Tennessee Gameday...

[Cuse On 3]

This defense stinks

Or it’s Tennessee having the best run offense for the past 4 seasons.

GFY, Lance Reddick.

Tenn jogged off so slow in the first SU almost got a delay of game

And the refs held the snap so we couldn't get the 12 men on the field call.

 

[Sdot]

Fran said E Rob would be out of here in 2-3 years, he’s right but I don’t think in the way he thought.

 

[CIL]

This scheme is mediocre at best…requires SEC level talent.

 

[Irt4su]

Didn’t Fran say he doesn’t fire in season? We are stuck w EROB all year. Hopefully he is what Fran believes he is

 

[hoopsupstate]

Still can’t tackle. Linebacker play is nowhere to be found. Has Bryant’s name been mentioned today?

 

[C Bomb]

Fricking blitz some. We don’t have SEC linemen

 

[samspann1]

Who missed that tackle on long run? Tank?

Yes, believe so

 

[CuseFan]

a fumble would be nice now

 

[crales44]

These guys seem allergic to tackling. Just awful and embarrassing. If I was E-Rob coming off of last year and this is my unit's effort in game one, I'm at least offering to resign. This is just brutally bad.

 

[AlaskaSU]

embarrassing, over 300 yds alteady

 

[Rufus_13th]

They dont wanna give us any time.

 

[Janner]

Same old stuff from the D, missing key tackles and not being aware on the field after they engage their first assignment

 

[SUforme]

Elijah Robinson better learn a better D system or recruit more 5 star kids.

His defensive system stinks for the talent level he’s bringing in.

I was told he was the best...

 

[NineOneSeven]

Game is way way way too slow.

 

[Libero2]

Our defense is largely non-competitive.

I believe it’s primarily on the DL for our complete lack of pressure and zero push against the run.

This is what happens when you play “the big boys” and it’s clear we aren’t ready yet / don’t have the talent to compete on the DL. We need a pass rush as bad as any team in the country

 

[OrangeXtreme]

14-31 / 0:21 2nd

 

[anomander]

This defense is bad. Can't tackle. How can you have no linebackers? Terrible tackling. Just can't let this happen after the offense scores before half and you're getting the ball back.

 

[PhatOrange]

Holy pathetic show of defense. Just wow. Sack up time. Robinson has to be on the clock. 1st half game 1. I said it. Just horrible. His scheme sucks.

 

[swish7]

Plz fumble

 

[AAM62]

This is insane. One step forward, 8 steps back.

 

[Fanalways]

Why are the commentators talking about Samuels and not a word about all the TN players?

 

[OttosDad]

Hiring ERob will be the biggest mistake of Fran’s career

In fairness to Erob, on a 2nd and 9 our senior captain DT is draped on their RB for a loss of 3 and can’t bring him down, resulting in a 50 yard run. like that is the difference in games. Embarrassing

 

[FrancoPizza]

So what growth have we seen schematically from ERob to tell us he should be retained?

 

[qdawgg]

D getting worn down. 2nd half could get even more ugly.

Same D we saw a lot last year.
