    Wish Haslam would sell Browns and buy some Vols

    As a longtime Cleveland Browns fan, I wish Haslam would sell the Browns, too.

    Ive felt a lot better after the blowout since...

    Ohio State alum stopping by again. IMO, Vol fans should feel good about the 2024 season. You don't have to be happy with how it ended, but probably no fans truly are unless their team won the national championship. Tennessee won 10 games and beat Alabama, Florida and Oklahoma. That's pretty damn...

    Vols destined to only be a top 20 team...

    Perhaps not on a consistent basis, but recruiting is only part of the equation. Ask Florida State and USC (the real USC, lol). The coaching staff has to properly develop players, come up with a game plan and in-game adjustments that gives the players the best opportunity to win, and continue to...

    We Need A QB From The Portal

    That may be true but Ohio State's secondary got torched by Oregon & Dillon Gabriel back in October. Still have to get pressure on the opposing QB and hit him throughout the game, even if sacks remain elusive. Buckeyes rushed 4 that game and hardly ever got any pressure on Gabriel. He had @5+...

    Don’t be angry. Be honest. (I’m encouraged)

    Howard is a very accurate passer when given time. And he's very experienced. It didn't hurt (probably) having 3 future NFL receivers starting, with a 4th (Brandon Innis) a top reserve. Any team electing to single cover Jeremiah Smith is just asking for trouble...as long as Kelly/Day don't go...

    Very upsetting performance & lack of execution. Out matched all over the field.

    Worked pretty well for Steve Spurrier...until the Gators ran into the Huskers in the Fiesta Bowl.

    Per sources, some guys played last night knowing they were leaving

    Congress is almost never the answer unless the question is, "What is the biggest waste of taxpayer money in the US?"

    We Need A QB From The Portal

    Quinn Ewers, recruited to be the 2023/24 starter at Ohio State, is currently the starting QB at Texas. He didn't want to wait until CJ Stroud had moved on to the NFL to get his shot at starting so he packed up and left for Austin. Some QBs transfer because the head coach has retired (Julian...

    Bad look for the playoff committee so far [updated]

    I like non-blue blood programs having an opportunity in the CFP even though I'm an Ohio State and Nebraska alum. Really glad Boise State finally has an opportunity to compete on the big stage; there were a few seasons I think BSU could have competed with any team in the country but didn't get...

    We Need A QB From The Portal

    Ohio State alum here. I watched several Tennessee games this season. IMHO, Nico Iamaleava isn't the problem going forward. That kid has heart and he's a competitor, attributes that can't be taught. He's a tough, shifty runner as he proved multiple times last night. He'll have had multiple games...

    Very upsetting performance & lack of execution. Out matched all over the field.

    Not sure if TN would have won, but it would have been a much closer game without a doubt. Day/Kelly deployed the dumbest game plan in the history of Ohio State football for 2024 edition of The Game because former Wolverines coach Jim Harbaugh had called the Buckeyes 'soft'. Instead of utilizing...

    The Official #9 Tennessee @ #8 Ohio State Game Thread, 8:00 PM ET, ABC/ESPN

    The high character players in the program will be even more determined and work harder to reach their goals (SEC Championship, CFP, etc.).

    The Official #9 Tennessee @ #8 Ohio State Game Thread, 8:00 PM ET, ABC/ESPN

    It was @3 weeks ago when I was cursing Ryan Day and Chip Kelly for the dumbest game plan in Ohio State history. So I know how frustrating it is when the team you're rooting for is (seemingly) kneecapped by the coaching staff and/or doesn't bring its 'A' game in an important game. Comes with the...

    The Official #9 Tennessee @ #8 Ohio State Game Thread, 8:00 PM ET, ABC/ESPN

    Ohio State alum. First, kudos to Tennessee fans for showing up at the Old Horseshoe on a cold night and supporting their team. Y'all were visible and loud -- well done. Second, your QB is going to be really, really good next season -- especially if he gets some difference makers at WR. Finally...
