Going to the bar, who's ready for one?

 

[BenGrimm]

Pretty dissapointied in clock Mgmt at the end of the half.

 

[Doyle Hargraves]

Love the new Avatar

Trailer Park Boys rule!

Goes from Butch Stones. Jones, to Butch "conservative" Jones. We had three TOs and didn't even try to get in FG position.

Our offense hasn't been doing very well. Better to go in ties then give the ball back trying to force it with the way the offense was going. Go in and make adjustments.

 

[JohnD13]

Not sure I agree with just running the clock out and not atleast throwing one to try and get into field goal range

We have done NOTHING and get the ball back to start the half....Stick to your day job....

 

[dbrum5]

Three timeouts and two plus minutes left. Should have used one there and try and make something happen! Playing not to lose in my opinion!

 

[Creeker]

We're really lucky to be tied. Need to re group at half especially on offense.

 

[Escape Goat]

I was in Neyland for that.
Damn you, Dooley.

Lucky. I would have died laughing.

 

[CMvol]

Well that series to end the half was reminiscent of drooley...

Dude have you been watching their D com'on man.. we are going to get the ball back at the start of the half..

 

[UTodd01]

I like how he stays level headed.

Some coaches would push there since the fake FG worked.

I think Butch plays poker.

 

[tnuhcvols]

Granted I'm not reading every post but I'm seeing a lot of screen names in this thread that I never see on a day to day basis.

my gosh gibby what are you trying to say she's standing right here

 

[Godfatha]

Hate that kind of decision. three timeouts with over a minute to play.

 

[chieftn15]

I don't even know how we are even in this game with the team we have just had to rag tag together. This has been going back to old school football. Field position and the kicking game!

 

[Deputy Fife]

Worked out perfect.

1:15 w/ 3 left

Missouri botched it, they could have drained it to a minute. It's a moot point anyway as Butch has decided not to use the possession.

 

[Obsessed]

Wtf did I just see?

 

[utvolkyle06]

CBJ, did not want to make a silly mistake on our side of the field and we get the ball first in the third. You to know when to hold them and when to fold them.

 

[WesternNCVol]

Offense is sputtering. I'm good with conservative ending of half. Best adjustments win this one.

 

[SmokeyTop]

"Playing NOT to lose...instead of playing to WIN!"

Yep

 

[amavol2]

Curious why we aren't changing Dobbs launch point!

Piss off I simply questioned it. What do you think this forum is for? Stick to YOUR day job.

 

[LittleCat]

Hate that kind of decision. three timeouts with over a minute to play.

bayern having a nice season so far

 

[ukvols]

I like this.

Get to the half and take the ball 2nd half.

Do you just roll with everything the coaches do?

You were happy to have the 1:15 and three timeouts instead of saving several seconds by calling timeout after the stop; it looked like you felt we had a good chance to score.
Now, you're happy to run it out.

 

[Doyle Hargraves]

I don't care about your opinion at all, bro.

You need to get off of LC's back.

 

[tim]

Hate that kind of decision. three timeouts with over a minute to play.

And we get the ball in the second half
