The Official #19 Tennessee vs. Texas A&M Game Thread, 3:30 PM ET, CBS

Hype doesn’t have a good record when losing at the half does he?

Nope. His entire success is dependent upon getting up on teams early and forcing others to play from behind.

 

[SmokeyOrange]

have faith, it's gonna turn into a miracle season.

 

[HiltonHeadVol]

The stubborn refusal to stop the middle runs seems to be putting us in 3rd and long. And WRs or RB/TE are kept in to block so no check down for milton. seems questionable play calling to me, but I don't know much

 

[Voltrapnbama]

Lol hand off up the middle on 3rd and 21. A-M passes on 3rd and 18 and converted

You’re down 3 and a turnover would be detrimental (as would have been that fumble). You hope to bust one like we did on 3rd and 18

 

[vols 30]

That would be 8-4, right?

I'd probably take that right now

 

[barney]

Ollie Lanes killed 2 drives

I don't understand why a walk on is starting when we got a bunch of young 4 stars on the bench. I love what Ollie lane did for us last year, but he has not played well this year.

 

[lilesrt]

Checks notes:
Tennessee is 4-1 and in the top 20.

Throwaway year?

It’s about to fall off the table. 6 wins and a bowl win is what we’re looking at. About on par for having a below average QB and an average at best defense.

 

[Volnbeers]

Milton has not progressed, still making mistakes that middle school QBs should not.

There is no way this offense holds up on the road at Alabama if they can’t function in a home game.

If they end up losing today, they will drop the game at Alabama lose to Kentucky and Georgia.

@ Mizzou will be a toss up

Mizzou will pour 60 on us lol

 

[TheVolunteer002]

I love 3rd and a mile draw plays

 

[TNHopeful505]

Yes. Much.

 

[hatingbamaisawayoflife]

Might have 21 points if swtched qbs and had Johnson

 

[JO VOL]

That would be 8-4, right?

No 3… L’s, A&M, Bama, Georgia. If we can’t get the passing game going anyway.

 

[PalmettoStateVol]

It's these dang uniforms......we should burn em' and never wear them again.......

 

[TheMookieMonster]

have faith, it's gonna turn into a miracle season.

Fat chance

 

[SonOfGodVolforlife]

Joe is soft. That was some thuggish bs that seemed to be one of the proudest moments of his career. He has to be one of the dumbest qb’s to ever play the game.

Thuggish? If that would’ve been Tebow everybody in the country would’ve gushed. If he lowers his shoulder like that at the sticks it’s a win for us. Don’t respond if you’re just gonna keep bashing Milton bc I’m not disagreeing with you he needs to step up this next half.

 

[Butch s]

Problem is Nico isn’t better at this point. He’s not physically ready or knowledgeable enough. If this game ends up an L, you start playing Nico for experience.

You have absolutely no idea he isn’t any better. I have watched every single play of every single game this year. If he’s not better than this, who in hell tagged him with a 5*

 

[rocketskates]

Disagree. We just need to stop killing our drives with penalties (Looking at you Ollie Lane…). Lean on the run and keep smashing their QB on D.

And take advantage of their mistakes. They’ve given us a 14 point swing, we just haven’t capitalized.

 

[volsack]

That would be 8-4, right?

That is correct. We have the dumbest fans in college football, and our fans continue to prove that right

 

[Volinnooga]

Do we have any available left guards?

 

[volfan1631]

We gonna own the 2nd half. GO VOLS

 

[RavinDave]

This offense does not click with Milton. I don’t expect to see Nico unless Joe gets hurt (heaven forbid) but it might bring a spark of life we sorely need.

 

[ftsandersvol]

Milton is simply not processing the play.

 

[MontyPython]

Best bet is we go 9-3. Carry some moment into next year. This game, Bama, Georgia will all be losses.

We already lost to FL and you say we'll also lose AL, GA and TAM yet...

You say "best bet is we go 9-3".

Hmmmm...

 

[SayUWantAreVOLution]

We finish 8-4. Yes.

You got lottery numbers for me too?

 

[charleyhorse]

Officials have to stop the injured player after TN big gain. # 28 went down and back in after 2 plays. Played rest of half. sEC officials blind or looking other way.
