i doubt we beat Mizzou but we might have a fighting chance against Vandy if we can keep their offense off the field...and as badly as UK has played this yr we will ROLL over them this yr!! yep 5-7 is your final and we miss a bowl yet again....sorry folks!

That would require our genious coaching staff to slow down the tempo and snap it under 4 seconds left on the play clock.....this offensive staff just don't give a $#!T like a honeybadger...they are going to snap the ball with 27 seconds or more on the play clock.

Dooley wants to get the defense more practice quickly with live game speed during each game...Sal says it is supposed to be a bend don't break defense but right now it is simply bent.

This is what most of college football has come to. That is why Kent State can beat an undefeated Rutgers and UL Monroe can beat Auburn and Bama in a 5 year period span. There is a lot of parity. With the scholly numbers reduced and academic standards raised, a lot of SunBelt teams will have 3 and 4 star recruits in skilled positions. I just think we have seen a hurdle crossed as far as Bray is concerned and the D finally was able to make a 4th quarter stop to win the game. Heck, Miss State barely beat Troy this year.

What a load of crap. You're making excuses for a piss poor product on the field.

Anyone thinking rationally would have watched the game and concluded our defense sucks out loud. Troy watched our game film and figured out how easy it was to scorch our secondary, and that's what they did.

And for what it's worth, every team we've played has "matched up well" against our defense.

We didn't cross a hurdle, turn a corner, or anything else. We squeaked out a win against a very inferior team who came in to our house and broke an all time yards record on our squad.

We should have been well into our three deep by the fourth quarter. People waiting to see the field all year long should have gotten that opportunity Saturday.

Instead, we were in a battle to the end of the game. WITH TROY!!!!!

We won the game. In times past I have seen us lose these games. I am just glad we pulled it out. I am not like some of you who want us to lose in order to get a new coach. I want us to win.

Excuses are for Vandy and Kentucky. We are Tennessee. The 2nd winningest team in SEC football history. This team is not SEC Tennessee level football. Our starters had no business to be in the game by the 3rd quarter....because it should not have been a game by that time.

DD will be the HC at UT in 2013, Only changes will come on D. Sal fired and some Asst.
As much as these times are tough for us UT fans. We still need to support our team. DD did not hire Sal. Hart hired Sal and he should be fired also. As far as our O, we have look real good for the most part. And that is the side that DD is heavly involved.

Well I'm glad you're happy. Also, I see what you did there with the straw man. Solid work.

Are you really peed off because we won a game? I do not care if the score is 89 to 90 as long as we win!

Defense did what it needed to do and Bray proved he was money. We are going to roll in the last 3 games and bowl!

As a VFL, I hope you are right. As a rational thinking realist I think your cheese is slipping off your cracker.

Either way, I'll be cheering. GBO
