What do guys expect? I mean yeah we play well enough to possibly win, but we didn't. We played 2 top 10 possibly top 5 teams and we are rebuilding. You can't expect us to hang in there and beat everyone. Quit being so negative. It may be a moral victory and maybe they are for Vandy but that's where we are right now. We are making progress and its a preview for what is to come but we are young and shorthanded. It will take time. Be patient and we will get better and turn these so called moral victories in major wins. GO VOLS!!!

STOP IT!! we should have won this game plain and simple. I tcome down to lack of leadership by the coaches. The VOLS was teh better team by far they just suck period.

I am pretty proud of how we did today overall. We grew a lot as a team today so not much negativity from me.

I agree, it seems some of these people do not have a clue. Our team has gone through alot the last couple of years and it will take awhile to get back to where we all want to be. Lack of quality depth, talent on the field not what we became spoiled to through the 90's and early 2000's. Time, patience, recogonizing good effort when it is there, continued development, etc. and we will see the results in years to come. Howcome some can not accept we are not at that place we want to be at the current time and recogonize progress is the goal, immediate satisfaction would be nice, not realistic.

oregon? ok. but florida is not a top 10 team, and definitely not a top 5. they will start losing games this season eventually.

are we really shocked by our record at this point? I'm not. I really feel we have gotten better, and I really like our chances the next 3 weeks.

The youth on this team matured alittle this week compared to last week. Given time and another recruiting class or two this will be an excellant football team!

I work with multiple UF and UA fans. Every effing year it is the same damn thing. Crap QB play, no third down defense, less talent, and abysmal special teams play.

But hey, they gave good effort. I can always rest on that when I get to work on Monday.

The really sad part is I don't even really get ribbed anymore. Now I get the "you guys played tough", "you're heading in the right direction" comments. It's sad and pathetic, and all the cheering about good effort doesn't help.

We expect TN to SHOW UP. FL is down(for first time in long time), NOW is the time to win!

I'm thinking you've been drinking too long today.....

Our talent level is NOT on par with UF. Add the we're so young (especially both lines), have a mediocre QB right now, in our third system in three years, and so thin you could see a candle flame through our depth at 2 miles and you've got what we've got.

I agree we had our opportunities, but mistakes happen and you should expect a lot this year. You don't win games just because historically we've been in the top tier of CFB.

Lay off the cough syrup.

Go Vols. I'm proud of you today. You played the whole way - hard and with good effort. If Poole doesn't loose the ball on the last long run, we had a punchers chance. But he was playing to win and I won't fault him on his effort.

Did anyone in your family live?
I don't think Dooley, Chaney or wilcox qualify to play for TN.

How come we never blitzed or even threatend to blitz the whole game? A young qb in a hostile environment and we do not attack? He just dropped back and patiently waited for a receiver to get open, the whole game.

It's like dawn of the dead on here - everyone turning on each other, and to think we all pull for the same team.It is a process, it takes time to get the right players to fit the new staffs system. Im pissed off because we lost, but it was clearly obvious that fla had more talent & depth.

we did blitz, but you can't do it to much or a good Coordinator will call screen to demps. you have to contain him and hope the front 4 can get pressure.

I agree. What happened to Wilcox's dynamic, scheming defense. There was no pressure.
