Summary
GoVols247’s full crew — Wes Rucker, Patrick Brown, Ryan Callahan and Grant Ramey — went into Fort Rucker Studio to discuss Tennessee’s shocking, 38-30 loss to Georgia State last weekend at Neyland Stadium.
How in the world did that happen? It wasn’t one thing, obviously. It was a large collection of mistakes that culminated in one of the worst days in the history of one of college football’s winningest programs. Those mistakes are discussed in detail in this episode.
Can this situation be fixed in the short term? And how? That also is discussed in detail in this episode.
Recruiting news, as always, also is discussed in the week’s first episode. Tennessee had several prospects in town over the weekend, and it seems the game’s result didn’t have much of a devastating effect on them. The reasons for that also are discussed in this episode.
The next GoVols247 Podcast episode — a full episode — will be released Thursday morning, unless breaking news occurs before that point.

| 1:21.8 | anything that I mean we were we were all going into that game thinking |
| 1:26.7 | Tennessee needs to do exactly what it did play a lot of guys experiment with some things you know |
| 1:32.0 | we were we were viewing it as a |
| 1:33.9 | preseason game and I almost wonder if Tennessee approached it like a |
| 1:37.4 | preseason game because I think they had to be surprised by how competitive it |
| 1:41.2 | was and even once it became obvious that it was going to be a |
| 1:43.6 | dog fight they just couldn't pull out of it so just one of those days that I mean you |
