The Official #5 Tennessee @ South Carolina Game Thread, 7:00 PM ET, ESPN

[Burhead]

This fricking team man what a fricking waste of a season.

 

[posivol]

our d has shiiit the bed tonight

 

[Palmetto_Exiled]

Hadden and Martinez need to walk east from Columbia and never come back.

And when they hit water, start swimming

 

[tdd]

We don’t have to debate the top 5 again. We came back to earth hard tonight. This is brutal. Out coached and un-prepared. Coach Heupel didn’t get us ready today. WE LOOKED GOOD WITH THOSE ORANGE HELMETS. WHAT A FRIGGIN JOKE.

 

[SDV]

Totally out coached this week. Total embarrassment. Kudos to the Gamecocks. Very prepared for this game

 

[LivinginthePast]

Think it will be better for my mental health if I give up Tennessee sports( I wish ). And save me some money for not having cable to watch it. It’s sad but this happens all the time when we are good. Rick Barnes. Tony vitello. Josh heupel. I know I’m over dramatic and it’s a great season. But the stress of BVS is real. Go vols. Go vols. I trust heupel will even do better next year.

 

[Volbrando]

Banks can’t survive this, can he?
SC scored 6 last week!

They’ll make excuses with banks being out etc

 

[orange_glory]

Burn the orange helmets

 

[Memphisvol87]

I do remember somebody getting torched over and over against Vandy a few years ago. Can recall who.

Probably Burrell who would be out there getting owned if he wasn’t hurt

 

[NOLAPhil]

2 years removed from the bottom. Still have some culture issues. This sucks...Hopefully the culture keeps changing for the better. Spirit of Lyle and Gump still have a little hold.

 

[Go47]

This is a loss that will haunt this team . . . Forever. As bad as I hate it as a fan . . . I really hate it for these players.

 

[Russdaddy2027]

I am in stands. In shock. Please wake up and rally

Id prob head to the car….

 

[The Original Fade]

Again, the back up QBs dad was right lol

 

[jtdavis]

They flushed the entire season tonight and are getting their a**s handed to them by the biggest jackass in the conference.

 

[zaqhhh]

Our D played with fire the whole year, about time they got burned frankly

A lot will be forced into the portal and a lot will come here in the portal

 

[GhostVol]

Banks can’t survive this, can he?

Banks, maybe....

Martinez? Leave 'im off the bus

 

[lifeisdeep]

This is the most blatantly fixed sporting event I have ever witnessed. If there were any probity in the NCAA these refs would be arrested immediately after the game and charged with racketeering. Somebody needs to put them in the river.

 

[mritter]

Has nothing to do with the refs. We have pissed this game away on defense, not covering, not much oass rush, missed throws, and it's our fault. Play flat and let them get confidence and you get Rattler having the best performance of the year.

 

[ENGRVOL]

When every week except lsu and kentucky the opposing qb has a career day it might be time to realize your secondary is trash.
this was the type of play we were afraid of to start the season. Our offense and our d-line helped hide these deficiencies. Really great season but unless a miracle this will be a top 5 loss for the vols in the modern era

 

[Boston Vol]

Banks can’t survive this, can he?
SC scored 6 last week!

You would hope not.

 

[RockyTop140]

Seriously? The refs don’t play defense for Tennessee

How many times have you seen questionable calls that bailed out SC tonight? I’ve seen it 3-4 times. Doesn’t excuse the crappy D, but it is absolutely screwing us. So yes seriously.

 

[TheVolsFrog]

I guess Milton will be our Tee Martin..
Hopefully we have a new defensive staff to go along with them...
flags or not. This crap by the D was pathetic.
Guys on Offense have been coached up but the D, they still running in circles knocking footballs off blow dummies like it's spring practice

 

[volmanjr]

Georgia was good. South Carolina is a joke.

Jokes on us....

 

[Andrew8210]

Vandy could be tough next week.

 

[utvolpj]

The QB is anything but mediocre, and he has had all day to throw against an OVC secondary

No, he's absolutely mediocre but having one great night
