It’s definitely the pregame late in the week freak out time for volnation…….
Don’t let the gators get in your head guys
Whole new mindset in the football complex
We play to win and we think we can win
No more loser mentality

Yeah, Mitchell played basically the whole game against Akron. Giving Beasley some rest, but also shaking off the rust. Defensively we're in really good shape going into this game from a health standpoint. Also seeing Herring, West, Josephs, Pearce all making plays and getting their confidence up is also big I think.

Those young guy really impressed me...I actually thought they played better than the #1s, of course I do understand we were up so big that they could just pin their ears back and get after them.

I think this is the first time in a LOOOOONG time that we didn't have a significant visible dropoff when the #2s and lower were in.

I have zero BVS about this weekend's game

Florida needs to be worrying about that option look we gave them
That plays gonna be worth a TD come Saturday when we fake it and throw
You can do quite a bit out of that look

Little do they know we're going to come out and run the triple-option all game.

 

[csprig9]

If Tennessee plays 60 mins the way they are capable of we win this game going away
Play our style of aggressive attacking defense and aggressive attacking fast paced offense
They can’t hang

Wishbone. HAHA!

Amazes me how worked up some of you get. Like we're leading the SEC in points per game at 52.0, which is also good enough for 4th in the country. Our defense is holding opponents to 14.3 ppg and that's good enough for 27th in the country.

Akron has two bad losses to two top 15 teams on the road, really not as bad of a team as we made them look. Ball State is also not as bad as we made them look, they were close to beating Western Michigan and if they hadn't given up a big run in the 4th they would have.


Of course in SEC play we'll score less and likely give up more. I just don't think Florida's the offense that's going to "expose" us. I think we win, and if it's close or not will come down to how well their defense plays.

I'm just playing devils advocate because I think our team is fine and should win handily Saturday... But those stats are beyond meaningless given who we've played. Those teams are every bit as bad as they looked.

Imagine waking up and Shane Beamer is your football team's head coach

What in the entire nation...?

 

[csprig9]

We’re number 11 in the country
damn near every game day show will be in town
All eyes will be on Knoxville Saturday
It’s been way too long since that was the case
This is what we all wanted
Gotta start acting like it
Time to take the next step and show we’re back

That is the gameplan.


"Linebackers, please don't give away too much against UT. They're REALLY good! Now go try not to lose. Break!"

Sure, Akron is one of the two worst teams in the MAC after losing to 2 top 15 power 5 schools on the road...

For what it's worth there are only 2 MAC teams with winning records right now. And only Western Michigan & Ball State have played any MAC schools.

I went to a MAC school and follow MAC football.

Eastern and Toledo are the two teams with winning records. Akron was 1-7 in the MAC last year/2-10 overall. I think Morehead is one of the better coaches and will get them better, but you aren't going to make that big of jump in 1 year.

Yeah, plus they were fresh legs playing against fatigued ones. I think Herring and Josephs especially showed some serious quickness off the ball.

 

[mr.checkerboards]

And they say Volnation is extreme.

 

[ConwayFitty]

Too dangerous.

Of course, that could work to our advantage…

I didn't say I wanted to be in Memphis. I want Sankey in Memphis. I've had some great times in that city but I probably won't be back any time soon if I can help it.

IF Irons stays healthy Akron will be a lot better than 2nd to worst.

This guy gets Waffle House.

 

[Bassmaster_Vol]

It actually was, 120 yards in the second half total. Hendon has to be more mobile.

Folks can’t handle it man. Fact is we haven’t arrived yet. Maybe we do Saturday, but this far we’ve shown nothing. I’m glad AR is terrible.

 

[Orangeredblooded]

It’s a weird time to be picking a fight over something you were wrong about. You do you though.

Just following your well sense of timing.

 

[TitanicVolz]

Random thoughts...But you can definitely hit multiple posters with the"Tell me you don't read Volnation without really telling me"..
I get folks don't wanna reread multiple pages but if it's news and over 4hrs ago 90% chance it's been posted.Idk if it's just me or what I just see the same posts over n over n over....
