If jimmyF loses this game it will be easy to point to his inexcusable choice to not go for 2 to go up 7 in the 4th qt.

He went for 2 to go up 14 so that decision is irrelevant

Saw CJP's presser after the game and I'm loving that emotion from our coach. He's the right coach for right now and what these kids need. They've been beaten down by the last coach and have a coach who's expressing how much he cares and he's not abandoning them due to their lack of talent. He's trying to coach what he's got. That's a coach. They're playing for this man on defense. Whenever I thought of the 3-4 I thought of that Sunseri disaster and yet CJP is making it work with what he's got.

I think this team is more talented than the results on the field shows. They just don't know it. They don't have any confidence in themselves. I think that's what coach pruitt is trying to do, convince them they are good.

This. His dumb point is dumb

Well no it isn't. If he goes the first time and makes it he only kicks an extra point the second time. The first time was after a more physical and longer drive so making it seemed easier at that point with a tired D imo

Lol

It’s the exact same decision. Easy to understand

 

[InVOLuntary]

Wife beaters gonna win.

 

[engineerVOL]

Man I wish that Auburn game was in Knoxville. We can beat them.

If Pruitt can’t manage a signature win in year one, I don’t know how he rallies for a signing day class to be proud of.

This is the only game to me that he’s capable of winning that even sniffs “signature.”

 

[BruinVol]

Lol

Yes it's easy to understand you always go for 2 to make it a 7pt game in the 4th qt. The only exception might be in a shootout but this game was 19-14 at the time.

Wut

 

[Smokey123]

That’s some Helton type play call right there lol

 

[engineerVOL]

The heck is Franklin doing taking the ball out of McSorley’s hands???? For the game?

 

[chavisut]

Unbelievable

 

[BruinVol]

Just an awful 4th qt of coaching by jimmyF

 

[Jimmy Football]

Helton calling plays for Penn St now.

 

[The Dog]

Worst 4th and 5 play call ever

 

[VolsnCards5]

terrible play call from PSU

He’s kinda right. You go for it to there, but it ultimately had zero outcome on the game like you said

 

[Bruce Wayne]

ZONE READ JIMMY FRANKS?!? Woof.

 

[Pepe_Silvia]

Choke of the year right there.

 

[volfanCLT]

You waste a TO to run an inside zone on 4th and 5

 

[jordan4vols]

Well no it isn't. If he goes the first time and makes it he only kicks an extra point the second time. The first time was after a more physical and longer drive so making it seemed easier at that point with a tired D imo

How are you struggling with this? It’s the same as “only kicking the extra point” in your scenario he just did it backwards by waiting to go for two after the second td to be up 14.

I’ve seen you argue a lot of things but this one might take the cake

 

[Jimmy Football]

It's undoubtedly true that college football is top heavy right now, but the "challenger" tier right below the elite tier isn't helping with garbage like that.
