The Official Tennessee vs. #20 Missouri Game Thread, 7:30pm ET, ESPN

Somewhere in Dallas, Dooley is having a good chuckle over that challenge

 

[ETV]

we bit off a little more than we could chew with this game. I think the moment overwhelmed us.

1. lack of execution.
2. less than creative play calling for 3 quarters
3. weak offensive line shows up again.

It is what it is.

Arky gon whip de ass

 

[DallasVol92]

And the worse o in the sec still beats us. We have some great talent on D, but we need a few more studs.

And a game plan that fits our talent on O!!! I still think the learning curve for the o coaching staff is killing us.

If it is possible to score an 0 out of 10 on timeout management for your coaching report card, Butch got it done tonight.

 

[UTAlum03]

Timeouts weren't going to win us this game.

Would be cool to have a coach who knows how to use to our advantage though.

 

[knoxvol16]

that last drive was made up of plays that Tennessee should have been running earlier in the game.....

I just said the same thing.

 

[maotai]

Sadly, and it breaks my heart to say it, but the better team won tonight - for the 3rd year in a row.

imo the less crappy team won.

who the heck allowed les miles to teach this coaching staff how to manage a clock

 

[theutvolunteers]

Timeouts weren't going to win us this game.

Thank you

 

[WesternNCVol]

Goodnight vol fans. This place will go full retard now. We are gonna be ok.

 

[IN Jed]

At least butch will own it but this has been a head scratcher

 

[90 Vol]

Don't lose sight of the fact that we got dry screwed on the first onside kick. The refs essentially created an offside penalty after the review that they didn't even call before the review.

 

[Volstylexx]

I'd like to see MO's Defense against Bama in the SEC Championship game.

 

[gr82batnvol]

This was a coaching loss on many fronts. Jones had a minute and a half before half and sat on it. And the debacle at the end of the game were just two obvious coaching goofs. Come on Butch...gotta do better than that.

 

[ukvols]

That challenge was indefensible. It took us out of the game.
I am beginning to think it was dumb luck that we had all three timeouts when he needed to get the ball back late in the SCar game.

 

[WriterVol]

Every week we blame it on the refs.

They didn't cost anyone the game, but it's not too much to ask that they do their jobs.

 

[CAVPUT]

Yes, Missouri slightly better talent but our staff really got out coached.

A lot better talent but we were out coached.

 

[knoxvol16]

imo the less crappy team won.

+1

Better stated.

 

[volinbama256]

shut the music off!!!! embarrassing

 

[UT_King]

Game management very suspect

Suspect? Butch ***** blew it. Kirk knows more about coaching, let's hire him.

 

[mpfvol]

Bring the Fing house

 

[orangegrass]

the way we played tonight could make the Vandy game very interesting

Really!

 

[acd4476]

butch made a dumb call earlier this year vs florida at end of game. accepted penalty when he should have declined.

 

[peerless98]

Worse use of timeouts ive ever seen. That's ridiculous.

You must be too young to remember Dooley!
