Warren Suspended for the Season
Â
Tennessee receiver Brandon Warren is suspended for the season, according to a family member. WVLT’s Mark Packer is reporting that Warren could return for a bowl game if he meets certain criteria. Warren has been in Kiffin’s doghouse all season and ESPN’s Erin Andrews reported Saturday that Warren was seen going off on wide receivers [...]
Travis Thinks it is Time to Bench Crompton
Tennessee’s receivers did not help quarterback Jonathan Crompton in the 26-22 loss to Auburn on Saturday and Fanhouse’s Clay Travis thinks it is time that Lane Kiffin benches Crompton. Crompton routinely missed receivers in the loss and Tennessee can’t do any worse if Nick Stephens is the new quarterback for Tennessee. The Vols need some sort [...]
Why Tennessee Will Lose Their Next Four Games
Hopefully Layla cushions the blow.
The Vols step into the meat of the SEC schedule with facing a 4 game gauntlet that few could survive. First on the slate is high-octane Auburn, then Georgia, Bama, and a South Carolina team that rolled the Vols last season. Lane Kiffin’s got a tough row to hoe, and [...]
College Football: Weekend Overreactions
This was a “wheat from the chaff” weekend. We’ve gotten rid of a good portion of the overrated bunch that clogging the top of the polls.
Only Alabama has consistently looked good. Maybe we’re being a little too hard on Florida. They were an uncharacteristic Tebow fumble and a crap celebration call from being up 30-6 [...]
Happy One Year Anniversary to 76-yard Field Goal Attempt
Today is the one year anniversary of Lane Kiffin’s brilliant decision to have Sebastian Janikowski attempt a 76-yard field goal last year for the Oakland Raiders. Janikowski has one of the strongest legs in NFL history, but this goes down as one of the dumbest calls in NFL history. Remember that Antonio Cromartie was on [...]

College Football: Weekend Overreactions
Crazy weekend. Unfortunately, most of the media is stuck on Meyer/ Kiffin instead of the actual football that played on the fields. Are we going to talk UT/ Florida until next September?
It was a great effort by the Vols that they can build on moving forward. So move forward ESPN and Fox. Here’s what else [...]
Janzen Jackson Does Certain Things Better Than Eric Berry
Unlike Phillip Fulmer, Tennessee coach Lane Kififn always says something entertaining whenever he speaks. At his press conference today, Kiffin said freshman safety Janzen Jackson does some things better than Eric Berry. Kiffin also said that he thinks Jackson will be an All-American player at some point in his career. This puts a lot of [...]
Kiffin Takes Shot at Meyer
After Tennessee’s practice today, a reporter asked Tennessee coach Lane Kiffin if he has flu concerns and Kiffin said, “I guess we will wait and see and after we are not excited about our performance, we will tell you that everbody was sick.” This is in response to Florida coach Urban Meyer saying Sunday that [...]
