I believe Kiffin will make his mark once he gets his players in here.

I think Kiffin is doing a good job with what he has to work with. Nick Stephens is obviously worse that Jonathan Crompton. I mean would will you do if your best quarterbacks completes 80 % of his passes to the opposing teams ? Hell, I would run it to and keep the passes short. Once Kiffin players get in here, we will be great again !!!

We have no idea because Lane is so stubburn he won't give the kid a down.

I agree, but it's sure painful to watch right now.

Kiffin sucks, plain and simple. As it turns out, we've got the worst HC in the conference. Cheezit would have been a better hire.

Maybe Kiffin should give NS a chance, but if he has waited this long, there is obviously something that is making him hesitate to do so. And from what I've heard from people like Hardesty, Kiffin is all about competition and not about playing favorites. Maybe he actually knows something.

Tennessee's offense has kept improving every game IMO since UCLA. I can't stand Crompton but he actually pulled it together a little bit and almost led us to a win.

The bottom line is UT's offense was too little too late and our defense spent entirely too much time on the field. I think Kiffin's play calling was outstanding. Time and time again we had the right match ups but couldn't take advantage because of poor throws in the first half by Crompton. While I too am anxious to see what Stephens could do, I understand why Kiffin doesn't want to make a mid season change.

The bottom line is You have no idea what you're talking about and are ranting because of frustration. Watch tomorrow's replay and take a look at the film. I firmly believe that we are a quarterback and a couple receivers away from being outstanding. Look at it this way, if we had even a decent QB right now we could be undefeated.

He probably has sucked on something that you my friend will never have the pleasure of getting anywhere near.

Zip your pants back up if you can reach them.

Exactly, if we had a decent QB we would be at least 4-1. Instead we are 2-3, so why not give another QB a chance in a game. I see us beating Vandy, Kentucky, and Memphis and losing the rest. So another 5-7 season.

I think 7-5 with upsets over Georgia and Ole Miss

I'd say the reason we haven't/won't see NS is because if he comes in now and plays good, CLK will look VERY stupid. Auburn has no more talent than we do and they outcoached and outplayed us tonight.

This is true. I wouldn't mind seeing if Stephens was any better, but you have to think...after Kiffin has seen how bad Crompton is and still won't play + 2 coaching staffs letting Crompton start to begin the season...there has to be something to Crompton continuing to start.

Auburn has more talent than we do. And no, I don't believe that is the reason. Did you not here what Chaney said towards the beginning of the game. The announcers were talking about it. Something like, "People are saying play Nick, play Nick. Well, if Nick was in there they might be saying play Jon, play Jon."

Obviously Crompton is better.

I'll just say this, I bet CLK prays every night that JC doesn't get hurt. Because then he'd be forced to play NS. Then, IF, I know it's a big IF, NS played good, CLK would look like a fool. He's stubborn and he's playing for next year.

First of all, I think Kiffin would rather get some wins instead of looking like a genius. If he is sitting NS, there is probably a reason for it.

Also, Auburn has more talent than UT at the moment.
