The Official Tennessee vs. Purdue Music City Bowl Game Thread, 3:00 PM ET, ESPN

[CaliVol2009]

Such a cop out from the refs. Pussy call

Absolute joke call.

 

[508mikey]

That feels like the only play we have. All or nothing. Not very creative.

That's what did in Leach

 

[firestorm]

He literally never says anything positive. If he's not a troll then he's the most miserable person i've ever seen.

So that would be the glass is completely empty.

I decided to create something original from something existing instead of the whole glass being half empty cliche.

 

[casetopia]

We scored 21 easy then quit playing. Focus guys. Need to learn to play 4 quarters.

 

[BigALWiLson]

Take a knee because they get the football to start the 2nd Half.

Wrong

 

[VOL_Lyfe]

Hasn't been some of his best work..

Need to slow the game down until HH finds his mojo

 

[lexkyvol]

we play man except #28, they cant get open. so what does banks do? goes cover 3. "here, have the seam route"

 

[unfrozencvmanvol]

In typical Tennessee fashion, they get the fans all excited and they get unbelievable support just to rip our damn hearts out again. unbelievable, it’s like we are cursed

We're not done yet.

 

[Carl Pickens]

Hasn't been some of his best work..

He’s getting too greedy…. Going deep on 3rd and 3…

 

[golf437]

This is real stupid.

 

[The Tall Gguy]

Adjustments at halftime will be key. Who will make them?

 

[CaliVol2009]

Vegas just robbed a bunch of people

I’m one of them.

 

[BreatheUT]

Just like the basketball game last night

After last night this is not the type of sports day I need.

 

[rcrrcr]

Continuing the trend of a great first quarter and a terrible second quarter. Hope we play better in the second half

 

[lostsheep]

Slack-ass coach just like Barnes last night. They being paid to be aware of this sheet and do something about it. The general gonna toss 6' of dirt off his grave and 'splain some shat to these slack-ass millionaire coaches who don't know they azz from a hole in the ground. AD White is gonna be put on notice soon. CJH wasn't his 1st choice FWIW.

You mad bro?

 

[Rylee_Vol18]

Why are you so angry. Brohm is a good coach

Look at your post history. That will explain my total dislike for you.

 

[molsen81]

I think a few times it was third and short and we went for a 45 yard pass for some reason. Your RB is averaging like 6 yards a carry. Just run it and get the first down.

Or got a penalty

 

[VolRage]

I feel like we should still win if Hooker can hit open receivers the rest of the game. I haven’t seen any indication they can cover our guys.

That’s a huge “if” at this point. At this point I’m thinking Joe Milton was wearing No. 5 the entire 2nd qtr.

 

[Zues1]

Analytics say you don’t do that in the first half

Alrighty..... maybe Josh needs to look at that analytics chart on 4th-3

 

[Other_Guy]

Hooker has to settle down. The defense needs to actually cover a guy in a black Jersey some time today. We may be able to win this game.

They're up against a really great QB with their best corner out + Turnage. They've actually done better than I expected in the red zone but awful against the run. Someone needs to wake up the DL and Hooker

 

[RavinDave]

So far the Purdue QB is making Hooker look like a JV player. It’s not close. He appears to be the superior QB.

Thanks Captain Obvious!

jk… but even Stevie Wonder could see that

 

[Bigorange123]

 

[zooguy]

Total feast or famine. That's what worries me about heupel. Bama and Georgia knows those 14 points in the early 1st Q don't last.

Yep, and when it’s famine, it sucks. You have to balance the time your offense and defense have on the field unless you are 4 and 5* on defense like ‘Bama who can sub 2nd and 3rd string who are still highly rated.

 

[FranklinVFL]

Purdue is taking the shorter passes away from us. Hooker is better with the shorties than he is with the bombs.

What QB in this universe is more accurate on 50+ yard passes than a 10 yard pass???

 

[508mikey]

I feel like we should still win if Hooker can hit open receivers the rest of the game. I haven’t seen any indication they can cover our guys.

If the O L could block better
