Star win, OM bad loss and UT bad loss...just the thought makes me harder than a general chemistry test.

Georgia State's offense looks incredible. Changing things up, using misdirection, and just plain out playing Tennessee's defense.

Their coach is doing a great job of mixing things up, but I don't know if it's them or Tennessee. Georgia State was 2-10 last year and aren't expected to be very good this year.

Didn't we have some fans who thought Jeremy Pruitt would've been a great hire? I think I remember some people getting excited over that possibility.

Fortunately, we have a pretty intelligent, albeit intense, AD who said, "nope, not this yokel."

Further evidence, that you cannot always bludgeon your opponent

into submission.

I'm not remotely sold on Pruitt as a head coach. (despite the talking heads out there)

(As I quietly set behind a keyboard)

On the surface, he seems like a potentially good hire given his resume.

But during an interview, I don’t see how anyone could converse with this guy and not think he’s dumb as a bag of hammers

Not just Rocky Top

Ole Miss was terrible and Arkansas looks bad too. Kentucky struggled. We were sloppy too. Florida was comical last week. South Carolina isn't setting the world on fire themselves. Been a lot of sloppy play across the league in game 1.

Tennessee looks lazy.

Week 1 football is usually rough. I feel it has been extra ugly this year.

If you’re in your thirties and don’t know what asparagus is, you probably aren’t leadership material. Blows my mind that guy is a head football coach. He’s Butch Jones 2.0, and it was obvious from the day they hired him.

Tennessee’s sole hiring criteria is which guy is most likely to be a Mike Judge character.

Our defensive performance today was bad, but UT’s is far worse. GA State was picked to finish last in the fun belt. Went 2-10 last year. Their offense has been bad too. GA State legitimately may have been the worst defense in FBS last year, and UT can get nothing going.

I just woke up from a nap and turned it on. This is gonna be worse than us losing to South Alabama.

At least we're not Tennessee. Or Ole Miss.

It's not all bad, boys and girls.

Correct. One of the worst teams in FBS came in and manhandled UT on their home field. Jermy Proot's seat just caught fire.

The mobile, shifty QB was way more than

They could handle, we struggled with it too.
