The Official #15 Tennessee vs. Akron Game Thread, 7:00 PM ET, ESPN+/SEC Network+

Not gonna lie - people anointing Joe Milton as the future based on a few plays against Akron - the same Akron that UT is ahead of by 53 right now - is kind of funny. I respect the kid’s heart but c’mon now.

problem was never disability. The problem was his overthrows. That appears to be something he has taken coaching on and improved.

U. Tex. San Antonio is being a buzzkill on the Longhorns. 17-17 3rd Quarter.

I think it's the absolute Cannon on display.

 

[WestTennesseeVol]

Akron is going to beat up their best chance of winning conference games trying to prove a point

 

[Dudleys87]

238 total yards so far for Florida.

It should be a slaughter next week but it’s Florida

 

[TheVolsFrog]

They dialed back the defense dang it

 

[TrapVol]

South Florida is about to go up on Florida.

 

[VFL28]

Another awful call.

Why would we not get excited about a 6 yr. Collegiate player with that kind of arm talent in the 3rd year in our system becoming the starter?

 

[ButchPlz]

PI on a ball out of bounds

 

[imavolfan]

That was PI? I need to see the replay

 

[FlVols]

These refs are so screwed up

 

[TheVolsFrog]

Weak PI

 

[Dudleys87]

I said it earlier in the week Texas won’t ever play as well as they did against Bama all season.

 

[AustinMem]

Remember too, if he had challenged that pick in the end zone.. they’d be stuck at 0 still

That would not have been overturned. The PI was BS prior to that, as well as the roughing, which would have stopped Akron much earlier

 

[SayUWantAreVOLution]

More than anything, Milton getting confidence and settled in is good just in case Hooker gets banged up. That's good, even if we just see him in mop up this year.

 

[ETV]

238 total yards so far for Florida.

Should be, but we'll come in psyched out and get behind early.

 

[DEFENDTHISHOUSE]

Good stuff from Harrison there. Asking what he did wrong.

 

[Jaingo]

Cut off the horns of the wicked!

 

[JCHateSteve]

Refs definitely bet the under.

 

[YankeeVol]

Weak PI

They've made a TON of bad calls

 

[GhostVol]

The body of work is very intriguing. But if that cat runs out of bounds again....

I think (hope) he's learned from that. And that's all I can hope for from a Vol.... learn and get better.

 

[HighRockvol]

West a freshman right

 

[Vol in Buckeye Land]

It’s Akron, yes. But if Milton can gain the confidence and comfort level in the pocket that Hendon has, he has the potential to be our best qb since Clausen.

 

[Proud Army Wife]

238 total yards so far for Florida.

It’s about dang time this team takes advantage.
