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

[Voltrapnbama]

This offense is better without Tillman and I’m not sure why

He is the only one making plays. He and Bru have to be the guys. They are taking the long ball away for the most part. Possession receivers have to be the ones this game

 

[Memphisvol87]

Score here. Make Carolina start reverting to their mean. They are bad

 

[tdd]

Yep

Did we really deserve the playoffs with the **** defense

 

[malibuvol]

A loss tonight wouid sure put a taint on a great season

Especially to a team coached by Shane B...This is pathetic

 

[vol94]

Hyatt not open tonight. Not sure why we continue to struggle w play clock when we slow down.

Also, Hooker can make plays w RPO by keeping the ball. It appears to me that Heup has called less QB keepers for him since UGA game. I’m not sure if he is banged up or if it’s a coincidence, but we must score on every possession the rest of this half.

 

[Carl Pickens]

If SC lines up the same the middle will be wide open again

 

[GUNTERSVOL]

Hooker seems off on the long ball tonight; passes look a lot more 'floaty' than normal.

Hyatt pulled up and left the game, Tillman still not full speed. Time for 10 and 80 to step up.

 

[Vol8188]

Im not so confident. We haven't stopped them yet. We are actually looking worse as the game goes on.

Get to the half with it a 1 score game and we win. They don’t have enough dudes to keep doing this

 

[joevols89]

Yep. Love Hendo but he’s relying too much on Hyatt in the deep route. He needs to work through his other reads because he had Fant in the middle for about 17 yards.

Hyatt and Hooker too worried about running up the score leading up to this game, LOL.

 

[Bollweevil]

Joe Milton???

 

[90 Vol]

Did we really deserve the playoffs with the **** defense

No

 

[Godfatha]

Haven’t seen D this bad since Sunseri

 

[Big Edmonds]

Might be me. Tillman is good but both games he has been in after his injury changed our offense. Put Ramel in and keep doing what we do.

 

[sechamp2012]

That deep shot wasn’t on Hooker. Hyatt just stopped running. He must be hurt, otherwise we might have scored.

#9 grabbed hand full of jersey slowed him down refs aren’t calling much

 

[SoddyAllVol]

I'll take the over on that.

They are pushing 300 yards total already.

No Joe

 

[Frosty]

Why are we playing our worst corners right now??? Slaughter sit out too or just bullshzt about seniority

 

[Defaultuser]

Do we ever throw in the middle of the field?

They throw to Fant usually, but not tonight.

 

[RockyTop140]

I got a bad feeling about this one

Now you do??? Way to step out on a limb

 

[DOCTORLOOMIS]

It’s amazing how many were begging to “take the points” and kick that silly FG and absolutely would’ve punted there on 4th and 1 from the 50.

 

[knoxchief]

If our D can't do better, we won't win this game.

 

[lifeisdeep]

Losing a game like this is borderline Butch-like

No excuse for it. None.

 

[mackievol]

What's up with the 15 min timeouts?

 

[Other_Guy]

9 wins is awful. Great argument. Would expect this from a Panther fan. Just go all in and pull for USC

I'll never recover from this burn

 

[knoxvol52]

Doesnt matter if we come back or not playoffs out of conversation now maybe Citrus Bowl

 

[Go47]

If the Vols score here . . . Onside kick it. Better chance than this garbage defense stopping the Gamecocks.
