OMG! How did our boys in orange pull that one off? That type of game is defintly not good for my heart:eek:hmy:

I just knew we were going to find a way to lose with the way our secondary was playing.

I felt like barfing when Ainge threw that INT in the Second OT.

WOW WHAT a GAME!

I don't know, but our Vols got it done. Speaking of our secondary, how many times was Willingham burned today?

yeah I gave up and let disappointment set in 4 times, I think.

Secondary has LOTS of work to do. They just looked lost, especially in OT.

I don't know, Too many for sure but he's bad, and if LSU was watching you know they are going to go after him.

What a game, what a game. Instant classic. These guys never died, they were wounded, but came through. What a great win and what a great game.

GO VOLS!!!!!!!

with flynn playing, anything is possible. but our secondary got scorched today in the 2nd half and overtime. and i still think they have a tendency to play too far off the ball. this needs to be addressed before the championship game.

Kentucky spread us out. We clearly are having trouble defending that. We only had five healthy db's before this game. Now it looks more like four ouch. Gutty stand at the end though this team has some grit if anything else.

I can't believe it either. We were looking at plane tix to Atl at halftime and it was starting to look like a very boring weekend in the 2nd half.

This was the reason that I thought we would lose 35-31. I told my brother this last night, and looked at him during the game and said "what'd I say? 35-31 UK?" when it was 31-28 and UK at the 2 yd line.

I was shocked that we were able to come out 24-7 in the first half, but we could have had more, 30-7 is a conservative estimate. UK tried running too much in the 1st half. The way to beat Tennessee is to spread out 4 or 5 wide and find the open man. UK did this very effectively in the 2nd half. This game reminded me A LOT of the South Carolina game.

Yes, we're very fortunate to win. But, it's a win period. I'll see you in Atlanta. :dance2:

How about all the dropped balls in the second half that would have gone for first downs, and we drop 3 picks.

I still can't believe we won

I assumed the game was over in overtime when Ainge got picked. The field goal block was unbelievable.

UT really needs vinson for the lsu game. eric berry may be the best player on the entire defense. for a true freshmen he is awesome.

Willingham got torched. I don't know that vinson is that much better. I do know we lay off receivers way to much.

2 weeks in a row this team has just found a way to win, no matter what it takes.

When was the last time we blocked a FG by the way, I've been trying to think when I saw one last and I can't remember one at all

I also could have killed Ricardo Kemp for sliding after he made that pick with about 4 minutes left in the game. Be an athlete and SCORE!!

At the time it made since for him to slide, though. We were up by 3, 4 min. left on their side of the field. Surely our offense can grind out some clock at least, right? Nope, 3 and out as I recall.

But you are right, he should have looked for the big play. Had he known we would have to go to 4 overtimes and nearly lose probably a dozen times because we didn't put them away there, he wouldn't have slid.
