The bad news is Tennessee isn’t very good. The good news is almost nobody is very good.
I gotta be honest, though, I don’t think I would have taken the deal from the football gods for the Vols to have an awesome defense if it meant our 5-star quarterback was potentially fraudulent and the offense couldn’t fight its way out of a wet paper bag. We’re supposed to be able to score as many points as we want and this team has looked like a Jeremy Pruitt team the last couple games offensively. This was still just Nico Iamaleava’s sixth career start and it was on the road at night in the SEC, but he went from a supposed Heisman favorite when Tennessee was playing teams who couldn’t get pressure on him to looking completely lost against actual football teams…
