The Official Tennessee vs. UAB Game Thread, 7:00 PM ET, ESPNU

[Mccage]

Maurer is healing. JG is playing hurt but is plenty serviceable enough to win this game easily. If JT plays and takes a hit and gets injured, then JG is all we have "healthy" for the time being against much tougher competition on the way.

Finally someone on here with some since! Thank you

What did he say?

Picked UAB and said we haven’t been good since 2001.

Matt Simms

I do remember dreading Simms...and to a lesser extent rick... but nothing like this.

Nothing. Like. This.

And IIRC neither was BOOED just for coming in the game. Dont remember seeing that before at home.

7 and 15 as a starter. He just threw a pick against a team we should be beating either 31 or 35 to nothing. Started nearly every drive on THEIR end of the field...and have 2 TDs...1 of which JG was on the bench for.

What an effing joke. I am kinda glad he threw YET ANOTHER ENDZONE PICK...sad to say...because now we SHOULDNT see him in the 2nd half. Shrout cant play worse than that...he just cant. He has by all accounts the strongest arm on the team. He would have at least 2 more passing TDs were he in the game...what a joke. What a damn joke

 

[MeanOrange]

I wish he would knock his head off

Ouch! LMAO.

 

[1967vol]

I will give 100 dollars cash to anyone in the media to ask CJP if he has any idea how to coach a football team .. I will need to hear it in the presser and I promise I will pay up .

That isn't nearly enough money to ask that question.

 

[Volsfaninva917]

Yeah JG didn't drive us to the redzone.Lmao

Hey where did you go?

I've NEVER been so angry and turned off a UT game where they were up 23-0 at half. I'm baffled at Pruitt. I'm no longer mad at JG, it's on Pruitt. With all the gifts UAB has given Tennessee this should be 40+. Dampers all hope I had regarding the final 3 games. Playing this way we will lose all 3. Is it going to take JG dying on the field for Pruitt to finally pull him? What is it going to take? Seriously?

Man Pruitt drops to the bottom of the totem pole again for this gimmick tonight. Just because he wants to. I'm baffled he would do a kid like he did tonight. JT is going to start..oh wait..just a play or two. WOW. He did a lot for JT's hopes.

 

[ABINGDON VOL FAN]

I'm sorry, but right now we just don't have a starting SEC QB, period. JG will never be one, the freshman might get there?

The freshman will not get there if they don’t play. Especially with the starters.

 

[volbound1700]

JG doesn't deserve all the blame. It is pathetic that we cannot run the ball on this team. Should be getting 5 yards per run.

 

[Jpcisco]

Here’s a serious question; for every ef up that JG does, and we all know he will ef up, why does CJP continue to play him? This is crazy, you keep screaming at him for efing up, I mean what in that stupid head of yours thinks is going to happen? Duh... sit him and play someone else

Insanity, doing the same thing over and over expecting a different result. Makes me question Pruitt's ability to lead this team. He better have some damn good answers in the presser...

 

[give_him 6]

Bryce Thompson going for 6 INTs tonight

 

[DoolTool]

We got two gunslingers sitting on the bench with a QB with a cast on . For the love of god, how does this make any sense??? Ridiculous

I wouldn’t play Mauer. Maybe he’s hoping for the best (or worst)

 

[IamScaredOfTrees]

Picked UAB and said we haven’t been good since 2001.

He picked Tennessee.

Naw I’m not there. Defense is playing lights out and taking absolute advantage of UAB’s offense.

This is one of those games we have the luxury of complaining.

 

[BigOrangeAl 1979]

Well we got a great FG kicker

 

[cobbwebb0710]

Has any Dback in the history of college football had four interceptions in one game?

I don’t know about interceptions, but Jake Fromm once threw 4 touchdowns and he’s a huge Dbag...
GBO!!

It is sad that you're glad UT threw an interception.

 

[VOLstuckinKY2]

That isn't nearly enough money to ask that question.

I will add an additional 100.

 

[KeyVol14]

Would y'all quit whining were up 23-0 with a injured qb

 

[DoyleMcOrange]

Finally someone on here with some since! Thank you

Sence.

 

[Knox-a-rue]

What's up with the announcers... Can't say Guarantanos name, don't know the name of our starting running back.

These guys are a joke.

 

[99Vol]

Crossing my fingers, would like the option to give Thompson the nickname "Quattro" after tonight's game...

 

[PA Vol]

I’m listening to the game ....what’d he say?

A big F bomb.

 

[OleRockyTop]

NOW KEEP JG OUT
