Heupel sucks!...Fahr Heupel and get a real play caller that teaches REAL football in here stat...amirite?

Or not...Hendon hits those three passes and it is a different game, and instead of us sitting here (I did it to earlier blowing off steam) saying he got "outcoached" we are calling him a genius for scheming those wide open passes against a great defense.

It is incredible the difference on perception on this game would be if HH just hits those three passes. I had to have it pointed out to me too, and I agree.

Yeah, but he spent a lot of money so nothing else matters. You spend a lot of money, you have a right to get what you want.

I really believe this is why Chip Kelly went for 2 in overtime. He didn't trust the refs/review crew to call it fair in the 2nd overtime and didn't give Birmingham a chance to steal the game. I'm not a CK fan but he did the right thing in OT.

Is there a reason you call Brian Kelly by the UCLA coach's name?

 

[Jimmy Football]

Um wow. The Twitter account said we were up 9-1 in the 8th…

18 inning game.

 

[Weezer]

Kirby would have scored sixty if he could. He didn’t hold back. He played smart since it poured almost the entire second half and didn’t want to risk a pick six or give us dumb points. He wanted us to earn them. Big reason we couldn’t throw and tried to run too. I was there. It was a down pour.

Their offense took their foot of the gas. It hurts to say that, but it's true.

LOL

Yes

I like saying Chip more than Brian. Like "you're a real Chiphead @Weezer".

Believe what you want, but Kirby slowed down because we couldn't move the ball.

 

[Lloyd_Christmas]

I dont think so. UGA won that game because of how well they do in December. What Heup has done is amazing but we just dont have the complete roster to be true contenders. 2 more years and we will be there.

If it's OK with you, I'd like to see us in the playoffs and see if we can contend NOW instead of assuming we have no chance and looking for a consolation prize.

 

[drvenner]

Is that the rule you're proposing? How would that fix it? And he didn't run out on his own, he was being tackled.

I don't know. It just seems like a silly rule.

 

[drvenner]

Yes, it’s right on I-40.

I think it was the Cubs' AA affiliate before they moved to Sevier County.

Kirby did what he thought would give his team the best chance to win.......limit our possessions by effectively running the ball and avoiding plays with higher risk/reward. Nothing more or less.

BaseVols beat Memphis 22-3 in their exhibition today in Jackson. Only counted 18 total Memphis fans in the crowd shot. Sea of orange.

No respect for the game

 

[Smyrna ATL Vol]

Texas favored by 7 over TCU right now. Let’s go Longhorns on Saturday! Gonna be a long week. Get yourself together Volnation, we still have a great shot at the playoffs.

 

[engineerVOL]

Big Jeff Simmons v. Trey Smith tonight if gonna be epic.

 

[VolGee4]

Originally, the Memphis Chicks were moved to Jackson when the Redbirds came to Memphis around 1997.

I just dont want to see this team get embarrassed. I'd rather the last game be a good memory.

I’m right behind Tennessee's dugout!

Let go of the BVS. You should always want the Vols to have a shot at winning a National Championship, even if the odds of winning the game are stacked against them.

 

[UTProf]

No, it wasn’t a “blowout” but averaging 3.8 yards per play on offense isn’t ideal either in that game. Neither is allowing 6.4… Kirby mailed it in the second half for some reason. You’d think he’d really try to bury Tennessee but I assume some of that had to do with the rain as well. Idk. I’m over the game. It was exhausting on so many levels. Time to crush Missouri. SCAR and Vanderbilt.. to end up 11-1

That's where us failing on offense as well as UGA's defense being great is papering over UGA's issues on O. UGA couldn't get much going in the 1st half either. Kirby didn't mail anything in. UGA just isn't that good on offense against legit competition (they have games where they are and they have games where they are ridiculously efficient but they have had several this season where their offense was just like yesterday). They are talented but inconsistent on O and have been all year.

 

[#Vol4Life1991]

Id be fine with this. Go 12-1 and finish the season with a Sugar Bowl blowout win. Get some momentum for the next recruiting cycle. Honestly id rather blast someone in the Sugar bowl then go to the playoffs and get our heads beat in. We just dont have the talent yet.

This is the epitome of a loser mentality. Give me the CFP all day long.

 

[smokeyhuntsgators]

CFP or bust!!

 

[MadWorld]

Win out and we’re #3 in the playoffs. No way the committee allows a rematch in the semis.


And I like our chances at a rematch in the finals.

Agree. Matchup with OSU or Michigan. Rematch in the ship.

It's been such a fun season. Why not end it on a high note?

 

[Skizer41]

I think you’re going to be sorely disappointed to learn that if Oregon runs the table and is a 1-loss conference champ and we’re 1-loss non-division winner then Oregon is in. Even if they aren’t the better team.

I don't necessarily disagree with this but here's my question. What's the difference between Clemson and Oregon then? Why would a one loss Oregon get in and a one loss Clemson wouldn't? I kind of figured if we win out we are in and Oregon and TCU fight for the final spot.

I hate Clemson. I'm just legitimately asking.
