I'm rewatching now. I'm still dumbfounded by the strange kickoff return forward pass attempt by the Iowa returner. It's even funnier to hear the official explanation after the review where the confused referee says "Apparently." I've never heard that word used by an official while explaining...

We stopped using that version of the logo in 2000. There are only so many ways to graphically depict the letters "U" and "T" for the purposes of logo. Let it go.

That's very unlikely given his size. He had to bulk up to move from safety to LB. His speed is what makes him great on the the outside. He helps set the edge and prevents us getting gashed repeatedly on outside runs. He's also much better for covering opposing tight ends. I don't think the...

Casual fans look at interceptions and pass break-up stats and think that measures how good a cornerback plays. Like you are implying, you need to pair that information with the number of targets to the receivers they are covering.You have a great CB when the QB looks over there and thinks "Nope...

I suspect lots of Orange came from the Memphis area where there are lots of Ole Miss alums that marry Vols.

Has anybody told the Offense that "Team 118" is a historical designation, not rank goal?

In theory only rushing 3 and 4 would keep the sack count down. The problem with that is we've given up sacks against 3 and 4 man rushes to less skilled teams. If OM rushes 3 and drops the rest in coverage, there won't be anywhere for Worley to throw, and it will just be a coverage sack at about...

I'll be 10 rows back in Section 104 with my brother and father. It will be the first in-person SEC game for my brother on his birthday. It's my first trip to the Grove. Living and working in Tupelo, Mississippi has been a bit interesting last few weeks.

Don't forget that Butch already flipped a D-Lineman over to the O-Line to get another starter with Jashon Robertson. We're horribly thin on both lines, but the D-Line is performing much better.

Even if they do overlook us, their D-Line could sleepwalk past our O-Line and it won't matter. We've been lucky to see the line hold up for 3 seconds on plays so far. Ole Miss is far more talented and physical than any team we've played this season (yes, including Oklahoma).

Our defense might keep us in the game if we can force "Bad Bo" to turn the ball over. With our OL, we aren't going to be putting TDs on the board against that nasty defense. IMO, the only way we win is a couple of pick sixes or a huge return.

Yeah, but you can even play QB for the Broncos with a UT Communications degree.

Yep they were saying that Tennessee has 44 losses against in-state teams. They attributed Vandy with 44 of them, yet Sewanee is second with 10. Math is hard for SECNetwork.

It can be a surreal experience. When UTM played at Neyland at the beginning of the Dooley reign, I was rooting for UTM since that is the campus I attended. I knew going in that UTM winning was way beyond a longshot, and I really just wanted a well played game that was close for at least a half...

OL would be my pick. As others have stated, the difference in strength and conditioning of a true freshman versus experienced 20-22 year old men is huge. The game speed is an even larger challenge. In high school, the typical 3* to 5* lineman rarely encounters opposing players at their own skill...
