better not suffer a letdown in the second half!!! Vols are playing GREAT today!!! great performance thus far!!!!

 

[508mikey]

The point is that you sunshine pumpers are already talking about the defense and where has the defense been all year like they are actually doing something. You sound like Dooley did after the Troy game talking it up like it was some big accomplishment - beating Troy doesnt mean jack squat!

Holding an offense in check that is ranked 109 out of 120 in total offense is not something to be celebrating. It is like the dumbing down of America but rather the dumbing down of Tennessee fans.

^^^^^ Mizzou fan or negavol ^^^^^

 

[AJeray4TN]

If that was the case it would have happened earlier in the year.

Right. Clearly the offense has been slacking all year.

 

[BJSforVols]

3 year extension, IMO. Carry Dooley off the field at half.

Not enough. Need to build a statue before next home game.

 

[stephenk24]

That speaks volumes about where our program is.

Well this is only my second season as a fan, so to be fair I don't have much to compare to.

 

[MFL]

Give Coach D 3 more years.

 

[LittleCat]

Franklin has no clue what to do out there.

I can't, your head is in the way.

Right. Clearly the offense has been slacking all year.

There was times this year Hunter and CP had little to no catches. Don't let a few games change things.

You've got to be kidding.

 

[TennesseeOrange]

Wow maggitt finally looks healthy. Freaking gazelle.

 

[LittleCat]

Oh well. Spoke to soon.

 

[Wilhelm16]

Some random neighborhood kid just knocked on my door, and asked if I had any leftover Halloween candy.....I'm watching the Vols you rude little brat...I WILL kill you!!

 

[LittleCat]

UT has great wrs. Even with rogers gone.

 

[brandonco05]

There was times this year Hunter and CP had little to no catches. Don't let a few games change things.

So that automatically means they weren't trying to win?

 

[Neyland2nd2none]

This 3 down lineman with zone coverage is giving them hell. We're not selling out like usual

 

[blackmon]

Finally a kick into the endzone.

Was aiming to kick it out of bounds at the 20.....

 

[BJSforVols]

Uh oh, Sal must be calling the defense again!

 

[patrick]

I see what you're saying, but James Franklin is very dynamic and has been hurt all year. That Missouri team almost beat Florida last week and went toe-to-toe against their D, which is much better than ours. The defense is better whether you want to admit it or not.

I never said that the defense did not look better but it has to be evaluated in reference to the strength of the offense that they are playing.

 

[AJeray4TN]

UT has had one of the best offenses in the country all year. Not perfect, but one of the best. Your assertion is absolutely ridiculous. The DEFENSE has blown chunks all year.

 

[LittleCat]

Mizzou coming alive?!?

 

[stephenk24]

Is their QB a first string? If he is, lulz.

 

[BraveVolunteer]

Is Maggitt's foot better? He looks a lot faster today.

 

[Burnt Orange]

Uh oh, Sal must be calling the defense again!

He must be.
