ATLANTA - Tennessee came out for pregame warmups Saturday wearing all orange for the SEC championship game against LSU.
The Vols added orange pants to their orange jerseys. It is Tennessee's first game in all orange since a 17-16 win over Memphis in Neyland Stadium on Sept. 25, 1999.

I remember him saying that, but its been 15 years ago! LOL
I was at the Memphis game in 99 and I thought we would never see the All Orange ever again.
I love the look! I cant wait to see how it looks on TV. Orange on Orange! Heck Yeah!

We had to have a last minute desperation bomb to a little used receiver at the three yard line to set up the winning score. I did not think we would see the all orange again under Fulmer. Would like to see orange at ll the away games.

We will beat you with our second, maybe third, string QB...at least Ga would have been a challenge. By the way, orange is the ugliest color I have ever seen. Geaux Tigers!

Cut's play calls suck this half, as does the QG'ing of Erik.
LSU gets the ball wnd half, let us hope the offense gets its head out of its butts.

LSUfan: You guys are solid and may win but uhh... have you seen the score lately?
That's a lot of mouth for not a lot of points.
raynochonspeed#212632 writes:
I honestly think we should run the G-Gun a lot more in the second half.
LSU seems to have trouble covering it (see the Arkansas game), and we need to eat up some clock. Our D is going to get tired fast at this rate.

Please do not throw in the direction of Austin Rogers the rest of the game.

Just like Nebraska and Kansas State all over again.Thank you LSU for stopping yourself.

I wouldn't say our D is great. I am pretty scared actually.
The offense is terrible and the D is barely holding with the exception of the 4th and 85 or whatever series.
UT has to make some adjustments and get some consistency on both sides of the ball. The O desperately needs to show itself that it can move the ball.

Maybe we can come out in the throwback jerseys after the half or maybe those infamous Halloween uni's. Hey it worked for the Dawgs aginst Auburn!LOL

Fulmer's " thing" was being "Against" orange pants with the white jerseys on road unis. Majors had done that most of the time, and Fulmer wanted all white on the road unis.

The all orange is awesome. I would love to see it more!
LSUfan....The Big Orange is leading at the half...guess GA would be smoking you guys by about 3 TDs now?

offense sucks

I think that Cut will start throwing on 1st downs. It is important to get Ainge in a rhythm early, passing more and setting up the run. It's up to us to make the correct changes at the half and let it all hang out!
Go Vols!

7 to 6, at the half...This game is nuts! Defense is playing lights out again, the only thing missing is the offense. Play calling doesn't seem "awful", sure would look alot better if there was some offensive execution out there.
ThaiVolFan writes:
I am proud about two things right now:
1. The Vol faithful have showed up big, as it seems to give us a big advantage with the crowd factor being greatly on our side
2. Mayo!! Need I say more!
Go Vols!

I bought the game on cstv.com but it is slow as christmas. I am only seeing about one in three plays. Got any ideas?
kesterja#235578 writes:
This is easily the worst defense we have ever had. Pathetic.
ThaiVolFan writes:
I think that it's going to be a tale of opposites. Points will be scored in the secong half. We are going to have to get some stops. I feel our offense willget things going!
ThaiVolFan writes:
make some safe throws to get Ainge's rhythm going, passes to tight ends, backs out of the outfield, then start opening it up with slants and deeper routes. Then Foster will be more effective out of the backfield.
kesterja#235578 writes:
I don't know. Our O is incredibly inconsistent. Hopefully, they'll get on track.
kesterja#235578 writes:
Wow...G. Jones looks much better at that running QB stuff than B. Schaeffer.
ThaiVolFan writes:
Get up in there Gerald Jones. We need to keep him in the game!
Go Vols!
kesterja#235578 writes:
Yes...Berry got burned at safety on that TD.
kesterja#235578 writes:
Wow...can't even get a chip-shot field goal. I feel this one slipping away.
nicksjuzunk#646117 writes:
Gut check time. We gotta hold them quick and get back down the field with the offense.
ThaiVolFan writes:
Leaving Points on the field, not a good sign.
However, we finally did move the football with some success. That should give our defense some hope to continue to play hard and get some stops.

Keep on pushing guys.

Did we forget to pack our offense for this game? Cutcliff's play calling sucks. I hate to admit it but LSU isn't exactly playing great football. We just aren't executing. Lets go vols!!
lilesrt writes:
Why can't we stop a freaking third down conversion?????
kesterja#235578 writes:
A turnover! Let's take advantage!
ThaiVolFan writes:
We needed that break, Eric Berry has been in the right spot for us all season long. Lets hope good fortune remains in the right spot for us as well. As I think that we will need his help again. We've needed him to get this far!
Go Vols!
kesterja#235578 writes:
Our offensive line cannot run block to save their lives. Why have we been unable to run for the last 5 years?

Our tight ends will be big for us if we will keep going to them. We can get some mismatches at that position.

Why the gimmick with Crompton? Wasted down.

I have tried that as well at the beginning of the season with the Cal game. It was slow as well. So I stopped trying as it was more frustrating that enjoyable. Just enjoy Bob on the net is all I can say. Keep the faith my brother.

TOUCHDOWN TENNESSEE!
AND I DON'T MEAN THE BIG DUMMY WITH THAT SCREEN NAME!
GO BIG ORANGE!

I can't see the game on t.v., but it seems like our D has made some really big hits! Our D has come to play!

Our Defense is playing BERRY terrific!
Go Vols!
nicksjuzunk#646117 writes:
Right on baby!!!!!!!!!!
Yeah!!!!
Ainge needs to get in that rhythm and hit those 8 yard passes all day long to let the d rest.
Now the D is starting to show.
GO VOLS!!!

Dang,
Lincoln's been right on all year but the last couple of games has been like a Freshman.
Get it out of your head Daniel. Get the next one.
ThaiVolFan writes:
Those 6 points left on the field are big. It would have been nice to have them and then get a another touch on top of that. It's the 4th, let's turn it up for 15 more minutes!
Go Big Orange!

We'd be up by 7 if we could make our FG's
