The Official Tennessee vs. South Carolina Game Thread, 12:00 PM ET, ESPN2

[OptimisticFan]

I seriously think 8-4 is a real possibility this season

9-3

 

[MAD]

It’s happening

 

[FLVOL_79]

Glad to see Hooker turn that corner he needed to..no pun intended..

 

[Pickinhick]

We gave up 93 yards in the first quarter. What is wrong with our defense?

 

[fossilfiction]

Heupel got the IT factor.

He does have a DevOps look to him.

 

[Other_Guy]

I’m speechless.

Finally nice to not mean this in a negative way.

 

[CR-vol]

That's the kind of offense that attracts recruits.. we're gonna be fine...

 

[CoachClick]

I hate Pruitt so much.

From day 1.

 

[IndianaVolunteer]

I know for a fact coach hype wouldn’t kick a FG on 4th and goal on the 1.

And that makes me feel warm and fuzzy

 

[BUCCnVOLfan]

It’s been a long time since game day commentators were gushing over the way TN is playing during a game. We deserve it too. As a fan base we’ve eaten crap for way too long.

 

[rgvol]

Saturdays are fun again.

 

[orangotango]

Anyone heard what the attendance is for the game

No but it’ll be packed next game count on it!

 

[Hurley Mooncalf]

Can't like this enough!!!!!!

 

[LookoutVol]

Gamecocks offense looks better than their defense. Which is the opposite of what I expected. Anyways GBO

 

['Boro-vol]

Imagine what it will look like with more than razor thin depth. I was excited when we hired Heupel because of his ability to do more with less. Now I’m ready to do more with more.

Another blowout SEC win will really attract attention.

 

[Doberman]

Pruitt: time to go cut grass, this one’s over.

Heupel: time to go cut grass, this one’s over.

In totally opposite fashion.

 

[dduncan4163]

You cannot wipe the smile off my face right now.

Same Hoss same

 

[chuckb1448]

I love me some Mr. Wilson

 

[FSUReb]

Wooot! We want Bama! Go Vols!

 

[Tennessee Lead]

Recruits take notice!

 

[Volfan2012]

227 first quarter yards and 28 points.

 

[PA Vol]

Going to be a couple of more years before we can really challenge the big guys, but this is a good sign. One or two years of beating these teams the way we should, we hit that transfer portal hard and recruit guys to our system that we can develop, and recruiting and the rest will take care of themselves

I only wish we had started Hooker against Pitt. We would be 5-1 going into Ole Miss week.

 

[Unconditional Surrender]

We want Kiffin.

 

[Other_Guy]

We gave up 93 yards in the first quarter. What is wrong with our defense?

Farh Huep!

 

[TheMookieMonster]

Much like how he did last week, I hope Heupel continues to put his foot on the opponent's throat. Run up the score as much as you can. Show off for the recruits and the rest of the SEC. Don't play to run out the clock like Butch ball.
