The Official #15 Tennessee vs. Akron Game Thread, 7:00 PM ET, ESPN+/SEC Network+

Think they have higher admission standards and know the coursework would be tougher than a lot of places.

Could be the case. Thank you

 

[The Tall Gguy]

We’re tickled. I think everyone went into the game hoping for injuries. Some of our fans are so damn dumb

I'd gladly lose this game to keep Small and Tillman healthy for games that matter

 

[ItchyVols]

We have ourselves a real coach

I hope you’re right… but it’s Akron …

 

[GoVolunteers]

I love Josh Heupel interviews… doesn’t take the bait and always wants to push the team.

 

[MeanOrange]

Like what JH said about working on the pass rush - needs work.

 

[KeyVol14]

Huepel said he thinks Tillman and small are fine

 

[GhostVol]

How on earth Tech doesent take in all the talent in Georgia doesent want and be at minimum respectable is beyond me

GA Tech is an engineering school and is quite picky about who they take, actually.

 

[volinbama82]

I bet Auburn wishes they had one of these MAC QBs

You all cannot underestimate the absolute unmitigated landfill fire that is Auburn athletics and their boosters. It will take a worse and longer run than we’ve had to get that mess fixed.

 

[THEONLYTENISEE]

Irons will be like playing against Richardson.

Academics might be a factor.

 

[Dudleys87]

Who was it that said Mel Tucker wasn’t that good?

How on earth are they getting blanked by Washington?

"Needs work" is a bit of an understatement.....

 

[J C Higgins]

Didn't see the Tillman injury. Play was described as pass being too high.
Question: Was Tillman weight bearing when he was hit or was he in the air?

 

[patrick]

Can’t really ask for much more than that with this opponent.

 

[Johnnyreb#VFL]

Heupel was ticked during half time interview. Akron keeps cheap shotting our players. Hurt small and Tillman and hit Hooker hard in the knees too a little before half

 

[VolDave53]

Box score at half.

GOOD

22-0 Huskies on top of the Spartans

I got accepted but bailed on going there. Didn't think I was equipped for ATL as a young lad.

He is fine. Walked off on his own without help. TN correctly shut him down after that play. He had tweaked the knee in the previous series also.

In the air.

 

[WestTennesseeVol]

I’m liking our chances against LSU, they’re struggling with Miss State

Is any young person? ATL can get pretty wild

I thought there was a 2 question limit and I think she snuck in a 3rd question. I could be wrong but I believe he was polite but not happy with that.

Defender dove low at his knees
