Final Tennessee thoughts

Yeah... we are going to boat race them jokers. You people be pissing me off acting like they are some big slugger and we are just the sluggers doormat. This isn't last year and they aren't anything more special this year than last, but we are ten times better in all facets of the game.

-our house
-qb set to prove something
-team set to prove something
-coach set to prove something
-fan base is going to be electric. I would put it up there with the 2014 Auburn, a$m games


Tennessee
-untested qb
-suspect secondary
-weak mental fortitude
-it's freaking Tennessee

New prediction. Daaaaawgs 49- Tropicana 31

I like your vibe. I'm as negative as they come but I have a good feeling about this game for some reason too.

Inspiring thoughts Maverick. I like what your saying.

Gotta lace up the cleats. Might as well go win it while you?re at it

Love your optimism but I have a question. Did you start your tailgate a little early?

I'd love nothing more than to lose my vcash today. Unfortunately I believe I'm going to be virtually richer at the end of the day.

DaWWWWWgs finna eat, baby

Interesting. Syracuse has managed just three points against Duke early in the 3rd. They scored 26 against Tennessee.

Yes. Yes, I did. Currently killing some cookies and cream ice cream.

Bama is wearing out UGA.........dammit i see LK and the lawyers walking into the CFP.......dammit

I'm not as upset as I think I should be. Maybe it's getting older and not caring as much since the Saints were robbed in 18. I think it's more that we still exceeded expectations in this game. There are plays we can Monday morning qb and bitch about but we just went toe to toe with IMO a top 5-7 team. It sucks but I'm more optimistic than upset.

excellent

This game showed me what I feared. And that's that Shapen is not a big game guy. Everything I was saying about him was hoping he would step up.

He is not going to elevate us beyond our mistakes. That's on Lebby to exact discipline.

I disagree. Every mistake today was beatable with a good QB. He was average today, did nothing that made you go "dang that was good"

I understand. He is AVERAGE. But he will excel on occasion. And we don't have a QB who can give us more. But he can give us two more to go bowling.

DIS-o-Gree!!! A dual threat Qb wins that game for us tonight. Shapen is not even close to a dual threat QB.

Right because the touchdown that Thompson dropped or the FG the Ferrie missed would not have made a difference in the ballgame. Great game observation!

We had 6 key players go down with injuries. SIX! That?s too much to overcome

Don't forget being speared in the back which would've jarred the ball from anyone.

He excels on occasion. But for every time he excels, he will will blow an opportunity as well. His biggest issue is he thinks he is quicker than he really is.

and he is the best current option

I wonder if he is indeed 6' 2". I think he often has issues seeing the field as he stays in a too many times collapsing pocket.

He's 5'11 at best.

Nah. I’m 6’ even and was talking to him yesterday. He’s a good couple inches taller than me. Shapen is actually very fast…in a straight line. He doesn’t quite have the shiftiness that is required to be a true dual threat. And, for some reason, he’s missing some open receivers the past few games. That pick 6 and scoop and score were killers for us. Not saying we would have won by 14 if they didn’t happen but I do believe we would have won. He just needs to cinch up the belt and get us two more wins. I think we can take 2 of Arkansas, Florida, Texas, and Ole Miss. anything more than that is gravy and puts us waaaaaaaay ahead of where I thought we would be this year.

I don’t know that I ever had a doctor measure my height…at least not since highschool sports days and it was 6’ back then. Now…that’s been 30 years ago so maybe I shrunk? Haha

Don't sell yourself short. lol

I remember looking up at Manning on the field when Fant beat him Eli’s sophomore egg bowl. I’m a strong 6’4”.....and I was looking up a little......

I actually argue that we overcame it. We just didn't execute on the final play.
