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

[TenUhSee]

after watching Milton crap the bed last week, why the hell was he the starter today ? that kid is GARBAGE as a QB !

 

[VOLnMiami]

Win or lose I am damn proud of how hard these kids have played today...They haven't given up...We are impressing some good recruits by playing this way so keep the faith and lets win this damn game if the stupid refs don't screw us out of it.

 

[utvolz98]

Not seeing any quit in this team. That’s a good sign, IMO.

A lot of stupid penalties though.

 

[Dudleys87]

Going to need a turnover.

And a quick one….

 

[peerless98]

I'll say it again, we need a turnover to win.....let's do this

 

[onecrazytj]

Hooker getting QB1 reps this coming week should get him even more comfortable.
We go in and beat Tech good and I don't know I think we may can get one against FL

Let’s get one today first

 

[lostsheep]

Hooker is our QB.

He can run this offense.

Agree. Much more of a run threat.

 

[OldandStillaVol]

It is clear that Hooker is the better then Milton. My question is how did the coaches not see it when anyone watching the game sees it right now?

Promises were made……

 

[JonGrudensAgent]

Do we know what happened to Small?

Sophomore running back Jabari Small, who appeared to injure his left shoulder in the closing seconds of the first half, is going to attempt to return to the game, according to the report.

 

[unfrozencvmanvol]

I have doubts.

They are knotted up with East Carolina at 17 with 5 minutes to go.

 

[DustyRockSolid]

Say what you want and we definitely missed a lot of opportunities but the lads in orange are still fighting for a win.

we lost cause our coach sucks.

 

[ShoalCreekVol]

How many years is this going to take???
We have been hearing it’s going to take a couple of years for 12 years!

Turns out it was 14 years. So, a couple of years.

 

[Volswin98]

They even hesitate to call that, screw these refs

Yea reminds me of Summer slam ‘88 when the Macho Man had to push Jesse Ventura’s hand down to get the count out.

 

[PA Vol]

Hope is creeping back.

Preparing to shield my nuts.

 

[1985Vols]

Just glad we’re not getting embarrassed on national tv again

 

[saxvol]

Team did not quit after being down two scores, that's an improvement over the last three years.

 

[BP4Prez]

It's sad when as a tennessee vols fan, the only games I think they have a slight chance of winning are tennessee tech, Vanderbilt, and South Alabama

Dear lord man. We still have a chance to win this one

 

[C-south]

Onside kick

 

[1985Vols]

Hope is creeping back.

Preparing to shield my nuts.

Nothing a Hooker can’t help

 

[ABINGDON VOL FAN]

Hurt, looked like shoulder

Radio stated lower extremity but I listened to them for a few minutes and the older announcer whoever he is. Is not very impressive.

 

[tnvols72]

Let's go stop cause we are not a turnover defense

we can hope for one lol

 

[Rockytopvol86]

Milton surely must be a practice king.. but he sure wasn’t a gamer. Hooker at least is consistent in both

 

[TheMookieMonster]

Need a turnover in a bad way.

 

[volbound1700]

We need a Pitt turnover bad.

 

[chattavol420]

It is clear that Hooker is the better then Milton. My question is how did the coaches not see it when anyone watching the game sees it right now?

Why was there no real competition for the job? And then, why did we not rotate quarterbacks in the opener as it was a glorified scrimmage. Especially once we got late in the game in Milton was absolutely freaking terrible. He was asked that after the game. Coach why didn’t you allow anyone else to play qb. No real answer from him.
