in the 3rd.

There is no bad outcome for the Florida-Kentucky game. Someone has to lose.

There is no good outcome for the Florida-Kentucky game. Someone has to win.

You are exactly right. The SEC want 1 dominant team from each division. They didn't want those two teams to be the regular cross division opponents. That gave them the best opportunity to get two teams in the playoffs. The SEC is as crooked as the NCAA.

That is 100% right, and they 100% get away with it because usually intelligent people don't want their fantasy of "fair competition" destroyed.

Those people that refuse to see and acknowledge the obvious truth are as much to blame as the filthy crooks and their media lackeys that perpetrate it.

We will get screwed Saturday by the SEC refs if the SEC office is still intent on the status quo.

They do NOT want Tennessee back, and have not had to do too much to hold us down over the last decade+ thanks to our own adminstrative ineptitude...hopefully that has now changed and we can move on back to our rightful place.

Don’t think he can keep up with our pace. Better have a defibrillator on the sideline.

Y’all get ready for the designated fake injury guy to slow us down. Here is his photo.

i don't think the SEC cares who is at the top as long as the SEC is at the top.

GA, Bama, LSU, Auburn, FLorida, TN, aTm....don't care. even better, financially speaking, if all of those teams go in to every year with legit title hopes.....you think the SEC doesn't want as many of those 12 spots as they can get in the new play off? with TX and OU now in, and the new scheduling format that likely won't have divisions at all....it would be possible for half of the 12 to be from the SEC.

no way the SEC doesn't want as many teams "back" as possible.

it's all about money. they love money more than they hate any individual program......

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

We're gonna murder Pitt. We're gonna beat 'em so bad they call the police for domestic violence.

I hope you are right...I don't think you are, but I really really hope you're right and it is a war crime game, and not the coin flip dogfight I think it is going to be.

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

No way. Kentucky needs to get knocked down in a big way, then we will take AR off the news feed ourselves.

I hope it is a Florida victory, but both teams play like .

Yeah especially now that the playoffs are likely going to 12 teams.

SEC gets 4 teams in = BIG MONEY

Now...if it's Us against an undefeated or 1 loss playoff potential squad Bama, Florida, Georgia etc. then I do think we'll deal with some bias against us...especially if we're "out of the race" for the playoffs. Great example is the Ole Piss game last year...they were still "in the hunt" with their only loss being @ Bama and we were already at 2 losses.

I hate Florida with the passion of a thousand burning suns. I hope they lose every game they ever play. I hope their fans lose heart and dissolve to Vandy status in short order. I hope their stadium corrodes around them and becomes a pile of burning rubble. Their campus can sink into the swamp as well. Yet despite this, they have to continually be destroyed by our teams year in, year out for an eternal torment unseen this side of Hell itself.


Kentucky? Meh, we own them. I don’t care.

 

[MoCo_Vol]

Peter Burns trying get that VolTwitter crowd interaction I see.

 

[MarcoVol]

This is what I was saying during the game. They don't have more cash at FSU than Tennessee. They chose to put more into verse than we cared to at that time.

Granted it’s only been 1 game, but I would consider that eval/decision a mistake thus far
