The 96 run by Graham is one of mine.  I watched the game with a diehard bama fan (yeah, yeah, I know--but he was also related, so no choice.)  When Jay took it to the house I said "Damn, I must have accidently put in the tape of last years game."  He failed to appreciate the humor

It's not my favorite but I love the 75 yarder by Jay Graham. The camera man got a picture of the DB from the Endzone... it was classic.

I have no problem going to clock draining, but run the offense instead of making "run" the offense. 

Late game play calling. Got conservative up 38-21 and let UF back in the game.

Pretty much agree with all, but I would add that pass protection must improve.  This is a far more experienced OL now, yet we didn't block run or pass very well.  Still, with the offense not hitting on all cylinders and with horrible punt/return play----we won.  How many time would that have happened in the last 15 years? 

The Vols need to start putting teams away when they have the chance. Second half, numerous times we had that shot but blew it with stupid penalties and dropping passes . That killer instinct..... getting that 4th down play.....etc

Some things I liked
- DL is getting better, they really knocked around the PITT OL and QB in first half
- Hadden keeps playing well, need more of him
- FG kicking

Some things that need to be corrected
- Punting, special teams - ugly
- Run game was weak. Wright has more explosion but you can't fumble. Would have liked to see Sampson
- Hooker needs to look for more guys than Tilman. Need to see more thrown to Bru

Peyton, Casey, Dewey Warren

Pitt-Fla-LSU-Ky. I would like to say I have confidence we can go 3-1, but I have got to see the defense on the field first.

Hope you enjoy it as much as I have.  I retired on the exact day I turned 59.5 and have never looked back. Some people miss working but I am really good at being retired. Enjoy!

Hire a team of headhunters for 24/7/365 recruiting.  Way too far, hope it dies, but it probably has a real chance to pass.

That's because NIL in Lexington is NIL-BB

He may be honorary captain against uSC

Stats line from his first game:

 8 points, 4 assists, 4 rebounds, 4 steals and 3 blocks

Great line to highlight his complete game---but 3 BLOCKS, wow---how does he block 3 at this level.

Touches the heart and mind of every Vols fan who has a permanent place for John Ward in their heart and mind.  Beautifully written.  Thank you.

57-9

I just see it as a Saban vs Jimbo deal. 

Yeah, but this is the guy who makes Mickelson's gambling look penny ante.

Barkley said he'd kill a relative for $200 million  The USA has always loved on Saudi Arabia. Amirite? Not being "political"... Being real.

Based on the army of Ohio (excuse me, THE Ohio) cars on I-75 in the summer,  I suspect they are already channeling Sherman.  I would note that they are just as welcome, and just as arrogant.

Who's gonna be the Big Ten savior that goes on a scorched-earth march to the sea to break the spirits of the SEC? 

Same basic states tried this back in 1860.  Did not go well.  I suspect a CFB breakaway would not go as envisioned.

Kenny Payne known as one of the best big man coaches in the country.  As a Cards fan, this is good news, hope it works.

Probably more upside than anyone on the team, but he is definitely not there yet.  Hate to see him go, but if he thinks his work is done to be a complete player, I wish him well in proving it elsewhere if he sees that as the answer.

First off, I could not care less how someone identifies, none of my business.  BUT, show some respect for the integrity of competition.  How can anyone have any pride in their accomplishment as a schoolyard bully beating up the little kids.  It is incredibly disrespectful to the women who have spent countless hours over many years to develop their bodies and technique to be able to compete in their sport, only to face a genetic difference in muscular development that cannot be overcome.  So if this female identifier takes any pride in their success, they show no respect for the sport, and no respect for their "chosen" sex.  

When you lose your go to guy, you gotta expect a drop in performance.

When I was there we were in the top 10. Maybe top 5.

Oh, this younger generation.

Read on another site, famed for accuracy, from a guy whose barber is also barber to a highly placed insider that the package is around a quarter mil up front, and then 2 mil each year on the roster.  I will be checking with my barber next trip to see if this guy has any street cred.

My question is: Are they making seasonal agreements or college career agreements? I was going to say this is going to get ugly... but it already has.

And Belmont showed how far hustle can take you--not only did they never quit--they never slowed down!

The lady Vols stole that one.  What a 3 by Puckett!

They really looked terrible in the second half.   No hustle whatsoever

Officiating was horrible that entire game both teams.  Terrible calls and terrible no calls.  Entertaining game though with the near miss historic choke job by UNC.

How about that time Dobbs almost threw a ball in a barrel?  That Butch knew how to put on a show.

Frankly, not a big loss at all.  Rather than a gimmicky "game" the team can accomplish an actual scrimmage that  will be more beneficial to their development

Out of the last several years the only item of value that came out of the O&W game is that Tillman gave us a preview last spring
