We curb-stomped a #10 ranked Northwestern like it was a scrimmage with basically the same players that played tonight.... let that sink in....

And tonight we found a way to come back and get a win against a gutsy and good football team. The TN of last year would have lost this game tonight.

The way you put it, sounds like we were just knocking off some rust. Hope you're right.

I do t think that's quite fair. Since Jones has been here his yes have fought to the last snap.


Now a Dooley team on the other hand....

I was thinking more like they did against Oklahoma? In overtime? Last season? I don't know if you remember it?...

I was comparing games where we were behind and didn't "let it go" and we came back to win. Apples to apples and all.

Honestly, NW was nowhere near a top 10 team despite what rankings said. But still. They are better or at least on par with App state, so it is puzzling.

I said Dobbs was the weak link on offense all offseason long and got bashed endlessly for it. Our oline didn't show what they really are tonight. Imo our best guys didn't even start tonight.

You need to Chill on Dobbs a little. He played his guts out against UF And the main reason we Beat UGA. He just needs to play like he did in those games, we'll be alright.

His passing was horrific against Florida but he ran all over them. Georgia was probably his best career game, he was in beast mode that game. I guess the only reason I'm against him is just because my preference is a pro style 300 yd a game passer.

If you think Dobbs was the problem than you have issues. I seen a young man give his all for Tennessee (especially) in the 4th quarter. Without Dobbs effort we would be Michigan 9 years ago IMO.

That can be a double edged sword though, Dobbs late interception before halftime cost us some points, some of his bad decisions led to numerous punts. Dobbs shouldn't of even had to show heroic effort in the 4th quarter. It was appy state for crying out loud. I could care less if they went 11-2 last year. They're.a.sunbelt.team

Trust me I'm not saying he didn't make mistakes because he made several but look at the game stats. He didn't run very much for various reasons but his passing game was more than good enough to put this away.

I wouldn't say more than good enough more like barely good enough. If it was more than good enough it wouldn't of been as close as it was and we would of scored more than 1 TD in the first 4 quarters.

Mhm I'm pretty sure he had almost 100 yards more than Lamb. Not saying that's an accomplishment because it's not but compared to them it's enough that we should have had a decisive victory. All I'm saying is Dobbs had a Decent day. We depended on him a lot more than what most thought and I'm proud and happy.
