He’s playing like

 

[BlackCreekVol]

They don't have 100 yards of offense and lead 16-10. SMDH

 

[BigOrangeTrain]

Ok, I feel pretty good saying this game is over. Aguilar has decided to be terrible tonight.

Yeah that’s clearly what happened. Joey was sitting in the locker room and he said to himself, hey I think I am just gonna play terrible and lose the game for us. I mean OUs defense has nothing to do with it right?

Sorry, not a huge fan of Joey. I know that won’t be a popular take in here.

This D with Joey’s carelessness = 8-4.

Season. Over.

Not sure we get to 8 like this.

 

[Smokey123]

Why are some of you surprised by this? Don’t you know OUs defense is really, really good?

Oklahomas defense has not been good lolol

 

[Checker_the_Shire]

He played 100x worse vs bama

Ha. Okay man. You’re the one who’s nuts. Enjoy the evening!

 

[volinbama256]

We can still come back. OL needs to start beating their DL. Joey has to make better reads and decisions. Defense has not played horrible. We can do this.

 

[KB5252]

We've outplayed them in every conceivable metric saved bone head plays. Clean that up and we mop these dudes.

If we don't, we've turned the biggest recruiting weekend this year into a toxic **** show.

I don't care how, just get it done

 

[NMVol]

Hey, Mississippi St. came back!

 

[JCP201]

Shooting ourselves.

 

[VolNRaleighNC]

Yeah that’s clearly what happened. Joey was sitting in the locker room and he said to himself, hey I think I am just gonna play terrible and lose the game for us. I mean OUs defense has nothing to do with it right?

Not other than them deciding to be under the ball when Joey throws it to them.

 

[Jack Burton]

Geez, 3 turnovers in the 1st half. Very difficult to overcome.

 

[Devo182]

This is worse than getting blown out bc its right there for you

Being down by 6...with 30 mins left and a 45% chance to win is better than getting blown out and having zero chance to win?

What sort of soft hell is this?

 

[Vols2DaWall]

They have 99 yards. If someone had told me they would have 99 yards in a half, I would say we were winning by three touchdowns. This team and staff need a gut check at half and go dominate. This is for the playoffs and season. Dark mod and packed house. No excuses, go win Vols

Team has a bad funk about them. Our coaches allow undisciplined ball all year long. We reek of poorly coached team

 

[BigOrangeTrain]

They’ve had 6 TOs leading into tonight. And tonight they have 3–so literally half of what they had all year. Meanwhile, we’ve dropped 260 yards in them. It’s definitely surprising by how mind boggling Joey is playing tonight in terms of decision making.

I am not surprised at all. I knew Joey was gonna struggle against this defense. This ain’t last years OU defense.

 

[SaguaroVols]

Is it too late to change back into our usual classic whites?

 

[DD4ME]

If we are all being totally honest this is not a playoff winning team. It's a great offensive team and yes we could beat a playoff team, but this team in it's current form is not genuinely of that caliber.

 

[TN-POSSUM]

Wow, very disappointing and pathetic play by the vols and staff... no way in hell we are winning this game... said L's here, the swamp, and then the heartbreaker at home to end the season... this team and coaching staff can't get out of their own way...

Anyone not seeing the red flags at year 5 on the discipline of this team by the staff and the staff's performance overall......

Score should be 21-3 at the half... BUT. No.

Let's just really hope we don't completely roll over in the second half when they flex to a comfortable double digit lead...

 

[KB5252]

These clowns have earned nothing on offense. Get this game won!

 

[fearsvols]

Oline is getting worked which has sped Joey up. Man we really shot ourself in the foot that half

 

[gainesvol82]

The problem is the lack of productivity in the run game. We are staying in 2nd and 3rd and long. We hit some but we prefer to throw deep when the defense isn't sitting back waiting on it.

 

[RiseToTheTop]

They just cant run block then OU plays that soft shell and lets joey **** up trying to hit home runs.

 

[jakez4ut]

Defense finally plays well.

We're running up and down the field, just killing them.

And we're losing.

I swear. So frustrating.

 

[Orangeburst]

we need this game with all these croots..nobody wants to play in slop.
