Okay I'm not on this board much and this was my first trip up for the "Kiffin Era" but the thing that got me the most is the Vols not making the entire "Vol Walk" from the dorm to the dressing room. Is this a new change by the coach? I know players that have graduated from the T that believed that was one of the best things about game day at home. Walking thru the long line, getting high fives and hand shakes and some being recognized by the thousands of their fans that show up every home game to cheer them on.I noticed now with that shortened walk it's so crowded that a lot of the kids and fans can't even get close. Maybe the new coach is trying to save their energy. Maybe he"s afraid to walk that far. I don't know exactly what the reasoning is but it sure seems to have taken a lot of game day tradition on the hill. Just an old school Vol fan.

It does seem much more crowded, which makes sense given the shortened path. It's very tough to get close to the players and coaches without waiting for an hour beforehand or being pushy and rude.

Man, if only the vol walk was a little longer, and Kiffin hadn't have changed his shirt, we would have won.

My complaints:

1) Why did we never see the Wildcat again after the first play?
2) Why did we come out throwing after Nuke's long run? We had the momentum. Everyone was excited, and we sucked the life out of Neyland by throwing it and scoring 0.

I care a lot less about the length of the pregame.

maybe kiffin knew his defense was going to be on the field all night because our offense has mastered the art of the 3 and out so he wanted to save their legs. And seriously this is your take. I don't know how you managed to sit through the whole game with all your frustration over the length of our vol walk. what's your take on our offense.

was our Power T a little crooked to you?
Did the band hit all of their notes?
did the cheerleaders leave it all on the field?
did smokey sound like he had a sore throat?
how were the concession vendors, did they hit every row with confidence?
i think hardesty shaved his mohawk, how did you feel about that?

Just MY Take:clapping:

Nice. Attack the guy because he gave his opinion on a change in pregame.

Its amazing how when things aren't going well everyone can find something irrelevant to complain about. I caught part of the Locker Room tonight where they were addressing someone's apparent complaint about Eric Berry pointing into the air after he makes a play. I know these are just opinions, but I mean come on. The fans need to continue to do their part and leave the rest to the players and staff. On the Kiffin show, Lane said our fans were 5-0 this year. I wouldn't give us that much credit if I were him.

We have a depleted OL with our best runblocker out and you've got to think Auburn isn't happy about giving up a huge run. They're looking for it now.

True, but I figured we had no chance of winning by throwing the ball. Our OL seemed to blow them off the line whenever we had the mpmentum (which was not very often).
