Thank you. I did not know that. That certainly explains why Tennessee had to report.

Honest question, was it worth it? You did not have to pay off Pruitt, and $8 million and no bowl ban is the best you could probably hope for. However, the NCAA is toothless and basically admitted they would not have known if you had not told them. However, there is value in coming clean and...

Nice win. We may not agree on much, but damn, we can agree that it is nice to see Dabo lose.

To answer the OP’s question, unfortunately no. Hooker was exceptional in the scheme, but the scheme also helped Hooker. Heupel has a solid offense year in and year out. For your sake, he needs to pull an Orgeron and hire a great DC.

My guess is that Banks has been a pain in the neck this year with his production down, perhaps leading to a bad attitude and/or a few minor rule violations. He missed a practice, which was the final straw. The Coach decided to teach him a lesson with a one game suspension, thinking Tennessee...

I am interested to see how many of your players opt out of the bowl game.

We all know that any good team can have a bad night. Sometimes, you just try to win and advance. Depth has been the issue for UT in the last 3 years.. Heupel has been great, but he needs two more years to fully get his guys.

Everyone not named UGA, if Hooker is ok. With Hooker, in a rematch beating UGA is an open question, although I think we pull out the win. I did not care today when Michigan eeked out a win. When I learned UT was in trouble, I watched. Respect. I look forward to the rivalry.

I honestly do not know. I had you in for the fourth seed. Heupel is a good coach. I don’t know enough about your DC to say if he should be replaced. However, with Heupel’s offense, you only need a decent defense.

Half my family went to Tennessee. Half to UGA. I am now stuck on the left coast talking SDSU with Mountain West fans. I would rather have a knowledgeable and good conversation with an SEC fan.

Next year in Tennessee will be interesting, which speaks volumes about what Heupel is doing. Home advantage was a key today. To be honest, I don’t want to face you guys again in January. I would rather get an overrated Michigan or TCU. You guys have the scheme and talent to beat anyone on...

What Heupel has done in two years is impressive. We won today with recruiting before Heupel made it to Tennessee. We had the guys who could match up to take away some of the quick passes. It also helped that we had just enough pressure on Hooker to make him adjust some of the long throws that...

There are a lot of positives for Tennessee tonight. Heupel obviously knows what he is doing. That offense worries me. When you guys get more of his type of guys, you are going to be dangerous. Your players also play hard for him. I truly hate to say it, but you finally found a good coach...

Honest answer: For Tennessee to win, you have to hold like crazy and not get called. Against UK, the refs let everything go. People were bear hugging our d-linemen. It worked, for a while. If the refs let you hold, that gives Hooker time to light up our young secondary.

While I cannot endorse the punching part of your post, I admit that I have never liked the grown men barking cheer.
