Tennessee Athletic's digital media team is tops in the country, IMO. That clip is sick!

[@chacaabbaylee768]

Nico is just fine in my book. At least for a freshman in the SEC. As long as he developes, everything is gonna be smooth sailing

[@thebigwagyu]

Yeah, everytime I see people criticizing him I have to stop myself and go “this is a freshman playing in the SEC with wins over Florida and Alabama in his first season”

Tennessee's production department is top notch.

[@midtownpowerwashers1368]

They have been killing it this year.

[@chacaabbaylee768]

Really have

[@massifchaos6603]

I would take Tennessee to cover a 21 point spread. Give me UT 🍊 31 - UK 6

[@lukepatterson13]

How u gonna copy the sc score😭

[@chipparmley]

Bring back the Beer Barrel

[@WiseAndLoco]

They should definitely bring the beer barrel back to the Tennessee athletic office. We Kentucky fans are completely aggravated with Poops

[@EricBJones]

I agree they need to get the Beer Barrell back involved in the Tennessee/Kentucky rivalry 💯 I understand why they quit using the Beer Barrell back in 1997 but what happened was a accident and now it's 2024 and every College 🏈 stadium in the Nation selling Beer every Saturday so why not incorporate the Beer Barrell back into the Tennessee/Kentucky 🏈 game it ain't any different than the Universities selling Beer @ the concession Stands and I think it would make the Tennessee, Kentucky game better 💯! GB🍊🏈

[@chipparmley]

It is still floating around there somewhere

JD loves the Big Orange 🍊

[@limmin0]

He knows the support, resources & passion with perigee of what they offer when UT is doing well. Just like with Texas.

[@ryanl.luttrell8042]

Nico will hit 300 yards

[@TennVols1084]

I said the same thing. You’re gunna see some fin bombs this game. Neyland, 7:30pm, it’s gunna be electric!!

Him being Milton isn't the worry. The worry is that he'll be Guarantano.

[@thebigwagyu]

I get having BVS, but come on, this is absurd

[@scotttuttle3513]

@@thebigwagyu How so? JG had all the physical talent in the world. The game just never slowed down for him. He couldn't find open guys. He couldn't anticipate. That's what we haven't seen from Nico so far. He's not seeing open guys and missing too many when he does see them. I didn't say he would be JG... just that if there's a concern then that is it more than he'll be like Milton.

[@matthewgooch6861]

Cant look past anyone. KU will try to slow the game down like they did against ole miss. They good at being slow.

[@taylorhayes1084]

I say 28-13 tennessee. Nicco has that feeling now.(proof we beat alabama) so i see a good game and our defense will hold them with turn over. I hope we beat them 35-10 but 28-13 seems more realistic

[@GETNaStY2010]

Think they will show the SEC and Georgia in the coming weeks. we are Natty Champs in the Nico ERA

[@dustingill4202]

We dont lose in Black!!!!! GB🎃! Defense may score 8-14 points alone lol

[@joshuawhite7515]

Im a vols fan...but the last time we thought we were going to run through someone and win easily we got beat (arkansas), and they aren't a good team either. Kentucky beat Ole Miss and we (Tennessee) and Ole Miss are almost the same teams. And kentucky beat Ole Miss. We have to be on our A-game 100%. If our offense can't get going, this will be a bad game.

[@jamiegunter7016]

At least your a honest tennessee fan

[@williamwatson975]

Our defense is way better than ole Missy. Our run game is better too

[@jameshanks5400]

Ky is not the same now they have 10 starters out for this game. Easy win for Tenn. stoops is poops and it’s time KY gets rid of the pork belly stoops

[@samletner]

vols is going to be losing a lot of players to transfer portal and NFL

[@samletner]

How do you all like about the twelve team playoffs Is it going to hurt college football

[@jerrywayne3467]

Had a week off before the hogs. Hopefully it has been time well spent. Go Vols

[@Tithulta1]

The week off didn't negate the on the road woes we've had, I'm hoping we shed that when we least expect it this year.

[@ScottyKey-z3i]

Nico is technically not a freshman anymore. He was a true freshman last year. Now we are past the halfway point of this year. I think he should be putting it together now, and if he does this team is set up to make a run at the natty. If he can't pull it together it kinda makes me worry. When do you start takeing a look at merclinger? I mean from WHat I've heard he can really spin the ball. I know he has little to no experience yet but I think if this coaching staff has done anything wrong. It's not playing young freshmen hints nico last year could have got some valuable playing time and just didn't. I hope he shows up and shows out this week it would make me and many others feel alot better. GBO 🍊

[@jonathanross149]

UK would really need UT to implode on offense again.

[@chacaabbaylee768]

And with Kentucky's offense, defense too.

[@firstcomesrock8593]

i hate the vols, but i wouldn't take mark poops at all

UT did the same “blackout” uniforms two seasons ago.

We always do it for Halloween. It’s a fan/player favorite! Along with some Spooky Rocky Top

[@MrChucklepuff]

And won by 40

[@deiradinn]

Been doing it for a while now. The baseball team wore it when the won it all.

[@Mountaineer865]

And?

[@dustingill4202]

Sure did cry more.

[@WiseAndLoco]

They don't get Brown the ball because he drops more passes than he catches. Key is the only legitimate receiver on the team. You must not watch Kentucky play. I agree Brown is the most dangerous man on the team with the ball in his hands but the ball is hard to get in his hands. Why not run some shorter routes instead of 10-15 yard routes we should be running 4-7 yard routes our line sucks. They can't hold blocks long enough for the receivers to run there routes. Play calling is also horrible. Bush Hamden is a bum. O line coach is terrible. Special teams are horrendous. This is the worst Kentucky team in 10 years. Tennessee by 27

[@JamesSmith-xn5zb]

Nico is ranked 78th in passing in the country 1st reciever is 160ranked and 2nd is ranked 260 we have serious passing issues. Nico if dont have it together by the end of the year I'm out with him. Another stat #1 5star qbs out of high-school have a 50/50 bust rate. But we have another 4 star qb in 25 class and another 5 star qb in 26 and next year 5 star ol and 2 4 star lol and 2 ir 3 good wrs coming in the next 2 year i got high exspections with the recruits coming in

[@thebigwagyu]

You’re out on a freshman quarterback with a win over Alabama and Florida in his first season? Get over yourself

[@jameshanks5400]

Ky has no offense and apparently currently no defense

[@timingram8953]

Let's settle it on the field, the SEC is NOT an easy conference.

[@shawnjones7332]

Nico needs to hit some long balls this offense will explode when he start completing some of these deep passes

[@EricBJones]

Whatsup JD Pickell Barrion Brown aint gonna get mich if a chance to do anything against Tennessee's Defense 💯 they are elite on the Dline Kentucky's Oline gonna struggle to stop Tennessee's Elite Dline thats part of the #1 Defense in the Nation And it just ain't Tennessee's Dline they have great LB's and also Tennessee has a good Secondary this season for the 1st time in 5-10 years so Yeah Kentucky will struggle to move the 🏈 on this Tennessee Defense im not sure Kentucky scores a point with Vandagriff or the other QB they have 💯!!! GB🍊 Vols

[@jameshanks5400]

Ky has already given up and coach stoops has checked out as well. KY is not a good football program and has decline in particular the last 3 years under Stoops. It’s time for a new coach

@nicholastaiariol2631 - you haven’t responded to any of my post the Alabama/Tennessee game l. Specifically concerning Neyland Stadium noise impacting the game and Jalen Milroe having a Heisman setting game?
