Tennessee Volunteers vs. Oklahoma Sooners | Full Game Highlights | ESPN College Football

[@battles.digital]

Tennessee’s defense was STOUT for the majority. That accounted for a lot of conservative football on offense, I believe. Regardless, a double digit win - on the road - against a top 15 team… I’ll take it any day of the week!

[@marcusking332]

[@garyspence2128]

How in the world did OU think that Jackson Arnold was a starter, especially going into the SEC. He's thoroughly mediocre. The 2nd string dude was much better, and far more poised under pressure. Threw better as well. Only had a quarter and change to do something. Time to alter that game plan, before they give away too many games!

[@K-xb2qz]

Texas fan here. I watched the game from start to finish. One thing i was wrong about was Oklahoma defense. Its legit. I felt kind of bad for the defense. You can only do so much. They had take aways, tackle for losses, sacks, everything it takes to win a football game but Tennessee was resilient. They controlled the game. They made bigger plays on offense than Oklahoma. Oklahoma didn't really score until the other quarterback came in. He's pretty good. Got some wheels on him. Even though Tennessee was winning big, it felt a lot closer. I mean so many missed opportunities for the Sooners. But nonetheless i had Tennessee winning by at least 2 touchdowns. They're just the better team. I watched the Sooners play on opening day and they looked mediocre to me. Of course you cant really judge a team to much in the first week. Teams should get stronger as the season goes. Oklahoma defense is really good and they gon win some games. I will say this. If you a Georgia or Bama fan. Watch out. Tennessee is coming. HOOKEM 🤘!!

[@JohnMegaton2062]

UT's offense played like hot garbage too, and didn't have the o line healthy 2/3 of the game unfortunately. OU took advantage there for sure. Nico has to work on his pocket awareness and holding the ball too long at times. Still, OU is as good as any SEC defense for sure. If they get you in a low scoring slugfest watch out.

I mean Huepel actually always plays conservatively when we are winning. He just relies heavily on the run game to eat the clock. If you check the stats for our first 3 games, we had a ton of rushing yards. So, we still continued to put up points in those games and increase the lead. This year, we actively have a defense that is worth trusting. This is smart football. If we are winning significantly, no reason to throw the ball. The difference tonight was that OU was at least good enough at stopping the run that they didn't allow us to put up 50 points. But it was still a dominant win in the sense that we had complete control of the game from the 2nd quarter until the end. The AP ranking will reflect this tomorrow and I guarantee you we move into the top 4. Maybe 5, but I think 4

TN won on defense tonight with the D line and solid secondary play through 4 quarters. This video doesn't linger on it but when Iamaleava lost the ball twice, the D came back with two huge turnovers on the next plays. I wasn't impressed with calling 3 runs after McCoy's long reception and settling for a field goal--that wastes chances that bama and georgia will punish. Overall good game, OU is still in the running after this performance

Let's be real here. Hawkins kid played ok, but he came in down 3 scores late in 3rd qtr, so of course he's gonna be playing against alot softer defense than the starter. He may be better than Arnold, but let's not act like they would've won if he played the whole game. Vols outplayed them in every way, with 4x more penalties, & played the 4th just protecting the lead. As a lifelong Vols fan, Im glad to see Huepel slow down & play smart, & protect his players for a LONG season. We playing Rocky Top tonight!! Go Vols!!

It's the 6th ranked team in the country in their first real test this year (NC State doesn't count). Oklahoma has a good defense and had home field advantage. This was the best match-up in terms of interest. Now we know that Tennessee's offense is legit against a solid defense, and Oklahoma needs to reexamine their QB room. Either that or Tennessee's defense is stronger than their offense, it's hard to say with Jackson Arnold as a starter and the Vols offense playing conservative for most of the second half.
