Crow supper being served for

This whole eating crow thing is so ridiculous. The team played like hot garbage for 3 games and 2 quarters and was justifiably roasted on VN for it. Butch turned it around in miraculous fashion in the 2nd half and the team came away with an incredible win, one that I hope everyone is enjoying thoroughly. I give Butch full credit for what happened yesterday and it might be a turning point for the program....might be. So you can keep your crow, OP.

Yeah, beating what is turning out to be a decent VaTech team by several touchdowns was a horrendous performance. I will agree this team hasn't looked awesome CONSISTENTLY so far, but come on.

The fact we were upset is because we expect and want our team to win. These guys think we want UT to fail when it is exactly the opposite. "NegaVols" for the most part are not happy with settling for being bad and want our team to be at the top where they belong. That disconnect among fans seems so weird.

NegaVols are just unhappy, regardless. They do not have the ability to evaluate progress when progress is being made and is obvious to rational beings.

Your posts are so erratic. Tell your DD to ease up on the potency.

I would be surprised if many 'own it'!
Go Big Orange!

I own nothing. The first 33 minutes we looked like runny ****. Just like we did the first 3 games. The second half team is who the negavols have been waiting on to show up. There was no evidence at half time Saturday afternoon that that team would show or even existed. Ergo the I told you so's can be held to a dull roar. I'm now HOPING that team shows up to whip GA's ass.

I'll own up to being wrong. Gladly.

However... I echo Fade's thoughts. The team was trash against App State, they were trash against VT and trash against Ohio. They were sleepwalking through the schedule and looked to have completely regressed. No focus, poor execution and playcalling was atrocious. This isn't Year 1 or 2 or 3. This is Year 4, folks. Azzani has been here all 4 years as has Mahoney. The inconsistencies at WR (drops, poor routes, poor blocks) and OL ... issues are squarely on them. 4 straight games now the team has started very slow and groggy. I put that squarely on the entire coaching staff.

Need we remind everyone Florida (with a 2nd string QB) had 300 yards at the half and Tennessee couldn't score from the 3 yard line with 4 chances?

Tennessee looked completely lost. Tennessee looked like it took not just 1 but 2-3 steps back from 2015. They got down on themselves with drops or miscues. That's not a good thing to see. If anyone needs a refresher... start looking at the game thread from around page 8... 12 is when it gets good (failed 4 downs after fumble recovery).

Then the team we all expected to see finally showed up. Getting down happens, look at Bama versus Ole Miss.

If anyone here was looking at the first 3 games and how we played through the first half and said "we got this, we're still in it" I honestly say they're lying.

Now. I'm happy the team we should have had all year finally showed up for 30 minutes. Until this staff proves that wasn't a drop in the bucket and they can crank out that sort of performance week-in-week-out ad not just intermittently, I'll be on board.

I'm not fully on board still. I'm happy with the win as it's been a very long 11 years and the last 20 have honestly sucked for us against them. However, I'm not any more optimistic about the year. We just got 30 minutes of what this talent is capable of.

F'ing this.

Guilty. I was getting my pitch fork ready at halftime. Wife had to remind me of last years GA game to calm me down.

Back on the fence and will make opinion on CBJ at years end, till then he's the HC of my Vols
