The Official Tennessee vs. #2 Alabama Game Thread, 3:30 ET, CBS

[EODVOL]

We need another qb its obvious however... the FEW times he has thrown it today he has done well.

I think you spoke too soon, did you watch that last series. Can't blame the O-line either.

 

[VolArmy74]

How would we know?

They dropped 2 interceptions on that last series and Bama is 13th against the pass in the SEC.

 

[lifeisdeep]

Just like his head coach.

Pruitt would have to improve significantly to get to average. Even an average D-II coach would have had enough sense by now to play someone else at QB.

 

[GUNTERSVOL]

I think Palmer ran the wrong route on that one.

one of them led an extra db into the play and took away receivers advantage

 

[hatingbamaisawayoflife]

We just shifted to where the play was going and they still got 4 yards

 

[VolforFootball]

Gonna be up to our defense now. If we can't get a stop here, game is likely over.

 

[CA_Vol]

I just don’t understand why we had JG in when Pruitt has been bitching about COVID keeping the other QBs from getting reps AND saying live reps are the most valuable.

If makes more sense of you consider he’s an idiot.

 

[MemphisVol77]

Missouri beating Kentucky 17-3 after 3. Makes that loss even look worse.

You'd think that by the laws of entropy and transitive property it would be impossible for UT to keep their grip on the sh!t end of the stick this long.

 

[1974Vol]

That was the quintessential JG throw...late and to the wrong shoulder. If that ball arrives as Johnson comes out of his break and is to the inside its a 1st down.

 

[TheVolsFrog]

Bama sat their QB..
We better on our next possession

 

[VOL_Lyfe]

Bama bleeds clock at 10:00

 

[RRagan40]

Johnson should have played last year. He has contributed almost zilch to this years team. Keaton and Byrd have not contributed anything either. Byrd one catch all year. Time to play all the freshman receivers. Every single one of them.

Tyler Byrd graduated last year. What games have you been watching?

 

[pharmDvol11]

Lol @ Alabama being the first team to play another QB in this game! #Pruittliedtous

 

[LocoVol]

I love, eat, sleep and breathe this team but i cant take gump and his love affair with jg any more!

 

[I Love Lamp]

Not sure we can come back after that.

Yea I think that was the dagger

 

[GreyWolf1129]

I want to hear Pruitt explain the early FG and the punt from midfield as a 21 point dog against an NFL team. I want to hear the strategical decision making.

Personally, I’d like to see JG have more third-down completions for first downs than check downs for tackles behind the line, or three and outs. That just might make a difference.

 

[Voltopia]

Heh. Alabama gets their backup in at QB before Tennessee does. Neat.

 

[Mustng959]

Still some time left but I feel better about Tennessee's playing this week. Yea, Bama scored a bunch of points but I feel like the 2nd half of the season might not be as bad as I thought it might be after the Kentucky fiasco last week.

 

[arkyvol]

My wife asked me, "What's wrong with Tennesee--are they just mediocre?" I told her, I'd kill to be mediocre.

 

[JonGrudensAgent]

I just don’t understand why we had JG in when Pruitt has been bitching about COVID keeping the other QBs from getting reps AND saying live reps are the most valuable.

Because Pruitt is FOS.

 

[BeardedVol]

Pruitt and JG both are going to end their respective tenures at UT having never actually beaten Florida, Georgia, or Alabama.

 

[cgrish]

throw a damn slant. jeez.

jg can't consistantly throw a slant; he will throw many int. if he tries it.

 

[MiddleVol76]

All the qbs have nice deep balls. He offers nothing else.

No TO’s though.

 

[GoVols64]

I will just tell you that I'm infinitely, immeasurably better at what I do than the two buffoons my post referred to, and leave it at that.

I didn’t realize Jeff Bezos was on this board. Nice to meet you!

 

[TitanVol82]

Bamas freshman qb looks better than our 5th year senior
