The Official Johnny Majors Classic Game Thread: #24 Tennessee @ #17 Pittsburgh, 3:30 PM ET, ABC

[orangerush]

The offense gives me hope and the defense gives me no hope.

 

[Matt2496]

Let's keep this up!

We need another stop here. Still plenty of time to score. Not sure what Blacklege is on when he was talking about us having three timeouts and 5 minutes. 5 minutes with 3 timeouts is 3 drives for us.

Yes indeed. 3 and out. And score another.

 

[voltnh]

So not as embarrassing as the posters on the first few pages alluded to… so far a fun game

This thread would make a great study in mass formation bipolarism...

 

[lukeneyland]

Now let’s play some solid fundamental tackling defense

 

[DEFENDTHISHOUSE]

Get a quick stop and do it again.

 

[guido4198]

Our FOUR point lead could prove to be real important as this game goes on and both teams essentially exchange TD’s .

 

[SoddyAllVol]

Put on more steam baby. Blow em out

 

[dduncan4163]

Heup ya killing me Hoss WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

 

[tennrich1]

How many passes have we had our hands on? Hopefully we’ll convert some of those going forward.

 

[Volbrando]

Well I will say this. Usually we come out firing and then let down in the 2nd but today we came out flat and came back in the 2nd. Let’s hope we are fueled up now for the 2nd half

Need to stop them before half

 

[C-south]

Can the D make a play?

 

[Jpcisco]

Wow, I almost turned this off with Pittsburgh driving, right before the pick. Vols showing some heart. D has to step up.

 

[DaddyChad]

Slovis on the phone with mom asking her to come and pick him up.

Knew they were going to come after him today. We just have to hold up better in coverage.

 

[imavolfan]

Tillman. 6 rec 111 yards. He is showing he deserves all the preseason hype

 

[Cdywolfe]

Well hello 6-6

Never doubted this team for a second.

 

[ffemtp]

GO VOLS!! Need the D to get a couple more stops and we should be ok. We can score on them

 

[peerless98]

The smart play in that situation is short kick it and pin them deep

That is good strategy, but I prefer no chance for a return

 

[Dudleys87]

On the TV , the UT fans are much louder than the Pitt fans. Even the band.

The PBRs aren’t fully set in yet. Give it time.

 

[Volstylexx]

I’m sure some people on here are really upset for that TD

So not as embarrassing as the posters on the first few pages alluded to… so far a fun game

Calm down. It's a game thread, and no one watching that first quarter had any reason to "feel good" about where things were headed.

 

[Shakinthefat]

Defense…..you got to step up, pressure the QB every freaking play

 

[Flipdaddy]

Everybody feeling better now? Quit giving up on your team so quick.

 

[ALStateLineVol]

Our receivers our too big and strong for Pitt's DB's. Mismatch all day long

 

[malibuvol]

Let's keep it going guys...I don't think Pitt can stay with us now...

 

[dduncan4163]

Tillman so deep put their ass ta sleep
