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

[Doberman]

I’m sorry, didn’t realize it was over. Genius

You also apparently didn’t realize it should already be over. Bootlicker

 

[jonnon111]

To be fair, both deep passes were open and a PI gets us in range. (And didn't get called)

 

[GoVolunteers]

He didn't even try to kick it through the upright.

Really?

 

[cobbwebb0710]

I hate OT

Me too. This one has the potential to go into several OT’s, with these 2 defenses.
GBO!!

 

[sunnyvol79]

Last game in overtime we played? I honestly can’t remember

 

[imavolfan]

The rules need to be changed. If your injured and play has to stop because of it. That player shouldn’t be able to return to the game until the next series. That would stop some of the flopping. It’s like a free timeout.

They would trot out a third stringer to take the flop

 

[ttocswob]

Get ready to get screwed by refs in overtime

Do they get a bonus?

 

[I Love Lamp]

And very good for us. They could have returned that.

Damn game gonna drive me to drinking.

I don’t think my liver is going to survive.

And only substitute for the injured player

I don’t think Heupel is calling plays with the intention of Hooker throwing for long tds.

My guess is Hooker has his reads but chose to throw deep because it was there.

He wanted the knockout right now IMO.

 

[OldandStillaVol]

Leaving TO on the field in that situation was horrible.

 

[vavolfan6]

Not sure how to feel. A badly undermanned depleted team just took us into OT

I'm sick of this narrative..Purdue is missing 3 players. We are missing players too. We've had to endure low amount of scholarship players.

 

[tlester3672]

Just go back and watch the whole season. CJH has been horrific with figuring out how to use timeouts and the end of half and game. This isn’t the first time I’ve posted about it. He needs a timeout guy, like the get back guy.

 

[Volaholic320]

Horrible play calling on that last drive! Two deep throws when we needed about 20-25 yards.

Yep, doesnt make sense

 

[Rylee_Vol18]

26 sec with 3 time outs you run 3 times.... Heupel has to do better

We've run all over them all game

 

[sona]

Heupel went full retard on that drive.

He better own it if we lose. No excuse for that crap.

 

[JohnWardForever]

Get ready to get screwed by refs in overtime

How in the suck do you not call that PI on them holding our Receiver? They damn sure called PI on Tenn plenty!!! SOB!

 

[VolunteerCeltic]

Heupel fubarred that last possession so bad, ghost of Butch Jones dictated that one

 

[cobbwebb0710]

Can’t say anything about the kick. His coach and quarterback didn’t help him any.

Yeah, you can’t put that on McGrath. He never should’ve been in that position.
GBO!!

 

[Bigorange123]

[Vol8188]

We were one overthrown pass and one missed hold from a much better chance of winning this game.

I get why they called the deep passes, but I think you have to take the short yardage plays and give your kicker a better shot than that

Press coverage with no help over the top. I don’t hate the call. I hate that the refs didn’t do their job

 

[MAD]

Can we just end it in a tie Ike the olden days

 

[Jauan't Some?]

If you didn’t notice we fake an injury pretty regularly on PATs after quick scoring drives to give our defense extra rest.

 

[sunnyvol79]

College football overtime sucks I much prefer the NFL overtime

 

[Orange931]

Not sure how to feel. A badly undermanned depleted team just took us into OT

Do you some of you forget that we’ve been depleted all season, almost 20 players short of a full roster.
