The Official #11 Tennessee @ #6 Alabama Game Thread, 7:30 PM ET, ABC

[zeppelin128]

We are moving the ball in the flats, but critical errors are again rearing their face.

Can't do that with Bama and zebra friends. 4 penalties already on us, zero for Bama. And they've been lined up offsides at least twice that I've noticed.

Umarov is getting blown up

Chechnya boy needs to train with his UFC crew

 

[jcvol87]

Definitely feels like Vols are in for a long night.. Feels like Bobby forgot to study for his exam.

 

[sonofUT62]

Maybe HC tells DC you better get it going

There’s no accountability on this coaching staff.

 

[Dergibvol]

Another piss poor showing on the road. Dumb penalties all the time

 

[Defaultuser]

Under lol

It will be at the end when it doesn't matter.

 

[UT97Vol]

Bama only averages 2 sacks a game. We don’t give up sacks and yet they already have 2 in the first quarter. Just seems unless we get lucky once a decade this is the kind of **** we have live with when it comes to these kind of games. I have absolutely not even an iota of a feeling of even being in this game come fourth qtr.

Maybe HC tells DC you better get it going

I am sure he will catch on

 

[first time caller]

Officials are damn near useless.

Tennessee is damn near useless right now.

 

[wmcovol]

This team doesn’t know how to even line up. Cmon guys

 

[PA Vol]

Bs homecooking call killed the drive

Two plays after Bama lines up over the ball

 

[JFreak]

I see the officials are making sure to get us for everything while the defensive tackle for bama was almost past the football on that 4th down.

Saw the same thing

 

[vavolfan6]

Only 7 more penalties to go then we can get our one penalty call on the opponent!

 

[Big Orange Captain]

about a million commercials they gonna run, i miss CBS

 

[OrangeTsar]

We just don’t look very well prepared at all.

We hardly ever do on the road

 

[patrick]

Oline and defense (with the exception of last season) has sucked under Heupel’s tenure.

Heupel doesn’t hire the best coaches available. He hires friends or comfortability. But for Garner his defense would be even worse.

 

[joevols89]

Chechnya boy needs to train with his UFC crew

Time to move Sanders into full time starter.

 

[hardyemt_p]

Alabama D line sucks and has 2 sacks. Vols love making bama and Florida players look like all world athletes

Exactly, they will be AA tonight. Probably a new Heisman candidate on bamas D

 

[BigOrangeFanatic]

This game is trending towards Butch, Pruitt and Dooley Bama games. Not gonna be competitive at all.

 

[RAVOL]

So Bama can line up in neutral zone but Stayley who was off Los gets flagged for not checking in. Seems fair. Yes OL is not off to a good start. In CHRIST Alone

 

[BruiserVol]

Joey looks slow tonight

His first real road game in a stadium with a pulse. We can’t forget that. Just because he’s a senior doesn’t mean a thing when he’s been playing in essentially high school stadiums.

 

[Zues1]

Joey looks slow tonight

He's about to get killed

 

[orange_glory]

14-0 incoming. Lol.

Plus they'll run most of the 1st half clock out

 

[Cartervol]

Just not a very disciplined team.

Never have been in 5 years.

 

[Flipdaddy]

Honestly this is not bothering me because I predicted it the way our defense has performed. I just want Tennessee to not get blown out.
