The Official #22/#17 Tennessee vs. East Tennessee State Game Thread, 3:30 PM ET, ESPN+/SEC Network+

[joevol33]

First really bad decision by Joey.

Bench him!

 

[SCRocket]

Yeah we are in delay right now, so I’m watching you guys.

Weather?

 

[PC Jr.]

Starters have lost focus. Seriously, that was so sloppy. Why do this when things have gone so well??? What does keeping the 1s in prove? Is there some incentive to go up be 48 in the first half? Now, they scored instead.

Back in the early 80s I was in high school working part time at our local radio station. I would come in on Saturdays during football season when we would "split the station" (different broadcasts on AM and FM sides, instead of simulcasting). I would handle the feed from the Tennessee Radio Network and broadcast the football game in the AM side.

I got paid to listen to John Ward calling Tennessee football.

A better gig there isn’t

 

[ttocswob]

wtf does that have to do with Joey

That’s all on the center. Had a bad snap last week, and a couple of near misses IIRC.

 

[TheVolsFrog]

Welp now Hype can drill it into JA to just fall on it, better here than next week in a close game

 

[LadyVolette]

These lousy announcers need to hang it up on trying to pump up ETSU. They’re gettin’ their asses kicked. There’s no spinning that

I am convinced it’s some type of sports manners or something lol.. they always sing the praises of the other teams we play, I think it’s to be nice.. they probably do this every game there is a disparity or theres not much else to talk about ie remember the fixation on ice cream sandwiches by the announcers one game ? Lol

 

[MDsweetT]

2 minute drill. Last drive I’d imagine for the starters. Let’s go boys regroup

 

[Bryan1]

Guess refs have stopped calling holding on ETSU

Also thought on that fumble we were not set and should have been false start

I didn't notice the false start but it was a bad snap.

Opportunity to run a 2 minute drill

 

[OrangeSquid]

Welp, just LOL!

 

[molsen81]

Kiffin and Ole Miss are playing too tight

 

[G0V0LS33]

That was a hate crime holding on the goal line

 

[My VOLS are huge]

 

[rocketskates]

Bro Georgia always does that against lesser opponents especially early in the season. They will be ready and dialed in for us next saturday i guarantee

Every year. They literally go straight vanilla against cupcakes. Good defense and run up the gut. It’s very deceiving.

 

[KeyVol14]

Good job making something out of nothing. Wasn’t even where he intended to throw and lucked out when Matthew’s was able to snag it. With that being said, decisions like that will most definitely result in his fair share of picks in sec play. I guess you have to take the good with the bad. I’d rather have a baller than someone scared to make a play. I am preparing myself to see some picks though.

He pointed and rerouted Matthews. It was actually a pretty good throw

 

[captainsword]

Yes my bad I was pissed about the snap

Yes. The snap was worse.

 

[volfan102455]

That was basically a “ jump ball “ for any one of the FOUR players in the vicinity.
Next week two of those will be Bulldogs. , just sayin

And least you forget, Juan Jennings took it away from several Bulldogs in Athens several years back.

 

[OrangeTsar]

He should have just fallen on the ball instead of trying to pick it up.

Yup, a 6th year QB should have known that

 

[joevol33]

Yeah we are in delay right now, so I’m watching you guys.

It's storming here, about 45 minutes north. Also, I hope AP wins

 

[Vol1976]

Why Smokey XI will run through the 'T' but not much else at Tennessee football games

The current Smokey does not do well with the crowd. Here is an article about it.

He's a handsome dog! Hope he gets better acclimated - my grandkids love watching Smokey.

 

[Jaxon_Vol2017]

Little concerned about our o-line right now

Based on one bad snap? you dudes over react more than my 15 year old daughter.

 

[Big Orange Captain]

I’m convinced because we were never the same after that SEC championship game and the way that we lost it was sickening. Maybe Heupel exercised it.

It won’t be exercised till we win a SEC title

 

[vol94]

Nvm

B/c he didn’t fall on the ball.

 

[PC Jr.]

Opportunity to run a 2 minute drill

I will agree … but what if they don’t?
