Recruiting Forum Football Talk IX

That pick 6 was gut wrenching. Don’t understand the call.

Oh well, snap and clear,

The call was fine. He’s got to put it to the sideline and he didn’t.

Im not sure what’s hard to see here (the snark isn’t directed at you but it’s frustrating)

 

[MarcoVol]

No, winning is fun. The other stuff sucks.

Nobody likes losing but there are only 12 football saturdays every year. I’ll enjoy watching and being a fan

 

[DD4ME]

I really do like this team. Not elite given the injuries, but they play hard.

 

[OGbabyaviVol]

Quiting like our defense. Kidding. But true.

Nah just don’t want to do it anymore. Takes too much time to put together. Someone else can take it over. We need the mojo changed up anyways.

 

[mrMet]

Significant reversals on multiple fronts, today. Gonna take some late season heroics to keep ourselves in the hunt.

Just win and you’re in. No heroics needed

Box score folks will blame Banks and the D

But I say that Heup and the O are at fault tonight. Absolutely awful performance. Gave them 9 pts that was really a 12-16pt swing. Got no points off the turnover. Bad clock management and goal line/redzone play calls.

Execution was bad but I am way more disappointed in the O play calling and clock management tonight than anything.

Anyways. On to the next one I guess. Don’t let Bama beat you twice.

Go Vols.

 

[MoCo_Vol]

Hopefully we go off on Kentucky, a 20+ win would be big to get this team’s confidence right going into that OU game.

If we execute we’re undefeated right now. But too many self inflicted mistakes have cost us.

 

[DD4ME]

Perlotte is a good teammate

 

[DD4ME]

End with a TD vols

 

[Checker_the_Shire]

There's such a Lane Kiffin delusion that even fan bases who don't have coaching openings are demanding their school hire Lane Kiffin. He might get a fat raise before anyone even publicly offers him a job. Florida of course and I just saw an LSU fan call for Kiffin on their 247 board.

I mean in fairness, LSU should fire BK tomorrow and get a proven winner. BK is and always has been.

Going in a tight package and doing a play action with no timeouts? Nobody thought we were going to run. He had pressure in his face immediately.

Take one-two quick shots to the end zone and kick a FG if don’t convert.

5-0 to finish is going to take heroics. In fact, it would be heroic, in and of itself.

 

[DD4ME]

At this point just cover the spread.

Same. I swore at the beginning of this season that I was not going to be upset if we didn't have the greatest teams. This was suppose to be a mediocre year for us, according to "experts".

 

[DD4ME]

Spread cover would be fun.

 

[screenthis]

I didnt watch. Did we atleast get a moral victory?

 

[Jimmy Football]

An immoral defeat, I’m afraid.

Going in a tight package and doing a play action with no timeouts? Nobody thought we were going to run. Just because it wasn’t executed perfectly doesn’t mean it also can’t be a bad call.

Take two quick shots to the end zone and kick a FG if don’t convert.

Just because I say it was fine doesn’t mean I agree with it. A good throw and nobody even bats an eye. Thats why i say it’s fine. Unfortunately, it was t a good throw

Both sides deserve the blame. Offense was trash and defense was trash. No one tonight played a complete game, and that’s on the coaches not having them in the mindset necessary to win. I’ve been really disappointed in Heupel’s management this season.

When your offense isn’t bringing it your defense has to step up. The defense gave away a 99yd drive. The defense sucks.

9.5 they cant

Not really. The only remotely heroic thing would be winning in the swamp

 

[JCP201]

Some may call me a naysayer, but it’s important to note that this was our best chance to win until most likely 2027. I’m skeptical about next year. Brandon will be a true freshman and Merc is trash. Gotta get another Joey-type QB in the portal or just pray GMac steps up.

I think Mac looks good, but he needs to gain weight or will be broke in two.

 

[MoCo_Vol]

Hell, if we just stopped dropping so many catchable balls we might go 5-0

The offense also gave up a 99yd TD lol
