Sensabaugh just backed off his Vanderbilt pledge, then tweeted out his offer from Tennessee. He visited Knoxville earlier this season for a game. Played at Knoxville Catholic last season. Would say the Vols set in a good spot here moving forward

Vols down seven spots to No. 21 after Missouri loss: https://tennessee.rivals.com/news/tennessee-falls-in-ap-top-25-after-missouri-loss

I took a look at what happened on the Vols' biggest three defensive breakdowns from Saturday:

This is the worst game tha Tennessee has played in 3 years. It hard to understand what happened. And why so many injuries. Is it equipment issues or training. .

Every year at least one game we have a complete let down. Remember the South Carolina game. Remember the Georgia game. This year Florida and now Missouri. You do not see Alabama and Georgia have a complete let down. They have a bad game, but still win.
OK coach how are you going to solve this problem?

How in the world can that happen?

What went wrong on offense?

Here is what Josh Heupel and Joe Milton had to say:

Georgia clinched the east. Vanderbilt is still bad. https://tennessee.rivals.com/news/what-we-learned-about-vols-sec-opponents-in-week-11

Noah and I are inside Faurot Field for Tennessee's (7-2 3-2 SEC) matchup with Missouri (7-2, 3-2)

A lot at stake in today's top-15 matchup.

Kick-off is set for 3:30 p.m. ET on CBS.

For updates and discussion, follow this thread and on Twitter @TennesseeRivals, @RyanTSylvia and @ByNoahTaylor.

There has been a trend developing in Tennessee’s SEC road losses the past two seasons.

In those SEC road losses, Tennessee has been unable to bring the intensity that they play with it at home. A big part of that is, they seem to give a little effort on the defensive side of the football.

Today’s lost Missouri and last year’s lost to South Carolina. We’re eerily similar and that the defensive players gave a little effort to tackle or cover the opposition.

I think a big part of that is that Tennessee has laid some turds with the defensive game plans put forth in those games. South Carolina and Missouri were able to focus in target particular players on the field, who were obviously how to position in unable to make the plays. Today, there was no effort to hit anybody today. Our linebackers were at a play on every other play from the line of scrimmage.

I think that Josh Heupel has done all that he can do with the current staff. He has a lot of talent that is on board in coming on board this next year. It is time that Josh Heupel looks into the mirror and deep into his soul and make some changes to the coaching staff. We are not going to get better defensively without better defensive game plans that put our players in position to make plays and not get their ass whipped all game long.

I think it’s more than a trend. It’s just the fact this is what’s happening to this program time and time again on the road..

No explanation. If the quarterback runs free and the one running back runs free, you might think that you would make a defensive adjustment. One of the worse of our defense linebackers. Did we make an adjustment in the second half: not that I can tell.
Just one of those days: our best running back fumbles; our best receiver drops the ball for a first down; we make a decent run or catch and we get called for holding.
We get Georgia next at home. You think we will be motivated?

How do you not come to play in a game this big… worst game plan we could have had

My takeaways from the brutal loss tonight:

Game story from Tennessee's loss at Missouri on Saturday: https://tennessee.rivals.com/news/v...-point-total-under-heupel-in-loss-to-missouri

Lot of pics for Missouri but data points to a VOLS win. Tennessee is a 2.5 point favorite in odds. Most betting is pointing to VOLS to cover. But it’s an away game. If Tennessee plays its good game and holds down on mistakes and holding calls, they should cover.

Anyone know of any TN watch parties? Bars? Anything?
Thx

What I took away from Tennessee's win over Wisconsin:

Tennessee goes on the road and beats Wisconsin by double digits. Here's how it happened: https://tennessee.rivals.com/news/vols-pass-early-season-test-in-road-win-at-wisconsin

The Vols are facing their first road test of the season with a trip to Madison to face Wisconsin at 9 p.m. ET.

The game airs only on PeacockTV.com. A subscription will be needed to watch. (Really dumb, I know)
