We lost. It sucks. I'm FURIOUS too, but please don't let your anger spill over onto the board through flames and restricted profanity. We're family, and family sticks together.

agreed. we had the game in the bag. i'm as sick as i've ever been considering that we should have put it away and didn't. but the way we played and the way we have played, let's enjoy the fact that we're still going to be 4-1(unless major fallouts happen) heading into the georgia game.

that isn't anything to be ashamed of considering what some people thought we'd do this year. that doesn't mean this loss is acceptable. i personally would have preferred getting dominated than giving the game away like that, but oh well.

Actually, I'm quite proud of the Vols. They played their hearts out. We will be competive in every game we play this year. I'm optimistic good things will happen the rest of the year.

I'm with LIO. GO VOLS!!

proud? 10 yards rushing makes you proud? we were lucky to even be in this game from start to finish. the game wasn't as close as the scoreboard showed.

No. Let me correct you there. That's 2 yards rushing. 10 yards rushing? Dare to dream!

This is the current problem with UT football. We have ENTIRELY TOO MANY FANS that are content with being competitive. Only losers are content with being competitive.

Please tell me why, oh why did we play not to lose. We could have played to win and put it away. I don't know that I have ever been so down. A blow out would have been one thing, but this, just doesn't feel right.

Hopefully the Vols will take the loss the way Cal did and correct some things.

They have to run and, as much as I love the Frogg story, the center can't be knocked back on every play. He was. They covered him and reestablished the LOS one yard deep on every play. You can't hope to run like that.

it was a tuff loss for the faithful and true Volunteers of Tennessee, But we don't hang the season on one close loss, this game could have been won with just a few more players and coaches giving the 110% the entire game. We have to have an atttitude to finish them off when we have them down, We don't play any teams that are quitters and we need to keep putting the points on the board and if it works don't change it in mid stream. The coaches will learn from these mistakes and you will see a different team next game or two. JUST WATCH......

We were not competetive last year. Florida this year has a better team to put on the field ,thanks to our injuries and our nil recruiting class of 2005. Their RB's were superior, their DL was tremendous and their return game is better. Be realistic guys did ethink we had the talent to contend for the National championship. A 9-3 year would exceed expections.

What game were you watching??????????

We could have and SHOULD have won this game. I was NOT proud of the low rushing yardage, and believe me, it WILL come back to bite us AGAIN if we don't fix it. But to say we were LUCKY to be in the game..............?!

We WERE IN this game. We held them at critical times, just not ALL the critical times. We need work there too. We had chances, but we didn't always capitalize on them. We made lots of big plays, but so did they. It was a pretty good game between two good teams.

I would much rather have a win than a loss, but I would rather lose a close one fighting my heart out, than not being in it, and if you can't see that we were in it, then you need to watch lacrosse or jai lai, and leave Tennessee football to the real fans.

when you have 2 total yards rushing, you shouldn't have a chance to win games. i don't see how the game was as close as it was. enough said.
