Tennessee has had the opportunity to score 28 points in this game. While I don't expect to score all 28 on a good defense, at this point (start of the 4th) UT could reasonable expect to score at LEAST 12 points, which would make it a game. Instead they came away with 3.
There is no excuse for this. I'm very pro-Dooley and I understand the youth issue, but this is debatably the worst this team has looked all year. They are showing some fight but failure is the only thing firing on any cylinders for this team. It's physically sickening to watch a team that you KNOW can play better and put things together to come out and play like this. They may be tired or whatever the excuse is but at this point that's what it is, an excuse. Not expecting to beat a better team is one thing, but people should expect to team to show up and play the game.
I'm not blaming the coaches or players or anyone specific, I think everyone has had a hand in the failure tonight. I don't know how many chances we will have to win but I hope this Randolph fumble contributes to a win. I'll keep watching because I'm a glutton, but man this is rough.
Saw the interception, see above. What an awful performance overall. Too bad the defensive efforts or being wasted in spades.
