HALFTIME IN KNOXVILLE: Tennessee 14, UMass 6.

Not a good half for the #Vols, but it ended a lot better than it started.

#Vols QB Quinten Dormady in the first half: 14-of-19, 154 yards, 1 TD, 0 INT. Did lose a fumble, though.

Would this be a bad time to note that UMass lost to Hawaii, Coastal Carolina, Old Dominion and Temple?

Column: It's time to at least consider the possibility that this #Vols team just isn't very good: http://bit.ly/2xnfzdU


QuoteWhile watching Tennessee fight like crazy to hold off winless UMass for a 17-13 win in a shockingly small crowd at Neyland Stadium, though, I started thinking the exact opposite.

The best-case scenario for Tennessee is that its players were uninspired, unfocused and undisciplined Saturday afternoon.

Why is that the best-case scenario? Because here are the other options: Tennessee's coaches couldn't put their superior talent in position to dismantle an outmanned opponent, or the Vols just aren't very good. Or both.

Those are the options. There are three of them.

What UMass said: Tennessee heat, pass rush and depth was too much http://sec.news/2xodzCa   #VFL


QuoteKNOXVILLE, Tenn. — Massachusetts coach Mark Whipple said the weather and Tennessee's depth was just too much for his Minutemen on Saturday.

"In the second half I think the weather zapped both teams a little bit," Whipple said, asked about the Neyland Stadium temperatures that reached the mid-90s at field level. "It was a tough place to play."

The Vols (3-1) held on for a 17-13 win over UMass (0-5), with both offenses struggling mightily in the second half.

Tennessee managed just 58 yards of offense the final minutes, while the Minutemen went for 120 yards in a second half that's only scoring was a touchdown (UMass) and field goal (Vols) in the third quarter.

Of course, the first quarter was also scoreless, leading to a pretty boring game...

Having to face Georgia next week seems less than ideal for Tennessee right now.

UMass is one of the worst teams in D-1 football.
