How do you guys feel?

I can tell you I think it really sucks that we gave up more points against bama than we ever have in history...

But I do have random moments of excitement about our team I haven’t felt in a while... and honestly I’m super proud of how loud our stadium was while down 28.. and how we fought .. a lot of things to be down about but somehow still optimistic .. maybe I’m being foolish but Pruitt has me thinking we’re doing something good

Well, the result was expected. I do think this team fought for 60 minutes. That’s a welcome sight.

Looking forward to the second half of the season. Think we string some wins together and surprise people.

Nothing in me is bitter or disappointed regarding this game... got what I thought would happen. Bama is just in a class by themselves... I cannot imaging them losing once this year. NC for sure.

I agree. It’s a weird spot to feel almost proud of a team that lost by that score... but I kinda am

I'm pretty disappointed in the continued over-all lack of discipline, and idiotic execution penalties on special teams. It's too late in the season to still be seeing that kind of garbage on a weekly basis.

I just hate seeing people comment that Pruitt shouldn’t have said what he said or this team wasn’t prepared to play....last week they went on the road and shut down auburn in the second half but when it comes to Bama it’s entirely the opposite narrative of Pruitt. This Alabama team has blown everyone out so far this year. I have no doubts that Pruitt is improving our program

That is what is chapping at Pruitt as well. Not sure at this juncture that gets fixed with the personnel on the field. But overall, he has enough talent to get Ws the rest of the way.

Is there an SEC win left in this bunch, I'm not sure, it could go either way, but this game was a big reminder of how bad they really are.
Gary Danielson said it, so it so it must be true

There is talent on the team just not enough. We don't have the horses to compete with the big dogs at this point. Juaun could play on any team in the league and I'm proud that he's on ours.

True, but we have some of biggest Sissy's in the SEC too

The team did some stupid things. That was disappointing.
But we cant hate on the 2 most crucial positions in this game: OL and secondary. Riddled with injuries there and thats why it became some bad.

Haha- so do you cheer for vols as a secondary team or just pay attention to the board?

By the way I lived in Tacoma for a while... the aroma is real

There is only one big dog in NCAA football. We played them today. Georgia, Ohio State, Texas, Oklahoma, LSU are not close to Bammers talent.

Ya I like the Vols. My ex and her family were all Vols so that’s where I got inaugurated.

No question it stinks in Tacoma. Thankfully I grew up on Lake Washington in Bellevue so we didn’t get the Everett/Tacoma stench
