The Official Tennessee vs. #6 Florida Game Thread, 3:30 PM ET, CBS

Same initial record as Majors through the same amount of games. We all knew we’d have to be patient with Pruitt.(first time HC) You can’t deny the players love him, so he will keep getting good recruits just on that. I believe he can improve with a good a QB and we can compete soon.

I’ll have some of what you’re smoking.

 

[GoVolunteers]

I think we do have 2 or 3 players that could crack the starting lineup on a top tier SEC team.

 

[Proud Army Wife]

Have we had a game this season we’ve come out the second half and actually looked good

Mizzou maybe

 

[Bigorange123]

What a dart.

 

[whodeycin85]

Well crap, on to next week, enjoy the forum NegaVols

Thank god your leaving....

 

[DOCTORLOOMIS]

THIS IS EXACTLY PRECISELY WHY PUNTING IN THE 4th QUARTER WAS TERRIBLE. My god why can’t people understand this?

 

[C-south]

Question? Asking for a friend....is losing by 24 closing the gap on top tier programs?

We’re creating a culture aight

 

[BIGAL27]

There is no way in hell if I had a kid getting recruited by Tennessee I would let him go there!!!! Coaching staff is a JOKE!!!

 

[Gandalf]

I am only watching this game to see Bailey play right now this team as a whole is not coached well number 3 is the best player on the team and its not because of coaching

Agreed. the ONLY reason I am even watching this game at all is to see what Bailey can do. Otherwise I actually would have watched a movie or done something else.

 

[Matt2496]

Mullen still teaching and instructing his QB up big on the road. Pruitt and Weinke look bored and disinterested.

Such a stark contrast between the 2 sidelines. It's pretty telling.

 

[volmoon]

When was the last time TN football only won 2 games in any season?

 

[Bassplayer30074]

hardly bearable to watch. i guess being competitive is just too much to ask for

 

[GatormanTX]

Mullen taking Pruitt to the woodshed today. Florida 84 is a heck of a receiver.

Pitts is a machine!

Just stop.

 

[igotworms]

I’m starting to think they just play Madden.

They lose at that too

CLOSING THE GAP

 

[87&91ALUM]

Trask is a Senior and HB is a true freshman. Maybe in 2024 we win again.

 

[hog88]

Florida only need 1 more score to add to Pruitts Tennessee all time record of 25 point or more losses. Yes that’s right, the Gump in under 3 full seasons has more 25 point or more losses than any other coach in UT history.

 

[Cartervol]

Team is just poorly coached.

 

[wesley21]

McCullough #22 gets burnt every play

 

[ABINGDON VOL FAN]

This why you don't punt btw. Florida is capable of doing this any given drive.

We had three 3&outs prior to that drive. It was the right call with almost 14 minutes left.

 

[JonGrudensAgent]

Anyone who is still hammering on the defense at this point is clueless

Definitely not a great defense.

But we have been in this game with anything...anything...from the offense

Granted the offense sucks.

But 6/12 on 3rd down for FL and they aren't really firing on all cylinders today.

At some point the defense has to get off the field themselves.

 

[lostsheep]

They've only had about three weeks to prep for the game.

But..but..we’ve had to deal with Covid. Other teams apparently haven’t, I guess?

 

[VolunteerCeltic]

Way to go Vols, embarrased on national TV again, owned by Florida again, 6 game blowout losing streak sets record. No coach who has been in their 3rd year on the hot seat will save their job in year 4. Clay Travis had it right in his column.

 

[shmashed]

If Mullen wasn’t using this game as live-fire practice for their terrible run game, this defense would have given up ~50.
