the titans are lucky they are in the AFC south and have one of the easiest schedules in the NFL. they just aren't very good. NFL has been a snooze fest in general this year.

Tennessee hasn't scored an offensive touchdown in over a month. If Kentucky loses, they got in their own heads.

Isn't this supposed to be Botch's last game? The Grude is coming according to the rumor mill.

There is a story today on Yahoo about Butch Jones and why he should be fired. It is from the Rocky Top Talk. The 11 comments mostly bemoan the loss to Kentucky, i.e. "Kentucky has no coach and the players simply run on the field and depend solely on talent and, unfortunately for them, the talent is lacking. For Tennessee to lose to that team is completely unbelievable."

Do you mean UK or UT’s talent?
How can the Vols Talent be lacking? Since Lyle’s arrival the Vols have had multiple top 5 recruiting classes. I know because UT fans have been rubbing the classes in for a few years now.

Kentucky tried their best to give it to the Vols. That last play.... geez.

For only the second time since I left college I get to see a UK win over UT.
I have seen Vanderbilt beat em 4 times in the last decade. Trust me it’s sweet every time!!!

I don't even know why people are so gung ho about Gruden. Has never coached college and hasn't coached anywhere in a decade.

Rumor mill really picking up now. Botch is gone and The Grude is on.


Gruden makes over $6 million/year and only has to work like 3-4 weeks.

He's never coached in college and has said numerous times that he would have the school on probation within weeks.

He ain't coming to UT, Florida or anywhere for that matter. The only way gets back into coaching is in the NFL.

Gruden could probably get any open NFL job at the end of the year. Why would he want to go coach a college team where he not only has to coach but travel around the country recruiting as well?

It hasn't been football season in Knoxville since the Florida loss. It's Gruden season baby! I'm pretty tired of rooting for my team to lose, I wish they would just fire Butch already.

He and his wife own land in East Tennessee and she was a cheerleader at UT. Happy wife, happy life.

Is she going to be happy when he's out on the recruiting trail and spending 18-20 hour days in the office? There's a reason he hasn't taken a job coaching. He makes a butt load of money to broadcast one game a week.
