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

[FanDude]

Can we all band together and hate on the refs now? It might destract from the gameplay

I was just getting p.o.ed about the officials deciding this game by making our team play so badly. Doh!

 

[FranklinVFL]

I think JA may be concussed

I think Huepel may be concussed.

 

[ButchPlz]

Absolutely no reason to go for 2 there

Being down one score if you get it is not a reason?

 

[Vol737]

No need to there. I don’t get why this staff makes things this hard.

 

[Volsfannn]

Going for 2 was stupid.

A 2 point conversion would've made a 1 possession game. No harm in not making it , kick the extra point, it's still a 2 possession game

 

[amaralfan1]

Alabama is turning it over soon.

 

[PalmettoStateVol]

Why? Why chase points at this point in the game. You get momentum and then hand it right back to them.

 

[volpreacher]

I love joey but 7 ints in 6.5 games is wild lol

4 of those are tipped balls that the receivers let go through their hands. He’s doing great

 

[runthrutheT]

We just gave them 14 points. Take the extra point. I hate the analytics stuff. Coaching real time guys

 

[LieutenantNeyland]

Josh hates to win the big games.
Kick the extra point. Pressure is on them. Imagine what happens if we don’t hand them 7 before half.

 

[TheVolunteer002]

FG at the end of the half and we're up 17-16 right now if any of y'all are counting

 

[vol94fan]

Good TD, but dumb to go for 2. Kick it and be down by 9 and hope to score 10 to win. He already hoping to tie.

 

[hUTch2002]

To make it 8 points.

Too early to leave points on the field.

 

[Vol Farmer]

Just take the 1 point.

Always take the kick

 

[BP4Prez]

Not that early. The defense is containing Bama and getting off the field. Heupel made that call acting like we only have 2-3 possessions left. Idiotic.

you’re still down a TD and field goal, same as if you take XP

 

[Go47]

It could be raining boobs and I swear we’d walk outside, lookup, and get hit in the face with a d-ck

This made me laugh out loud for a really long time.

 

[orangerush]

Get a little mojo then give it right back in spades

 

[ButchPlz]

A 2 point conversion would've made a 1 possession game. No harm in not making it , kick the extra point, it's still a 2 possession game

I'm beginning to think we're surrounded by people that failed basic math.

 

[BigOrangeD]

All we need to do is keep repeating those past two series. The one on Defense and the one on Offense.

 

[GhostVol]

Because of crowd noise disrupting the rhythm.

If "crowd noise" is enough to keep you from going "5 seconds per snap" you're not doing it right

TN only runs well when they line up, snap, play.... line up, snap, play, repeatedly

 

[Other_Guy]

Absolutely no reason to go for 2 there

Im not for or against. The potential loss is you could win by 1 instead of going to OT. But the defense is playing better so maybe it was a panic play

 

[Jaxon_Vol2017]

He is a dumbass

How? It was a two point possession either way. We get it it's one possession. Smart play

 

[OrangeEtBlanc]

Well, we’re back in this game and still a lot of time left. Alabama hasn’t been great in the 2nd half this year, so hopefully we can take advantage.

 

[PalmettoStateVol]

Being down one score if you get it is not a reason?

At this point in the game...no

You win the day!! Now I'll have to clean up the rug.
