I am sacrificing attendance today for the public good: working diligently on this year's edition of the Maple Street Press Tennessee annual. It will be the first spring game I've missed in something like ten years, so pick up the slack for me and yell "BRITCHES" a time or two. I do plan to catch it on the stream, though, so there's that.
Leave your pre-, in-, and post-game comments below.
Go Vols (and Vols)!

No tackling on QBs or kicking units
10 minute quarters.
Offenses are required to go hurry-up in last two minutes of each half. I LIKE this stipulation!

Cunningham kicks off to ~10
Oku returns to the 40.

First play:
Offside call on. . . the entire defensive line.

Bray to Rogers, no gain

Simms forced to throw it away on 3rd and 4
The D-line is owning the O-line. But the white team has both lines, thanks to Walker.

That deep receiver had finally gotten free
A bit late for Simms, though.
by Joel Hollingsworth on Apr 17, 2010 2:18 PM EDT reply actions
Pooch punt doesn't work that well
27 yards to the 16. And it’s Harrington, not Harris.

Bray goes long to Rogers
Gordon had tight D. Incomplete

Eric Gordon popped him hard but didn't wrap up

Who did the popping, do you think?
I think Poole gave as much of that as he got.

He's looking quite good
Nice cut.

End of one
Both D-lines are beating the O-lines, although the white D-line is doing better (which makes sense, as the white team has both starting lines).
Both QBs are starting well, and so are Oku and Poole.

great sports day.
caught 2 great premiere league streams already, now the orange and white game, and the NBA playoffs start in ~30 minutes. and it’s a nasty day outside to boot, so perfect timing.

A healthly Gerald Jones is a good thing for UT.
When healthy this guy has been consistent for 3 years.

it's going to be a loooooooooooong season for the o-line
but i guess we knew that already.

Yeah
When the 2nd string D-line is owning the 1st O-line like this. . .

Cunningham punts to the 12
He outkicked his coverage (which isn’t good, as it was only a 48 yard kick), we might’ve seen a big return if punts were live.

Mike Frompkee to Channing Fugate
Do we really have a QB with that name?

Still, never heard of him
Thanks though.
by Incipient_Senescence on Apr 17, 2010 2:37 PM EDT up reply actions
Frompkee throws an INT
That is dropped by multiple DBs. So I guess it isn’t an INT.
by Incipient_Senescence on Apr 17, 2010 2:36 PM EDT reply actions
the play was U-G-L-Y
awful throw, butter fingers all around in the secondary

Tyler Bray pressured hard, scrambles
Evades pressure for a long time, finds Poole. Poole breaks it for 30+

Wow, nice play all around
Bray, nothing, scrambles, finds Poole, who runs 32 yards.
by Joel Hollingsworth on Apr 17, 2010 2:38 PM EDT reply actions
Nice play from Bray
and Poole may be our best offensive player… probably a bad year if you don’t want to carry 75% of the load.
He does have the good O-line
But I agree

If Bray weighed 20 more pounds...
I doubt there would even be a QB competition
Bray, nice pass to Milton
Vereen nails him, knocks him oob

Bray with a fade to Moore
oob, but very, very close. Good coverage by Naz Oliver
by Incipient_Senescence on Apr 17, 2010 2:40 PM EDT reply actions
Another Bray comment...
Every media members who says Bray’s legs are too small, really doesn’t remember Peyton as a freshman. Almost identical lower body.
Yeah, you know
as much as I’ve heard about how skinny he is, he doesn’t look that underweight to me. he looks fine.
by Joel Hollingsworth on Apr 17, 2010 2:42 PM EDT up reply actions
Bray throws a slant
Either a little quick on the throw or slow on the cut. The route was there too
by Incipient_Senescence on Apr 17, 2010 2:40 PM EDT reply actions
Bray missed that one. Moore was open and a good play, but just missed him
by Joel Hollingsworth on Apr 17, 2010 2:41 PM EDT reply actions
Bray pressured, starts to scramble
But they award the sack anyways.

by Incipient_Senescence on Apr 17, 2010 2:43 PM EDT up reply actions
Funny thing about this spring games...
If this continues, Bray is going to be the most popular QB we have… and the fans are going to be upset if Simms gets the start and makes any mistakes. Even if Simms is the better QB 9 times out of 10.
I’m wondering if limiting practices to the media might not bite them.

Bray has plenty of time
Overthrows his receiver, but Rod Wilks called for PI. Not sure about the call, as I thought it was uncatchable.

Does anyone else think Bray has a low release?

Hadn't noticed
Let’s ask Tim Tebow.

It's not as low as Tebow's
But it does seem a little off

Bray dumps off to Poole down to the 12
That’s 14 yards on the play, I think.

Bray into the corner
Moore! Give him six!
by Incipient_Senescence on Apr 17, 2010 2:54 PM EDT reply actions
Umm...
Yeah, Bray looks really good when the offensive line is taken out of the game.
We may just want to run a 2 minute drill all season.
Bray appears to have betterpoisePoole, anyway

looks like all of these qbs can throw the heater
lacking on control though
The Dual Threat, Official Enforcer/Stat Geek of MCM.
That int looked like both players had both hands on the ball
Do ties go to offense, or the guy who clearly has control, like Myles did?
by Joel Hollingsworth on Apr 17, 2010 3:00 PM EDT reply actions
I thought ties went to the offense
But I guess they said it wasn’t a surprise.
by Incipient_Senescence on Apr 17, 2010 3:01 PM EDT up reply actions
The white obviously has a much better roster
Chris Walker is a smart guy. White is dominating on the lines. This makes Poole look even more impressive than he already is. I was impressed with Oku running behind a poor line though. Williams not so much.
The orange has one defensive player keeping them in the game though: Gerald Williams. Without him, they’d be toast.
by Incipient_Senescence on Apr 17, 2010 3:01 PM EDT reply actions
Give them both the benefit of the doubt...
on their last passes, trying to force things with less than 30 seconds.

future
I honestly think we’ll be ok this year. We had a bit of a makeshift o-line last season and did pretty good. At this point the players here now are the ones that want to be here. I think alot of playing above talent level will be happening this season.
"GIVE HIM SIX" - John Ward
I think...
we may have to scheme for the fact that our offensive line isn’t going to be allowing us a ton of time. It can be worked around, even thought it limits us. I expect us to run a lot of misdirection, slants, screens, etc. If we’re trying to run play action and off tackle runs I’ll begin to question the coaching decisions.
Playaction might could work if Poole impresses enough
by Incipient_Senescence on Apr 17, 2010 3:18 PM EDT up reply actions
He's going to have to be special...
I really think Poole’s runs may go something like this…
1, 2, -1, 35, 2, 1, 52, 70, 1, 0, 0, 80
So I open the can of mixed nuts
only to find it 1/4 full of nothing but peanuts. Rotten kids.

It will probably be the only way he stays alive this season - scrambling.
Yikes, does our offensive line [Fulmerized] or what?
Simms should've been sacked
But they let him throw anways, complete to Teague for the 1st. Walker wants the sack.
by Incipient_Senescence on Apr 17, 2010 3:29 PM EDT reply actions
That should have been a sack.
Do you really want the linemen thinking they have to hit the guy to make it count?
True
And wasn’t Walker on the right side last year? Or am I going to have to make an excuse for my memory again?

Yep
I hope he can step up and be a playmaker this year. Whichever QB gets the nod the receivers are goin to have to step up big time and help them out.

manning and white were great
but they were great at a single function. berry is the defensive equivalent of peyton with michael vick speed. his game has no holes. he can cover, he can hit, he can catch, he can call defensive signals, he’s dangerous with the ball in hand… we will likely never see another qb like peyton, but i know we will never see another football player like berry.

Nice job by Moore!
Breaks the tackle, gets .. what, 17? Yep.

That was a dangerous throw too

Nice drop, there.
Wolfe, I think they said, was coming in on ’em.

Nice defense there by Moore.
Nice arm strength, at the least.

Bray throws deep
Dangerous throw, Moore knocks it away from Prentiss Wagner
by Incipient_Senescence on Apr 17, 2010 3:55 PM EDT reply actions
Bray either threw that away or someone ran the wrong route
by Incipient_Senescence on Apr 17, 2010 3:56 PM EDT reply actions
Short pass to Tauren Poole
Who breaks lots of tackles for lots of yards.
by Incipient_Senescence on Apr 17, 2010 3:57 PM EDT reply actions
Poole wouldn't gain that much
In a real game. Defensive players didn’t want to pop him really hard.
Makes Teh Monies Throwing Down In The Blogosphere.
Poole has a bunch of broken tackles
looking like Mo’ out there
Bray to MIlton
Milton needs to come to that, he made it closer than it should’ve been. 2nd and 4

Draw
No space for Poole. One yard.

Nice hands by Wagner.
Picked it off, but was OOB.
Does that count as a Dooley-Version of OOBTO!!! ?

I love how surprised the announcers are when we make a FG
13-7, 3:25 to play.

Anyone seen Josh Selby hanging around? Please, please, please

Simms scrambles
They call it a sack, Walls.

Touchdown Anthony Anderson!
Poor pass, Matt.
by Incipient_Senescence on Apr 17, 2010 4:03 PM EDT reply actions
I think that was a taunting penalty
he dropped the ball out of carrying position before he entered the end zone. Bring it back.

No TD anymore
They’re calling him out at the 22
by Incipient_Senescence on Apr 17, 2010 4:04 PM EDT reply actions
That was the right pass by Bray
But was a bit high.

Was Brian Williams in there? ;-)

Yeah...
Normally I’d be against it, but we need a cupcake with our schedule.

It was a last minute replacement, and they're in-state
So not as bad as it could be. We’re helping out the UT system.

Last lower division team we played...
Was The Citadel in 1983.
Won 45-6 during a 9-3 season.
Good coverage by Fleming, incomplete in the end zone
by Incipient_Senescence on Apr 17, 2010 4:07 PM EDT reply actions
Excellent coverage.
It was man-coverage, so the throw was an okay one — he also put it over the defender, so it was going to be caught by White or not at all.

I don't know
They haven’t tried a FG.

Still in school in Florida.
STA doesn’t allow early graduation. See “Communists” above.

Big hit by Askew

Simms evades pressure, throws deep on 4th
Incomplete. TO on downs.

Bray
14/37 doesn’t look that great, but I like the 1 TD and 0 Ints in the stat line.
So Sayth King Zach I
Yeah
I think he played better than his stats indicated. He had a few drops. And his misses were mostly overthrows. He only had a couple bad decisions.
by Incipient_Senescence on Apr 17, 2010 4:14 PM EDT up reply actions
I would take 35+ attempts with no picks from any QB, especially a freshman

Does anyone know if Chaney is calling plays for both teams?
I would assume so.

I don't think so
But I’m not sure

We need to practice the Victory formation
Since we’ll be using it so much next season ;-)

Standouts, by my eyes/memory:
Poole
Williams
Walls
The entire secondary* played well too. I didn’t see any coverage mistakes, and the WRs had trouble getting separation. Also, 4 picks.
*Except for Rod Wilks, who was pretty terrible.
by Incipient_Senescence on Apr 17, 2010 4:18 PM EDT reply actions
They name Bray player of the game
I still would’ve selected one of the three above.

QBs get all the credit
Always have, always will.

Final Grades
Bray- B+
Simms-C
I thought it was a well played game
Poole, 13 carries for 59
Oku 8 for 36. That’s 4.0+ YPC for both.

Defense may keep us in a few games next year but, I fear,
this is going to be a painful year to be a Vol.
