The Official #5 Tennessee @ South Carolina Game Thread, 7:00 PM ET, ESPN

[Nerwen Aldarion]

O has to come out and respond again

 

[Clad in Big Orange]

Banks being out is bad news.

Horrible loss. He's the QB of the defense. We don't look the same.

 

[DustyRockSolid]

south carolina hasnt been able to really score all year.......

 

[Jeff Clark]

Rattler Heisman game? Of course it will be

HH will outgun Rattler

 

[DEFENDTHISHOUSE]

Note to Heupel............you need a new D coordinator.

Defensive back coach at a minimum.

 

[Renaissance Hillbilly]

Ok. Who snuck Chavis into the coaching box?

 

[OL SMOKEY]

Secondary coverage always a step late. Need to get some pressure on Rattler. Defense needs to step up. Ridiculous

 

[Switch 625]

Tennessee will win another shootout

Shouldn’t have to be in a shootout with a team this bad.

 

[GhostVol]

I hate that I pucker up every time the opposing QB drops back to pass......

TN's secondary is just something..... don't know quite what, but it's something

 

[Jxn Vol]

Serious question. Have we ever had an elite defensive coordinator?

 

[Jaxon_Vol2017]

Why not just blitz every play? Our dbs are gonna get beat either way

 

[Gandalf]

Looks like losing Banks tonight snakebit the Defense. They are getting beat like a rented Mule.

Our defense is making the cocks look like they have our offense. Only TN is allowed to be that dynamic on O

 

[Rockytoprowdy]

No pressure up front definitely isn’t helping the secondary…

 

[Hopeful Vol]

Rattler going to have a career game against us

 

[UTFanHades]

Sorry but our secondary is pathetic. Martinez has to go. This is unexcuseable and its every game

Tell me what coach can do anything with those players.

 

[EaglesVols91]

It’s still early, but yea defense needs to step the hell up

 

[Vol737]

No penetration to harass Rattler. Bring the heat!

We have to get down by three TD’s before Banks will allow it.

 

[Andrew8210]

South Carolina has more than doubled the points they scored against Florida last week. Does that mean Florida's defense is better than Tennessee's defense ?

 

[VolunteerCeltic]

Not going to be a cakewalk today, defense decide not to show up

 

[joevols89]

Slaughter can’t cover Vann. No chance.

 

[Doctrippin]

Coaches will adjust to their plan. It's early

 

[615vols]

The banks and Martinez show…

 

[MurphyVol]

We gotta kero scoring, it takes us until mid 3rd quarter to remember how to play D

 

[Jpcisco]

That's the last points they score.

 

[ABINGDON VOL FAN]

I assumed the blue font on this post was really damn obvious.

No blue font on his post. WTF !
