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

[orangerush]

The good news is our defense has made no adjustments, so we shouldn’t expect anything different.

 

[Stephen Gray]

Guys we do not want Turnage out. He may be getting picked on tonight but our alternatives have looked worse

 

[tntornadox]

Are their fans cheering while a player is down?

 

[djwes]

Not a playoff team, absolute garbage

 

[vol94]

Let’s not complain about officiating. TN is getting whipped in the trenches and our DBs exposed. USCjr is calling a perfect game. He saw something on tape and attacking Turnage and McCollough.

 

[17Vols]

It’s mind boggling how terrible our secondary is

 

[MurphyVol]

Willie Martinez is awful

He's been consistent throughout his career

 

[djohnnyg]

Can't be a top team w this bad of a defense. Next year it'll be better.

 

[90 Vol]

The officiating is way beyond inept, it’s corrupt.

 

[Orange931]

This is the result of inept coaching.

That’s on Heupel. He needs to get his head out of his a** when it comes to defense because we need one.

 

[C-south]

TCU is better

 

[Rockytoprowdy]

WTF is wrong with the defense?

The same thing bay has been all year. The difference is, they’ve been able to get a key stop in other games and allow our offense to score and make the other team one dimensional… not the case tonight

 

[patrick]

This sucks.

Did our defense even practice this week. This is fn horrible.

Game is over.

Vols going to lose.

 

[G0V0LS33]

Take Turnage out. Geeez ray Charles could cover better

He was hurt man

 

[OrangeSquid]

I'm beginning to think the stars are lined up in SC's favor tonight. Everything is going against us and for them.
Sucks big time!

 

[turbovol]

We're making Rattler look like a Heisman winner....

 

[GetEmVols]

Well I won’t be mad if we don’t make playoffs now. I can see how we might not be a top 4 team after all. Defense is just too bad.

 

[first time caller]

Fun while it lasted guys....I don't see us stopping this train tonight.

 

[ftsandersvol]

Shades of the Dooley Kentucky game.

 

[lifeisdeep]

Why is SC not getting called for holding on their OLine? This is ridiculous.

Anyone who doesn’t think games get fixed: this is exhibit A.

 

[BleedOrange81]

Good people of South Carolina with a chant when someone is down injured.

 

[VolinMichigan]

WTF is happening to the defense? Why can nobody cover anyone?

 

[LieutenantNeyland]

This is the result of inept coaching.

pitiful call when the wr runs into our defender. We are getting a screw job by the refs

edit: replied to the wrong guy but the point remains.

 

[mpfvol]

These refs understood the assignment remove UT from the playoff conversation

 

[GhostVol]

Welp..... those of you who wanted Turnage off the field have your wish
