Game Thread: Tennessee @ #2 Georgia 3:30 EST, CBS

[Chewbaccer]

How this game got to be the SEC game of the week is beyond me, I guess name power sells. South Carolina-Kentucky or Florida-Mississippi State are better matchups on paper anyways.

Tennessee hasn't looked good at all this season, but I'm sure they're seeking revenge for the 41-0 beatdown in Knoxville last season, so Georgia had better not expect a cake walk.

I'd like to see them play a clean game for once this season.

I'm nervous for every game, this one is no different. GO DAWGS!!!

A laffer by halftime.

A laffer by halftime.

Hopefully. But as sloppy as the team has played all year, it might be more interesting than it needs to be.

 

[Chewbaccer]

5 minutes. About that time fellers.

In B4 @WC. Moses comes in and starts whining about something

Was hoping this would be a 10:30 PM kickoff on the NHL Network.

Save yourself the time and don't watch this stupid game. There are better games on or about to start.

Viles beat the +30.5.

You're sweet.

The run defense is becoming a cause for concern.

I believe the youngsters will get better as the season goes on, but they still have a lot of work to do.

 

[Golden Spur]

Sounds like Pruitt doesn't have control of the program. May take a couple years to get the problem players out from the Butch era.

 

[Chewbaccer]

That ain't how it was drawn up, but I'll take it.

TOUCHDOWN!!!

That play was so Tennessee.

 

[Chewbaccer]

5 star junior tight end. He's been a bit of a disappointment, and even his missed block is why the pressure got to Fromm to cause the fumble, but good for him for picking up the ball and then running it in for a TD when everyone would have been fine if he just fell on it and saved the FG attempt.

 

[Chewbaccer]

And it appears that Elijah Holyfield has taken over as the starting RB from D'Andre Swift, not that it really matters, all 4 backs will get their share of carries, but Holyfield put in a lot of work in the offseason and he has been good this year, always like to see hard work pay off.

 

[Golden Spur]

Gonna be interesting to see if Kirby puts Fields in today. #redshirtByeBye

They're doing the same thing we did against UGA - doing little things wrong in a game where you gotta do everything right.

3 formation penalties on punts. That's embarrassing, but I've gotta say, it was 4th and inches, what does Tennessee have to lose by going for it on 4th and short?
