    • Nothing spectacular about the kick return..Just a bad kick and worse coverage..What's truly amazing to me is how do we have the worst secondary in the history of Vol football..At what point do any of these dim wits realize that you have to look back for the ball to break it up..Pinkel finally figured out that any pass longer than 20 yards was an automatic 1st down or TD..This secondary is pretty much responsible for most of these losses..And once again the DLine was totally gassed by the 4th quarter and once again Sal gives them NO help with any kind of blitz at all..Franklin literally looked like a statue in the pocket and was never touched from the 4th quarter on..My nephew could have completed those passes..Truly amazing!

    • Speaking of substitutions why is it that every time a back makes a nice gain or a first down, he's sent out of the game..I don't think any back has gone more than 3 plays in a row before he trots off the field..It's surely not fatigue..makes no sense what so ever
