There should be no complaining after a nice Missouri win this week. The team generally look good. There always things to improve but the complainers need to take the week off, learn to relax and enjoy we did more than was expected and we are playing the type of Tennessee football most of us thing Tennessee football is.

No game is perfect and talking about deficiencies and how we can play even better is just part of being fans. Pruitt made a point to say how we need to improve, both in his comments at halftime and after the game. Guarantano did the same post-game. Very happy with the win. Thrilled that we are starting to look like Tennessee again. Looking forward to all the discussions this week as we get ready for UGA.

JG did his first SEC game with 3 TDs. I thought all 3 were rushing but it says 2 from ESPN. Matched his highest for TDs in a game I think and a high for rushing. More running from him helped. He looked even better than last week but still a couple he threw downfield that stalled the drive early on (shouldn’t have been done back to back regardless, one probably should’ve been a run). If he keeps improving, there’s no reason to put anyone else in. He looked somewhat like his old self against SC and got better this week. Hope he keeps getting better and makes more runs when there’s nothing there.

Majority of the team looked better, except for automaglia. Then again Pruitt said special teams lost a lot of practice I think earlier this year.

A non-Vandy, non-UK SEC opponent, yet the game was literally never in doubt. All of any of our complaining was really because we always want to win by 500, but a 35-12 blowout? Hell yeah we ought to take it and be more than glad. Over 200 rush yards, too? And one defensive TD given up? Very great game.

From a strictly emotional pt of view as a rabid fan, lots today to feel good about: Cade Mays playing, solid OL play, JG didnt f up, managed game well, fun to see Hyatt catch one, led all the way, never feared we would lose, we beat the spread, we're starting season 2-0 for a change. A good day all around.

It was a good performance for the complete team. JG, running backs, receivers and the OL did a really good job.

I would like to have seen a little more pressure on the QB, but the second QB was good player.

I thought the defense looked fast getting to the ball and for the most part looked good.

I think the secondary and the LB's pass defense still needs some work. However, there was a nice interception.

Next week will be a challenge, but if the team plays to their potential we can win!

I was so proud of our team today! Great win!! JG and offense played smart and tough and OL WAS SOLID! Defense also had some nice plays!! Also, Florida did not look that good against South Carolina either. I’m tired of hearing how good they are!! Looking forward to seeing how Georgia does vs Auburn and how Kentucky does against Kiffin!! GO VOLS!!!

Overall I would say it was a good performance and complaints would be nitpicking. One thing I don’t say often is that JG was solid for the most part and I would like to say that more often than I have in the past.

Pass rush was lacking. Outside of that, it was nice to cruise into a victory.

No it wasn't. Mizzou's got a very good young QB that could feel it out and break when needed. Without his awareness we're looking at a 4-5 sack game which is incredible. Instead many of those ended up being 1-yard QB 'runs'.

Yeah he would get flushed out after sitting in the pocket for 5-6 seconds. Thats more due to the good coverage in the secondary.

When we get Shamburger back it will make a huge difference.

Hats off to Mizzou QB, he looks like Drew Lock II. Although he also had some lucky throws and a couple of ints dropped by our secondary.
