The clips are limited, but Nico's throws are spot on. No underthrows, no overthrows, no making receivers stretch out to make catches... can't say the same about the QB this time a year ago. If he can execute that way in games, plus add his mobility, the offense will hum.
That D line is going to be able to bring pressure every play. No more will there only be 1 - 2 players to stop. Every one of these guys can punch a hole through an offensive line. At least 4-5 defensive linemen will have to be stopped every snap.
Huepel isn’t going to give you squat about his team. He wants to low key everything. Even his pressers are vague and oblique. The most he’ll say about any player is he’s working hard and progressing and growing. He runs the offense well. Whatever that means. Forget getting a hint on what is in store for the opposition.
I’d argue we did in 2012 we had Pig Howard, Justin Hunter, Da’Rick Rogers, Cordarelle Patterson, Mychael Rivera, Jason Croom, Drae Bowles, DMoore… it was pretty stacked
@@GrannySingaporePVP I would say , bru McCoy , squirel white , mike Mathews . And either Thornton or Brazel will be in the nfl . I think only 2 of those guys played nfl football . Maybe 3 . We will see further down the line which one is better tho
I think even if TN were to drop the OU game, I still feel they beat Bama at home and a good shot at UGA in Athens. TN should be better than UGA on both sides of the ball. We are talking about Mike Bobo here as OC for UGA. 78 rushing yards vs Bama in the SECCG and 140 in passing? WE did better against them than that with Joe, Even a 13 point halftime lead. It's there, just have to put it together this season and stay healthy.
Every year it's the same thing. "We may get beat here and there but we have a real good chance to beat GA. Flashback to the beat down Mizzou put on the vols last year..... I don't understand it. TN is the KING of overestimation. Classically TN has a few good games against good teams then the inconsistency shows up and a not so good team puts big points up in them. Be reserved, be realistic.
@@bmphil3400 But every year is not like the same year. Teams get deeper, get better recruits, new top level QB's. Other teams like UGA, "oh three peat". No, Covid natty team only. Nothing before Covid, nothing after. lol See, change. We beat you like puppies for a decade straight. You also never beat TN from 1925 to 1972. That's a long time to own a team. So, basically 4 decades, lol. You being good for a couple os season during Covid, cause you had less opt outs and played in a down division, not that impressive. 78th ranked SOS's, Not impressive. Beat a skeleton scrimmage FSU team by a bunch, again, not impressive. Vandy could have hung 40 on FSU with all the opt outs. Beating TCU? Not impressive. ONly team in history to actually move up in the polls after being beaten lol. They didn't even win their own conference. UGA put up 78 rushing yards on Bama in the SECCG. Sad, TN doubled that against them. Even beat you in passing yards vs Bama. The reason you didn't get in even just the loss to Bama is they know your regular season SOS was a joke. The second best offense you played was AR lol . If you can go 11-1 this year, I'll be shcoked but other teams have caught up in depth. TN will have the better D like this year over UGA and a better offense. So year, before 2020 TN certainly didn't see you as anything other that what they have. UGA being good is a new thing to us when you look at the whole history.
@@bmphil3400 You didn't win squat before Covid and hadn't since lol. What would you think? 14 points down to SC at the half? lol One score winners over AU and GT? Trailed in 7 first half games last year. Where are you NFL QB's? lol Where is anyone outside of PIckins drafted top 3 rounds? What natty winner ever failed to offensively score a point in the same season the won a title? None, other than UGA in 21 against Clemson lol These stat anomalies are why people doubt UGA. You look more lucky than just flat out good. No team in history that ever won two titles feels so slighted by college football fans for winning two lol. It's the how, who and when you did it that doesn't look like all those other title winners. Fair or not, it is what it is. Than you throw in the drag racing issues and deaths, than it looks like you didn't earn it by having the mindset of not fixing it. Not addressing it. Looks like winning at whatever the cost..
@@gwhite7136 I'm not a GA fan. I'm just saying every year TN over expects and under performs. Supposed to have a world beater defense this year....but last year they had "locker room" problems then melted down to SC? 4-4 in the conference is not going to magically end in one season. GA is Tennessees new Florida......
@@bmphil3400 Every year, every team either over or under performs. But what makes TN different is the how. How many other teams in year two of a new HC, beat a team like Bama the way they did. With only 64 scholoship players under this coach, put more points on Bama than anyone in 114 years? Only one, TN. As Josh Pate said, we know why TN hadn't been good since 05. 5 bad coaching hires from an inept former admin and AD. In 23 they still had the best rushing offense in the country, even with the 7th ranked SEC QB. Still had a top 4 rushing defense. Still had the 2nd best season for TN since Fulmer. So your an idiot for not paying attention to stats. And we believe SC took data from Michigan. No one guesses right on almost every set. Beamer has been caught and fined before taking signal data. And how dumb would you have to be to believe a tea that one week earlier scored only 6 points against a horrible UF team, than averaged nearly 100 over the next two games, than back to 8. They were terrible before those two games and 2-7 the following 9 games. Tell me your not that stupid lol? Maybe Stallions will talk but he bought tickets and sent people to video the TN UK game and the Clemson game leading up to SC's game with TN and Clemson. Or maybe he's just a big TN and Clemson fan.. lol Please tell me you don't have daughters whose boyfriends think your have fool written on your forehead lol
Florida is gonna get dog walked, is what’s gonna happen. I know you can’t be for real with that out of pocket comment right now. It ain’t even gonna be close, my guy. Vols by fiddy!
It's not in the Swamp this year. You have a questionable O-line and we have one of the best D-lines in the country. I wouldn't be so cocky. Basically us having bad voodoo against the Gators is your only advantage.

I like JD very honest guy GBO
11-1. 10-2 Top 10 offence and top 10 -15 defense!!! 🍊🏈🧡🏆
That’s all we need to get it done GBO🍊
If that’s the case then we’re headed to the natty but I think 9-3 probably more likely.
The clips are limited, but Nico's throws are spot on. No underthrows, no overthrows, no making receivers stretch out to make catches... can't say the same about the QB this time a year ago. If he can execute that way in games, plus add his mobility, the offense will hum.
Yea that Austin peay game was BRUTAL
The TN defense is scary. They are gonna be far better than ok with that front seven and line depth.
GO BIG ORANGE
Thanks for the good content on the vols JD!
That D line is going to be able to bring pressure every play.
No more will there only be 1 - 2 players to stop.
Every one of these guys can punch a hole through an
offensive line.
At least 4-5 defensive linemen will have to be stopped every snap.
#FeelsLike1939 Go. Big. Orange!
The Orange and White are Everywhere! #GBO
National Champs coming SOON!!
11-1
Basically what JD is trying to say is Vols are winning a natty.
Thanks for the info great job GBO Savage Orange
Our defense is gonna be much better than anyone expects…. Cincinnati here but a born Tennessean… GBO
15 days can't wait

12 and 0 this regular season
Yessir....spoken into existence

Go Vols 🍊

We have never had a wide reciver room this deep
I’d argue we did in 2012 we had Pig Howard, Justin Hunter, Da’Rick Rogers, Cordarelle Patterson, Mychael Rivera, Jason Croom, Drae Bowles, DMoore… it was pretty stacked
@@GrannySingaporePVP I would say , bru McCoy , squirel white , mike Mathews . And either Thornton or Brazel will be in the nfl . I think only 2 of those guys played nfl football . Maybe 3 . We will see further down the line which one is better tho
@@VegasJackJack actually 5 played in the nfl (4 for more than a couple seasons, as Da’Rick only played 2 years for the colts)
Hunter, Rivera, Moore, and Patterson all played several years
@@GrannySingaporePVP I remember hunter and Patterson . I am 21 so I wasn’t as into the game as I am now or I would remeber the rest
🍊🍊🍊
GBO
Tennessee will rely on the defense and the run game, I'm not that high on Nico.
Watchu smokin boo?
I mean the guy scored 4TD's in his first ever start against one of the top defenses in the country

I’m a big UT fan. I just want to see us make the playoffs. Pretty tough schedule this year though.
NOT
Well maybe the won't get blown out like they did vs Georgia and Missouri. I thought he played in real game vs Iowa. Oh yeah it was Iowa.
Iowa was a top 5 defense in the country
