00:00Today, but then you got Tennessee that's kind of feeling themselves right now, 36-23 was
00:08their victory over Vanderbilt.
00:10Vanderbilt team that's actually been pretty decent defensively, at least in the beginning
00:13half of the year.
00:14Nico Ayamailiva, .257 through the air, four touchdowns, only one interception, but they
00:19did not only rely on the aerial attack, no, Samson on the ground, still 178 through 25
00:25carries.
00:26This guy's impossible to stop.
00:27No matter who he goes against, he's going to find a way to touch 100 rushing yards.
00:31What did you make of Tennessee versus Vanderbilt?
00:33And what would you make of Tennessee taking on Georgia again, if this game happened today?
00:39They'd be with a very big shot.
00:41I mean, of the last couple of weeks, they've needed a couple of dominoes to fall in their
00:46favor to really make it tilt towards the college football playoffs.
00:49And they've got it.
00:50Everything seems to be going in the right direction here for the volunteers.
00:54They had to put up 12 points in the second half to get the score, but for the Commodores,
00:58they tried to rally.
00:59They just couldn't find that spark late in this one.
01:02So for Tennessee, I was very impressed.
01:04Nico, at quarterback, he was fantastic again.
01:07He goes with the four passing touch, just gave it up on one occasion, but he was really
01:12impressive.
01:1318 for 26, 18, 18, 18 completions, I should say from 26 attempts.
01:19He's playing some really efficient football at the right point of the season.
01:23Samson got it going with that run game, 178 rushing yards for the volunteers.
01:28So I thought this was another really big spot.
01:31They came into this week, they're right in the thick of it in terms of the playoff rankings,
01:35what's projected and what would happen after today.
01:38And I think that absolutely give Georgia a scare.
01:40For the old Bulldogs, I mean, they almost got dusted last night.
01:45They couldn't stop a nosebleed right now.
01:47So they're not playing great football.
01:50Volunteers absolutely are, and that offense is looking fantastic.
01:54You don't want to take a shot at Nico's last name, Doves?
01:56You want to give it?
01:57I am Mark Leva.
01:58Nico, I am Mark Leva.
01:59That's how I've got it, and to Nico, if I'm being disrespectful, apologies, I blame the
02:06Australian accent.
02:07It is not an easy one for your boy.
02:09Oh, wow.
02:10You get to use the accent as a bailout.
02:12I have said his last name in probably seven different variations all season long.
02:16But the more confidently and quickly you attack it, I'm pretty sure we're all going to get
02:20it right eventually.
02:21But I couldn't agree more.
02:22Some bleeding for Georgia.
02:23We'll find out what paints out down the way.
