Funny thing is it had been plenty successful yet everyone here doesn't mention that
Interesting thoughts on the 2pt decision.
Cbj is on the record saying that before the drive the decision was made to kick the extra point based on the "chart". I actually agree with that decision at that time. Keep in mind that was in the 3rd QT and it's true you shouldn't go for 2 in the 3rd QT
However the length of the drive went so much longer than our normal drives that he just failed to reevaluated his "chart"
Doesn't make me feel any better or excuse him at all but it does explain why the "chart" said what it said IMO
Again volssam, just so effing stupid. You're the jester of the board and bring some good info, too. But this just always lights a fire in me. And I will call you out on this every single time. Just stick with gif's and football. You're much better with that..
Good call. Just like the last TD was in the third quarter not the fourth, right Bruin?
Bruin stated the drive started in the 3rd. & if we had scored a TD in the 3rd, I would have agreed the XP would have been the correct call. He said, if I remember correctly, that butch probably checked the pat decision when the drive started in the 3rd.

Exactly
Some posters just can't wait to jump on me. It's really sad sometimes
I quoted you, and CBJ didn't use the word "started" once. Not that it matters given that the td was scored 5 minutes into the 4th, so who cares when it started.
And you're a pretentious snob in the way you passive aggressively talk down to people, that's why people like to shoot down your illogical, incorrect posts.
Man, just drop it. You can't defend the decisions he made in this game. Okie, maybe due to some plays that should have been made that would have made their strategy work. But, this was so poor it can't be defended. When he comes out with the remarks he did as his press conference, it is not to sound good with recruits, it is because he believes it. The on field coaching makes him look like an idiot and then what he said in his press conference confirms it. He is going to screw this up if he doesn't learn to take some responsibility and fix it.
The top running D in the nation got hit for 254 yards that evening and Dobbs had only managed 80 in the air. We will run all day
Florida wasn't even with us. Their OL situation isn't peachy at all, defense was beat up, and there are three other defenders on Maggit's level. As far as offensive improvement, I dunno, maybe people thought there would be development through coaching.Fine. I'm just sick of this Emo bullsh!t. We knew ahead of time we were even with UF and we knew we had a streak and our main advantage (Curt Maggitt out).
We lost. It sucks. It feels bloody awful.
However, he last thing we need is instability and it's stupid as hell that folks don't 'get' how bad our oline situation is. We were always a team that was going to love or die with our defense this year. No idea why folks thought our offense was going to magically get better.
Vol fans don't need rivals. We have ourselves and yes, we were this bad in 1998 too.
On the bright side we got a pretty good team on our hands. Gaulden injury is proving to be really big. We have pretty much played entire season without Pig our leading WR from last year. We haven't clicked in pass game yet we should still be 4-0. When's the last time we said that?
