TUSCALOOSA, Ala. - Barring a surprise wardrobe change, Tennessee is officially wearing white.
UT coach Lane Kiffin could still pull off a switch to jerseys that would cost him 15-yard penalties at the beginning of each half, but it appears the only orange UT will wear will be pants.
The guys in those uniforms seem to be ready to go with about 30 minutes left until kickoff with No. 1 Alabama at Bryant-Denny Stadium though. Offensive guard Vladimir Richard and cornerback Art Evans both went through pregame warm-ups showing no visible signs of injury, but wide receiver Quintin Hancock hasn't participated yet. Richard isn't expected to start, but Evans practiced with the first-team defense.
Injured linebacker Nick Reveiz is on the sideline for the Vols, but he wasn't listed officially listed on the travel roster.

UT shocks the world today... or not.

Keep in mind gents that UT is playing the #2 team in the country...on the road. A win today would be a shocking upset, regardless of how much we want to make this an old time rivalry game.
The 'on the road' part is what makes this an extremely improbable win.
But....stranger things have happened.
If UT were to pull a shocker today, it would be one for the ages. Ala. definitely has much more to lose.

Have to remember Georgia is not very good this year on offense or especially defense. I don't expect to see the same Crompton I saw against GA.

Let Crompton throw one deep on 1st down.

Crompton looking like a 5 star.

...except when he goes backwards of course.

I'm really glad the ole ball coach called out bama on tapegate. Could be the difference in the game today.

sorry. i can't spell today. and crompton can't be consistent.
Volon writes:
Now that is the Crompton we know best.
nashvol34 writes:
Looks like the old crompton might be back. God, I hope not, let's see how he responds. Hopefully this didn't just kill his confidence. Wonder why CLK isn't letting him roll out?
djohnnyg writes:
Rogan CAN NOT tackle.
CRFVols writes:
Why not go back to what worked last week? Let's not show them the old Crompton. Let's continue to pound it as well. See if we can wear them down and mount a drive like we did against UF.
djohnnyg writes:
Crompton is the only QB in SEC who can SINGLEHANDEDLY blow a game for a team.
djohnnyg writes:
Here we go..Thanks Crapton.
DRAGtheWATERS writes:
Danielson is actually making some sense today.
imw8n4u writes:
come on D - we need a big play

Two times in Bama territory and NOTHING to show...cuz of Crapton.

Couldn't even get thru the first quarter without a pick...Crapton sucks.

Time to take the kickoff to the house!!!!

OK - no too much damage. Let's get it back together now on offense.

bama's been dominant in the 2nd quarter this season, time to strap 'em up tight, boys.

Seriously, if your last name was Smelley, wouldn't you change it?
Imagine the flack this guy must've taken in grade school.
He's a big dude though; a big 'Smelley' dude.

Down 3-0 end of 1st qtr and we are moving the ball I will take it. Our DBs are going to get a pick today hopefully for a TD.
djohnnyg writes:
Ok. 3rd straight time we're in Bama territory.
Gotta do something besides fumble or throw a pick Crapton.

When other players in the country screw up they now call it "pulling a Crompton".
By the way, I ate a lot of fiber past few days, and was able to take a heckuva 'Crompton' this morning.
DennisVols writes:
Now we need a TD
Keeping it Real
Go Vols!!!
djohnnyg writes:
Should have had a TD. A good QB gets it done in the red zone.
DennisVols writes:
Tie score I'll take that at this point. Shown we can move the ball. Need to get TD's off the 1st & goal situations though.
Keeping it Real
Go Vols!!!
DennisVols writes:
Defense doing their job holding Bama to FG's. Now lets get it in the endzone to take the lead.
Keeping it Real
Go Vols!!!
