'25 Recruiting Forum: Official Tennessee versus Oklahoma Pre-game/Game Thread

[VolsAgainstTheWorld15]

Sounds just like when I was told Alabama’s OL gives up a ton of sacks and we never got to Simpson.

That’s a good indicator that we’re a pretty average football team that has been blessed by a favorable schedule to be 6-2.

It’s not over yet, but we can’t afford to fall behind three scores to start this second half.

Arch Manning yelling at the camera is ew.

 

[GoBigOrange86]

Defense finally plays well.

We're running up and down the field, just killing them.

And we're losing.

I swear. So frustrating.

We just can never get on the same page.

 

[SmyrnaATLVolisback]

OSU played bad the first half against PSU and gifted them a score before half. Then they woke up and dominated in the second half.

I think our team knows they are better and we will come out ready to fight in the second half. Go dominate and win!

I swear. So frustrating.

There’s always one game where our Offense wets the bed. We need to change the sheets at halftime.

 

[Nighthawkvol10]

We absolutely suck at the small details.

hasn't changed since Heup got here unfortunately. just a guarantee with his teams at this point

 

[TheMookieMonster]

I just continue to be so annoyed at how undisciplined this team seems to be in Year 5. We’re pissing away this game. The only way for Oklahoma to win this is exactly how it’s unfolded. Handing it to them.

 

[TechnoVol]

Sorry, not a huge fan of Joey. I know that won’t be a popular take in here.

This D with Joey’s carelessness = 8-4.

Season. Over.

You think Merk is better?

 

[KB5252]

I am not surprised at all. I knew Joey was gonna struggle against this defense. This ain’t last years OU defense.

I don't care if he struggles, just quit forcing the ball and take what's there.

 

[BigOrangeTrain]

Oklahomas defense has not been good lolol

Yeah they aren’t very good

 

[UTK]

I’m not even joking. We beat ourselves the first half and lost by 6. Refocus and we win by double digits

It's mindboggling.

And yet feels like every game this year minus UGA and Cuse, which made logical sense. No other game has computed for me. Just too weird.

"Not a fan of the #1 QB in the SEC" derp

[Jackcrevol]

if they score coming out of half. ...

 

[UTK]

Yeah they aren’t very good

They’re good but we stopped ourselves more than they stopped us unfortunately

 

[VolNRaleighNC]

You think Merk is better?

Hell no. It is what it is. We were told of Joey’s carelessness before he even played a snap.

I agree with this. If we go 10-2, we don’t deserve to be anywhere near the playoffs. We are basically Mizzou of last year. I’d rather be this than 6-6, but we are not a good football team and would be 6-6 if we played someone like bama’s schedule.

 

[KB5252]

The defense finally figures it out and the offense gets stuck on stupid. Give me mediocre on both sides of the bsll and we win comfortably

 

[utvolmaniac]

Top 3+ negatives:

1. David Sanders missed assignment.
2. Myles Kitzelman lack of tackling.
3. Joey Aguilar piss poor decisions.

 

[Devo182]

Yeah they aren’t very good

If they're good, then we just laid 250 yards in a single half on a good defense.

We've had self inflicted wounds and a scoop and score which never should have gotten past the whistle with a lineman 3 feet offsides lmao

Kind of

Ah, not cool. Dude is a proven VFL.

 

[ndubvols]

Props to the defense so far, if they can keep up the performance in the second half I’m confident the offense we will put up some points.

 

[Orangeburst]

No more TOs and we win

 

[Jack Burton]

If we are all being totally honest this is not a playoff winning team. It's a great offensive team and yes we could beat a playoff team, but this team in it's current form is not genuinely of that caliber.

We’re not. We’ve beaten up on the league punching bags. We could make the playoffs through some luck and good play but doesn’t look like it at this point.
