The Official #24/#18 Tennessee vs. Syracuse Game Thread, 12:00 PM ET, ABC

[Larkin]

I think a fumbles coming up

 

[VOLinAL]

Looking more like 2022 where our offense is on the field for 1-2 minutes and defense is always on the field.

 

[Clad in Big Orange]

Hopefully they regroup at halftime and come back pissed.

Weird half. Feels like we should be in control but aren’t.

 

[Pride85]

We’re missing the two DTs for sure

Well, they only have 37 yards rushing. Anything up the middle has been pretty well stuffed. Most yardage has been off tackle.

 

[DaddyChad]

No, it’s just bad luck. It’s a violent game.

They been on the field a while. Garner usually rotates a lot. We haven’t had the bodies to rotate as much as usual.

 

[Graca]

This D is not ANYWHERE on the same level as last years D.

 

[NighthawkVol]

Is Gibson hurt? I’m at the game.

 

[patrick]

I popped in just to check on the Legion of the Miserable and I'm not disappointed.

Whatever. Not much misery here.


Just discussion.

 

[rocketskates]

Goal line stand here would be YUGE. May just completely break their spirits.

 

[tntornadox]

I think a fumbles coming up

That would be beautiful.

 

[rxengineer]

Is it just me or do these announcers only talk about Syracuse? They don’t even know our players names???

 

[tnvols72]

Banks is up in the box he can't call it.

I thought he communicated with his coaches on the sideline

 

[mattutk2005]

Every other 12 game is halftime. I hate how long Vol games are every week.

Typical for ESPN.

 

[Lankykong]

Our initial guys were just getting more line disruption is what I mean

 

[lukeneyland]

Whatever. Not much misery here.


Just discussion.

We’re doing pretty good. Not perfect but it’s week 1

 

[Z06Vol]

LBs are struggling

 

[SGMVols]

This D is not ANYWHERE on the same level as last years D.

They’ve played less than a half of football and they’re playing a 10 win ACC team first game instead of a buy game. The sky isn’t yet falling.

 

[alavolfan]

This ain’t good. We need keep rhem out of the end zone or to hold them to a field goal.

 

[landscapingvol]

I thought he communicated with his coaches on the sideline

He does lol that was a stupid excuse

 

[Other_Guy]

That's like every game for TN the last few years. They probably roll around on the ground walking to class just out of habit. Then again, do they go to class?

Defense was insanely healthy compared to the O all camp. Hopefully they get all the minor injuries out of the way today

 

[DaddyChad]

Is Gibson hurt? I’m at the game.

Definitely played earlier. Got a PI then came out. Haven’t seen him since then but maybe he’s played

 

[Chippo]

Defense with injuries is taking its toil. Offense is going to have to pick up the slack

 

[Larkin]

letting them back in is not good

 

[ButchPlz]

Damn.
