The Official #21 Tennessee @ Kentucky Game Thread, 7:00 PM ET, ESPN

[DEFENDTHISHOUSE]

Out played, out coached. I dont think CJH can call plays fast enough for this offense.

Golesh is tremendously missed.

 

[Manning4ever]

How can we play so well on offense, and so bad on defense

 

[barney]

Our secondary has looked good this year because our front four or five have gotten pressure. None to be found tonight outside of one play. He has all day to throw and we are getting carved

I don't think thats the only issue. Missing Hadden a lot tonight. Doneiko is having an awful game.

 

[VOL_Lyfe]

Defense looked like hot garbage on that drive.

 

[DPMVOLS]

Making another horrible quarterback into a Heisman Trophy contender!! They are playing way too soft. I guess we are missing Hadden?

 

[orangerush]

d needs to get tough

That’s like telling Mickey Mouse to put up his dukes.

 

[vols 30]

Failing to score on the 1st drive this half is a killer

 

[dobre_shunka]

Back to back false starts is all I remember.

That's it and they are 14th in the conference in penalties

 

[Volbash98]

Why are they playing zone? Its not working!!!

 

[JoeMiltonsAgent]

I'm at a bar on the Washington Campus. I've had 4 hours sleep since Thursday, I look like shir but their isn't a Huskie in the bar that can take me.... Go Big Orange

Play like a champion and represent the Big Oramge Proud my son.

And Hydrate.

Always hydrate. That helps avoid a hangover more than anything.

 

[BJWeeks]

Where is Matthews, Gibson, and Conyer? If they can't see.the field with our current DBs then why were they even recruited

 

[chattavol420]

This defensive performance I honest to God would put right up there with South Carolina from last year. It’s so damn bad right now. If none of our defensive backs can stay with the receivers on any play… Why do we not just bring in the entire second team Defense and let them have a go? heupel or Banks need to get the whole first team defense together on the sideline and rip into them.

 

[TN1111]

We'll have morons on here tomorrow bragging about us stopping Kentuckys run game. Means nothing if you make the QB a Heisman candidate

 

[LowKey]

This man cannot be a part of our team next week.

 

[Clad in Big Orange]

We’re fine. No more points for KY.

 

[Go47]

This offensive possession may very be the game. Drive it / score / go up by 9 again . . . And we probably win.

FG or no score =likely loss

 

[rocketskates]

I’m not making excuses, the SEC definitely has something out for us. The officiating has been incredibly one sided the past few games.

 

[Volbrando]

Can we get a defensive staff and players next year

 

[joevols89]

Score a TD here or we are in trouble.

 

[MeanOrange]

Looking likely.

Might be even worse.

 

[Halph66]

Has Kentucky had any penalties?

2 false starts to Tennessee's 7. No holding calls on the cats at all

 

[Sudden Impact]

He definitely can’t cover anyone tonight since he’s out for the season.

we are giving them a 10 yard cushion

We’re both 5-2. Makes total sense but somehow we’re still ranked…

We won’t be ranked after this game. Secondary is going to give it away

 

[HighRockvol]

How can we play so well on offense, and so bad on defense

Always one or the other with us never a complete game

 

[GreyWolf1129]

Yeah, when Banks and Martinez are gone, there's a chance UT Football will be back.

Me too. No more good money on a bad team.

Go Vols.
