The defense is playing extremely well and the offense, in my opinion, will keep getting better. Also, the Vols seems to be able to play multiple styles whether it's hurry up, slow it down, run, big play, or play the clock and kick field goals. If they keep improving, the Vols could be a legitimate not just playoff, but championship contender.
Just win. These people who know nothing about football are the ones who expect the most. Gotta use this bye week to get healthy and move on. Those people kill me. If they called the game like those people wanted it called they would’ve got Nico killed. Dayne Davis can’t play tackle. Sorry to say but he can’t. He’s too slow. And Larry Johnson just don’t have experience. Those people don’t know how good Oklahomas defense is. It MIGHT be the best defense we face all year. If it ain’t the best it’s one of them.
Coach Heupel could have pushed harder and ran up the score but at what price? More injuries? Turnovers? This was smart football played in an emotional atmosphere. Im really suprised they contained there emotions as well as they did for 4 quarters. This was a textbook example of game management maturity. It showed exceptional restraint and professionalism. GBO!!!
I agree Even though our Vols won you gotta give that Oklahoma Defense their roses they a good D if that Offense could find a QB and get their Tackles healthy Oklahoma would win alot of games 💯 and I'm #AllVol 💯 have been for 28 years over half of my life but I give credit where Credit is due. And Tennessee defense is Elite 💯 that's facts and they will win Tennessee alot of games this season with their elite play 💯! GB🍊🏈
@@terrycollins9744 No it didn't, Didn't make any difference.What call you make with these guys. This is. The most dominant line possibly in the country, With a platoon of linebackers
@@fredstriker2042 You had 8 in the box and we ran up the middle all night, that tells me that we didn’t want to blow you out, we had mercy for y’all because Coach is from there
That is the BEST I've seen a Tennessee Defense play since the 90's. Period. SUPERB JOB of Coaching. I still say, we would be screwed without Dane Davis.
Yeah I agree 💯 this is the best Defense Tennessee has had since 1998 that's 💯 and they gonna win Tennessee alot of games this season 💯 I am here for it and can't wait for 2wks to go to Fayetteville and beat Arkansas 💯! GB🍊🏈
Really proud of Nico ....Stayed calm cool and collected in an environment that was everything but that...Nico could have got rattled and melted like the opposing qb did....Great defense and a great win...Go Big 🍊
I understand needing to protect your QB and playing with backup tackles, but I expect more innovations to create match-ups. Halzle needs to have more in the bag for these types of scenarios. RB screens, TE screens, draws, personnel and formations. We aren't the first team in football history to have to play with backup tackles. They could have put Bru, Ethan Davis, and Staes in trips and ran WR screen and fake WR screen and go to Davis to force Oklahoma to declare and lighten the box.
My fav part of this team is when OU got the ball on their own 3-ish yard line I thought "this defense could get a safety" and wham bam we did on the first play, Go Vols
I agree. Need to add that element going forward. I think they have it but knew OU couldn’t score and also the field conditions were not good. Don’t want your QB getting injured on that turf
@BlindVeganRescue go back look i posted when we first got him from penn state that he was gonna be a great DC for us , everyone has not given him credit he deserves, but i been on the train that he was worth a million a year when we first got him and most saud he wasn't, not bandwagon posters like most of the channel.😂
We ran the ball up the middle with 8 in the box all night, looked like we were trying not to score. I think coach didn’t want to lose friends by blowing them out
Dane Davis is gonna get Nico killed. He got absolutely whooped by that front 7. We need heard to suck it up and play. We literally abandoned the pass game for the sake of Nico. But on a positive note our defense has continued to impress
Sugar coat it but there were other ways to have played conservative. Great win all that. But just run up middle every time almost come back to haunt them.
Karma hit them.on faking those injuries. Its crazybthat Venables playingbthat way against Heupel. Thats like punching in the nuts in an MMA fight. Cowardly
Efficient? They averaged 3 points with plus field position. It’s almost like Oklahoma may be able to sell out to stop the run/screen cause Joey is too damn scared to push the ball down the field.
Nico needs to expedite the mental time clock when in the pocket. Tuck it and run and quit staying in the pocket so long . Watch some Hendon Hooker highlights.
@@TennesseeVolunteersFootball Bitching about the playcalling in the second half saying you are not a fan. I mean geez down two starting tackles, current tackles were getting worked and going to get Nico killed and bring OU back in the football game if we didn’t call a conservative game. The only way they get back in the game is if you were aggressive on offense and get our qb killed. Not fancy and they didn’t score 50 but had to protect our qb and the lead.
Every VOL should be proud of how they played last night. Obviously there's some things that need to be improved on, but overall they played hard, on the road, at night, and this wasn't a normal road game! There's a lot of behind the scene stuff that was going on beside the Heupel homecoming, or college game day! All things considered, I think they all did well, besides the two fups on Nico losing the ball! Then we have the fu@king refs and their bs calling once again! Call it some tinfoil hat stuff, but I think the zebra asshats have it out for the VOLS! Prove me wrong. That crap has been going on for several years now, and it's obvious!!! GBO!!!
Defense is legit! Please don't let Tim Banks go anywhere! GBO!!!!!!!!! 🍊🏈💯
Can't expect a great game on the ground with back up tackles! A win was all that mattered last night and we got it
A win is a win on the road in the SEC top 15 program. GO VOLS

You know Tim Banks is having fun this year
100%. Unrealistic to expect TN to put 35+ on that stout defense. Play smart and lean on your defense when it’s dominating. Just win baby
Just win. These people who know nothing about football are the ones who expect the most. Gotta use this bye week to get healthy and move on. Those people kill me.

We could have easily in the late third and 4th quarters with OU's gassed defense. We simply did not need to though.
Elite win and Heupel called a perfect game.
Definitely could have put up more points but the game was over at the half
Coach Heupel could have pushed harder and ran up the score but at what price? More injuries? Turnovers? This was smart football played in an emotional atmosphere. Im really suprised they contained there emotions as well as they did for 4 quarters. This was a textbook example of game management maturity. It showed exceptional restraint and professionalism.

Oklahoma has a great defense. TN has a PHENOMENAL defense!
Outstanding comment

Tennessee play calling made them look better than they are

I don’t care how it comes, just go full Al Davis: “Just win baby win”
That is the BEST I've seen a Tennessee Defense play since the 90's. Period. SUPERB JOB of Coaching. I still say, we would be screwed without Dane Davis.
We would be screwed with Dayne…but he was an absolute liability in every way tonight. We had to change the play calls bc he was atrocious in pass sets
Without*
Yeah I agree 💯 this is the best Defense Tennessee has had since 1998 that's 💯 and they gonna win Tennessee alot of games this season 💯 I am here for it and can't wait for 2wks to go to Fayetteville and beat Arkansas 💯!

Venables had some looks for Nico. He handled it. Lots to look forward to GBO
Multiple defensive looks*

Should have more designed runs for Nico. Don't need to do it a lot, but more than tonight. The offense, overall, was meh. But a good win.

Tim banks needs to be payed and retained for sure, keep banks 💯 there goes austin with the "you knows" you know🎉
Way to go out on a limb.
It's probably just Rodney lol

Officiating was almost as bad as listening to kirk Herbstreit and Brad Fowler commentating the game.
The MVP of this program is Rodney Garner. He should be the highest paid assistant in the country.
1:05 Cainer caught cracking open a cold one???? 😂
Is Heard really injured or is it discipline?
GBO 🍊🏈 let’s go Big Orange Nation

Nico got hit in the head worse on the strip sack than we hit number 9 in the head on the roughing the passer call
No roughing the passer on them
Also can someone tell me if James pierce is even playing? He’s been non existent after all that hype
1st
Yes, yes. Postings are to be in an APA Format. SMH.
Cain with some lazy ass analysis. Preach Austin
And what was that? - Cain
