The Official #13 Tennessee @ #14 Missouri Game Thread, 3:30 PM ET, CBS

[HighRockvol]

No excuse to lose to missouri ever

 

[AllVol68]

Tennessee gets the ball first after the half so we can run pass pass punt.

 

[VOLFan65]

I’m going to forget this half and watch an episode of The Office during halftime.

 

[KnoxRealtorVOL]

Jalen Wright fumble was bad.

Likely a 10 point swing. Hard to overcome.

 

[Credo2]

We gonna need to go Ray Charles in the second half

 

[whodeycin85]

Yall do realize the game isn't over yet right?

 

[landscapingvol]

Y’all hating on Banks but fail to realize the players he has to play with aren’t very good.

In year three he can’t be held responsible for his recruits, I have heard it all now lol. I have never seen a UT defensive coordinator given more excuses outside of Chavis but he at least had fielded great defenses in the past. Banks has never fielded a consistent defense for an entire game against an actual opponent much less an entire season

 

[vol94]

Enough said.

 

[GoVols1961]

We're going to bring out the big guns in the second half. Starting with Sampson.

 

[Jaxon_Vol2017]

BUT it is a small miracle we're only down by 6. They whipped our tail that whole half.

 

[volfan102455]

Schrader had close to 1000 himself.

They had 300 yards. It looked like more because they had long drives. Tennessee had 201 yards.

 

[ButchPlz]

Seems just like the Florida game, I see no fire in the guys trying to motivate each other. Just seem to be going through the motions. Need something to spark us up.

Really irritating. No fire from the team.

 

[wmcovol]

Remember when we were worried about Burden killing us?

I tried to tell one poster here you have to control the running game. He wanted no part of it. Well, this is why

 

[SATX VOL]

One live penalty called on our opponents in the last 3 and a half games to this point. That is extremely questionable no matter how you look at it.

 

[OLEVOLFAN]

It’s hilarious that people were talking about this team winning this game and possibly beating Georgia next week. What a joke.

So it's Over???

 

[nomads-11]

3rd and Chavis is the gift that keeps on giving.

NOTHING more frustrating than this. And Banks seems to let it happen a lot.

 

[VolunteerCeltic]

It’s hilarious that people were talking about this team winning this game and possibly beating Georgia next week. What a joke.

The SEC will not let TN win against GA, there is too much money to be made with a Ga/Bama in SEC Championship game and potential to get both in playoff.

 

[DuckInAPen]

Name a time Vandy was ever ranked #14 and 7-2 after 9 games

Vandy was always a tough out in my great-granddaddy's day.

 

[ETV]

Y’all hating on Banks but fail to realize the players he has to play with aren’t very good.

It's year 3 for him. With the portal to his benefit. Good coaches adapt their philosophy to the personnel.

 

[lilesrt]

How about the games be staggered.. all the games are at halftime at the same time. Or at least it seems that way.

 

[Volizona]

How bad was that sequence? Fumble and another awful play by the defense. They don’t even look like they are trying. No excuse to allow that with 20 seconds left.

And it makes me even angrier to look at Heupel not showing any emotion at all. He needs to get his team fired up.

 

[orangerush]

Vols look flat, like they have nothing to play for.

 

[markus]

Love these comments.

 

[VolArmy74]

They just repeatedly play terrible on the road. I don’t get it.

We are 6-6 on the road under Heupel. Half those losses are top top 5 Alabama and Georgia teams. Two others are to Florida, where we have one win in about 50 years.

 

[EZE]

Tigers get the ball on our 18 yard line. Banks gives up 3 points with 20 seconds left. I am at a loss for words

That wasn’t on Banks. His players gave no effort. Really embarrassing
