a chance to win out and make a much needed bowl game in a rebuilding season..Dobbs played great and will hopefully get better..Proud of the effort of this team,they could have folded down 27 but made a game of it..IMO, we will all look back at this season when UT is playing for an SEC title in a couple of years after having put the smack down on bama and after Lame has them on probation and Satan in firing him and we will all be laughing..Go Vols!

With Dobbs we beat FL......and maybe UGA. He gives us the best chance to get 6 wins.

maybe. You, nor anyone else has a clue if we could have won with a different QB. Dobbs is your flavor of the moment, nothing more, nothing less.

Yep, think back to Dobbs vs Mizzou last year, nobody was singing his praises then. Kid had a good game yesterday in terms of spark, but he has to get more accurate with the arm to carry a team. maybe. You, nor anyone else has a clue if we could have won with a different QB.

Dobbs shows me hope, where I had none before.

The motion carries. But he looked better last night than at any point last season, by a considerable margin IMHO.

And you know for sure we wouldn't have? I have an opinion which is just as good as yours whether you like it or not. I could give a rats a$$ if you agree with my opinion or not. Dobbs isn't perfect and will make mistakes...I saw the QB for the #1 team in the land make mistakes against KY too. Dobbs is made for the offense UT is trying to run and is the best option on campus right now to run it and can overcome things that Worley doesn't have the ability to do. BTW: I could care less about your opinion too, nothing more, nothing less.

A extra year in the program can might a big difference. Dobbs played the last 2 games with a hurt hand last year but he was the only option we had left.

I didn't hear his hand was hurt. Thought that was Peterman.

It was Ferguson who had a leg injury. It may be that Dobbs hurt his hand, and Peterman was just not allowed to play. Worley DID hurt his hand. I'm still not sure Dobbs was ever injured. Maybe the other board experts can weigh in.

worley and Peterman both broke their thumbs Ferguson had a stress fracture in the leg Dobbs may or may not have had a significant injury but the real issue was poor execution and decision making, which he apparently continued into the spring (except for the O&W game) and into the fall Various reports recently indicated improvement and perhaps the "light" had come on

Correct....it was Fergie that had the leg injury and Peterman the thumb. We've had so many QB issues I got them mixed up. I did hear Butch in a presser after the Vandy game say what people didn't know Dobbs played the last 2 games with a hurt hand/wrist.

Dobbs came off the bench last year in the Alabama game and looked like a world beater. His performance in each game after that was not good. It will take alot more than one game with Dobbs to convince me hes giving TN a chance to win and get to a bowl game.

Well oddly that's good news...it means the dobbs we saw sat is less of a mirage than we may think.
