The Official #8 Tennessee @ #25 LSU Game Thread, 12:00 PM ET, ESPN

[VolPack22]

Defense is 100% dependent on the front 7 getting pressure. If that doesn’t happen then the chunk plays occur.

 

[VOLtaism]

Need to score TD's and get off the field on 3rd and long. Don't make it a field goal game Josh!

 

[G0V0LS33]

Will Martinez is the worst secondary coach to ever be hired in the SEC. Change my mind.

Cannot if i tried

 

[coach799]

With two weeks to prepare, you would think we were better prepared for this offense.

 

[TennesseeTarheel]

Our DBs just don’t understand the concept of getting the ball carrier on the ground.

It's like they're under-sized.

 

[sechamp2012]

Well Daniels best quarter this year has been 2nd so we need to change that

 

[DooleyOrangePants]

To be honest, we haven't used him much so far. Running the ball a lot for some reason. The 2 FGs instead of TDs were big misses. I hope they don't bite us.

You and me both. Although, on the road at LSU, taking the points early isn’t a bad strategy at all.

I expect we will see the playbook open up here in the 2nd.

 

[bigdaddy]

Covered them there

 

[Jxn Vol]

We didn’t make good use of the bye week to improve the secondary

 

[TennVols12]

28 Rucker did not finish that last play. He needs to sit for a bit.

Who’s going in? Me or you? We’ve got no one else lol

 

[chuckb1448]

What I wouldn’t give for an AJ Johnson, Curt Maggitt or Al Wilson out there today and just let them feast on Daniels.

We’ve got to get some kids in that have that fire and killer mentality on the defensive side. Having that, you could stick a dagger in a team like LSU early.

Dale Carter and Eric Berry

 

[sunnyvol79]

And people still think Martinez and Banks are good

They both need to go. Wasn’t Martinez on Butch’s staff? Josh is going to have to improve that defense at some point if we ever want to take the next step as in winning championships

 

[YankeeVol]

Good D there. Now stop em

 

[GhostVol]

4th down conversion incoming in 3, 2,...

 

[HighRockvol]

Good defense there

 

[Other_Guy]

Lsu has to feel good right now with how the game started. We haven’t thrown the kitchen sink yet but dang we should at the last be up 17-0

What does this even mean? Do you think the team is just half trying or the playcallers are being vanilla waiting for Bama week?

 

[G0V0LS33]

Brian Kelly was pissed there

 

[DaddyChad]

Special teams have been special. LSU has done pretty well on defense though. This game is closer than I’d like.

 

[TennVols12]

We didn’t make good use of the bye week to improve the secondary

Yeah, it’s a quick fix like that right?

 

[JCHateSteve]

Gotta think they'll go for it again.

 

[zeppelin128]

Wow people are so radical on here. Love it. It’s actually funny

 

[G0V0LS33]

Come on D

 

[BUCCnVOLfan]

Oh BK mad!!!

 

[Larkin]

Kelly seems like a whiny b!tch

 

[G8rh8r]

I actually think the defense looks much improved over Florida
