Disappointed with 1st half defense. Played better in the 3rd but gave up 14 unanswered in the 4th quarter. Some of that was scheme imo. Rush four and Green will torch you. Banks has to know that.

2nd- disappointing to see Heup go conservative instead of jugular. Why? Didn’t learn vs UGA or MS State.

3rd- happy with the win. A win is a win! We are 5-1 with a loss most likely coming @ Bama.

Bishop will have his Knee xray and MRI Monday most likely - hopefully a sprain at worst.

Playoffs still in sight if we win run the table beyond Bama. But, that’s a big if as Oklahoma , FL and even Vandy will score big unless our D improves. At this point, I don’t know if it’s too late.

If we don't see our d improve, and Hype continues to go conservative, I see losses, to Bama, Fla, Okl. and Vandy. I really believe we have the roster to win out, but what gets me the most is our sslowing down on the offense with a lead, see it over and over. Watch the games again, when we had Ga. down like 20 to 7 we slowed the offensive game down. It just gives our opponents a chance to get back in the game. If we would just keep playing with the intensity and speed we had to get the lead we could win out.

Turtle time for Heupel... it's who he is. Doubt he can/will change.

No way this is a top 10 team. We're a product of a soft schedule. Give us the UF schedule, and I'm not sure we would have 2 wins right now.

He backed up his words. As for the flipping off, don't be a hypocrite. Fans celebrate Gaulden for his antics so they shouldn't have a problem with the Arky player doing the same...if he did as claimed.

Not being a hypocrite because first I never called out or said anything about Gaulden. Secondly, he didn’t start a fight. Thirdly, as far as you addressing me with the hypocrite personally, you can pound sand.

Dude's a tad harsh, but he's annoyed, like I am, with this defense

You seem not to be able to recognize that there's a problem on defense with this TN team and that because of it they're closer to 7-5 than they are 9-3

But they won!

How many 8-4 teams play for nattys?

There is no dominate team in the SEC. TN has coaching deficiencies and player deficiencies. Heupel’s play-calling at times is disjointed with no rhyme or rhythm - got taken to the mat by a few defensive analysts. Defense is porous.

Staff and team must improve.

My saying he bitches all the time has no relevance to what I think about the defense.

That's what your worried about? This team had waaay bigger problems than stats.
Click to expand...
Positive news coverage about Aguilar and our performance (stats) gets our name in front of potential recruits and transfers. For example, if you're a top receiver with offers from six elite programs, then you're interested in how well the coaching staff is developing talent. Stats are a big part of how players evaluate programs.

I'd put Miami at #1.

OSU might be better but based on THIS SEASON, so far, yes, Miami definitely should be #1.

The polls, the metrics, the favoritism, and corruption must be cleaned up!

All the conferences must adopt the live tv replay communications like the ACC is doing. It won’t fix everything but it will start the process of restoring integrity to the games!

The sorry Ark team starting a fight at games end rather than shaking hands and getting their butts to shower in locker room is abysmal. Go Vols! Hope they duck and lose the next game!

Do we ever play good after a bye week? Whatever we being doing in these by weeks needs to be changed
Click to expand...
Heupel's offenses have been particularly strong coming off a bye week. They have averaged 38 points per game in the 11 games with a 9-2 record.

When players are public saying this, you have major staff problems! Banks needs to go!!!! Heupel better realize this quickly or he won’t last 4 more years!

It could be that he realizes the players are not executing like they should as well.

There was a big difference with the defense from the first half and the third quarter. Then when we got up by 17, they appeared to relax when they should have been putting on the same steam, they were in the 3rd quarter.
