I bet there's a season or two we didn't have 452 yards rushing against the entire SEC schedule.

Great win! Feels like this isn’t the last time the Vols will score 60 this year!

 

[lilesrt]

Quick! Someone sign Heupel to an extension. We don’t want this guy to get away.

Tennessee has six QBs. Joe Milton is a junior, Henson Hooker a senior, Harrison Bailey is a sophomore, Gaston Moore is a RS Freshman, Spencer Smith is a RS sophomore, and Sully McDermott is a Freshman.

The Rocky Top Volunteers demolish the hapless Mizzou Tigers.

[VFL28]

Who thought we were three point underdogs? Lmao!

 

[Orange_Crush]

Is Mizzou complaining that their old OC ran it up on them?

[OldVolMan]

Hopefully we will not have to see a QB debate thread next week, at least get a one week break!

 

[Vol737]

We needed this one. Can’t wait to watch the replay.

I don't know what you've seen from South Carolina to say they are easily better than Mizzou. South Carolina is just the opposite of Mizzou. Abysmal offense

I've watched all of Missouri's games this season, though. It's pretty much been this for them each week.

They're consistently giving around 500+ yards of total offense, but it's been how and the teams they've been giving it up to. Both of the last two FBS teams it played were devoid of passing games (Kentucky because of its general passing game troubles; BC because it was still breaking in a new QB following the season-ending injury to the original starter). Even Central Michigan hit the 500 mark.

But the kicker: Kentucky only had 10 passes, and Boston College 18, yet - and neither one passed for more 175 yards - yet both had over 511 and 450 yards of offense.

The Missouri rush defense has been so bad that even when it knew the other team was just going to be running the ball or would have to place a much heavier usage/burden on its running game to hide its passing game deficiencies…well, Missouri’s 130th ranked defense still couldn’t stop that offensive scheme.

The NCAA could allow the Tigers to play with shotguns, the opposing coach could decide to attempt zero passes that game, the stadium announcer could repeatedly announce that the opposing university signed a binding legal document stating that the QB can not pass the football under penalty of law, he opposing QB's snap count could literally be "we're running the ball this play. Hike!"...and with all that, Missouri's defense would still end up giving up 8 yards a carry.

[OldVolMan]

Perfect timing, now watch the Ole MS/Bama game.

[VolGirl81]

Very impressive, good job. I liked seeing Hooker go over and shake Heupel’s hand and the players coming up behind coach. They believe in him

 

[Gary10ec1]

Team having fun. Creates the right culture to buy in on further development. Go Vols!

 

[BigDave]

GO BIG DAMN ORANGE!!

 

[VOL_Lyfe]

Fine game - let's build on this!!

 

[JCHateSteve]

Best game in quite a while.
