If Hooker isn't amped up and over throwing receivers, and we contain AR and their running game, we should win fairly easily.        

First I'm hearing of this, I hope it's just enough to prevent him from being effective....then he can be awesome next week.              

him thus far, meaning he was trying to be more of a pocket passer and wasn't running when the opportunity was there and instead forcing passes. I expect Florida is going to run, run, and run some more Sat, I hope our D can shut 'em down. AR has clearly demonstrated that he can't carry the O with his arm, the running threat is what breaks Ds down and opens up the passing. The two running backs are very good and if you throw AR in there, with just enough passes to keep our LBs and DBs honest, it's going to mean we have to be physical and tackle extremely well (i.e. no 4-6 yrds after contact).         

The lack of production from the RBs is due to lack of dominance by the OL IMO. The RBs rarely get more than a yard beyond the LOS before they're hit. I also think that throwing slants and to the TEs more would give the LBs more to be concerned about and prevent them from filling the gaps so quickly (Pitt's LBs did this extremely well).         

 

    

IIRC they tried him at LB and TE but he just couldn't win a starting job anywhere.          

I liked Chance on Hulu.          

That's what I said the instant I heard it reported! Talk about unprofessional; it's nothing short of defamation....and based on a tweet by an Ark fan? Absolutely no effort to verify the veracity of the rumor, I don't think they wanted to spoil the opportunity to bash Tennessee...AGAIN. Sue 'em!          

I see it as them being relaxed and just having fun playing baseball at THE University of Tennessee!        

For better or worse.

No knock on the kid himself, I hope he kills it in Knoxville. And I’m glad we’re actually swimming in the deep end of the NIL pool (I didn’t think we would).

But $8M for a kid who’s never taken a college snap? This is bad for college sports. We’re just building a giant house of cards here. 

IMO it comes down to this: the facts are the die has been cast and either we adapt or we can forget again being competitive at the top level.          

I really liked the free episode but refuse to be sucked in to purchasing yet another channel.....it ain't gonna change my life either way.         

    

it tells me my credentials are incorrect?

The ability to transfer at any point during the season is what needs to change IMO. Transfers should only be allowed at the end of the season, or establish a specified period during the season (1 week) so a coach doesn't have to wonder who he's got to play with week to week.          

the Music City Bowl against Penn St and Franklin. That would be a very exciting matchup for me, we owe Penn St from earlier years and a chance to humble Franklin is impossible to pass up!      

Pirate sees it precisely as do I, very good and objective breakdown Pirate! I think we win (of course this is based on if we truly have been able to get our RBs, QB and others rested and healthy) fairly easily, something in the neighborhood of Vols 34  Cats 17. GO VOLS !       

Congrat's Braves (especially happy for Freddy). I just wish we hadn't lost Sports South and could watch more during the regular season.       

It's a coin flip, imo.  Which is alot better odds than anyone expected about 4-5 weeks ago.

I agree IF everyone is healthy. We especially need Small and Evans both healthy and ready to share the load. It became evident late in the 2nd quarter that Evans was wearing down and there's a huge drop off in talent after those two.         

Yeah Pirate I just heard Stetson will be the QB. Hogs will be psyched and I thought Ga could win fairly easily late in the game but not without JT healthy and running the offense. I think the Hogs have a good shot for an upset now.

Has anyone heard of Hooker is starting and if so, is he healthy? I can't find out anything on him.          

I think Arkansas can keep it a ball game for most of the first half but Dawgs win going away IMO.         

IMO Hooker shouldn't play again unless ALL other options have been explored. He's horrible!          

Yeah I heard Arky's coach say that, but I mean honestly it's rare someone goes undefeated in our conference and I'd say 10-3 in the SEC would be acceptable after 6 years, heck we held onto Fulmer with him going up and down like a yoyo. I'd 10-3 every year over what I've endured the past 20, we've become irrelevant over the past decade (I don't say this lightly, my blood runs as orange as any).       

I think Ky will beat Fla. Ky's QB is mobile enough to keep plays alive and makes quick decisions and very accurate throws. I think they end up 2nd in the East and Ark may be 2nd in the west....I just can't believe these 2 have turned their programs around while we've been attempting to for TWENTY years!          

I hope he's ok but his presence won't be the difference in the game. Pitt will put 7-8 in the box and force Milton to throw and it will be sacks and INTs galore.
