The Official #23 Tennessee vs. #19 Oklahoma Game Thread, 6:00 pm ET, ESPN

[armchair]

Honestly I was talking about him with my dad. He looked like a stud (and he still is) his freshman year because we basically didn't have any receivers. Now we have 2 years of 5 and 4 star receivers and suddenly we don't need to rely on only him anymore. I'm surprised about no passes, but I don't think he's our best option anymore.

On the plus side, you can't really double team him every play anymore.

WHERE are they? Pig--0 catches. Pearson = O. Our passing game is rough. Can't just run Hurd all year.

Let's bring out thor's hamner by scoring to open the 2nd half a td.

 

[rxtacy7]

With all that being said, I feel really good about where we are in that game. 14 pt lead And we get the ball. Time to run it down their freaking throat

 

[fade route]

Score isn't representative of what's happening on the field - we haven't moved the ball much since our last TD, their D line is getting all kinds of penetration and they are starting to find some rhythm out there. Game will go down to the wire IMO.

BTW, Bowling Green torched Maryland

 

[UTK]

We need to try a few deep passes to loosen that D back up.

Thrilled to be up 2 TDs and get the ball first in second half.

Gotta give Dobbs time

17-3













:hi:

At 17-0 Sooners defense adjusted - Can the Vols offense adjust?

I am laughing at the group of fans , that decided , our staff cannot get it done . Hope that clears it up for you .

Gotcha. I'm kinda wait and see with the staff regarding play calling ect. But not questioning the talent they've assembled. We've won a bunch of one on one battles today. We are the faster more athletic team imo

 

[revjayp]

I just don't understand the lack killer instinct from our coaching staff. It appeared we got comfortable and tried to sit on the lead.

 

[olbemw7]

Oh hell, the feeling of dread just kicked in.

Shake it off, replace it with anger and get after it

 

[TheEndlessEnigma]

I am satisfied so far. Few little things wrong but playing a really good game. GBO!!!!!!!

 

[gr82batnvol]

Our special teams has been on point. Huge strength tonight!

 

[WiseOlVol]

This is how General Neyland envisioned football was to be played

 

[Z06VolinWV]

Are we saving Kamara for a tired Ok defense in the 2nd half. I only remember him getting one or two touches and one was straight up the middle.

And he's only ran up the gut!!

 

[VolFreakJosh]

We need to get Pig involved more

Agreed

 

[BigOrangeTrain]

Still need to see more passing. Where is Pearson and North?

A field goal's worth...hope so.

 

[Dmkvol]

Field position (turnover and kicking game) is the difference is this game so far. Got to keep that up as it's otherwise a pretty even match.

 

[firestorm]

Thank you Strriker for royally pissing off the big orange vols.

We tried that and we keep getting sacked or pressured.

I agree but till they stop it roll wit it lol:rock:

Yeah, will feel much better if we can come out and get a TD to start the 3rd quarter.

 

[DeepSpringsVol]

I'm in little rock. They lost a big runner, but based on O Line alone they should have scored 4 TDs on the rockets.

I think it is more indicative of problems at qb

Stats indicated maybe a bend but don't break or stumbling in red zone. Tons of yards through air but Collins rushing totals not good.

Is the game over? Has the staff done it? I'm not even sure who you're ripping but I'd wait to puff my chest if I were you...
