The Official Johnny Majors Classic: Tennessee vs. Pittsburgh Game Thread, 12:00 PM ET, ESPN

[C-south]

Anyone who didn't give up on Milton last week and didn't expect him to miss every deep ball needs to get their head check. Gave up on him after the 2nd quarter against BG.

I’m not seeing any improvement.

 

[PalmettoStateVol]

What kind of idiot QB wears two gloves.

Peyton Manning would like a word with you.....

 

[UTK]

By watching your offense stall play after play when it should be 21-0 instead of 10-0 with Pitt in the redzone

I agree but should be more the reason to hold it down. Lol just looked sloppy and out of position this drive. But they're playing hard. Can't complain too much

 

[irish1485]

Milton 6-11 for 44 yards

My only critic is his long ball, and I'm not sure he can fix it

 

[Berry4Heisman14]

Joe gets better on that long ball we'll be in business. I figure he will get better with experience need him to hit a couple today.

I’m afraid either you got it or you don’t and he doesn’t have the touch it is what it is

 

[Rylee_Vol18]

Am I the only one that'll be happy with a win?

No. Why would be mad about a win?

 

[VOLnVANDYland]

JG would've made all those passes, lol.

Negative, Ghost Rider

 

[JohnD13]

If Pitt throws more they’ll beat us

100%

He'll land one eventually and people will think he has finally turned the corner.

 

[peerless98]

Am I the only one that'll be happy with a win?

Nope, I'll be very happy with a 1 point win

 

[saxvol]

This is so frustrating, feels like we should be killing them.

 

[ABINGDON VOL FAN]

I had rotator cuff surgery last November… I’m 53 years old… have had 4 beers…. And I could have completed the one pass for the walk in TD

We will need some video confirmation.

 

[Orange defense]

Milton has to settle down on his long throws. Once again, he has to throw lighter, but get it to the outside shoulder with softer passes out there. I like the throws, but soften them up!

 

[rocketskates]

Bowling Green picked moved the ball pretty easily on us last week. This shouldn’t surprise anyone.

Yep. We lost a lot of playmakers on defense. Our best chance of winning games this year is to out score our opponent Oregon style. It’s hard when you leave points on the field from overthrowing though.

 

[C-south]

Am I the only one that'll be happy with a win?

Wins are great but the writing is on the wall with the continuous blown opportunities with a bad qb.

 

[Bloodrunsorange27]

I thought some armchair experts in here watched every play of BG game and assured us Milton was great

 

[kell7517]

True but Hyatt's drop didn't matter as it turned out due to a holding penalty

Or two of his overthrows as Pitt was offsides?

 

[mpfvol]

I am in a walking boot and 47 years old and could have hit that

 

[UTK]

It sucks not having confidence in the offense when that's what we were supposed to be good at lol

 

[keagener]

Any update on hyatt?

 

[Kelley_VFL]

It seems neither group of DBs can cover the WRs. QBs dream.

 

[imavolfan]

The only TD we have came off the blocked punt. Take that away and it is a 3 point game. If Milton has another possession that ends with no points we NEED to make the change. Pitt has faded the adrenaline filled opening and is now back in the game.

 

[ButchPlz]

Damn.

 

[LittleVol]

Can you imagine how good Banks would be now if Pruitt hadn't kept flip-flopping him between LB and RB?

Nah. Pruitt let him play LB for 2 straight seasons. And have to give him credit for seeing that LB was his future.

 

[sechamp2012]

Milton looks good on most all except the long pass. Just go to dink & dunk and screens. Screen to Venus looked good. Of course O becomes one dimensional may hurt down the Roy.
