The Official #17 Tennessee @ Kentucky Game Thread, 7:45 PM ET, SEC Network

[RDU VOL#14]

The 3rd down play call should’ve been the 2nd down play call.

 

[Carl Pickens]

I don't understand how that wasn't a late hit on Brazzell.

That’s because it was. Knocked him flat on his ass

 

[posivol]

Phantom holding call

drive killer

 

[JohnnyJava]

At least two or three drives per game are impacted or stopped by very dubious calls. Maybe williamson doesnt need to be the only ref let go.

 

[rocketskates]

Up the gut on 2nd and a mile certainly did not help

Agreed.

 

[DeepSpringsVol]

I don't understand how that wasn't a late hit on Brazzell.

Because he isn't Ryan Williams or Jeremiah Smith. Refs aren't protecting anyone else.

 

[VolsFan-TX]

Has Kentucky scored two tds in first half this year?

They scored four TDs in the first half against EMU. Other than that, no.

 

[therealitytheory]

DAMN. I've got a early tee time.

 

[C-south]

2nd and 17 from midfield with the draw play like clockwork to set up 3rd and 17

We should set up for a fg and run a fake. At least it would be something different albeit predictable.

 

[Mccage]

Yeah because the rest of our secondary was in good position after it got to the second level

Second level! Hell he was wide open down the side line.

 

[RAVOL]

I don't understand how that wasn't a late hit on Brazzell.

It was a cheap shot

 

[GoVols64]

And how are we getting burnt by the softest WR corp in the SEC? The crap we give up to bad fundamentals is astonishing.

 

[mackievol]

Jackson Ross looks older than 26…

He looks 50

 

[Frozevol]

Penalties are drive killers

Cube said it wasn’t a hold and it was pretty lame of a call. SEC!SEC!

 

[Cannot believe]

Up the gut on 2nd and a mile certainly did not help

Stupid

 

[tnvols72]

So we gonna give up a 90 yarder here?

anything is possible with Banks

 

[give_him 6]

I wish our media would ask harder questions to CJH in the post game presser

First question

Coach, in 2nd quarter you had 2nd and 17 and you chose to run a draw up the middle. What did you all see there?

And for a follow up, what on earth were you thinking?

 

[Freak]

Up the gut on 2nd and a mile certainly did not help

Ideally, catch them off guard for 8-9 yards and set up a more manageable third down. I'm in the minority, but that call is the least of my concerns.

 

[rocktopper16]

Definitely should have been a flag. Absolutely pathetic.

Should have watched the late hit on Joey after the long pass to Brazzell another on Bishop well after the play.

 

[TNVOLFN]

Boo looks to thick and tight in his hips. His speed is not top level.

That's what happens when you skip team workouts all summer - selfish.

 

[rocketskates]

These refs just suck. Again. Every week.

Well they single handily killed that drive which likely would’ve resulted in at least 3. So they’ve single handily taken points off the board for us. Cant let that spread get too wide.

 

[VolsFan-TX]

We block so good in games like Georgia and then play Kentucky and cannot get to 20 yards rushing in a half

But we can throw all day on these guys

 

[lilesrt]

This is just a frustrating team overall. We are up two scores and I’m pissed off

I don’t like this team. And Heupel’s demeanor is lackluster always so it compounds the negative perception.

 

[joevol33]

Heupel should know no lead is safe, play to win

 

[SubVet676]

Seen enough. Bedtime. Vols should win this one, easily. But I won't be surprised to see UK keep it close.

I guess we're the "Texas of the East". Except their defense is better.
