PrintThere's a full day of football before ours rolls around at 7:45 tonight, beginning with Ole Miss at Auburn at 12:21 and continuing with the Cocktail Party at 3:30. Of course, the day really kicks off with ESPN College GameDay, which starts at 10:00 and shoots live from Eugene, Oregon where USC will travel to take on the Ducks at about the same time as our game. Expect little mention of South Carolina at Tennessee unless it also includes talk of officials, reprimands, and/or Lil Wayne.
So leave your comments on GameDay and/or the early games below.

Kirk Herbstreit goes against his past and becomes a Vols fan...
and I quote: “Tennessee is back! Let Kiffin recruit and get his team together. You better get your shots in now, because the SEC East is about to get a lot more interesting.”
(quotes are not verbatim)
Go Vols
Yeah that was great

Hey, Joel
Are we ever planning to vote on the Hail Mary Haiku?
by Incipient_Senescence on Oct 31, 2009 11:46 AM EDT reply actions
Unfortunately, no
I blew that this week. I enlisted Jackson the Mule to make it up to everyone. Game thread goes up at 6:45.

INSANE hit on the opening kickoff in Auburn-Ole Miss
that somehow Ole Miss got back after the fumble
Woo, that game's on now!
I was watching Iowa suck for a bit before coming back get behind early to Indiana.

not recovering that fumble after that hit
which they had every shot to get, and now Ole Miss takes all the air out of them – Auburn cannot play from behind

Why did Ole Miss have to remember they had McCluster before we played them?

How rare is it for a 3-4 UT to be FAVORED by 6 over 6-2 South Carolina?
What does that say about how little respect South Carolina has earned with its record and how much respect Tennessee has for its painfully close losses?
I've heard several of the talking heads
say “I like Tennessee to upset South Carolina”…wonder if we’ll hear that again tonight

It's a squirrely thing right now.
SC is higher-ranked and has the better record, for sure, but they also have been less impressive of late. Not saying that they’re not impressive, though; they also had a good game against Alabama.

4th and two feet
and Auburn goes to the pistol and predictably comes up short. I’m glad our fanbase isn’t as frustrated with the new coach as we were the last one like those guys.
Quick, ESPN Classic

Bizarro injury in Ole Miss - Auburn
A player down for each side. The Aubie on top of the Rebel. Neither being moved.
did you see it?
they’ve yet to show the replay and I wasn’t looking. The Ole Miss player couldn’t move just because the guy on top of him couldn’t, looks like.

The Rebel is ok. He just wasn’t moving with an injured guy on top of him, who is now on a stretcher.

Neck injury is possible too, but I'm guessing concussion first.
He gave the thumbs-up on the way out, though, so no paralysis.

This is why I'm afraid of a neck injury.

I'm sure this is what they said about Crompton in September
but man, Jevan Snead is not good. Don’t see how Ole Miss beats anyone of consequence
And he just held on to one for waaaay too long and took a sack for it.
Say what you will, having Crompton bail out on so many passes at least didn’t make things worse.
by David Hooper on Oct 31, 2009 1:19 PM EDT up reply actions
Speaking of that sack
It was 4th down. Why not throw into double coverage? What’s an interception going to hurt you?
by Incipient_Senescence on Oct 31, 2009 1:23 PM EDT up reply actions
They remembered they have McCluster, though.
They only need Decent Snead to win if they’re using McCluster appropriately.

If you can, flip over to the Clemson / Coastal Carolina game.
Clemson’s in all orange, CC is in all black. It’s not quite the same, but it’s kinda neat to see.
Thanks
I just missed a big play by Auburn.
Also, it’s not really the same when the orange is Clemson orange. It’s too dark to really even count. BTW, is there any chance we do that tonight? I haven’t heard any talk of it. Could the ADs be keeping it under wraps and surprising us tonight? Or is this vain hope?

So, on 1st and 20: A 3-yard pass to McCluster.
On 2nd and 17: a behind-the-LOS pass to McCluster. (incomplete)
On 3rd and 17: Snead has to scramble and makes the first.

Jevan Snead is a boolean XAND.
When no expectations and completely hosed in field position, results are true. In all other situations, results are false.

Because setting up statistical models based on on-the-fly reactions to individual evens is always a good idea.

I think we can just rename him "the Cincy quarterback"
See what Brian Kelly could’ve done for Crompton?

Watch this not matter.
Seriously, I’m hating Iowa so much right now.

Here's hoping that the ugly stick doesn't do roadies.
There’s one in Auburn and one in Iowa, and I fear seeing one in Knoxville.
Have fun.

Yeah
I thought Auburn would lay down and die. Have fun. GO VOLS!

So apparently you can win with no QB
Look at Iowa’s season so far. Makes you feel really bad about Auburn and UCLA.
by Incipient_Senescence on Oct 31, 2009 2:31 PM EDT reply actions
Wow. Strange replay officials
I thought that one would go in Iowa’s favor.
by Incipient_Senescence on Oct 31, 2009 2:33 PM EDT reply actions
So did I, but only based on prior calls.

Boooooo! Refs suck
Unnecessary roughness? He prevented a first down. And he led with the SHOULDER!

Thank god for Ricky Stanzi.

Wow. Turnover battle is 6-1
But points off turnovers is only 10-7
by Incipient_Senescence on Oct 31, 2009 2:45 PM EDT reply actions
And Iowa takes the lead 28-24
What the hell is going on in this game?
by Incipient_Senescence on Oct 31, 2009 2:55 PM EDT reply actions
I dunno, but the crazy just hit the Plains too.
It’s now 33-20 after an Ole Miss kickoff return and a Dexter McCluster 79-yard TD run …. but the XP was blocked and ran back for two.

Halloween jerseys?
The title on this GVX post says Vols to dress out for halloween. But I can’t find an article he’s linking to that says anything about our jerseys.
Indy throws an INT this time
I think this game may be over.
by Incipient_Senescence on Oct 31, 2009 3:01 PM EDT reply actions
Same here, unfortunately.

At this point, I think the 17.5 point spread is in danger for Indiana.

I don't even have the energy to be mad over this.

Lost points in my pick'em
Another big play beats the spread for Iowa by .5

Fumble by Auburn after a 20 yard loss on 3rd down
Ole Miss may have a shot after all.

Oh no, Gary Danielson's in the same stadium as Tim Tebow.
Doesn’t that violate the restraining order?

Yeah.
I’m already on campus, actually, but I’m going to wander around through the tailgates for a while.
by David Hooper on Oct 31, 2009 4:48 PM EDT up reply actions
Fair enough.
I think I’ll have to head back next year for a game; I meant to get down this year but it’s not going to happen, unfortunately.

Are all of our esteemed bloggers
At the game tonight? Hope we reward them with a big W.

With Sturgis’ leg.

We will next year. :-)
Boy, I hope the coaches stay on Palardy, though; I’m sure a lot of schools will try to poach him.

2 more official visitors:
Michael Dyer and C.J. Mosley are both from the same school in Arkansas. That makes 11 officials and 3 unofficials, if my count is right.
Big weekend.
This may be why we need a win more than just needing a win.

A'ight.
I’m out for good now. Have a great time!
Joel did set a second half thread, which should go active at 9:15. FYI.
Excellent.
