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

[turn3]

Someone needs to tell the D that the game has started and they need to get off the bus. Any hope of making the playoffs is over.

 

[titansvolsfaninga]

They look out of it, like they would rather be somewhere else.

 

[TheMookieMonster]

This is so damn embarassing. South Carolina has been **** all year long on offense and the Gamecocks have 28 points and 300 yards of offense in 1.5 quarters. WHAT A JOKE.

 

[Creeker]

Team deserves to lose right now. Pathetic. Run your mouth all week and all game and then every time you actually get hit in the mouth you do nothing about it. Gamecocks offense look like men playing a bunch of little boys.

 

[Memphisvol87]

If we go down because of this defense against a terrible Carolina team I’d fire the entire defensive staff

 

[UTK]

28 ****ing points to the worst offense in the conference. Get the **** out of here Tim Banks and don’t come back

 

[RockyTop140]

This alone is enough reason to fire banks. I’ve never called for him, but this is just inexcusable

 

[Jaxon_Vol2017]

Games over

Gtfo *****

 

[casetopia]

Mods please delete this thread. It's bad juju.

 

[tnburban]

They thought they just had to show up.

 

[wrharvey21]

Defense still in knoxville

 

[JohnD13]

Pro tip. If you let them score a touchdown every possession you will lose.

 

[Bryan1]

Absolutely no defense, this is not a play off team!

 

[BigOrangeFanatic]

Welp. We can put the playoff talk to bed.

 

[rocketskates]

Every time we have a good team there’s a huge opportunity and it’s like we don’t care. 2016 sugar bowl on the line, lost to Vandy. 2001 national title shot on the line, lost to LSU. Tonight….

 

[BleedOrange81]

If this isn’t enough to show banks the door then I don’t know what is..

 

[Ernest T. Vol]

Jeremy Banks being out is killing us.

 

[DEFENDTHISHOUSE]

Just getting whipped at the line of scrimmage.

 

[JoeMiltonsAgent]

Rattler goes for 400 on these DBs

I'll take the over on that.

They are pushing 300 yards total already.

 

[LadyinOrange]

This is ridiculous, y'all.

 

[Orange931]

Anybody else want night games still?

 

[Berry4Heisman14]

Tim banks has been awful his entire career here. Imagine how awful we would be if our offense was just average or above average slightly. Put into perspective how bad we’d be. His defense is horrible and has been his entire tenure here

 

[BLUTickbusdriver]

Bye bye playoff…stupid defense.

 

[Vols98forever]

We can’t trade touchdowns with them and expect to win. Our D needs to show something. Anything.

 

[tnvols72]

Why is the defense just sitting back and waiting on everything. This is sooooooo bad.
