| Fulmer knows Vols can't afford to lose at Georgia KNOXVILLE — Tennessee wide receiver Josh Briscoe didn't sugarcoat the situation. "If we play the way we did Saturday, we won't beat many (Southeastern Conference) teams," Briscoe said. The comment pointed to UT's measly offensive output during its slim 13-9 victory against Northern Illinois at Neyland Stadium. It was another disturbing scoring effort for the Volunteers, in a game that previous UT teams would have had in hand by halftime. It all added up to some serious stress for fans who know a potentially season-changing showdown is less than a week away. UT plays at No. 10 Georgia on Saturday, and a magical week of practice will be needed for UT to dig itself out of a cavernous hole. When asked if this was more of a must-win or a game of pride, UT Coach Phillip Fulmer didn't hesitate. "It's all of the above," Fulmer said. "It's not business as usual. This is a very important time for us as we fight like heck to stay in the championship mix and hope somebody else gets beat." Realistically, it doesn't look good for the Volunteers. Despite stellar play by the defense, Fulmer said the offense is still a work in progress and new starting quarterback Nick Stephens needs to improve. Those flaws can be masked against a team from the Mid-American Conference, but not against a top program like Georgia. Story

| Re: Fulmer knows Vols can't afford to lose at Georgia Careful my friend, Stoneys living it up this year, but you are right I think, if Phil whips the Bulldogs this week and plants a Big Orange foot in the Big Red Elep. back side, all will be forgiven. Those are a couple big IF'S though. |
