‘23 Recruiting Forum: Official UTSA Pregame/Game Thread

[Ashevolle]

I missed a good chunk of the game, but on the surface, seems like we played a much better game than we have the last two weeks aside from a slow start to the second half.

Team played well. UTSA switched QBs at the half and had some success early, but we adjusted fairly well and closed out strong. Some injuries, but hopefully just holding guys out for precaution to keep them healthy for USC.

I hope MSU does SCAR raw.

He also said UT fans believe Peyton Manning invented football and only talk about our players like they are special.

F*** that guy. Our dudes ARE special!

He was 100% being complimentary

Need to start putting complete games together next week. We have these long lapses and just go into a downward spiral on both sides of the ball. Can’t have that anymore going forward.

Also, we really need Joe to keep the football more on the read to make this offense more effective and I think it also makes him better throwing the football. Hope they will trust that happening with him being a little banged up.

Go big dam naranje!

Not a fan of their new offensive philosophy. Its a whole 180 from last year, i dont think their hc will be there long

 

[InVOLuntary]

Good win for the Vols. That team was better than many think. Still bunches of issues but baby steps. The real season starts now.

 

[knoxvol52]

It's not the S.C. game I would be worried about...this team will be so damn intent on revenge from last season I see them refusing to lose.... the A&M game gives me a little more doubt...but they play Bama at home during Tennessee bye week...so either you will face a team on cloud nine after beating Bama or a team licking their wounds after losing to Bama..jmo.....

#Vols coach Josh Heupel on center Cooper Mays missing a fourth consecutive game to open the season: We’ll see [next week]. End of the day, he didn’t feel like he could go today.

Not looking good currently

 

[FollowTheLeader]

They really do at times

And so does the offense.....at times.

offf course.

Our administration needs to point some things out out publicly.

They can't publicly or face sanctions. They CAN file an official grievance to the SEC office which could be accessed via freedom of information act.

His accuracy took a huge dip after his knee got pretzeled hopefully it was a minor muscle strain and not a knee sprain or worse. Knock on wood. Need him throwing like he was before that next week. If he throws like he did after he got hurt then we’ll be in trouble.

It is reminiscent of 2021. It seemed like we came out like gang busters and would look like we were going to run teams out of the stadium. Then we would go on a quarter or two long drought before getting it back together. That was the difference in that 2021 team being 7-6 or 10-3 or even 11-2.

 

[reVOLution33]

Going to let some demons out, but inconsistency will still bother us. Defense comes out swinging.

UT - 45
UTSA - 13

Very close.

Not sure what happened as I couldn’t watch lol.

I regret making this. Nico was warming up when it looked like Joe was hurt. I know you would never hope anyone gets hurt.

You and I both know he wont say anything about it, if he does it will be complete coach speak

I don't think sec is subject to FOIA laws

No they’re absolutely not lol

You are probably right, but that is pretty much the only way anyone outside of the university athletic department will ever hear what the official way the staff feels about the poor officiating we have seen so far.

 

[Orange.]

The Knoxville media would make the case with abundant evidence, if they supported the team.
