The Official Tennessee @ Missouri Game Thread, 7:15 pm ET, ESPN2

[catchnburn]

Maybe Butch didn't want to put it hard on them due to this being Pinkel's last game.. Maybe he has compassion.. Just maybe..



I do feel bad for him. Hope he kicks cancers butt..

I think it's just bc Mizzou defense is just THAT good

 

[IluvdoubleD's]

Dobbs limping.

Dormady time!

 

[golfballs]

What's up with this prevent defense?? Are we playing to win or playing not to lose??

 

[governmentmule]

another good kick by Trevor

 

[DeepSpringsVol]

Mizzou better carry that man off the field.

 

[saxvol]

Butch ends another win streak against us. Go vols

 

[titansvolsfaninga]

Well, there it is. So Butch actually DOES think it takes 6 to 7 years. Lol.

I guess you think a team can win the SEC with freshmen and sophmores.

 

[BoColoco]

Pick 6 coming!

 

[Sarms58]

Those 2 runs by Hurd won the ball game

The game plan to grind it out on the ground...play tough in the trenches and dare they go best us with a freshman QB - that's what won it....the General would have approved.

 

[vols-1]

Mizzou is pathetic. Their students. Their fans. Their administrators.

And players

 

[DoubleA]

I think now we should run clock but serious question. Have we run a TE slant this year? Sounds like a really good play.

It has been open for ever.

 

[djohnnyg]

Frank Beamer lost his last home game today and now Pinkel. Va Tech might not even get a bowl game.

 

[vol-un-tear]

Hurd balled and we Win #7! Go Vols!!

 

[YankeeVol]

Wasn't pretty, but it's a win.

 

[tnvols72]

I love how we've utterly wasted all that WR talent we've stockpiled, this season. Nothing compels 5*WR's to commit to UT like see all those BIG WR's rarely utilized.

No way if I was a 4 or 5* WR would I even consider Tn. I would not be shocked if a couple we have right now don't leave.

 

[FleeceItOut]

Good win on an extremely cold night and an emotional one for Mizz.

Now let's trounce Vandy.

 

[VolnJC]

The big losers are the Missouri fans who wouldn't support their coach or their seniors in their last home game

 

[Ty4Vols]

Good game for the Vols. Covered and won convincingly. Defense was on point and RB's played great.

 

[BigOrangeD]

Their coach is dying of cancer, let him have it.

Jesus

No he's not. He said it was very manageable. non hotchkins lymphoma.

 

[VolFootballIsLife]

Lemme see if I can figure out what Tennessee is going to run... 1st down-Jalen Hurd up the middle. No gain. 2nd down-Jalen Hurd up the middle, no gain. 3rd down. Jalen Hurd up the middle-fumble > PUNT

Ummmm....it worked well for us and we got a W. Why are you complaining??

 

[VOLorNuttin]

Even when we try to run out the clock, why do we always have to limit our playcall selection to 2 plays? Run up the middle or run Dobbs. Can we not be a little creative? No reverses? No screens. No misdirection.

 

[GBO97]

Nice that it looks like we'll put this away without too much drama for a change.

 

[Bukowskified]

You wanted a win, you got a win. Can we just enjoy it this time?

 

[utvolpj]

Lemme see if I can figure out what Tennessee is going to run... 1st down-Jalen Hurd up the middle. No gain. 2nd down-Jalen Hurd up the middle, no gain. 3rd down. Jalen Hurd up the middle-fumble > PUNT

Did you even watch the last drive?

 

[knoxchief]

Moral victory
