Well, we’re due for our first test of the season. Rocky Top will be checkered, loud, and roaring for an opportunity to bring the eight game win streak to an end.
Win today – ugly or otherwise – and you’re in the drivers seat for the SEC and in good position for the CFP. Lose, and you gotta lot of work to do.
This could be the game that tells us all we need to know about the 2025 team. I can recall after the Alabama debacle last year that it looked like we’d be hard pressed to beat Texas, Ole Miss…hell anyone at that point. The team rallied and won the SEC.
My inner Munson is saying that we aren’t the same team we’ve seen in the past seven years, my faith in Kirby says we cover today and learn that this team is more than screen passes and three yard runs up the middle.
We shall see. The pundits are taking Tennessee and are down on Georgia.
Deja vu. I feel like we’ve been here before.
Have at it in the comments.
EDIT by Otis: I want to thank JP for stepping in for me today. We spent 15 hours at the ER yesterday with my son, got in at 0500 this morning. Thankfully, he has nothing seriously wrong but, the whole day and night was a fiasco. If you’re the praying type, please keep us in your prayers.
Oh! And, Go Dawgs, kick the Hillbillies ass!
Prayers up for your son Otis. 🙏
The important thing is that your son is OK…puts everything else in perspective.. God Bless.
(And GO DAWGS!)
Second. Hang in there Little Otis.
I’ll pray for your family. As for the game, I have no idea what our offense is capable of. Hopefully more than we’ve seen. Go Dawgs!
Prayers for you, your son and the rest of your family, Otis.
So sorry to hear that, Otis. Glad you’re all home. 🙏🏼
Hope all is well for your family Otis.
Hayes King is a gamer folks.
I know we dont root for tech, but an orange team lost and I think we can all come together and be grateful for that.
Praying for your son Otis.
Welp doesn’t look like we expected that…
Prayers for your family buddy.
gurkhadawg , I need to sign in I guess
Dammit Bobo!
DAMMIT BOBO!
Thats it!!!
Run with power with the qb and chuck it over the top.
Beautiful!
The d will be fine.
Damn it, Bobo!
He brought the 152ct crayola!
What happened there, smart guy?
You want us to lose so you can be right, dont you? D as on dumbass. You people are pathetic. Go Dawgs!
You are the jackass that started the shit talking. I came on to give him credit for the first drive. Since you’re obviously about 7 based on your commenting, let me tell you about the history of Bobo. He many times comes out with a great first drive and then goes dormant. Be prepared!!
Doesn’t matter anyway. We look way outmatched all over the field at this point. The D is embarrassing. I hope Bobo lights the world on fire. Signed, D as in dumbass!
Go freaking Bobo!! Im trying a different approach. Im going to be optimistic!! Let’s go, D!!!
Come on Schumann!!
Damn ellis!!
The is the SEC!!
Which means “not for long” if you’re drinking bourbon!!
Good thing the D isn’t spending a lot of time on the field. Save some energy!
That was an excellent throw…
I miss Nico.
The other teams qb must go down and he must go down hard!
-Al Davis
Let’s go defense.
Heupel is schooling Kirby and Schumann right now…
The only pass where we’ve had a DB within 5 yds was the PI TD flub. WTF?
Tennessee’s offensive design is very good..I hate to acknowledge it..and their QB is excellent..so far. The fast pace and quick-out throws are hard to defend.
I think we’re in some trouble here.
That was a ticky tack pi
Finally we get a stop…and a PI to undo it.
Dammit Bobo!
Dammit Bobo.
Friendly reminder this isn’t Kirby or Glenn’s fault. It’s the players. It isn’t bobos fault either. At least that’s what I’m told.
Who told ellis to get beat and fall down?!!’
Fire bobo!!
Yep. I saw Bobo yell to him before the PI too and told him too hook his arm around the receiver’s waist. Both of those were totally on Bobo. Just ask the experts here.
That td was ALL bobo!
Good grief..#1 is struggling.
I really really miss Boom.
I said they would go after whoever plays opposite Everette. That’s exactly what they are doing.
Looks like we came in with our normal UT gameplan and Heupel decided to do something different…
What he’s doing different is he has a competent QB. And as much as I like Gunner, I’m not convinced he’s competent.
A little pulpwood action there.
Well damn
Long game…
I think Gunner may give up on the pocket a little too quickly at times.
And Kirby scared the crap out of me going for it on fourth down before we cross the 50…but I guess he figures Tennessee is going to march down the field with it even if we punted..so I guess it makes sense..and it worked
Dawgs are young.
Touchdown Zach Branch!
Wait, Bobo called a screeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeen!!! Can we give those points back? Please!!!!!
Schumann sucks! 🤣
Dammit Bobo! Stupid WR screen!
Lol. When it works it is beautiful
I was told WR screens don’t work.
You deserve that one EE
I’m actually okay with Bobo’s calls so far. But Kirby’s D? WTF?
Vols have a good offense, that’s what.
Gotta give the defense a rest. A long sustained drive that ends in six is needed. Time to ground and pound.
These Tennessee boys is playin hard…
A screen for a first down. No! Noooooooooo!
That was worried me.
Lack of courage….
Thinking about contact and not the marker.
FUCK!!!!
If Greene doesn’t absolutely get manhandled, that’s an easy 1st down for Gunner on that run.
Is Bryan Evans the DB coach?
Eeeeeeeeeeeek! They showed Bobo on camera!
Mike Bobo is doing a terrible job of stopping our offense at present.
Wife and I are at the London Dawgs bar in London/Waterloo tonight. A lot of DGDs who live here and are visiting.
Late over there! What’s the name of the bar?
Passyunk Avenue – it’s a Philly style sports bar
🙂
I guess everyone’s hero forgot we suck giant balls in short down situations. 21-17 at half would be a hugewin after that start. A lot of time left.
Mike Bobo just made the Aguilar, the perfect quarterback , throw a pick to end the half. Isnt that great?
Getting a little trollish, Cooley. I can criticize Bobo and you can wear Bobo underwear and we can both be fans. Chill
Man none of this bothers me. You are way more invested in hating him than I am in liking him. I really don’t care about him beyond just pushing back against the knee jerk bullshit hot takes about him.
I hate the state of CFB currently but these NCAA political commercials make me want to hurl.
That guy wants to return college football to where the NCAA can sell television rights to all college’s games as it did prior to the Oklahoma and Georgia v. NCAA Supreme Court case in 1984 or 1985
“Let’s let Congress fix it!”
said no football fan ever.
Underrated comment!
It’s time to start putting the ball at the spot of the foul. Why not just tackle the receivers here??
Win or lose. Kirby has put on a master class of game/clock management today.
Yeah, don’t let me make the calls. I was actually wanting to get to half. I hope the 2nd quarter D comes back out in the 3rd, and Bobo, God bless him today, keeps it up!
Not sure we’ll hear people crying for Ellis Robinson for a while. Aguero is balling.
I told people McRay was a beast!
Dammit! I was in the yard and walked in when it said touchdown on the screen. Should i go back out?
That was a GREAT drive to open the half!
Looked kind of like UGA football!
Not one pass.
Manball for the lead!
LMAO. “Duplicate comment detected”
Gosh darn it, Bobo.
Mike Bobo failed to stop Georgia’s offense on that drive. I’m beginning to wonder whose side he’s on.
Wow! I thought you were a Dawg fan.
Greene may have seen his playing time disappear for good after the way he played and the way they looked with Uini in there.
Break their will. Very impressive start. Kirby sure looks comfortable right now.
Need a stop here.
Ground and pound. Let’s man ball for the rest of the game if we can and physically break them.
This dude is shook
Little Joey Aguilar done felt the pain. He’s not feeling near as spunky as he was.
He got hammered!
Not his momma’s App State
That tackle by Wilson may have knocked a few connections loose.
Otis, prayers up.
Thanks buddy, we’re good today, getting better every time the Dawgs score!
I’m Hogbody Dooley and I approve of that drive
Side note… missed the td. Went back and watched the whole drive and was able to catch up to live by the time UT started the drive. What the hell
Okay, Bobo. Hell of a game today! Don’t take the foot off the pedal. We need a TD now!!!
KJ Bolden, son!
First down after the pick … that was the time to take the shot.
This is a concern. Too many chances to shut this down. Bobo has had a good day, but he’s the king of stopping once we get the lead. Trying to run the clock out in the 3rd quarter up 3 is no way to ensure a win.
And there it is
Don’t let up DammitBobo. Put it to ’em…
And that is on everybody! Run out the clock, Kirby! Brilliant. This ain’t 2010s Alabama. Wtf!
Nice pushoff that they let go on that TD
Yep. Harris was in phase and likely to pick that off. At a minimum, it was going to get knocked down.
I wouldn’t let my receivers or D back wear gloves…the should have knocked it down but what the hell.
And in a game like this..esp. the way it started off..you should go for two after every TD…All you have to do is make every other one to break even and our running game is better than two out of three.
Now we will move the ball down the field? What’s the rush? I thought we were gonna hold them 4 more times and win by 6. Weird
Bobo. Straight up the middle on 1st and 2nd down two series in a row. Crazy.
I know. And here we go again. Why do we freaking wait until we’re behind?? It’s maddening
And he cannot get us home inside the 20. He is not calling a terrible game, but he also is not calling championship football IMO.
Can’t believe the refs didn’t see the offensive pass interference on that Tennessee “touchdown pass?” If that wasn’t then what the hell is?
It’s called home field advantage I guess.
Hunker ’em down now, Dawgs…
ONE
MORE
TIME!!
Who’s our best RB?
great downfield throw and catch!
We’re not a great inside the 5 team.
Haven’t been for several years now
We’re saving it for Alabama. 🤣
Another fg. Great. If I’m Aguilar, I throw it high and far. It’s a high percentage play against us
We have handed them a couple of easy long TDs.
The way this thing started, I’m pretty happy to be up at all in the 4th.
Well that didn’t age well.
Whatever the fuck that play is where they set up in the shotgun with the quick handoff draw (? somebody tell me what the fuck that is…Shotgun draw?) whoever calls that needs to get a code red. Gotdammit I can see that coming…
Getting cute when all we need to do is run down hill. It sucks and I hope we don’t see it again.
Well, you can hope in one hand…
Been a golf tournament but listening. Predicted we’d be here in the 4th. Grab the Pepto.
Seeing a lot of holds on our D line…
At least one by the facemask.
Three straight fgs will do this to you. That’s where Bobo is maddening. Too much has to go right to get this team in the end zone. Had a chance to pour it on and went limp. Oh well. Too many epic fails to expect to win on the road in the SEC
Yikes. Shumann snoozing on that last series. Not Georgia defense at all. Kirby may have to clean house like Saban used to do.
Damn, and I thought offense was going to be an issue. Evidently just throw long against us and nobody can cover a pass.
Bout time for Kirby to take his millions and retire like Saban did. The game’s passed him by. Running the ball, playing defense, and kicking FGs isn’t the game anymore.
He doesn’t get it. He brought us to the pinnacle, but had to adapt to get it done. Then he went straight back to his comfort zone and it’s been downhill ever since. Have to go get a great qb and a young upcoming staff. He’s playing David Greene with all the retread coaches. Let’s never forget the good times!! Lol
No I’m not advocating for getting rid of Kirby. That’s silly. He’s just going to have to adapt again to get back on top.
Overreact much? Gunner has done some good things but he’s missed some throws (last one on the endzone) that would have made the difference. I almost think we should put Pugs in when we get inside the ten..And I don’t want to be “that guy”.
2d and 14. Gut draw! They didn’t see that coming?
Nice call by Bobo on 2nd and 14 down 5 in the 4th. Looks like a revenge tour for our rivals this year. Not a very good team again at this point. Guess we just try and pick up the pieces and keep going.
I’m not going to repeat what my bride said after that play.
Oh c’mon. You can use @#$% symbols. We’ll figure it out…
https://youtu.be/uhSY6cMoTEs?si=6fNChpNPwJSpxEO_
😆
Win or lose, anyone who says we don’t have a MAJOR problem with the offensive line is a Disney Dawg high on LSD.
The tackle play has been lousy since the first 2nd half drive.
I don’t think anyone is going to say that when we are playing with our 2 on the right side. But questioning play calling when we are having difficulty blocking is dumb as dirt
Tennessee gwan to man ball the clock now.
My wife is officially done with Gunner. She says he’s not the guy.
Hard to be the guy when your tackles leave you hanging out to dry.
Now bobo is calling TN plays
Bobo’s offense settling for three twice screwed us.
Those two possessions put Tennessee back in the game.
Not a big Bobo fan however you sure missing the point of we have no QB whatsoever. He looks to run and thats about it he has had over a dozen RPOs called and not passed twice on them with Wrs standing wide open
That post didn’t age very well
GUNNER STOCKTON
Comp Att Pct Yds Y/A TD Int Sack YdsL QBRat
23 31 74.2 304 9.8 2 0 3 10 177.9
Clutch 4th down TD and 2 point conversion all while having an OL that was more porous on the right side than a screen door on a submarine.
Thirty eight points isnt enough to win? Your take away from today is the offense was the problem? 😆. Y’all are dedicated. I’ll say that for you. Defense gives up thirty eight and Bobo takes the blame. Just unreal.😆
Mike. Chill. We all like to get angry here. It is a game dude.
Will some please tell BOBO it’s not a penalty to throw the ball on 2nd down !!!
I trusted Carson Beck in this situation last year. Gunner…time to show us you’re the Man.
Need 8. Gonna take a miracle
It happened but too much time is left I think. Where is Bobo with a run off left tackle?
We wouldn’t be here if Kirby wouldn’t have decided to win by running. You can only do that one drive and the other defense catches on…dumb as a box of rocks…
We put them back in the game with our unimaginative play calling.
There is no doubt that Kirby told Bobo to run the clock out and here we are…
Dammit Searels!
Gunner may run, but he’s not particularly good at it. At least not at this level.
I have never said this. NEVER! But now is the time… FMB! Fire him.
Upon review of the play with 2:32 to go, I love Bobo. Make him the head coach. Fire Kirby.
He’s maddening for sure
Stetson, Bowers, and Monken. Time to make their statues! We got spoiled!
Oh someone also please tell bobo to throw the ball to at least the marker on 3rd and 8 ! NOT A WR SCREEN
we in it
I should get paid for my end of world commentary. It helps!
Miracle delivered. Now I’ll call for three and out, the a short drive for field goal.
Gunner has done his part
So if we’re able to throw it downfield when we’re desperate, why can’t we do it the rest of the time?
Been that way with Bobo for years! When we’re down, we can score. When we’re up, it’s a lot of 3 and out. 🤷♂️
Gunner just answered the call.
Admittedly the attempted back shoulder pass to Colbie was…not good…but the TD to Humphries was as good as it gets. He let that fly before Landon had made his cut to the corner. Pass to Branch had quick release and zip.
D HAS to bow up here
Hope your boy fully and quickly recovers Otis.
Gunner and Bobo brilliant! Who woulda thunk
Have we put any pressure on the QB at all today?
Field goal U. Just like the richt days.
Damn. D is not good. These folks are about to storm the field again aren’t they?
Complain all week about Bobo but it’s Schumann and the D that need to explain giving up all that yardage and points so cheaply. That’s not a championship defense of young pups.
Yep, if we’d have known that we would score 38 we all would have said we won…
The crow I’m grilling is gonna be tasty.
No one needs to explain a fucking thing to me. We won a tough game under difficult circumstances. That is what counts.
Was he kicking with a hobnail boot? 🤣🤣🤣🤣
we in it!
Sharpen those crayons!
If you watched our defense give up three easy touchdowns innthe way to Tenn scoring thirty eight as well as not stopping the run and your take away is Mike Bobo is the problem you are an idiot. I don’t care how anybody on this site feels about me saying that. That is stupid.
Dude…. But he did use a wrench as a hammer and the nail didn’t quite secure the coffin in regulation. Hes a DGD but he’s too darn conservative with a lead and on 2nd down. Lacks creativity too
What in the actual hell! Bobo don’t suck today. Schumann don’t suck today! I suck today!! And that okay. Go Dawgs!!!!
I love errbody! GO DAWGS! 9IAR!!
Beat me to it!!! 9IAR Bitches!!
Dammitbobo! FTMF!!!
How sweet it is!

HBTHMFD!
How Bout them DAWGS!!!
Hey Junior and Lulu…hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahah
Post of the day!
Never had a doubt, we had it all the way!
We want Alabama!!!
“I gave up..Admit it..so did you”
I’m D as in Dawg and I gave up!
Legendary ending.
Who out there loves them dawgs more than breath in their lungs?
HBTMFD?!?!
Woooooo!!
Them dawgs is hell dont they?!?!
Y’all have no idea how cathartic this win was for my family today.
GO DAWGS!
I’m glad, Otis! I love it. If y’all need anything please reach out. Im not far away. Go Dawgs!
HBTFD! FTMF!
If you get a chance, watch a game with the London Dawgs! DGDs!
Wow, instant classic. That 4th down dime to tie it will join the all time
Ga- Tenn highlight reel.
