The Official Tennessee vs. #3 Georgia Game Thread, 7:00 PM ET, ESPN

[DEFENDTHISHOUSE]

I really hope LSU destroys Florida next week.

 

[vavolfan6]

We might as well try an onside kick to start the 2nd half, we can't stop them anyway.

Definitely a Pruitt move if he does. The defense has yet to hold Georgia to a stop on their side of the field anyways.

 

[TeddyYeti]

The Vols are simply outmatched in talent and depth right now

yea but I wish we could get lucky just a f'ing time or 2.

 

[UTK]

It isn’t the refs fault we can’t stop anyone on defense. We have moved the ball about as well as we could have hoped

Refs killed 2 promising drives of ours though on phantom calls.

 

[KBVol]

Agree... looks like some life in the O again. Might win one more this year.

One more? They play like this the rest of the way and they’ll win 4-5 more.

 

[nomads-11]

The backpeddling on his throws is gonna get him picked eventually.

Yeah, he is goons have to cut way down on that.

 

[Smokey1990]

We're playing a heck of a lot better than I thought we would. I honestly thought this would be like 28-0 by halftime. We'll probably lose, but we're playing much better than we have all season. Another silver lining is Maurer. The offense looks a lot better with him out there. He should be the starter from now on.

 

[jessiej86]

How man

Georgia rang up 354 yards of offense in the first half. That's pretty sobering, all other elements of this game aside.

How many does TN have?

 

[DNBVOL]

Not at all. Gonna have to bring the house every play and just live with it if they beat you deep

Yeah, we're not stopping Fromm. At least we found us a QB moving forward though. What the hell has Pruitt been thinking? Dude is obviously light years ahead of JG. How did you not see that?

 

[Tarkus]

We are finally playing with some fire. We are out-manned by the #3 team in the country and the defense is out of gas but we're still playing our best game of the season. If we play like this the rest of the season, we have a number of winnable games ahead.

 

[Volfaninfl2]

Poise required here QB18.

I just sort of smile before each play, with Maurer there. He’s instilling all with confidence.

 

[VOL_Lyfe]

JG calling Mayflower at the half

 

[zeppelin128]

On a positive note, our boy has 205 yards and two touchdowns in the first half.

 

[AustinMem]

If Pruitt puts JG in, I want to see a riot.. j/k....kinda

Only if we get to pull Pruitt from the game after he does that.

 

[JohnD13]

I expect Jeremy to adjust and clamp down in the 2nd half. If Maurer can continue to play well this game will go to the wire.

Just stop

 

[jdogvol]

Agreed. It's a habit that Weinke is going to get him out of.

What about Weinke has shown that he can coach bad habits out of any QB?

 

[Carl Pickens]

yea but I wish we could get lucky just a f'ing time or 2.

Me too brother.... it’s been way too long

 

[GAVol]

How man

How many does TN have?

239

 

[I4Vols]

I expect Jeremy to adjust and clamp down in the 2nd half. If Maurer can continue to play well this game will go to the wire.

I "expect" that too but don't see a history of it happening.

 

[Volunteer_Kirby]

Maurer

 

[VOL_Lyfe]

I really hope LSU destroys Florida next week.

I hate Florida with the heat of a thousand suns.

 

[BigOrangeMojo]

Again, coaches make their $$$ based on how teams start each half and end each half.

GSU won the game during this timeframe, BYU won the game during this timeframe, UF did most of their domination in this timeframe and UGA was outplayed most of the first half but dominated this timeframe....

Go back and read my prediction for this game. I called for UGA to get up early, Tennessee to play even for 20 mins and UGA build a 2 score lead right before the break.

 

[Behr]

lol what

Nothing, he thinks he can see into the future. I think its crack, but I don't know for sure.

 

[82_VOL_83]

If you score 14 in first half you should be in the game still. Because of Pruitt’s D, we’re not.

We are in the game and its not Pruitt"s D. He's not the DC.

 

[GhostVol]

Just saw Mullen with that ****eatin' grin on his face after the AU game. Bet it'll be twice as wide when he figures out that he's already played us.
