Tennessee Source Drops TRUTH BOMB Before Auburn Tigers vs Volunteers Game! | Vols Football · SEC Football Addiction

• 0:00
  Speaker 1: Welcome back to SEC football addiction sports talk. Jay on
• 0:04
  Speaker 1: with us, Tennessee and Auburn this week. We are presented
• 0:07
  Speaker 1: by prize picks. We're all new users who play a
• 0:09
  Speaker 1: $ 5 lineup and win get 150 in lineups. If they
• 0:12
  Speaker 1: use code HMA, Jay, I, before we talk about Auburn,
• 0:16
  Speaker 1: I talked about this a little bit on your show,
• 0:17
  Speaker 1: but Tennessee's defense came to play on Saturday and the
• 0:21
  Speaker 1: special teams did too. It was the offense that really struggled,
• 0:23
  Speaker 1: but through four games, one of them being against the
• 0:27
  Speaker 1: number one team in the country, You've got to feel
• 0:30
  Speaker 1: better about this defense than you did last year because
• 0:31
  Speaker 1: I knew you couldn't have felt much worse about it then.
• 0:35
  Speaker 2: Jim Knowles was obviously a really good hire. Coach Owings
• 0:39
  Speaker 2: obviously helped the team as well. It's a tougher team.
• 0:42
  Speaker 2: That was one thing. I was like, they're going to
• 0:45
  Speaker 2: pack this in in the second half. I felt that
• 0:48
  Speaker 2: because Texas was kind of leaning on us so big
• 0:51
  Speaker 2: time on defense. Our inability to move the ball, it
• 0:54
  Speaker 2: was only a matter of time before the defense got tired.
• 0:56
  Speaker 3: But they didn't quit.
• 0:58
  Speaker 2: Now, part of that was probably having 100,000 people with
• 1:01
  Speaker 2: the wind at their back. But the other part was
• 1:03
  Speaker 2: a really well-coached defense that they put so many weird
• 1:08
  Speaker 2: things on Arch Manning. He didn't know what was coming
• 1:11
  Speaker 2: and going.
• 1:12
  Speaker 3: He did not.
• 1:13
  Speaker 2: We were blitzing from all different angles. And that team,
• 1:17
  Speaker 2: we squared up against their offensive line in a major way.
• 1:21
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, it's what kept them in it, right?
• 1:23
  Speaker 4: The punt return was big, obviously. You guys got it
• 1:26
  Speaker 4: from special.
• 1:26
  Speaker 3: Teams, too.
• 1:27
  Speaker 4: If the defense... I thought the defense played a.
• 1:31
  Speaker 3: I don't know.
• 1:31
  Speaker 4: I know that last drive. Well, not the last drive,
• 1:33
  Speaker 4: but the drive that they had that.
• 1:35
  Speaker 1: Put them up 10, it just felt like the defense
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: was worn down there. But even after that, with five
• 1:40
  Speaker 1: minutes to go, they went out and got another stop,
• 1:42
  Speaker 1: or three minutes to go. They went out and got
• 1:44
  Speaker 1: another stop, where they could have very easily just packed
• 1:47
  Speaker 1: it in. I'll tell you, if the defense... would have played, like,
• 1:50
  Speaker 1: I thought they played an A type of game defensively.
• 1:54
  Speaker 1: And if they would have played like a C game
• 1:57
  Speaker 1: or a B game, Texas would have scored 30 points.
• 2:00
  Speaker 4: And so, yeah, I was very impressed with that.
• 2:03
  Speaker 1: And I think that'll help them throughout the rest of
• 2:04
  Speaker 1: this year as the offense tries to figure things out
• 2:07
  Speaker 1: with the freshman quarterback.
• 2:09
  Speaker 2: Yeah, that's, like I say, the big thing about this.
• 2:13
  Speaker 3: And we talked about this earlier.
• 2:14
  Speaker 2: It's just When you go in with a true freshman,
• 2:17
  Speaker 2: I don't care if it's Peyton Manning, it could be
• 2:21
  Speaker 2: the greatest quarterback that Tennessee's ever known or FSU or
• 2:24
  Speaker 2: anybody else.
• 2:25
  Speaker 3: It's a big risk.
• 2:27
  Speaker 2: I don't care how talented the person is. It normally
• 2:29
  Speaker 2: takes two to three years of college play.
• 2:33
  Speaker 3: To get used to it.
• 2:34
  Speaker 2: That's what I've heard every expert discuss. And it's so
• 2:38
  Speaker 2: rare for the– who was the guy that played for
• 2:40
  Speaker 2: Clemson that came out that first year and they won
• 2:42
  Speaker 2: the national title?
• 2:44
  Speaker 3: Oh, Lawrence– Yeah, yeah, Lawrence.
• 2:47
  Speaker 2: He's the only one that I've ever seen come out
• 2:49
  Speaker 2: and really just like fished the water and just knew
• 2:53
  Speaker 2: exactly what to do.
• 2:54
  Speaker 3: That was so rare.
• 2:55
  Speaker 2: Typically, that does not happen, but here's the thing. This
• 2:59
  Speaker 2: offense should help him, and he's not going to face
• 3:01
  Speaker 2: that first round draft pick at every position. I watched
• 3:05
  Speaker 2: the film guy after the Tennessee, and he broke it down,
• 3:10
  Speaker 2: and it it almost made me sick watching it.
• 3:12
  Speaker 3: It was like, what can he do?
• 3:13
  Speaker 2: What can anybody do? Because we couldn't move their tackles.
• 3:18
  Speaker 2: We double teamed the guy a couple of times and
• 3:21
  Speaker 2: he didn't move. He just leaned into us and then
• 3:24
  Speaker 2: pushed him away and made the tackle. And I'm going,
• 3:27
  Speaker 2: a double team you couldn't push him? And they had
• 3:30
  Speaker 2: four dudes like that up there. And the film guy
• 3:34
  Speaker 2: kept going, that's first round pick. That's first round pick.
• 3:37
  Speaker 2: That's probably second round pick. And I'm going, That's $ 47. 5
• 3:40
  Speaker 2: million is what that is. Let's just know what that is.
• 3:45
  Speaker 2: That is stacking up cordwood of talent at $ 1 and
• 3:49
  Speaker 2: $ 2 million apiece.
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: Tennessee fans, do me a favor just really quickly. Make
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: sure you are subscribed to our audio podcast. I'm going
• 3:57
  Speaker 1: to link it in the description. You can listen on
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: Apple Podcasts, Spotify, wherever. Spreaker is the best one if
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: you can download that app, but I'm not going to
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: ask you to download an extra app. Just wherever you
• 4:06
  Speaker 1: are subscribed, to audio podcasts, make sure you add sec
• 4:10
  Speaker 1: football addiction to that list.
• 4:11
  Speaker 4: All right, back to Jay.
• 4:13
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 4:13
  Speaker 1: And you look at, you know, there's certainly like traps
• 4:16
  Speaker 1: on Tennessee schedule and we'll talk about Auburn here in
• 4:18
  Speaker 1: a second, but like they've got an opera, they're not
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: going to face a defensive line like they just saw.
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: And there's not another one in the country to be
• 4:24
  Speaker 1: fair with you.
• 4:24
  Speaker 4: Georgia's got a good one. You don't play them, but
• 4:27
  Speaker 4: the Auburn doesn't have that.
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: Arkansas didn't have that. Alabama's good, but they don't have that.
• 4:31
  Speaker 1: South Carolina certainly doesn't. Kentucky doesn't. A & M doesn't.
• 4:34
  Speaker 4: LSU's got a good defensive line. Vandy doesn't. So like,
• 4:38
  Speaker 4: I do think it sets up well. Now, you're going
• 4:40
  Speaker 4: to have to do other things well.
• 4:41
  Speaker 1: I'm not just listing off all those as wins or
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: short things, but in this Auburn matchup, how much does
• 4:47
  Speaker 1: Byron Brown scare you? I kind of gave you my
• 4:49
  Speaker 1: take on him over on your channel, so if you
• 4:51
  Speaker 1: guys haven't watched Sports Talk Jay's video, go over to
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: his channel and do that too, but just thoughts around
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: him and that offense.
• 4:57
  Speaker 2: I think he's a guy who can hurt you, and
• 4:59
  Speaker 2: he's a guy that can hurt himself and hurt his team.
• 5:02
  Speaker 2: He's very much a double-edged sword, and he's going to
• 5:06
  Speaker 2: do some Fantastic things where you go, man, that guy
• 5:08
  Speaker 2: looks like an all-pro, and then he's going to make
• 5:10
  Speaker 2: some boneheaded moves that create turnovers. You go, what in
• 5:15
  Speaker 2: the world was that guy thinking? He reminds me a
• 5:16
  Speaker 2: lot of your quarterback in Ashton Daniels, a guy that's
• 5:20
  Speaker 2: got a lot of talent and doesn't seem to put
• 5:23
  Speaker 2: it all together half the time.
• 5:24
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 5:25
  Speaker 4: People ask me about that.
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: Ashton, you know, if I had told you that Ashton
• 5:29
  Speaker 1: Daniels was going to go into Bryant-Denny Stadium and throw
• 5:31
  Speaker 1: for 377 yards, you'd say, whoa.
• 5:34
  Speaker 4: That that's pretty good.
• 5:35
  Speaker 1: But if I'd also told you they had three picks,
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: he just said, Oh, that sounds, sounds more like, so
• 5:39
  Speaker 1: like you got, sometimes you gotta take the good with
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: the bad. He is dynamic with his legs too. And
• 5:44
  Speaker 1: he's a big kid that can, you know, run people
• 5:46
  Speaker 1: over at times. Now I'd like to see him in
• 5:48
  Speaker 1: the hole with Aaron Carter and see what ends up
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: happening there. But, uh, welcome to the, uh, welcome to
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: the sec if so. But, um, do you think against
• 5:57
  Speaker 1: a defense that's not quite as good or not, not
• 6:01
  Speaker 1: quite as good, not even close to as good, uh,
• 6:04
  Speaker 1: as Texas's was, you know, this Auburn team gave up.
• 6:08
  Speaker 1: What did they give up to Florida? 44 points. You
• 6:11
  Speaker 1: think the offense can find a little more success in
• 6:13
  Speaker 1: this game?
• 6:15
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I think we'll be able to run the ball,
• 6:16
  Speaker 2: which is very important. If we don't run the ball,
• 6:19
  Speaker 2: we don't play well. That's every single time in a
• 6:23
  Speaker 2: hypo offense. You've got to be able to at least
• 6:25
  Speaker 2: get 150 yards on the ground. And if you're at 50, 60, 70, no,
• 6:30
  Speaker 2: you're probably going to lose that game. And that's very important.
• 6:34
  Speaker 2: And I think we'll be able to run the ball
• 6:35
  Speaker 2: some against Auburn. I think we'll get a decent amount.
• 6:37
  Speaker 2: It's not going to be like we did against Georgia
• 6:40
  Speaker 2: Tech where we just ran over them.
• 6:42
  Speaker 3: That won't happen. But I think we'll get 150.
• 6:44
  Speaker 2: And that'll give enough time for our quarterback to have
• 6:49
  Speaker 2: at least three seconds. And that extra second and not
• 6:52
  Speaker 2: swiveling your head around because you know somebody's getting ready
• 6:55
  Speaker 2: to take your head off, that'll help a lot. And
• 6:57
  Speaker 2: I'm not saying Auburn's defensive line is a piece of
• 7:00
  Speaker 2: cake or anything because they're absolutely not But it's not
• 7:03
  Speaker 2: going to be a fire rate every single time either.
• 7:07
  Speaker 4: Thankful that it's not the Texas defensive lineup there.
• 7:10
  Speaker 1: Yeah, Florida had just under, if not for kneel downs
• 7:13
  Speaker 1: and a reverse that didn't go anywhere, Florida had 250
• 7:16
  Speaker 1: yards of rushing against them. Jaden Ball went for 163,
• 7:20
  Speaker 1: which he is absolutely spectacular, and he's a different kind
• 7:23
  Speaker 1: of animal when it comes to being able to run
• 7:26
  Speaker 1: the ball. But they were very, I don't know what
• 7:30
  Speaker 1: to word you, complimentary. They had 250 yards passing. They
• 7:34
  Speaker 1: had 250 yards rushing as a team. They were very
• 7:37
  Speaker 1: even on that, Florida was, and Auburn struggled with that,
• 7:40
  Speaker 1: not knowing whether the run or the pass was coming.
• 7:44
  Speaker 1: I think Tennessee, the big question I have for you,
• 7:47
  Speaker 1: as good as Texas' offensive line, or I'm sorry, defensive
• 7:50
  Speaker 1: line was, you guys had a couple of guys, and
• 7:52
  Speaker 1: I didn't notice because I don't know the roster, obviously,
• 7:54
  Speaker 1: as well as you do. The guys that went out
• 7:57
  Speaker 1: for the O-line, did they come back in, or is
• 7:59
  Speaker 1: there an injury update on them for this week?
• 8:01
  Speaker 2: Mo, who is our guard, we'll see how that comes.
• 8:05
  Speaker 2: I don't know if he's going to play or not.
• 8:07
  Speaker 2: That really hurt us because our replacement wasn't very good
• 8:11
  Speaker 2: in that situation. It's hard to say. We won't know
• 8:15
  Speaker 2: for sure until tomorrow. We'll get our first injury report. And,
• 8:19
  Speaker 2: of course, then it'll change on Thursday and Friday. But
• 8:22
  Speaker 2: at least Wednesday we'll have a clue.
• 8:25
  Speaker 1: Will Josh put everybody as doubtful and then the next
• 8:28
  Speaker 1: day put them all as questionable and then the next
• 8:30
  Speaker 1: day put them all as probable and the next day
• 8:32
  Speaker 1: they're not even on the report on Saturday?
• 8:34
  Speaker 2: It won't be Lane-esque, but he does not like to
• 8:39
  Speaker 2: give out information unless he absolutely has to. He's going
• 8:42
  Speaker 2: to be very mum on it. So whatever's on there
• 8:45
  Speaker 2: will probably be somewhat accurate. I don't think he's going
• 8:48
  Speaker 2: to play a ton of games with it, but he
• 8:50
  Speaker 2: also is not going to tip his hand.
• 8:51
  Speaker 3: At all on anything.
• 8:55
  Speaker 4: Now, the injuries matter, but.
• 8:59
  Speaker 1: Does the offensive line worry you after that Texas game,
• 9:03
  Speaker 1: injuries aside, or is Texas just that good to where
• 9:06
  Speaker 1: you think this is still going to be a good
• 9:07
  Speaker 1: offensive line this year?
• 9:09
  Speaker 4: Or what were your thoughts on that?
• 9:11
  Speaker 2: You know, going into this, a lot of the experts
• 9:14
  Speaker 2: around Knoxville, Tennessee, the sports source to being one of them,
• 9:19
  Speaker 2: they were like, this offensive line concerns me. And, of course,
• 9:22
  Speaker 2: I was watching them get 290 yards a game and
• 9:24
  Speaker 2: running and going, well, maybe they're just being too nitpicky.
• 9:28
  Speaker 3: And then we go up against Texas and it just–
• 9:30
  Speaker 3: it's wide open.
• 9:31
  Speaker 2: It's like, okay, even– look, even David Sanders, who I
• 9:34
  Speaker 2: think is one of the best tackles in the country.
• 9:37
  Speaker 3: He was uncomfortable.
• 9:38
  Speaker 2: Even he got showed up a couple of times where
• 9:40
  Speaker 2: a guy just stripped his arms down and went right
• 9:41
  Speaker 2: around him. And Sanders was like, nobody does that.
• 9:45
  Speaker 3: Nobody.
• 9:47
  Speaker 2: And that guy did. He just took his hands and said, nope.
• 9:51
  Speaker 2: And then went right around him and sacked our guy. And,
• 9:53
  Speaker 2: you know, our quarterback's going, man, I need more than
• 9:55
  Speaker 2: two seconds, guys. Yeah.
• 9:57
  Speaker 3: So, you know, I don't think there'll be anybody that
• 9:59
  Speaker 3: can do that.
• 10:00
  Speaker 2: To Sanders with Auburn. But, again, that's– they'll get– here's
• 10:04
  Speaker 2: the thing. They're going to make– every team is going
• 10:06
  Speaker 2: to make Faison beat Tennessee.
• 10:08
  Speaker 3: Yeah. That's what they're going to do. Before– Beat them.
• 10:12
  Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah.
• 10:14
  Speaker 1: Some good games this weekend. Can Mississippi State stay hot
• 10:18
  Speaker 1: welcoming in Alabama this weekend? Kamario Taylor has been like
• 10:20
  Speaker 1: the story of the conference so far.
• 10:23
  Speaker 3: He's fun. I think Alabama will handle them.
• 10:26
  Speaker 2: I would watch that game, but TJ, I can't handle
• 10:30
  Speaker 2: the cowbell thing.
• 10:32
  Speaker 3: I can't handle it.
• 10:34
  Speaker 1: What's worse, the cowbell? Okay, here's a good one. I
• 10:37
  Speaker 1: didn't know we'd get to do this. What's worse, the
• 10:39
  Speaker 1: cowbell or Florida being good again?
• 10:44
  Speaker 2: Here's how I would list the most annoying things. Florida
• 10:47
  Speaker 2: being good again. Number two is the cowbell. Number three is....
• 10:56
  Speaker 1: Well, you better buckle up, because when we come to
• 10:58
  Speaker 1: your stadium in five years.
• 11:00
  Speaker 3: Oh, dude, I can't even believe it. I was watching
• 11:02
  Speaker 3: you guys the other day, and I was like, are
• 11:04
  Speaker 3: they going to do this every time? I forgot how
• 11:07
  Speaker 3: much they do the chop.
• 11:08
  Speaker 4: You should see how.
• 11:09
  Speaker 1: You can't see it because the screen cuts off, but
• 11:10
  Speaker 1: I'm ripped on the right side. Left side, not so much,
• 11:14
  Speaker 1: but it's a good calisthenic. Can Iowa take down Ohio
• 11:19
  Speaker 1: State this weekend?
• 11:22
  Speaker 3: No, absolutely not.
• 11:26
  Speaker 1: Florida has lost three of the last four at Missouri.
• 11:29
  Speaker 1: Can Drinkowitz do us one more solid or do they
• 11:32
  Speaker 1: just keep that train rolling?
• 11:34
  Speaker 2: I don't know what to think of Florida right now.
• 11:35
  Speaker 2: I'm kind of in shock. I did not expect this
• 11:38
  Speaker 2: to happen so quickly.
• 11:40
  Speaker 4: Not this fast.
• 11:41
  Speaker 3: I know. It's like, dang, at.
• 11:42
  Speaker 2: Least give me a season to prepare. And they go like,
• 11:46
  Speaker 2: you know, seven and five, eight and four, something like that.
• 11:49
  Speaker 2: and you think, okay, now I need to be worried.
• 11:52
  Speaker 2: But if they come in here and go 10-2, 11-1,
• 11:54
  Speaker 2: or something like that, that's obnoxious.
• 11:59
  Speaker 4: I think they beat Missouri.
• 12:01
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I do too.
• 12:02
  Speaker 4: I think they're better.
• 12:02
  Speaker 1: I know that they kind of trip up at times
• 12:06
  Speaker 1: up there, but I think they win that. Tennessee-Auburn, how
• 12:10
  Speaker 1: much does Tennessee win by?
• 12:13
  Speaker 2: I like the seven points. It feels like 24-17. 27-20
• 12:18
  Speaker 2: type of game to me. I don't think we'll score
• 12:21
  Speaker 2: a ton. I think we'll score enough. And they'll get
• 12:25
  Speaker 2: some points on the board against us. I like them
• 12:27
  Speaker 2: scoring 20, us scoring 27.
• 12:30
  Speaker 1: I'm interested to see, we've seen this for a couple
• 12:33
  Speaker 1: of different teams in different spots. LSU goes on the
• 12:36
  Speaker 1: road to Ole Miss, loses a game that they were
• 12:40
  Speaker 1: in right at the end and then blow it against
• 12:42
  Speaker 1: a team that they really wanted to beat for their coach.
• 12:45
  Speaker 1: And then they came back and the next week just
• 12:47
  Speaker 1: demolished Texas A & M.
• 12:49
  Speaker 4: We've seen teams rebound.
• 12:51
  Speaker 1: Auburn did it. After losing to Florida, they go and
• 12:53
  Speaker 1: beat Vandy. I am very interested to see how Tennessee
• 12:58
  Speaker 1: responds to this. I want to know, because I do
• 13:01
  Speaker 1: think that defense is really good. I think the offense
• 13:03
  Speaker 1: is going to have a better day than it did
• 13:05
  Speaker 1: last week. But I don't want the one loss to
• 13:07
  Speaker 1: turn into two. I really want to see Tennessee come
• 13:10
  Speaker 1: out and respond. I think it's really easy. not to
• 13:15
  Speaker 1: take anything away from Tennessee's performance, but I think it's
• 13:17
  Speaker 1: really easy to get up for games when it's the
• 13:21
  Speaker 1: number one team in the country, when the president's in town,
• 13:24
  Speaker 1: when they've been drinking beers and eating jelly since 10 a.m.
• 13:28
  Speaker 4: In the stands. I think all of.
• 13:30
  Speaker 1: I don't want to say that playing football is easy.
• 13:31
  Speaker 1: I think it's easy to get your emotions up and
• 13:34
  Speaker 1: rise up for that game. Do you play with the
• 13:37
  Speaker 1: same intensity when an Auburn comes to town? Which, I
• 13:39
  Speaker 1: know that Auburn's still an SEC opponent. They're 3-1, just
• 13:42
  Speaker 1: like you are. But it's not... it's not the game
• 13:45
  Speaker 1: day is not there. It's not the same popping circumstance.
• 13:47
  Speaker 1: The whole nation's not talking about you this week. So
• 13:50
  Speaker 1: can you still get up and play? Cause if they
• 13:53
  Speaker 1: play with the intensity, especially defensively, I know the offense
• 13:57
  Speaker 1: was kind of lackluster, but if they play with that
• 13:59
  Speaker 1: kind of intensity defensively, Auburn will score more than 13
• 14:02
  Speaker 1: like that, you know, but that would be my question is,
• 14:05
  Speaker 1: do you let it drop off just a bit?
• 14:07
  Speaker 4: Is it, does your foot off the gas?
• 14:09
  Speaker 1: If Tennessee plays the way that they did, at least
• 14:11
  Speaker 1: with an effort standpoint, They need to execute better offensively.
• 14:15
  Speaker 4: They'll be just fine in this game. That's my big
• 14:16
  Speaker 4: thought for the Vols this weekend.
• 14:18
  Speaker 3: Yeah, it's a 3-30 game.
• 14:20
  Speaker 2: I would prefer a 7, but 3-30 is nice.
• 14:23
  Speaker 3: They'll be ready. The fans will be ready. They like
• 14:25
  Speaker 3: this team.
