The Official #11/#9 Tennessee @ Florida Game Thread, 7:00 PM ET, ESPN

[Gladiator1]

Wyoming is moving the ball on Texas but we can't move it on Florida?

 

[Lars]

13 didn't even try to tackle on that score....

Looked like he was swatting at a mosquito.

 

[Zues1]

Dude, Joe can't make throws. That wont even let him throw anything inside the numbers

So I imagined all that first scoring drive ?

 

[TN1111]

Banks is just not a good DC.. Martinez is trash. Whole Defensive staff needs to go.. You can't win anything with that type of play.

This. The standing in zone on 3rd down has been his goto.... that's why we're piss poor on 3rd, year after year. Yes, we need more talent, but that's not the main issue

 

[Jimmyandjoes]

We're getting manhandled on both sides of the ball

 

[Hairy Vols]

Take off the Orange colored glasses. This team is who they looked like vs. Austin peay.

My man is calling for our coaches job. I’m fine. But to even suggest firing a coach after one half of football is a bit of an emotional statement. I just don’t get it.

 

[orange_glory]

Lots of "we lost" posters here, who haven't seen Tennessee @ Notre Dame 1991.

Majors had some fight in him.

 

[PC Jr.]

Milton will make a career at County fairs and local picnics hosting orange throwing contests. “Pay $10 to see if you can throw an orange further than VFL Joe Milton, University of Tennessee of Quarterback 2022-2023.”

 

[SlyStone]

This could get very ugly.

Ahh... love my Vols, but have zero confidence this team can do a Notre Dame type comeback in the 2nd half against these Gators. Hope I'm wrong.

 

[Megatron88]

I don’t know if we want Nico playing behind this line.

That's a negative !

 

[saxvol]

But does coach do the hard decision and bench his ass? Or does he keep him in?

I think Heup has lost faith in Joe, He stopped letting him throw it down field same as with Austin Pea, and the way he was burning up the clock before the half of this game. I would be shocked to see Joe come on the field in the 2nd half.

 

[basspond]

Edit

 

[Voldawg1970]

Smartest person on the team!!! Mayes!!!! Ride that injury as long as you can!!!!

 

[alavolfan]

You put him in this game, behind that line, good chance he ends up at UF Hospital

And you could destroy his confidence beyond repair when you need him to be the guy starting next year

Gotta do something. It’s gonna be 60-7 if we don’t. Nico might as well start learning how to play in the SEC.

 

[ALLVOL 4LIFE]

We just need to come out and hit them in the mouth. That’s what they did to us. They pushing us around. Never thought this would happen

 

[VolDave53]

Bowling Green taking it to Missagain.

 

[tnvols72]

Nico will hit the portal soon. Tennessee has more problems than qb.

I think so to

 

[VOL_Lyfe]

I don’t know if we want Nico playing behind this line.

Might as well get something out of him before he transfers

 

[cobbwebb0710]

I'm afraid it's too late. The hole is likely too deep. Might as well leave him in. It wouldn't do anything for Nico's confidence at this point.

Unless he balls out.

 

[VFL28]

Guys we’re just being vanilla. We’re REALLY gonna open up the playbook NEXT week!!

We are saving our real playbook for the powerhouse opponent UTSA next week.......

 

[VolForLife83]

whats the over and under on how many predictable screen calls the offense will run in the second half

Depends on if they can get a first down. Hell, we can't even begin a series without a penalty

 

[HighRockvol]

We have never did this to Florida they do it to us at will even with there worst ****ing teams

 

[Dergibvol]

Perhaps I’m too frustrated and missed it but I think this would have been the time to see if mixing in Sampson would have helped. Has he been in yet?

Sampson had one play I believe. Yes of wright is out due to needing a breather Sampson should be next man up. Keep small out

 

[volfan__18]

this is crazy. never expected this. just horrible playing overall.

 

[BJSforVols]

Disagree. Milton cannot see the field and the WRs are not getting open. Don't think it's an O-Line and time issue. We have to get rid of the ball quicker.
