The Official #9 Tennessee vs. Austin Peay Game Thread, 5:00 PM ET, SEC Network+

[FLVOL_79]

Punter should never kick with his right foot again.

 

[2EastTnVols]

Milton not on his game tonight.
Nico hurt worse than we've been told.
Defense keeping us in it.
Glad we have a defensive minded coach.

Nico hurt?

I'm tickled that I've got More Commercials to influence my weak mind.. I'm about to Buy Everything I See

I am absolutely sick of seeing lower level coaches having so much fun on Shields Watkins field in the 4th.

 

[sonofUT62]

Maybe we can work something out where the crowd tells Hadden when to turn his head? Like telling Forrest when to run and stop…….

 

[37620VOL]

This staff is scared to death of Milton. They have negative trust in him right now

Why would that be true, has he thrown five pics?

 

[TennVols12]

We cant win a big game with Milton and Heup better realise this before its too late

Too bad we didn’t win the orange bowl. That would’ve negated your comment instantly..

 

[volmanNC]

OL not having a good night...

 

[Jaxon_Vol2017]

God are we in trouble this season.

Playing like this, yes.

 

[orangerush]

The defense is not going to carry every game.

 

[imavolfan]

How about a screen on 3rd and short?

 

[DEFENDTHISHOUSE]

Terrible way to manage the end of this game. Nico clearly needs reps. Joe ain't finishing the season.

Nico must be hurt worse than we’ve been led to believe

 

[D-rock]

For heavens sake has Josh Heupel not proved anything to you in his 2 seasons here.

Of course he has. Those seasons were different teams. It hasn’t clicked yet. Being realistic. We will not even try to throw downfield with AP.

 

[Zues1]

Josh is sandbagging.
Next week he's breaking out the real offense

 

[jasonvol18]

I can call defense against the offense. Halzle needs to be better

Playcalling isn't the issue. They don't trust Milton. He's not thrown deep the entire game. Give Nico some snaps.

 

[Jimmyandjoes]

Play calling has left a lot to be desired this evening.

This

 

[C-south]

Is Milton the new JG?

 

[TheMookieMonster]

The transition year between Hooker and Nico is going to be more painful than I thought. This is just not an offense equipped to have success. No passing game at all.

 

[37620VOL]

It's Milton. They don't trust him. That's not good..

This is probably the dumbest thing I've ever heard. He hasn't thrown an interception in 200 passes.

 

[Jaxon_Vol2017]

It's Milton. They don't trust him. That's not good..

Exactly. Not one long throw.

 

[Cartervol]

Put the freshman in. They may as well. They'll have him in after Milton shat's himself next week.. Wow. Not going to take long for Milton to force Heupel's hand at this point..

 

[Sarms58]

Hope Mays is back next week - I know it’s hard to block when they know we’re gonna run the same play every third down but still, we need to block better

 

[molsen81]

I understand that Milton is off but he she able to make minor adjustments as the game goes on.

 

[Frozevol]

3rd and short - they have blitzed six or seven all night. I’m so confused as to why we haven’t adjusted

Do we ever try a true screen?

 

[landscapingvol]

Offensive line is pathetic and so is Milton, huge mistake not to get a different qb out of the portal. He has zero ability to read a defense or audible out of a play. He has no clue how to read through progressions
