You just pointed out the biggest difference between coaches and fans. Coaches jobs are to correct mistakes and develop players. Fans are there to support the team, not be a part of the team. People seem to forget that.I hope coaches don’t point out what needs fixing in practice because they will be negative and not true coaches. Fans aren’t allowed to observe or have expectations either
We just don't have a lot of talent on that side of the ball. No offense to the kid, but when you have to start a player like Flowers, you're really limited in what you can do. We've got some younger players who will be much better, but until they're ready, we'll have to get used to our corners playing 10 yards off the ball and our safety Flowers getting trucked on a regular basis. Having said that, if we can improve our angles and wrapping up, it would help immensely.This was the game where I hoped the defense would take a step up.
They didn't.....
Agreed. I definitely don't mean to knock them. They play hard, but they have a ways to go and need better talent..We just don't have a lot of talent on that side of the ball.

But we did win. This is next step to get this program where we'd all like to see. I can't remember the last game v them that I expected to win, as opposed to think " I hope we win".....enjoy being 4-0.Won't always be the case. Defense has got to get better. That's embarrassing....AR threw for 453 yards, and y'all are like, we won.
Tenn doesn't need to be the '85 Bears just a serviceable defense, tonight was a train wreck 95% of the game. Too many 3rd & 4th and long conversions, poor coverage/tackling, and very little QB pressure.
The Gators were backed up deep on 3rd and long and ran for the first down…. right after that in the same drive Richardson should have been called for international grounding but wasn’t… either stop and the Vols would have gashed them and gone up BIGWe were rolling when the TE fumbled. We were rolling again when the TE dropped a 1st down. It should have and could have been much worse for them
LOL. I am so f'n happy. Do somethin about it if you don't like it. And you know what else? Some years FL just beat us by 1 pt, 2 pts, 1 Td ... but nobody remembers anything but a w for them, L for us. But this year ... the other way round. Damn right I'm happy. Bec mon chou.We lucked up and beat them. That was a piss poo performance. No one should be happy, we should expect more. The bar should be higher.
International grounding sounds like a serious penaltyThe Gators were backed up deep on 3rd and long and ran for the first down…. right after that in the same drive Richardson should have been called for international grounding but wasn’t… either stop and the Vols would have gashed them and gone up BIG
