So what has happened to Tennessee’s WR..

Thornton? Two TD's first game and nothing that I can find with NC STATE & Kent State?

Thanks

They aren't playing him much. No need yet. He had a 53 yard catch against Kent St.

Nico is spreading the ball around. I'm wondering if his favorite targets aren't the guys we are used to seeing though.

NC St took away the downfield passing game. They paid the price by us pounding the rock.

Last week it wasn't needed.

It's like asking what has happened to our all-world James Pearce? Why am I not hearing his name more ?

Pearce is ok. He played 14 snaps against Kent State, all in the first half. Kent State attempted 5 passes in the first half. Pearce had 3 hurries.

I was joking.

You can't make plays if they aren't there to make. Opposing teams know who our playmaker are and they do everything they can to take them out of the game

Pierce almost had one sack, but the ref let the Kent St guy use the Bama technique of the arm around the throat to hold him back.

Ah yes, the old bama hook. They use the same move to corral their cousin wives.

They're playing everybody. Tennessee had 30+ players play on defense in the 1st qt against NCSt.
