Pruitt said Bryce Thompson will be okay, hoping that's true and hes full go Saturday. Thought getting Abernathy back helped tremendously. Be interested to see if Flowers is contact this week. I think we win, but gonna need another great performance by the defense. I definitely think we can score enough. 28-17 Big O
Missouri has put up 29+ in eight of their ten games this season. Our defense is making strides, but progress comes in fits and starts, and they’re going to be a lot more like the South Carolina team that gave us fits than like the Kentucky team that made it look like we’d turned a corner. Their defense is definitely vulnerable, but we don’t have the kind of offense that I’d back in a shootout. I think this is a bucket of cold water that forces us to buckle down and fight for a bowl against Vandy. Mizzou 31 Vols 21
Also, it’d be super if Shy Tuttle and Darrell Taylor could spend the whole game in the backfield again.
I'm normally dead wrong 99% of the time about Vols football, and I hope I'm wrong about this, but I think Mizzou hurts us emotionally
6-7 minute drives and Keep Lock to 4-6 possessions each half, while taking shots downfield every 5-7 plays. Is what id do
They aren't unstoppable as their numbers make them seem. They're like we were with Dobbs and Hurd/Kamara/Kelly except in the passing game. The talent is doing the heavy lifting, but if they get out-schemed and frustrated, the offense just doesn't go.
Kentucky is the only team that isn’t the best team in the country who has held them in check. We have our work cut out for us
