Everyone is crying about the offence....

34 points should win the game against almost any opponent. Sure. It was a bad call. But you can't beat anyone in any league with a D giving up 41 points. We'll settle in on a QB. It's not going to be a "heisman" situation no matter who we settle in on. But it may be a team that can consistently score 30+ points. Get that D under control. It's our first year with this coach after being decimated. Note sure what all the "homers" thought was going to happen by game 2 with a new coach, but they clearly drank their own orange kool aid. Settle down.

The D held up OK in my opinion considering how many times Pitt started on their own side of the field.

 

[Other_Guy]

The defense wasn't as bad as the score indicated IMO

Offense had 3 turnovers....

That resulted in 14 points for them.

Banks is responsible for 10 points…134 yds in penalties, this team has zero discipline.

We played a pretty good team today. The difference was consistent qb play. I like what the coaches are doing its just not happening over night

A lot of the issue was the terrible position that the O kept putting the D in. Yes the passing D, especially over the middle was really soft.

If we has their QB. We would win 6 or 7 games this season. We may get 5 if we can beat south carolina

Not....going.....to....be....that.....guy.

Add that with poor execution on offense and that's the game. 1st quarter alone we should have been up 21-0

I think outside of a couple of guys/plays, this team is way more disciplined than any team we saw under Pruitt.

I hope they can coach up aQB

I think the D played better than score would indicate. Of those 41 Pitt scored 27 of them came in the 2nd q alone. Milton over threw 2 receivers for TD’s in the first quarter snd Hyatt dropped a TD pass. If Hooker is in I think 2 of those 3 are TD’s at least. I am more concerned with the 13 penalties we had today mroe than anything right now. We are gonna be fine snd I think we can still get to 7 or 8 wins this year with Hooker at QB

Ok

Offense. Welcome to America mate.

It's just going to take time unfortunately

 

[Rylee_Vol18]

Our d wasn't the problem today

 

[HiltonHeadVol]

Banks Defense played absolutely well enough to win today. Not well enough to overcome 3 turnovers and a give-back kick return for a touchdown called back. Plus a buglary spot on Hookers run to the 2 yard line late in the game.

 

[LittleVol]

Our d wasn't the problem today

They had good moments and bad moments.
We had many problems today. Some of them was the defense losing composure.

They were dying as the offense was dying.
Hooker came in and gave us a chance.

Otherwise the defense would have given up 55...

 

[TnVol!]

Turnovers, penalties, and a terrible spot call. Milton is not the answer. The effort given by this team was outstanding. Truly should have won the game. I am a Vol for life.

Play Harrison Bailey!!!!

 

[The Original Fade]

Offense. Welcome to America mate.

America, mate.

 

[LivinginthePast]

What do you expect. Tennessee is not a good football team. Doesn’t matter who the coach or qb is apparently. Same old stuff

 

[Notorious B.E.N]

I was pretty pleased with the defense today. Would have been happier with a stop on the last drive but oh well.

 

[Keefus]

Play Harrison Bailey!!!!

Totally agree

it always does at UT
