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

[GOVOLS 1]

Wait, I didn’t know Purdue‘s defense was undermanned

 

[Frozevol]

That was like the Pitt game all over again. Terrible spot on 3rd down and terrible play on 4th.

I said that earlier.

 

[Volintheswamp]

ACC refs must not have very good eye coverage in their insurance plans. The line judges are having ball spotting issues.

 

[Nationdom]

especially when Missouri and Kentucky are out recruiting you

 

[peerless98]

They won’t be if they win the game

They won't be if they lose the game.

 

[VOLnVANDYland]

Spots are not friendly for us at all.

ALL FRIKIN YEAR

 

[VFL28]

Alright defense, you’re up.

 

[vavolfan6]

Any Purdue lurkers here…..your program is trash. You resort to this garbage to try to stay in a game, you are trash.

Calling Purdue a trash program is a compliment, because you acknowledge they have a program. To me they are irrelevant. They are like Vandy. Who cares that they exist or have a football program? They are completely irrelevant.

 

[hUTch2002]

Sometimes you need to line up under center and fall forward for a first down.

Had the ball been spotted properly a QB sneak is an easy first down. We were about 6 inches short, not an entire yard.

 

[Jravol78]

When have they ever?

1998

 

[wmcovol]

Our O line looks more gassed than their D

They’re not real good.

 

[orangerush]

Why call a QB sneak with hooker 2 yards behind the center, and fake a handoff?

IDK, just like the Pittsburgh game.

 

[RDU VOL#14]

I’d like to see us install some new 3rd/4th and short yardage packages this spring .

 

[johngunn44]

I hate the shotgun formation in that situation. get under the center!!!

 

[Shocker0]

The spot was a yard short of where he landed. Pittsburgh game all over.

 

[patrick]

Should have throw a 5 yd pass in the flat.

 

[cobbwebb0710]

If we lose, you can point to that play as the difference

You have to take the points there. Go up 4, Purdue can’t settle for a FG and if they do score then a FG keeps you in it.
GBO!!

 

[Rylee_Vol18]

Will be CJH’s worst loss as our coach if he can’t figure things out fast

No it's not. Purdue isn't bad

 

[Vol8188]

Why call a QB sneak with hooker 2 yards behind the center, and fake a handoff?

It’s not a QB sneak

This. Shotgun there kills me

 

[Rickyvol77]

Refs are awful

 

[GetEmVols]

Wait, I didn’t know Purdue‘s defense was undermanned

First I’ve heard of it

 

[OldandStillaVol]

Sometimes you need to take the points.

 

[Bloodrunsorange27]

Bad spot on 3rd down. No blocking on 4th down.

 

[casetopia]

These fake injuries are easy to spot. If it happens after a play with zero contact it should be a 15 yard penalty and automatic 1st down.
