The Official #17/15 Tennessee vs. #11 Alabama Thread, 3:30 PM ET, CBS

So of there is an injury you can just reset the game clock and keep the clock running?

What stops a team from keep faking injuries with the ball in their possession?

It shouldn't have gone to 40, but 25.

Joe is a decent enough QB. Way too inconsistent to beat the elite teams in the league, especially in the road. He has played well but also missed a couple of absolutely crucial throws. There's blame to go around everywhere imo.

No he isn’t a decent enough QB. He IS NOT Even Average.

He is an athlete trying to play QB.

 

[BP4Prez]

The first half of the season team showed up for the second half of this game. What makes the angry is that the first half showed the level that this team is capable of playing. CJH is going to get the floor out of the players not their ceiling.

Book it.

He won 11 games with a 7 win roster last year.

 

[Clad in Big Orange]

If you can’t see that the officiating has been outrageously one sided, then you’re an idiot…. The hold on jeudy lolly? There have been so many no call holds on bama, it’s unreal

But we knew this coming in and the team had a 13 pt half time lead. This 2nd half is 100% on Heupel.

 

[TennTom]

Those 2 short fields didn't help. Awful calls. Against UK or Vandy maybe. Hope coach learns from this.

 

[tampavolsfan]

Milton owns a lot of this.

I have been off the Milton train for some time now. So, normally, I would agree, but what in this game has he done to make you say that? The fumble?

 

[PC Jr.]

I was wrong. Vols got more time to do something. Still hoping for magic, but everyone knows what’s about to happen.

LMAO

 

[ItchyVols]

Do you think he gives little Nicky lap dances?

 

[VOLINVONORE]

You honestly think they have only 1 penalty this entire game?

For years, I wondered hos Saban could spend all that money he makes. Now it seems pretty clear he has a close relationship with the SEC Refs.

 

[AllVols]

I would like to see us score one more time and not be shut out this entire half.

 

[jhcrane14]

The season is not over, if we finish the regular season 9-3, and we win our bowl game and get a 10 win season. It will still be at water level.

 

[SayUWantAreVOLution]

hype should have used a time out

They'd just long count again and take even more time, so no.

 

[VolFreakJosh]

I hate that this feeds into some sort of narrative that Saban’s a genius because he’s not.

He just buys the best talent until other schools were allowed to do the same thing

 

[TennesseeOrange]

Hes a big Auburn fan.

Yeah… only one way to make the iron bowl important.

 

[JohnD13]

Blame refs all you want this is an epic collapse

 

[Manning4ever]

Refs diffently affected this game, but not 27/0 run. Coach Heupel deserves credit when he is right, and criticism when he is wrong

 

[OrangeVolMan]

The refs didn't cause Bama to go on a 27-0 run.

They did help. Bogus fair catch and bogus pass inference calls were big.

 

[Other_Guy]

Don’t you love it? We totally melted down and didn’t bother to show up in the second half. That’s players and coaches both. Why blame refs for this debacle?

You realize a few key holds changes games?

 

[djohnnyg]

Notice Milton ALWAYS folds late.

 

[vols 30]

Y'all hating on CJH is hard to figure. You realize we'd be trailing by 30 under the previous 3 clowns we had running the team.

9-3 or 8-4 is still a good year

 

[ChaplainVol]

NOPE... only the weak minded won't factor in the officiating. The rest will weather the storm with some class. True of every fanbase.

Wrong. The weak minded look for problems outside of their own. The weak minded blame the factors outside of their control while ignoring what they control for themselves. The weak minded make excuses.

The refs did not force us calling up the gut, predictable plays, on 4th and 1. The refs did not drop catchable balls. The refs did not blow a 20-7 lead.

Reality is Saban's staff in his twilight are more disciplined and talented that CJH's in his current prime at UT. We have stability. Now it is time to recognize our failures and turn the corner.

 

[JCHateSteve]

****wit Gary trying to say we are faking injuries.

I mean we were. But teams do that to us every week. So they can sit on it and rotate. If the NCAA doesn't like it they can change the rules to stop it.

 

[PC Jr.]

I have been off the Milton train for some time now. So, normally, I would agree, but what in this game has he done to make you say that? The fumble?

I’ve been clear. He can’t make the right quick decisions. For goodness sake, he’s a 6th year senior.
