The Northern Illinois game

Well we won the game. Nick Stephens played well. However the rest of the offense did not do him any favors. We still lacked in the running game, we still only scored 1 touchdown. and we still need help. If they don't somehow find a way to have some explosive type offense it is going to be a long season. The defense played well but still nothing special. I love Gerald Jones as a play maker but I am afraid he is just not a receiver. He lacks the height. Also its time to give Creer a lot of reps to see what he can do.

VOLS chicken

Being from Tennessee, It only seems natuaral to have a chicken recipe named after us. This one has been in my family for years. I hope you enjoy it. If you do please let me know.
Its called VOLS chicken because of the ingredients in the maridnade.
V=vinegar O=oil L=lemon S=soy
1 part vinegar, 1 part oil, 1 part lemon juice(the kind in the green bottle) 1/2 part soy
i.e. 1 cup vinegar, 1 cup oil, 1 cup lemon juice, 1/2 cup soy sauce.
Mix all the ingredients in a large zip lock bag or large bowl. Add Chicken and let marinade for as long as you would like. Overnight is best.
Grill and serve….your gonna love it

Dont expect to much from Stephens

I like most Tennesse fans am glad to see a change at QB. however I don’t expect Nick Stephens will be the next Peyton Manning or even Casy Claussen for that matter. I do think it will be an improvement over what we have had to endure of the the last four games. Quarterbacks are funny you just never know what will happen. Take Eric Ainge for instance. As a freshman he did things that made me think we had landed the best QB in the country. Then he got hurt and Rick Claussen had a great game against Texas A&M in the bowl game and the QB’s conterversy began. Ainge never recovered. Crompton had a cpl good games in relief of an injured Ainge. Now he cant line-up. The qould of QB’s seems to be unpredictable. So I for one am not expecting to much from Stephens. But it cant be worse then has already.
I think it will be a close game in the first half, but Tennessee will dominate the second half.
Auburn will eventually get Vandy late in the game.
Alabama will crush Kentucky
South Carolina edges out Ole’Miss
Florida takes care of Arkansas easily.
