The Official #14 Tennessee vs. #18 Oklahoma Game Thread, 7:30 PM ET, ABC

[LordVOLdemort]

You must be following just by looking at the score and not watching. TN should have 20+ easy. Completely dominated this game and yet tied and OU gets the ball after half

Which is exactly why I think we still have a chance. How does that not make sense?

 

[heath.hinkle]

It's bananas that we aren't up 17 right now.

We are inn our own way

 

[CAVPUT]

Heupel hasn’t missed FGs, missed blocks and thrown into double coverage.

Hogwash. The coaches own this. You can't absolve this staff of the product they put on the field. It's Heupel's roster. It's his staff. The buck stops with him.

 

[Illinoisvolfan2]

This feels like one of those “Vols fart around and lose” games

 

[joevols89]

You say as we literally stuff a run.

The defense is the good unit tonight.

Run d is solid right now. We should be getting to Mateer more though. Their pass protection is suspect.

 

[GhostVol]

Heupel hasn’t missed FGs, missed blocks and thrown into double coverage.

He also didn't recruit the players that missed FGs, and missed blocks, and threw into double coverage

Unless he did

 

[alavolfan]

They are running 2 high safeties on us and we can't run.
It's leaving the middle open for passing but we cannot run the ball at all.
Need an adjustment at half

He’s hit a few over the middle like that.

 

[Go47]

We had our shot to put them away early while the defense is playing decent but offense cost us

I have been very vocal about how bad our defense is. They have played great. GREAT. The offense has been mistake prone and the play calling has been suspect at critical times. Overall, the offense has been BAD. Bad turnovers and a bad kicker.

 

[volpreacher]

Josh will have a hot seat if he loses this game because we aren’t beating Florida or Vanderbilt. I do not like this team. They’re just meh..

Tennessee will beat Vanderbilt by double digits. You’ve lost your mind

 

[Dergibvol]

You can only leave so many points on the field without it costing you.
And have we gotten ANY real pressure on the QB tonight?

Once and telander just ran right by mateer

 

[djones24]

OU going into half with lead and ball after half. We gone beat double digits

 

[YankeeVol]

No way this team wins at the Swamp.

I've retired from the military since the last time we did....

 

[Sarms58]

We need to keep them out of the end zone…they are right at their kickers range but maybe we can get a takeaway or a sack…

 

[VOLINVONORE]

Shouldn’t have thrown that into double coverage

Did our receivers run a wrong route and draw two defenders to the same spot?

 

[tnvols72]

Why do players always hit their concussed teammate in the helmet?

I noticed that lol

 

[Govols23!]

Defense has actually played better than I expected. But I have zero confidence in our kicker. How much longer before we give Josh T a change. Maxi folds under pressure.

 

[n_huffhines]

This is more stubbornness with vanilla playcalling

Dudes have been open all game. We've been moving the ball like crazy. What are you talking about?

 

[posivol]

come on d bail us out

 

[chad954ut]

heupel is the fn head coach. The fn play caller. It’s on him.

Can't criticize the head coach on here. These folks defended Dooley, Jones and Pruitt

 

[AlsaceFreak]

That FG is going to hurt. Our D had been playing their best game. You take the penalty there.
Like the announcer said he had already made two this season from that distance

 

[C-south]

We are inn our own way

All season. We are winning some games in spite of ourselves.

 

[CAVPUT]

This is more stubbornness with vanilla playcalling

Turtle up. Yep.

 

[Flipdaddy]

It's bananas that we aren't up 17 right now.

It’s TTBS. It’s exactly about what I would expect. We don’t dominate anybody other than UAB

Typical Tennessee BS

 

[90 Vol]

If OU scores a touchdown here, we’re in deep $hit.

 

[GAVol]

Did our receivers run a wrong route and draw two defenders to the same spot?

Nope.., Simply didn’t see the Safety over the top.
