Signature win?

[JonGrudensAgent]

Needed to break that streak in the worst way.

Auburn isnt bad so it gives everyone some hope for the stretch run after Bama.

Glad to see them put the game in the hands of Guarantano and the receivers. They aren't good enough to ram it down anyones throat.

Good adjustments in the bye week by the staff.

I was asking a serious question and you failed to answer that. I get that it is a big win but in the grand scheme of things signature wins mean nothing so I always wondered why coach worshipers get so wrapped up in them.

Just shut up and celebrate for 5 freaking minutes

 

[mackievol]

no way in hell Butch Jones wins that game.

 

[OldandStillaVol]

Happy for the team - players and coaches. Great win! Seeing your hard work pay off will build confidence and trust. Go Big Orange!

Signature we could debate, but it was a good win against a ranked SEC team on the road. We grew up today.

Maybe this win will take some of that "loser mentality" out of the picture. Should show the team to buy in to CJP's coaching.

Signature or not, it feels nice to beat a ranked opponent in their house. I'll take it. Go Vols

 

[Matt2496]

And Furthermore, we just beat Auburn, who beat a top 10 Washington team!

How the hell can you say that wasnt a signature win? Taking the team we had last year and getting it to beat a team that NOBODY thought we had a chance to beat at the beginning of the season? Snapping all kinds of streaks. Are you waiting for him to beat Bama before you call it anything special???

This was "change the whole direction of the program" kind of win.

 

[BigALWiLson]

Proud of our Vols today..... Congrats to Coach Pruitt and OUR boys. Feels good

 

[butchna]

This was one of the GUARANTEED LOSSES on our schedule. Signature win...tipping over a narrative...whatevs.

 

[Sara Clark]

Don't take anything away from our boys, they played a hell of a game, away game at that. GBO!

 

[Notorious B.E.N]

JENNINGS! CHANDLER! Even Kongbo and Warrior! JG! and Wolfy for that critical 3d down catch!

And Cimaglia, it's nice to have a kicker you can have confidence in again.

...and how many streaks did we break today. We finally...

* Beat Auburn
* Beat an SEC team
* Beat an SEC West team
* Beat a ranked team
* Beat a ranked team on the road
* Beat a team as a road underdog

Talk about how bad Auburn is all you want, I would have been thrilled with a 1 point home win over Arkansas today... This was huuuuge for the morale of this program!!!!!!!!!!!!

I’m not saying it’s not. Personally, I would categorize it as one. AU has issues and is trending the wrong direction for them, so I could see where someone might say it’s not. Regardless, it’s a great win today and definitely one that you build on.

 

[BallinVol]

This win at Auburn today is so much better than sex.

I can agree ... it's definitely better than last night ...

 

[hog88]

I hope this wasn’t his “signature” win.

 

[BowlBrother85]

Remember how flat we always looked coming off open dates under Butch? We actually improved our performance and looked like a team that has been working on new things in an off week. Imagine that...

 

[Cornvol]

This win at Auburn today is so much better than sex.

Uhhhh....blue font?

 

[Volfan2012]

Definitely a signature win. Auburn has wins over some good teams. We beat them on the road. Pruitt wins in the SEC against a ranked team signature for sure.

 

[nomads-11]

Yes, on the road no less.

 

[musolfmj]

Gutsy. Gritty. That's how I'll remember it.

 

[Remy]

I don't know what I just saw or where that has been all year, but that was Tennessee football.

Beating a ranked Auburn squad at Jordan-Hare while looking for a first SEC win in a while? Yep, I'd say that was old school Tennessee football.

 

[rocytop2624]

Washington and Peterson couldn't beat Auburn.

 

[Rudy123]

This win at Auburn today is so much better than sex.

You have not met my sex partner or you would think differently

 

[vol-un-tear]

Yyyugge win!!
