For me, it was year one Vandy. We were nursing a 4 point lead into the 4th quarter, like 13 to 9? Butch kept running the hurry up offense and I was screaming to the Heavens 'RUN THE CLOCK! RUN THE CLOCK YOU IDIOT!!' And Vandy scored with 1:15 to go. Easily could have been run out from the previous two drives by simply snapping at 2. NOT 19!
For me it was the 2015 Oklahoma game. The absolute loudest I've ever heard Neyland for an entire game. Took my daughter who was in the 6th grade to that game and she's watched every UT game since. Butch kicking the field goal on the 6 inch line was a serious WTF moment. When we lost that game walking out of the stadium holding my daughter's hand should have been one of the most awesome moments of her childhood (it was because it was my girl) but we were both sick over that loss.
It's that type of BS that makes me want to move on from Butch. The Vandy game of not running the clock. This year at the end of FLA I was screaming 'YOU IDIOT! DON'T THROW IT!" The series prior to the field goal, Butch ran alot of clock. I was happy. Then, 1st and Goal...three straight incompletions. FLA sitting on 2 TO's. Didn't force 'em to use 'em. Instead, stopped the clock all 3 plays. Ridiculous coaching. There's at least 2 games every year this happens. ANY half way decent coach get us 2 wins per year more than what we've had the last 5. Gruden can say 'no', I sure hope he doesn't. But there's an a$$load of upgrades out there and I am SO ready.
