Wow! Strong start!

Undisciplined. You can have less talent and still be disciplined and fundamentally sound. That is a hallmark of a well-coached team regardless of the sport or talent level. The Vols are not disciplined and the fundamentals are not solid in certain areas. I don’t know which coach or coaches it is...

He has not played well against those teams. He’s having “big play” or “big bust” kinds of games. Meaning, he makes a huge play and then immediately negates it by looking completely lost and getting burned. Need more of a middle ground for Boo. He’s super talented. Would love to see him put it...

I feel like I heard Jayson Swain say something similar on the post-game radio show. He praised a lot of what Alabama does, but also said that he actually thought it was a good match-up for the Vols relative to other opponents. Nice post. 👍

😭 So true! I realized after I posted that I was being generous.

😂 Amen! We’ve done that, too, but decided to hotel it after one ill-fated late very late night trip home when we accidentally took the I-75 split and were about 20 minutes down the line with the kids before my husband and I were like, ummm…why are we seeing signs for Cleveland? Never again! 😂 If...

We Well, of course we want a room. I never said we need one in the sense of “have to”. Nor did I say I was unhappy to pay. I was commenting on the crowd being subdued/not subdued and wanted to add context to how we notice it from year to year. We pick the game/s we go to and make a mini ‘do of...

This. We were there and that’s what it felt like. Cheering our butts off repeatedly and then giving up 3rd downs was definitely affecting the crowd’s desire to “get hype”. It was a bit quieter, in general, yesterday. We try to go to one or two games a year since we’re a family of 5 and live in...

Suck it State!!! Ahahaha! Been on the other end of these kinds of games too many times. That is all.

Yep. Set the tone for the whole game.

My son has a #8 Nico tee shirt. He had it on at an 8 year old birthday party over the weekend. He wanted to wear it one last time after we told him Nico left. He got home, took it off and asked my husband to burn it in the firepit the next time we built a fire. 😂 Fortunately, Sampson is his main...

I listened to the post game with my mom and kids. We were at my parents' house for Sunday dinner and the game. Watching this team lose and then listening to their post game, and the final sign off for Bert and Bob, I honestly felt just so sad. Not angry, bitter, disappointed, or down. Just...

I can deal with a loss. I can’t deal with the team going out playing scared to death like they’ve never been in a big game before.

I’m going to have to not watch. I cant watch this right now. This isnt TN basketball.

Oh no. We look tight.
