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

[leftygray]

One penalty against Alabama for 5 yards today. A near perfect performance, somehow.

Well it must be obvious to even the most casual observer by now that Joe won't be able to lead this team to another extraordinary season. Once again it looks like 8-4 is our ceiling with 7-5 a real possibility. So, once again, why not move on from Joe now? It's hard for me to believe that Nico isn't ready by now to step in for the Kentucky, Connecticut, Missouri and Vanderbilt games. Georgia, of course, will be another beat down so why not let Nico begin his Tennessee career today. Joe, unfortunately, will not even get a walk-on tryout in the NFL. Let's get an early start on 2024 and let Nico play these games this year which, in turn, will be of great benefit to Nico and Tennessee next year IMHO.

How many games can he play in before he loses his redshirt?

 

[Manchester Vol]

Georgia will beat them by 3 TDS. May lose to Missouri and Ky.

And UCon and Vandy and Everyone else forevermore.

Sickening

 

[jhcrane14]

Let’s face it, we got outcoached and outplayed in the second half. But it’s one game. Learn from our mistakes and move on.

Don’t let the same mistake beat you twice.

 

[TennTom]

I have never seen a game in my long life of one team having one penalty for 5 yards. Holy chit. COME ON!

 

[rumaso11]

This game was SO RIGGED!!!!!!!!

 

[VolsFan-TX]

This is 100% on the coaches

No it’s not. We have to have guys step and play the dang game. Coaches sucked in the 2nd half, but the offense did absolutely nothing in the 2nd half.

 

[SmashMouth]

I feel bad for the boys on the field. Epic, humiliating meltdown. I would be burning up right now, standing out there. Really bad

 

[Vols919]

Can't wait for the entire CBS crew to **** off forever.

 

[SayUWantAreVOLution]

As bad as the refs have been in this game, we got out coached in the second half.

 

[Clad in Big Orange]

Next year....the OL better not have many questions. Enough of that. If your ID is offense and running then fix the OL for games like this. These are the ones you have to compete in a win.

The oline will be worse next year.

 

[tnvols72]

I think what is more embarrassing is that Bama is not that good and neither are we

 

[volnutlolol]

Saban made adjustments at halftime. Heupel… not so much.

yup. bama, special coaching. Vols speshulll coaching

 

[SonOfGodVolforlife]

The refs made sure bama covered. Smh the commentators are gushing rn can’t wait to these two clowns are gone.

 

[gray0306]

season over...crap bowl game

 

[Bloodrunsorange27]

Joe basically just threw the ball away on 4th down. Good job there to just throw it away

 

[TecceT]

That was embarrassing. You play lights out in first half then decide not to come out after the half

 

[Caz]

I’m disappointed and beyond pissed but not surprised as I’ve been watching TN football for so many years not to expect it. It’s a damn curse!

 

[ETV]

Bama fans smoke like amateurs.

This…. Fing ********

 

[Mccage]

This is 100% on the coaches

How? Tell us please

 

[jim285pro]

Cold hard truth. We are an immature team. We are not well coached. Not prepared to handle the moment. If Nico is worse than Joe then he was highly overrated.

 

[dillyo51]

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 was never on the Milton train.

 

[KeyVol14]

We paly like shat on the road. It's that simple..

Didn't capitalize in redzone
