Josh Malone cost us this game.

You betcha

 

[InVOLuntary]

You win as a team and lose as a team. The players stunk it up and the coaches stunk it up, particularly the offensive play calling.

 

[KokoBVol]

Everyone gets a share of the blame. Butch, coordinators,players.

 

[unioncityvol]

I hope that's the last time I ever hear 3rd down for what.

 

[VolGee4]

I just didn't agree with the offsides call.

But the Malone play was the turning point.

In order:
Malone
OL
Coleman
Playcalling

Jones dropped the ball when it came to timeout management. I'm glad we're most likely going to head to a bowl though.

 

[nashvol1]

That was horrible management by our coaches. Did not cost the game but it is third or fourth time o have questioned Butch's decision making late in games.

 

[SigNu_VolFan]

So we can't be critical?

I'll probably think of those three timeouts he didn't use.....

Did I say you can't be critical?

One decision on whether or not to challenge is not the reason we lost this game.

 

[nashvol1]

In order:
Malone
OL
Coleman
Playcalling

Game management on the list too.

It was a bad decision. Period. One of many this game.

 

[SigNu_VolFan]

After the south Carolina game absolutely

With our fanbase, it's all about the flavor of the moment mistake. I agree 100% with you that it's weird to take that challenge. But I won't pin our loss on it.

Butch pulling a Dooley and not going for anything at the end of the first half.

Doesn't make it a good late game decision. Poor management.

 

[JacketVol]

Josh Malone cost us this game.

And not Coleman or whomever. Lose and win as a team. Other things happen and that one play would not have matter. Still a horrible play but not the only bad play in the game.

 

[OddFuture]

Game management on the list too.

Playcalling/game management

Coaches decisions whatever

 

[SigNu_VolFan]

It was a bad decision. Period. One of many this game.

I never said it wasn't a bad decision. Again, I won't pin our loss on it. We made 4 quarters of mistakes.

 

[nashvol1]

Playcalling/game management

They are different things actually.

 

[VolGee4]

Butch pulling a Dooley and not going for anything at the end of the first half.

He did at the end if the first half against UGA last year and it was the right call.

 

[volprof]

Perhaps the dumbest game and management Butch and company have had here.

 

[pierce60]

I just really want to know who was offside on thE first onside kick? There was nobody offside....unless they called the kicker.

 

[nashvol1]

I never said it wasn't a bad decision. Again, I won't pin our loss on it. We made 4 quarters of mistakes.

True

 

[chavisut]

Forgive my wording during the moment. I did not literally mean that was the one reason we lost.

 

[volatil]

I'm not pinning the loss on that call. I am saying he cost us a chance to get the ball back.

Look I'm a Butch fan but he screwed that up bad

 

[SigNu_VolFan]

Doesn't make it a good late game decision. Poor management.

Agreed. See response to chavisut.
