Depth. More than anything we need depth. Really disappointed in our OL though, all those guys are too recruits, no excuse to get pushed around by Pitt.

Our first string needs to be good before we worry about depth

 

[BisonVol]

Banks, Theo, Alontae, & Darnell Wright are very good. So proud of those guys.

Taylor took some bad angles today I thought. Agree on the rest. Theo and Banks look like completely different players.

We are with vandy in the basement of the SEC

We're better than Vandy but that's about it

 

[***RoadVol***]

Darnell had a couple of bad penalties, but after them, he played well.

He completely whiffed on some run blocks today.

 

[TennSam]

I agree. Also, I don't know how anyone can post during the game. I'm mad at everyone during the game and it's way to easy to go really negative.

I question the play calling.All those overthrown balls by Milton and they kept going to the long ball.The one when Hyatt got injured was spot on but overall I thought Hooker was by far the better of the two.I guess we’re not going to get to see what Bailey can do.

We should have beat Pitt. Anyone arguing that doesn’t know football. We were up 10-0 early. Missed wide open throws for TDs. Not good.

I don't know that anyone is disagreeing with you.

Hard watching QBs connect on deep passes.

 

[Johnny Majors' Ghost]

"Carry the fight to Pittsburgh and keep it there for 60 minutes." That happened today. This team did not quit. Heupel and his staff can scheme, coach, and motivate. Once the QB position is settled wins will come and recruiting will improve. The future of Tennessee football is in good hands.

After calming down and thinking it over, I’m 100% convinced we run Pitt out of their own stadium next year..

Thats not saying much

P.S. - Sometimes the best medicine is tough love. Don't let his condition stop you from holding him responsible. He needs to take some control over this. It'll help him in the long run.

I know and I'm kinda torn on this. He's had a ton of falls and fell again just a minute ago. I want him to be able to do more but I'm terrified to let him do too much. He's had a ton of muscle atrophy. I'm afraid he's gonna break something. We already have a hole in the wall from a fall where his head went through.

 

[NMVol]

It went about how I really thought it would, but I was engaged watching it until the end, unlike anything I saw from last years games. I think if we ever figure out the frigging QB position, we might have something.

Give the fans the plug 'n play quarterback that they want!!

I wish sports outcomes didn't crush my weekends

Fine… we’ll just lose and suck forever.. sack up

Go be miserable to your wife if you even have one. Jesus guy

 

[SSVol]

No. He's a voice crying in the wilderness. None of us get it. And if he says the same thing 10 more times, maybe we will.

 

[Catbone]

Watching other games is hard when we lose

I literally can't do it. It hurts too much lol

 

[GoBigOrange86]

Don’t let it. Why should it crush your weekend? You’ve said all along we’d struggle to get to 6 wins. This is what you expected.

 

[mr.checkerboards]

Didnt say that, but thats like bragging about beating Kentucky. They had one good player and he isnt gonna be there. I would hope theyd win

 

[Smokey123]

We are playing close games with a middle of the road ACC team. We are close to dead.

They’ll win 9 or 10 games this year. They have the best defense we’ll see outside of Bama and Uga

Not miserable at all, actually pretty happy with where I am now, Just real

 

[SSVol]

Dude, none of this matters. It's a game.

 

[Brillovol]

Literally held the cat up like Rafiki after the catch.

 

[KPT_VFL]

Exactly, once again, we lost another winnable game.

I’m with you. We desperately need a QB.
