The Official #15 Tennessee vs. Miss St Game Thread, 4:15 ET, SECN

[orange beard]

EVery body on the orange seems to get hurt on most plays

 

[Orangeslide]

We are getting a dose of our own medicine. Their tempo is making a difference for their offense.

 

[patrick]

4-man rush and we blow it. Like I said earlier. STACK THE ****ING BOX AND MAKE IT HARD.

No kidding.

Banks going to rush 3-4 and drop 7-8 in zone and get eaten alive. Total shyte-show.

 

[joevol33]

This isn't good

 

[Go47]

Every time it’s 2nd or 3rd and long teams have us right where they want us.

 

[Arrested Devolopment]

J. Joseph went to school 1 mile away from me at North Cobb.

 

[ButchPlz]

EVERY time we pressure or pile up the box we get home or cause issues. EVERY time we do a weenie 4-man rush we give up 10+ yards. Come on man.

 

[Voltrapnbama]

The 3rd and long conversions are really ridiculous at this point.

 

[BreatheUT]

I'm actually starting to lose a little confidence with the plan and the performance.

 

[Volpatine]

We’ve got to get a stop!!

 

[87&91ALUM]

Sooooo many injuries so early in the season...ugh. Get well soon Josephs.

 

[orange beard]

Hell… bring third and chavis back

MUSTANG!

 

[Switch 625]

Our zone defense sucks worse than the mustang package.

They literally play behind the line to gain. Makes no sense.

 

[VOLinAL]

Third and Chavis, third and Sunseri, third and Banks. Am I missing any?

 

[FranklinVFL]

Entire defensive side of the ball should be looking for new coaching jobs.

This is just abhorrent and should not be this bad this many years into their tenure.

 

[LordBolton]

Our defense looks great until 3rd down, then they crap in the bed repeatedly. It will cost us, if not today then soon. Maybe today though.

 

[brubaker]

We have to be the worst 3rd and long / 4th down defense

 

[TN1111]

Had a whole half off and now our whole defense needs wholesale substitutions... guess what Banks... our players aren't all 50 years old

 

[Go47]

Banks must go.

 

[Butch s]

Are we going to ever run the ball again?
How the does our defense keep giving up 3 and long?

How long have you been watching Tennessee football???

 

[VOL RN]

Think I’ve seen enough today

 

[Orange931]

Banks and Chavis go hand in hand

 

[Go47]

We have to be the worst 3rd and long / 4th down defense

Yes. Last in conference.

 

[BigOrangeD]

Can't stop their run game.

 

[Carl Pickens]

Interior d line is getting mashed
