Northwestern is what 0 and 2. On the other hand I truly believe that we've been hiding some run game blocking schemes. I expect to see a much more involved H back next Saturday

Weisman played much better at center today than he did on the edge. It makes sense, I accidentally bumped into his mom after the game and nearly fell over.

Screw the negas, they're pretty much making this board unreadable because they want some drama.

we're 3-0, that's undefeated if you're not counting. And we'll be undefeated until we're not.

I think the oline has progressed and they want this win Saturday badly so they will come and play with a lot of intensity.

I believe we will see a very high energized team all over. If we lose it won't be because we don't have heart!

I think we pull out the W and increase to a 10 win streak.

Might add that NC team of '98 struggled with Syracuse, a weak AUBURN team and UAB. Three teams they should have blown away. 5* talent across the board back then but they won and when all said and done... Well, you know.

Just remember that they lost 10 key starters from last year. The top 3 WR and 3 on the Oline on offense.

OFFENSE: Dan Vitale-SB, Miles Shuler-WR, Christian Jones-WR, Cam Dickerson-WR, Geoff Mogus-OG, Matt Frazier-OG, Shane Mertz-OG

On Defense they lost 3 on the Dline along with a LB, CB, and Saftey.

DEFENSE: Deonte Gibson-DE, C.J. Robbins-DT, Dean Lowry-DE, Drew Smith-OLB, Nick Van Hoose-CB, Traveon Henry-S

They are projected to win only 6 games this year with hopes of a possible bowl. Looks like the loss of key players are hurting them more then expected. I doubt they go bowling.

Their team isn't who we played last year at all. Don't let the negative posters take that impressive win from this team.

I'm as optimistic as the product on the field allows me to be. I'm not going to be optimistic to the point of delusion in the face of the reality we see on the field each week. And I am not going to lower the bar for butch and just pretend that we didn't expect to be able to compete in the Sec this year.

If you don't like reading my posts feel free to use the ignore button, or abandon the thread; you don't get to determine what gets posted here based of whether or not it tarnishes your perception of butch Jones.

If you are as emotionally fragile as it seems, and reading contradictory opinions upsets you to the point of being miserable, maybe the Internet isn't for you?

Would like to add that Florida is putting together a pretty underwhelming effort against North Texas.

I got to bring my two oldest sons (5 and 3) to their first trip to Neyland to see the Vols play today. TN came out and scored a TD in the end zone we we're closest to immediately after kick off to start the game with a bang... and ultimately won.

Did I see some things that concerned me going into the FL game? Sure..... but nothing will take today's win away. That goes for me as well as the team.

Go pound sand Negas. And Go VOLS!!

There's nothing better then bringing your own kids to watch the game with you. The joy in their eyes magnifies the joy you have as a father and fan imo.

Some of you can say what you want to but when I see our true offense. Nobody can stop us. We have played ultra conservative. And, yes that's what I've seen.

We have problems at the offensive line and they need to step it up.

In no way have we played our best football. I heard a lot of people saying last Sunday that the game played today could be a trap game. And, in a lot of ways it was. Now it's time for people to step up and for us to play our best game and build from it.

I have no doubt in my mind that we will be ready to play Next week.

Op, I'm not very happy with where we are but not here to interject negativity. Just a quick word of advice.
Basically, the surest way to call an ___ hole is to ask them not to not show up and be one. It's like a bat signal to them.



Edit: suggested too late obviously lol.
