The Official #15 Tennessee vs. Miss St Game Thread, 4:15 ET, SECN

Is there an F’ing reason why Heupel won’t throw a quick out for 5 yards to setup a last second field goal when the defense is giving a 49 yard cushion?

Clock management via H.G Wells.

 

[AustinVol]

our team deserved. Chance to go win the game right there. What a horrible use of the clock

 

[All Vol!]

We let probably 45 seconds of dead time run off the clock while sitting on 3 timeouts.

 

[Caz]

This one will be talked about win or lose. No explanation for this clock debacle. Who remembers Pat “Tye” Dye?

 

[hUTch2002]

lol. You don’t understand buddy. That’s like me saying if they only gave up 17 then they wouldn’t have had to score 14. See how you can twist a narrative? I thank them for the 14. But they still haven’t played good.

Ok, but I said the game would be over without them. That’s true.

 

[The Original Fade]

Heupel: nice guy with an innovative offense and is a pretty good recruiter. Fails at everything else

 

[Go47]

He's a good coach.....but proves time after time why he'll never be a great coach.

 

[Vol1976]

S---, s---, s---! Not again!

 

[KoachKrab127]

Every week, college football coaches do dreadful clock management. You have two timeouts left. You get a first down with 13 seconds left, and don’t call a timeout? Unbelievable.

I said to my wife: “Get the first down, call timeout.” They got the first down, and tried to be cute. Just so frustrating.

 

[OrangeWave2]

Yeah lets risk OT again with a shaky kicker.

 

[tn4elvis]

Coach Heupel didn’t learn anything from the Georgia game.

Playing not to loose again

 

[Frozevol]

Heupel needs an assistant that specializes in clock management. I’ll bet he’s always late for his own meetings..

 

[Arrested Devolopment]

OT win redemption arc incoming

 

[DooleyOrangePants]

I appreciate what Heupel has done for this program, let me get that out of the way first.

But his playing scared, not being prepared in big or road games, and terrible clock management are his Achilles heel and is costing us games.

 

[UTwild82]

That is some of the worst clock mgmt Ive ever seen. Two time outs wasted and not used.

Unreal. Un f****** real.

 

[vavolfan6]

Call a timeout and set up and actual good play and talk it over instead of not even using them

Should have called a timeout and communicated the situation to everyone. But yes, Joey should have dumped off..

 

[Cartervol]

Given how this game has gone, I'd say we have a 10% chance.

I'D give it 5%..

 

[amaralfan1]

Someone who can drop kick would've been nice to have in this situation.

 

[Defaultuser]

He doesn't learn from his mistakes. That is a bad coaching trait to have.

 

[Larkin]

Welp. 2nd OT game

Maybe we pull this one out. Don’t deserve it with how poorly we’ve played

 

[90 Vol]

No one is playing the receivers within 20 yards. Throw the ball and dive at the 35!

I was literally screaming the same thing at my TV. I’m surprised you didn’t hear me.

 

[GhostVol]

Heupel is 0-2 in OT games

Odds on 'boutta be 0-3?

 

[ButchPlz]

That ending just looked like Heupel has cash on the game.

 

[A-RodWiLks]

My non-Vol friends texting me about how dumb Heupel is smh
