It’s game week in Knoxville. That can only mean one thing.

The odds are strong we’re about to witness another cringeworthy Butch Jones presser.

    It looks like “The Vols (3-2) were off last week but suffered a 41-0 loss to Georgia two weeks ago. It was Tennessee’s most lopsided loss in Neyland Stadium history;” is now the official electronic signature over at the WWL!

      Yep. The got two full weeks’ mileage out of that one.

      Plus the “Indiana State, UMass, and Georgia Tech” meme may on go much longer.

      Good times.

    Or “..fell on a helmet..” bullshit. Have you ever heard of someone injuring themselves in the eye by falling on a helmet? Not saying it could not happen.. but sounds pretty bogus to me.

      Did you not see the comments after the fight last week that Taylor didn’t kick Smith in the face, Smith fell on Taylor’s cleats.

    Wait a minute – why is Taylor being suspended when Smith accidentally fell and his his head on Taylor’s cleats? I don’t get it.

      Don’t think you’re supposed to get it. Seems like Butch’s goal is to confuse things whenever he opens his mouth.

      We’ll have to wait til gametime to learn if Darrell’s cleats have been suspended.

      Butch has been much more entertaining this year than Boom.

      So, Go Vols.

    If you enjoy schadenfreude, and I do, you’ve been reading Volnation the past couple of weeks. When this story came out, you actually had posters commenting that “these kids are alpha males, stuff like this will happen.” That in response to a guy kicking his teammate in the face with cleats! Vol fans deserve that team.

    If Smith enjoyed getting kicked in the face by Taylor, he’s gonna love the bama game in 12 days.

    Honestly, a good, competitive team can have fights. I guess it depends on what “fights” really means though. Tussles broken up by teammates is fine. Head kicking not so much.

    I thought I remember seeing that vegasinsider has the bye week favored by 6.5. So they beat the spread … maybe that’s what he meant.

    I feel like they should have Baghdad Bob as the Tennessee SID, at this point.

    All it took was the one-two combo to Jeb’s helmet the other week over nothing to realize: a) This kid has some issues and b) He’s not the sharpest tool in the shed. The helmet always wins that fight.

    They’ll be well rested for the remainder of Butch’s year –

    T minus 1 week to Boom go the Gamecocks
    T minus 2 weeks to they call Alabama the Crimson Elephants
    T minus 3 weeks to Ashley Judd’s Wildcats
    T minus 4 weeks to the south Mississippi All-Star Golden Eagles
    T minus 5 weeks to the Tigers
    T minus 6 weeks to the Mike the Tiger
    T minus 7 weeks to the blowing of the Admiral
