Something I've noticed that I find very disheartening. We seem like a very weak team. We get physically dominated by almost every team we play. Our hallmark used to be a strong and nasty physical team. I miss John Stuckey.

Our d-line seems to get dominated and the Db's except for berry play soft. Yeah i believe its time for a new strength and conditioning coach.

I don't know if weak is the right word, but in the second halves this year, the team has definitely looked more sluggish than the first.

I've always said that Tennessee is a 3rd and 4th quarter team, but I haven't been able to say it once this year.

we just seem to get manhandled. Esp by any rb that's over 215 lbs. I still have Tony Brown's words ringing in my ears.

UT has the worst defense I've seen on the hill. They can't tackle. They are out of position. What's the deal?

I just know that right now we won. You can't take excitement into anything. We have another chance to win the East. Enjoy it for at least a moment rex.

I'll continue to say it. Now I know why the Fulmerites call us non Fulmerites NegaVols. They're dead on. 99% of us could never be happy. We won, we beat Steve Spurrier

Beating spurrier is always good no matter what. Winning doesn't hide the fact this is still a bad team. Last night leaves one wondering what surprises are left for us this year.

we beat a spurrier team that lost to vandy and just scored 6 points... but the fact is we are completely different team in the second half... winning or losing... we come out flat after halftime... i wonder what happens in the halftime... wish we could hear some CPF half time talk... may be CPF plays LOU's pep talk :eek:lol:

Yes we do, negavol.

It is time to get behind this team.

Am I confident -- no. But Arky, Vandy, and Ky ARE beatable.

It may be ugly, and it will be tough. Our youngsters need to keep improving over the next month -- there is room for it.

The standings and even Fulmer's track record against the remaining teams says it is possible.

How can you keep a straight face and say it is not.

We shouldn't have beat Arkansas in 98 but I didn't hear "Arkansas mor lost than we won"!! There are no style points just a W or an L!!

Did you see what Boyd did to us? McFadden will have 250+ yards. All of you guys need to leave Mr Rourke and Tattoo behind, leave Fantasy Island, and join reality. We are an extremely medicore team that barely survived after being spotted at 21 point lead. You guys crack me up.....go ahead and buy your ticket to Atlanta. By the way, Im very happy that we beat SOS, but I also watched the game and I didnt do it through orange-tinted glasses.

McFadden ran through Alabama like bad mexican food. Bama still won.

I'm not expecting UT to win out. I think UT loses at least 1 more game. But McFadden has been superhuman all year and look at their record.

For what it's worth, there was an interesting stat in the TFP today. Foster has averaged 5.7 ypc, your boy McFadden has averaged 5.5
