Milton is coming.

 

[YankeeVol]

Or before

Nah. Unless Hooker gets hurt or becomes ineffective

 

[ItchyVols]

Remember too, if he had challenged that pick in the end zone.. they’d be stuck at 0 still

 

[TNHopeful505]

Hmm...I think we need 2 more TDs.

 

[ButchPlz]

Hype is 100% running the score up. I love it.

Good.

 

[HuntlandVolinColo]

Tennessee is now the Team that will roll out the backup QB and absolutely whip that Arse!

 

[GhostVol]

What was the spread?

45? 45 1/2?

Something like that

 

[DaddyChad]

Milton. He will be our QB next year. His one negative was not having touch. He now has touch.

Not really. I mean touch definitely was an issue but his decision making and execution when the game is tight is the issue. I hope no one thinks I’m taking anything away from what he’s done tonight but we need to see him perform in a competitive game.

I almost want to think that Milton has had some coaching, and has improved.

 

[Carp]

Did you watch the games last year? I didn't say he wasn't improved, but this is Akron. His other passes were against Ball State.

He was missing wide open passes against Bowling Green last year.

In any matter, you say you're looking for consistency. Well he's showing it. You can't knock a guy for consistency when he's being consistent.

You just want to hate him. You do you. Milton just gonna ball out

 

[Gandalf]

Dear Lord, the bookies may stop offering an over/under number on these game lol

 

[TheVolsFrog]

Showing Milton on the sideline giving props to all the guys...he's gonna be the started and Cap next year

 

[volinbama82]

At least the announcers aren't talking about ice cream sandwiches this week.

THIS

 

[sona]

If Milton ever went full "The Longest Yard", I think he could kill an opposing player with the ball.

 

[HuntlandVolinColo]

Did you ever see the movie Trading Places?

Milton be like Hendon stop the overthrows!

 

[RavinDave]

Hype is 100% running the score up. I love it.

No mercy!

 

[ItchyVols]

That dude just hung up there for a minute lol

 

[Voltopia]

Not gonna lie - people anointing Joe Milton as the future based on a few plays against Akron - the same Akron that UT is ahead of by 53 right now - is kind of funny. I respect the kid’s heart but c’mon now.

Exactly. He was overthrowing everyone. His touch is spectacular now.

 

[GoVolunteers]

I think we see Tayven Jackson soon

The body of work is very intriguing. But if that cat runs out of bounds again....

Really would like to see the guy be successful, seems like a really good guy.
