We won! Now I can go throw up. Just once I want to enjoy watching a TN team just beat the ever-loving hell out of someone with zero stress.

 

[EconVol92]

I know that any win should feel good, but this one really tests that theory.

 

[USMC-TNVOL]

A win is a win, but expectations are definitely lowered.

 

[ftsandersvol]

Going to have to learn to play for 60 minutes. Defense played well today.

 

[Aerie Vol]

Negas hardest hit.

 

[minorvol]

Does this mean Tennessee was the prettier team?

 

[molsen81]

Cedric Tillman 9 rec for 162 yards and a TD = bossing

 

[VollyParton]

Wooo! Vols hang in there TOUGH!
Love to get an overtime win!

 

[C-south]

Boom! I hope the negas are ok after this

In their defense there’s a lot to be nega about but an ugly win is still a win.

 

[VOL_Lyfe]

whelp. that game was a full 2-bottle effort. It was an uphill climb, but my liver was equal to the challenge.

 

[ScornedPapaVol]

Ok what are the odds here for Pitt. Much better than I’d like unfortunately

Odds are they ass is down for the count...

 

[OrangeFrog]

Props to the defense. They made some plays. Offense needs to get their head out of their...

 

[TomcatVolFan]

This game was gut wrenching to watch and I have a lot of gut to wrench.

 

[Delmar]

We’ll, we never make it easy do we but I’ll take it. Tried our best to give it away but didn’t. Kudos to the defense after the first 8 minutes.

 

[patrick]

I am thankful for this win. Go Vols.

 

[Switch 625]

We did just beat a Top 25 team on the road for the first time in who knows how long.

UK last year?

 

[TooLegit2Quit]

A win is a win is a win! Go Vols! Beat the Zips!

 

[KeyVol14]

A win is a win, but expectations are definitely lowered.

You cannot be serious….

 

[BJWeeks]

Still shaking

 

[SoddyAllVol]

Offense was shaky at best today but the d really surprised me. Great to be a Tennessee Vol

 

[Strateegery]

What. A. Battle.

 

[DocVOLiday]

Well damn! Glad we came out with a win

Lot of problems, but a win on the road against a ranked team is always good

 

[Kicker82]

Glad to get a win even if ugly…have to be a lot better once sec play starts

 

[saxvol]

Nice win against a higher ranked opponent in their house. We got some things to work on in the warm up game next week.

 

[DaddyChad]

The team lacks discipline and he can improve his situational play calling

You can discipline all you want. Catching the damn football is the issue here. We lack ball security. Now I would argue flowers never should attempted to field that punt in the position he was in.

Thank gawd...Vols WIN.
