3. If at first the game - or the breaks - go against you, don't let up... put on more steam.

At one point I played HS football for Nick Hyder. (Look him up. He was one of the greatest of all times in Georgia) One of his favorite things on game day would be to gather the team around him and pray (devout Christian) and then yell "When the breaks go against you, what do you do?" and we would yell "Pour on more steam!" he then yelled, "When the breaks go for you, what do you do?" and of course we yelled "Pour on more steam!"

Sorry. I know this was totally uninteresting to most on here but your post brought back some very good memories of a man that is greatly missed. He had a tremendous impact on my life.

While your at it compare their 40’s at the opening.

Hyatt’s 100m was his freshman year.

Georgia hasn’t seen a WR with Hyatt’s speed this year.

I hope you're a troll because otherwise you're an idiot.

Do you want to guess which week they played UGA?
As for #2 receivers, you seem to forget that Auburn has anthony Schwartz and Arkansas has treylon burks.


As I said, everyone has receivers.
They just look a lot different after playing UGA (foreshadowing for Tennessee's offense?)

Yes...Georgia did a great job at shutting down the most productive receiver on each of their first two opponents. I was just saying that UT has more depth at receivers than their first two opponents.

I didn't "forget" about Schwartz and Burks. Neither of them have >15 catches for the season. Burks did light Georgia up, so that is a good point.

Lol. 2 games in with 1 of them against UGA.

You are a fruit.

He did take advantage of a bust (49 yard TD). If you want to pin your hopes and dreams on a bust, go for it.
Richard Lecounte made up for it with 2 INTs. He's kind of our troy polamalu (he breaks assignment as an instinctual player. It frustrates QBs and OCs because he breaks their "good looks" but it can also lead to him being out of position when wrong)

I’m hopeful, but not optimistic. I consider myself a realist. I just want to see us field a competitive team. I want to limit stupid mistakes and turnovers. At the end of the day, VOLS don’t have the depth, QB, or front 7 to beat UGA. I wouldn’t be surprised to see an upset, only because we get them between an emotional win over a “Top 10” team and Alabama week, but odds are slim. Fortunately, slim is better than the odds I felt we had the last few years.

Also - I would not be upset to see Mashed and Switch disappear from the board if we lose ... but I won’t, regardless of outcome.

The Vols are coming along just fine. You are right. You are light years ahead of where you were two or 3 years ago.

that's because you are a man of honor. Don't misunderstand me. I understand when fans disappear for a couple of days after their team loses. It hurts. I do my best to come on the board Sundays to congratulate the fans of the team that beat us, but it isn't easy.
