    Ivy Insights

    The GoVols247: A Tennessee Volunteers athletics podcast is a must-listen for any UT Alumni or die-hard Vols fan. As someone who lives in Big Ten country, this podcast helps me stay connected to my beloved team and get my Big Orange fix. Wes and his team provide entertaining and honest insight into all things Vols, making it a daily show that I always look forward to.

    One of the best aspects of this podcast is the interesting topics and intelligent insight provided by Wes and his team. They cover a wide range of subjects related to the University of Tennessee, including football, basketball, recruiting, and more. Their experience shows in their discussions, and they always give honest assessments of what is going on with the team.

    I appreciate that the guys on this podcast are not just homers and blindly support the Vols. They give realistic and balanced assessments of the team's performance and progress. It's refreshing to hear their opinions without bias, and they back up their analysis with facts. Their water cooler office humor adds an entertaining element to the show.

    While there are many positive aspects to this podcast, one small criticism is that Wes tends to interrupt or talk over guests or his co-hosts at times. This can be distracting and makes it hard to listen to the constant interruptions. However, it's a minor issue in an otherwise great podcast.

    In conclusion, The GoVols247: A Tennessee Volunteers athletics podcast is a fantastic resource for any Vol fan who wants to stay updated on all things orange. Wes, Grant, Patrick, and Ryan do a phenomenal job providing informative and entertaining content while maintaining balance and honesty in their discussions.

    There's no game for Tennessee football on Saturday, but it's still been quite the week for the program with the Vols facing the reality of being out of College Football Playoff contention after the loss to Oklahoma. GoVols247's Ben McKee and Patrick Brown came together for a big-picture discussion on the state of Tennessee football coming off its third loss of the season and the discourse surrounding head coach Josh Heupel. This week has seen the discourse on Heupel and the Vols range from frustration and anger to comments from former players denigrating Heupel's outlook on Rocky Top. Then you have Kirk Herbstreit calling out Tennessee fans who want Heupel gone (there aren't many, but there are some) and saying the Vols need to lock him down for the long term. As if that wasn't enough, one national columnist thinks Heupel should leave Tennessee and go to Penn State. What do make of all of that? More importantly, what does Tennessee need to do over its final three games to salvage this season? And what changes do Heupel and the Vols need to make in the offseason to maintain their success and get over the hump to true championship contention? We discuss it all.

    GoVols247's Patrick Brown and Ryan Callahan break down Tennessee's 33-27 home loss to Oklahoma at Neyland Stadium on Saturday night. The Vols saw their College Football Playoff chances snuffed out with three games to go as Josh Heupel's team lost to Josh Heupel's alma mater. Tennessee could have been out of sight early, but a slew of mistakes on offense squandered multiple opportunities for early scores and separation on the scoreboard. A missed field goal and three turnovers represented a huge swing as the Sooners led at the break despite the Dark Mode having big advantages in yards, plays run, first downs and third-down conversions. Then the offense, defense and special teams took turns letting Tennessee down in the second half as Oklahoma took the lead in the third quarter and held off some late attempts at a rally with a fourth-down stop on a dropped pass looming large against the Vols. We discussed what went wrong and where the Vols go from here with their Playoff hopes done.

    GoVols247's Patrick Brown and Ryan Callahan get you ready for Tennessee's game at Kentucky with a preview of the matchup between the Vols and Wildcats in Lexington. First we react to the first availability report of the week, which included Tennessee leading tackler Arion Carter? Why is the linebacker on the injury report and what are his chances of playing? Who would need to step up if Carter is sidelined this week? Then we discussed Kelsey Pope's comments about Tennessee's top wide receiver trio playing so many snaps, Josh Heupel saying the Vols will continue to rotate on their offensive line and the play of the red-hot DeSean Bishop. Finally we previewed the matchup with Kentucky. The Wildcats are just 2-4 and winless in SEC play and Mark Stoops is on the hot seat, but they just took Texas to overtime (and should have won the game) and earlier played Ole Miss tough in another home game. Why should Tennessee be concerned and confident? Patrick admitted is he down on the Vols, but not out. Should he be? Ryan gave his take on a maddening Tennessee team that has talent, spirit and a certain relentlessness about it, but is also so mistake-prone.
