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

[orangemadam]

Because they’ve played no one. We’ve moved the ball at will and then imploded.

their defense did catch the int and ran the fumble in. Thats part of the defense.

 

[NATHAN05]

We can’t run on this defense.

I felt like they were catching and getting a lot of YAC (at least first few drives) early..........Matthews had a great run, as did Ethan on one and Star had 2 decent catch and runs. Felt like we were taking advantage of their aggressiveness..........then just stopped.

Just saying the World Series is on

As an SF Giants fan…..let’s go Toronto!

 

[EastTNVol6240]

Is there any way we could start making 2 game threads. One for sober people who have a higher maturity level than a preteen, and another for well.... whatever this thread is?

You’re in the right place.

 

[patrick]

Play calling is ****. Defense shows up for once and now this

EXACTLY

 

[Baseball25]

No way the defense can keep them out of the end zone the whole game. Can we straighten up on offense?? Terrible, embarrassing to watch.

 

[VFL9798]

Yeah they didn’t any “takeaways” that half. We had 3 “giveaways”

You got that right! We gave up a miss block ! Result.. scoop and score!

 

[wmcovol]

People can finally STFU about Nico after this. I don’t like him either but he did beat Oklahoma.

The defense beat OU

 

[Vols420]

That seat needs to start warming up. This is football malpractice.

 

[Frozevol]

Guess we know why they are the #1 defense in SEC.

Because they can sit in coverage and wait for a ball to be thrown their way?

 

[bpalmer28]

We are not making the playoffs.

we’ll see

 

[Ritzwatch]

Orange jersey ain’t gonna stop 2 gifted pics abd a scared coach.

I’d like to at least try.

GBO!

 

[Voltrapnbama]

Are you not watching the game? Our OLine is getting zero push,no holes and giving up pressure.

I am. And OU OFFENSE is doing nothing. Are you watching the game???

 

[C-south]

Joey is forcing plays.. let's do our thing Guys and move the ball

Someone tell him he can throw to the guy wide open 5 yards downfield.

 

[DirtyDawg]

Geez, you’re losing by six points and you’re at home! You’d think the sky was falling in an Armageddon sort of way with 90% of these comments. You guys got this, just don’t have 3 turnovers in the second half! TN is the better team!!!! Relax and enjoy the second half comeback!!! Seriously, it’s coming

 

[CAVPUT]

That half is probably what the real Joey looks like when he has some pressure and is playing against a good defense. Throw it up and hope. This isn’t going to end well men.

Well, there's a reason he was at juco and app st not to mention the stat history. Folks got caught up with a feel good story and frankly, so did I, but it wasn't reality.

 

[Frozevol]

People can finally STFU about Nico after this. I don’t like him either but he did beat Oklahoma.

At their place!

 

[OH-Vol]

This kinda reminds of a few of those Florida games when Butch Jones was around, we were the better team in every sense but literally seemed like we were afraid to win or just trying to give the games away

 

[orangemadam]

Because they’ve played no one. We’ve moved the ball at will and then imploded.

did they play Ole Miss, one of top teams in country?

 

[Legion of Doom]

Because they can sit in coverage and wait for a ball to be thrown their way?

Not having underneath throws in playbook for tonight is on Heupel.

 

[Voltrapnbama]

Run and interment was the answer in the first half and we went full retard

 

[OrangeEtBlanc]

Defense playing well, Offense keeps shooting itself in the foot. We’ve had 3 turnovers, one a scoop-and-score, and a missed field goal. And we’re still down by only 6.

 

[orangerush]

Because they can sit in coverage and wait for a ball to be thrown their way?

Run the ball effectively and we be better off but that’s not going to happen.

 

[Chickenfarmer]

Just run the ball hype. This game is on the play calling

No, JA has turned the ball over three times. Nothing about play calling can be blamed. Execution at QB is terrible tonight. Two throws right to the safety. You have to read the D and not just throw to a spot like he has done.

 

[DEFENDTHISHOUSE]

Joey is forcing plays.. let's do our thing Guys and move the ball

Feeling very uneasy about this second half.
