The Official Tennessee vs. Tennessee Tech Game Thread, 12:00 PM ET, ESPN+ (SEC Network+)

[Volprofch05]

I doubt he is very prepped to play. Has he seen the 1s in practice?

If he’s accustomed to our 3s, they’re still better than TN Tech’s 1s

 

[VolFreakJosh]

I apologize. I should have said you Milton jock riders.

“Bailey Jock Riders”

 

[BigOrangeAl 1979]

A funeral

It won’t be pretty

 

[guido4198]

I don’t care how anyone is playing. Just put HB in and let’s get this over with.

WHY NOT..???

 

[first time caller]

Heupel clearly saving his plays for Florida. Just wait and see!!!!!!

But we supposedly only have 8.

 

[willinhf]

We are going to get killed in the SEC. 1-7. If Vandy can make their QBs read and run better, could be winless. Defensive line leaves too many run lanes open for the QB.

I think we have beat up on the O enough to know it will have a lot of issues scoring on SEC schools.

 

[VolMarine1371]

Yeah bc despite the score we look horrific. If you’re content with what you’re seeing, then you’ll be content with any pile of **** we put on the field

Bama struggled with Mercer for a quarter.

 

[VOL_Lyfe]

Not much since 2008 really just bad UT football the most exciting thing about it has been the coaching searches.

I miss the Great Grude days. Soon.

 

[VolsSportsFan]

You have to sign in to your provider. Your watching a preview which will time you out

No, the game is offered on both SEC+ and ESPN+. I have an ESPN+ subscription. The game was playing then stopped and I refreshed and it made me log in again. It's been happening off and on a week now.

 

[jarhead]

Do these game threads usually devolve in to a lot of whining and moaning?

Yes; Many of us are under the illusion that if we post it enough, somehow the coach will read it, listen, and it will come true. Simple internet logic.

 

[kiddiedoc]

Taylor really was trying to get a targeting call there

 

[Coug]

Heupel clearly saving his plays for Florida. Just wait and see!!!!!!

Yeah! Smoke show right now. The real playbook starts with FL.

 

[fossilfiction]

And you’ve done nothing but whine sugar. I agree we need to play better. I agree we will get killed by most SEC teams playing like this. This is still way better than under Pruitt and we’re still winning 21-0. So definitely room for improvement but it could be much worse.

You are something else my lady. Nobody is saying it isn't better than under Pruitt. Only you keep brining that up. Dooley was better than Pruitt. Jones was way better than Pruitt. Being better than the team was under the worst coach in TN history is not a flex you should embrace. This performance does not look good despite the points. That was and is my point.

 

[Russdaddy2027]

Do you understand the word “mobile”?

Neither has said he plays “safe” with the ball……..or that he is awesome.

however he has shown to be “mobile”…….and you know it.

then you simply……..changed the subject…..by presenting a straw man.

“No SEC team is losing sleep…..”

Heck they ain’t over Bailey either……but that wasn’t the argument.

If you cant hold the ball when you attempt to be “mobile” then you are not mobile. Glimpses of mobility dont win ballgames. JG showed glimpses of talent too and that was great for UT. I stand by position, give Bailey a chance

 

[irish1485]

Serious question: what do you think next week will look like?

Serious Answer: we will get killed no matter who we play at QB, RB, WR, OL..

 

[VolsSportsFan]

Bama struggled with Mercer for a quarter.

There it is.

 

[VOL_Lyfe]

Do these game threads usually devolve in to a lot of whining and moaning?

You must be new.

 

[sona]

I don't think it means much if HB comes in. Doesn't seem that Heupel has included him in his plan. I will be shocked if HB doesn't hit the portal.

 

[whodeycin85]

And if he shows out then you Bailey haters will shut up.

Showing out against Tenn Tech...thats like showing out against 4th team in a spring game

 

[lifeisdeep]

A funeral

More like a funeral pyre...

 

[Rickyvol77]

Yeah bc despite the score we look horrific. If you’re content with what you’re seeing, then you’ll be content with any pile of **** we put on the field

Just win. I don’t care about anything else. Same as next week or any other game

 

[JonGrudensAgent]

Yes not trying to show Fla anything today!

They are doing a phenomenal job.

 

[orange_glory]

D and special teams look good

 

[IluvdoubleD's]

unless you have been holding back and not showing your hand, the sec is going to destroy this highschool spread.


what's the name of the TT back up qb? i need to know who to put money on in the hiesman.

 

[LordVOLdemort]

And if he shows out then you Bailey haters will shut up.

Happily
