UT vs. WK *Official Game Thread*

[VolsByNature]

Where's the naysayers? Hiding I'm sure

Oh, did anyone see T-Pain at the rock? Crazy...

I am gonna watch the Florida game. I hate Florida but I respect Tim Tebow. I hope Florida beats Troy like we beat WK.

Any chance of a ranking next week or are we still a week or two away?

 

[MphsBlues]

I want to see more of Poole. He seems to find the ground personally revolting - HATES to go down. All backs do, but I loved the way he fought to keep his feet.

 

[JJ_Hickman_07]

You couldn't ask for much more

 

[govols35]

Well if you want my completely biased opinion, I believe we are going to work like heck and surprise the country! Tennessee FTW!!!! I'm really pleased with today's game. Especially when I see a team like Iowa struggling against FCS Northern Iowa.

Hey, we all have opinions but no doubt Kiffin is gonna work them very hard and they will probably come out on top. I hope, but I ain't for sure yet.

 

[TENN]

Great start boys..... very impressed

 

[checkerboards09]

I know its western kentucky but u gotta love this. The freshman really stepped up. Can we say "stacked" at running back, good Lord.

 

[GIVEHIM-6]

Georgia - OSU about to get underway.

 

[volfan900]

Jesus!!! Florida has 11 starters returning on Defense. Kiffin work on the offense, please...

Need to beat FL for that to happen

 

[ocoeerivervol]

how bout the ol. no confusion

 

[MoeCephus]

Wow...the most points scored for the Vols since 2000. I knew it had been a while.

 

[UTah VOL]

poole should be #2 rb imo. i like them all, just seemed like he ran harder than the other three.

 

[aredfox28]

line looked great

 

[MDBJJC]

Love those stats. Feels like the mid 1990s Vols again. I swear that was what it was like at the game. I just felt like we were back, now I know WKU was a sorry team. Great teams put up numbers like this against crappy teams. We WOULD NEVER put these numbers up last year.

 

[GLDunlap]

I know it's Western Kentucky but our running backs are something else...........

I wonder how long Fulmer stayed at the game before he tucked his tail and slipped out the back. I bet he was shocked to learn that it is legal to play true freshman afterall.

lotta wins away,,

 

[tri_vol]

He was also running against a worn out defense. That might have played a role.

 

[volfan900]

I am getting off here guys! See y'all next week. Great win Vols.

 

[BJWeeks]

How does everyone feel about nukeese at punt returner? Could just be nerves being first game. Kinda concerned.

No. He looks good and will play a lot this year, but Bryce Brown is a superstar in the making. He and Hardesty are our studs.
