I'm no expert but... Devil's Advocate...When some of us went and ate at Billy Ratliff’s restaurant in Powell after the Pitt game, he told us the exact same thing. He said the WR group is what is hurting us the most right now. Said Joe is throwing to a spot that the WR is supposed to be on his route, and none of our guys are getting there, so it looks like Joe is always overthrowing it, when in reality the WRs aren’t getting to the spot they should be consistently. If this is true, then Joe is no doubt QB1 because he gives this offense the best chance to blow the top off if he can start connecting on the deep ball.
I’m not saying Burns is doing a good or bad job but the open receivers has a lot to do with the scheme we run and forcing teams to cover from sideline to sideline.
Even better than taking my girls to the game yesterday was having the privilege of baptizing them this am. Proudest moment of being a dad.

Well everyone is worried about recruiting and I’ve gotten caught up in the star gazing in the past, but for all the five stars we have gotten, I barely remember any of them being that great. It’s clearly not worked very well for us so I’m just gonna see how it plays out, even if it requires lower recruiting rankings and being a little less excited for the next big name coming in.
Don’t disagree but I’m tired of fretting over it so many years. We have had a star studded O-line for several years now and they have sucked the whole time. I’m hoping for top 25 recruiting this year and hopefully improve as our record improved. We just aren’t gonna recruit like we want until we get some wins.Stars matter and it really isn’t debatable

I’ll probably watch the game. If the last 10 years of football has done anything to me, it’s corrected my priorities. I don’t let losses ruin my weekend anymore. I’ll get mad during the game and then move on pretty quickly.So what are you guys doing Saturday instead of watching the game? I think a nice hike in Big South Fork is in order.
Don't do this @Bassmaster_Vol . It all depends on our OL and QB play. We've been kicked in the marbles so many times against the gators. That is 1 day out of the year where I feel like @Catbone .Vols win on last second FG in the swamp
