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

[HollowaytoSeivers]

What is wrong with ABC stats clowns and Fowler. They note on air "4 Tennessee turnovers" as if they were in Tennessee's favor. 3 of the turnovers were to our disadvantage.

And that's supposed to be ABC's "top" crew

Give me Sean McDonough and a fan from both teams, and the broadcast would be times better for everyone.

 

[Freak]

Like it or not we need to keep trying to establish the run. Not to mention we have three turnovers on pass plays. Not saying I agree, but I understand the hesitancy to throw from deep in our own territory.

The Joey keeper hasn't worked well tonight though. I'd be okay with not seeing it again.

 

[PC Jr.]

Terrible play calling. Why run east and west??? C’mon man.

 

[DEFENDTHISHOUSE]

Heupel has got to get better at playcalling after a TO, they waste so many opps

He wastes a lot of plays.

 

[rocketskates]

Surely if a layman like me can see that the flat is wide open and has been all night the head coach and offensive coordinator can see it, right?

 

[G0V0LS33]

Heupel has the sheet and he okayed that call. No way wit the way this oline is blocking do you call that against a high school team.

 

[AntiochVol81]

On a night where our running game is almost non-existent? Yes

Running that play yes

 

[patrick]

That was a terrible set of plays. Pass the durn ball !!!

imagine that.

but hey just run the ball while the receivers are running wide open

its not that complicated

 

[Powder and shot]

Cannot take advantage of if a turnover…AGAIN!!!!!

 

[Other_Guy]

Playing not to lose gets us beat every time

He doesnt trust JA right now. Do you? But yeah I'd have still thrown it.

 

[JMSqb11]

Ironically on that third down play the wide receiver screen probably would’ve worked.

Heupel is convinced he has to run for over 100 yards to be successful when we have carved them up with passing all game. Heupel refuses to go back to the well of success

 

[Hurley Mooncalf]

I wonder what the percentage we've scored off turnovers that thr defense didn't run in for a td. Has to be around 10% or less.

 

[barney]

how many times this year have we gotten a turnover followed by hyper conservative offensive playcalling that results in a 3 and out?

idk what the coaches think they are accomplishing with this approach to turnover opportunities, but we'd probably be a 1-loss or undefeated football team if they'd just run our base offense off of turnovers.

 

[TheVolunteer002]

We have almost 400 yards of offense, OU has yet to score an touchdown on offense, and we're up a point.

 

[TN1111]

They're getting the ball almost in their field goal kicker's range here.

 

[wesley21]

Needed points off that turnover. But this team can’t get it done. Shocker

Have we really run that play much all year?

 

[Gtown RNG]

This is BS, it’s almost like we’ve called it in.

 

[patrick]

Heupel has the sheet and he okayed that call. No way wit the way this oline is blocking do you call that against a high school team.

he did not"ok" the play call....

he called everyone of those damn plays

 

[floridavol25]

It seems like huepel gets scared to trust his quarterback in back to back years against OU

 

[BIG SEXY]

Screen play ?

B

 

[GoVols64]

Feel like the call needed to be RPO where TE blocks then gets upfield. Easy pitch and catch for 1st.

Also easy call from my couch.

 

[TN1111]

We have almost 400 yards of offense, OU has yet to score an touchdown on offense, and we're up a point.

Yep. Smdh

 

[JMSqb11]

You would never know by looking at Josh Heupel that he loves running so much.

 

[MeanOrange]

Heupel is always good for 1 of 2 retarded play calls

Your being nice. More like 5 or 10.
