'25 Recruiting Forum: Official TSIO Alabama vs Tennessee Pre-game/Game Thread

Since when can you catch the ball by pinning it to the ground between your arm and your shoulder pad??


Where’s the log off button?!? So I can’t come back and rage post p

When you wear a solid crimson colored helmet.

After 15, I’m not too optimistic lol.

Bama starts fast & stumbles to finish.

We weather the storm & answer. We’ll be in this one late.

 

[gainesvol82]

I’ll be the first to hate on refs but I never saw a clear image of it hitting the ground

There was a clear shot on the start of the roll where the nose hits the ground and pushes the ball upward between the arm and helmet. It was close but the evidence was there to overturn it. Actually expecting it to be overturned in this game is insanity, though.

 

[TheMookieMonster]

We might as well go for it on offense every time because at least we’ll prevent Alabama from just running 9 minutes off the clock every possession before they score.

 

[BigOrangeTrain]

Remember when a bunch of people thought Bama sucked when FSU smoked them?

 

[Govolsman98]

Many of you would be better off severing ties with UT sports fandom

 

[Smokey123]

Now they’re reviewing if he made the first down gotta make sure it looks like they’re not rigging it. Just to uphold everything

What do we do?

If our OL doesn’t improve dramatically it won’t matter either way.

 

[Jack Burton]

Can you keep a tally and post updates for us throughout the game?

Yes until I get bored or turn the game off due to our **** play.

They’re tied with Ohio State for the most talented roster in the country.

 

[SaguaroVols]

Looks and feels like Bama is up 28-0 already right now. Really need a TO or a stop here.

 

[gainesvol82]

Refs plan is to get Bama up big and then start calling a fair game.

They will call several penalties at times when there is little impact so that the disparity isn't as glaring. But any big momentum calls will go their way.

 

[zhangliao04]

We keep Bama from getting that very first 3rd down conversion and this game is different. Change my mind.

 

[UTK]

Obviously I get why you aren’t going for it on 4th and 15. But if it’s a couple yards or less, you have to with this defense. You just have to.

You don’t have last years defense anymore Josh.

[VolNRaleighNC]

We need to put Miller back in concussion protocol...

We need Simpson to rupture his Achilles

 

[OrangeMoundTNVol]

Why are you even watching the game with this loser mentality? Serious question.

To watch the ref show, duhh

 

[Smokey123]

Shocking

 

[jakez4ut]

After 15, I’m not too optimistic lol.

The 3rd and 13 conversion was foreshadowing, I'm afraid. We haven't stopped em. And we look inept on offense.

I knew this would be hard. We continue to make it harder on ourselves.

 

[zhangliao04]

No holding?

 

[VolNash17]

That blitz was a win there. Get there to prevent the completion

I don’t doubt you lol

 

[MoCo_Vol]

What do we do?

Last 2 games we scored same amount in both halves actually.
