Looked pretty good on defense though. I'm still not convinced they're as good as everybody says though.

And App State just scored a TD off that fumbled punt. Tenn defense didn't look all that great on that series ... gave up lots of rushing yards, and the TD.
I'm with ya, I'm not buying into the Tennessee hype just yet. That being said they have a soft schedule. When are teams gonna quit scheduling app state. Dang I wouldn't want to play them. They come into these games with nothing to lose.
They are getting gashed up the middle. Not a great start to the hyped year of the Vol. 7-0 App State.
Yea, I like the TD, and I'd like to see TN lose, but not to App State. Makes the SEC look bad, in turn makes us look bad.
App St. has a better o-line than we do.
UT sure ain't looking like national champs so far.
The SEC Network announcer sure is a Tennessee homer. I know he's well known from his voice, but can't place who he is.
It's musburger and Jesse PalmerQuote:

Yes, of course. Musburger.Quote:

Hype doesn't execute plays. When the ball is kicked off, we find out who can play and who can't.

Haha. But only if you make the extra point. They missed. 13-3.
Rocky Top is silent right now.
App St. Leads 13-3
The App St OL is pushing Tn around. I hope they beat Tn and it's looking good right now. They and their coach are about as arrogant in the East as UNM in the West. I hope the missed x point doesn't come back to haunt them.
Preseason predictions in college football(except Bama) are almost completely useless. Teams and players change way to much from year to year.Quote:

I'm loving this. I hope App State has some gas in the tank during the second half.
