It seriously might go down as one of the best punt returns in history, and of course, it was at our expense.

It's not like this was a Desmond Howard return where he simply blew past everyone. We had 7 chances to tackle him and whiffed on all of them. Pathetic. I hope someone on the coaching staff forces the team to watch this a few times to let it sink in.

...why does it seem like on every SEC team's highlight reel, we are the opposing defense for half the plays???

In about 20 years of watching UT football, that was seriously the most pathetic display I've ever seen. Talk about a complete lack of effort and just going through the motions. I think just about everybody on the field got their hands on him, they just didn't bring him down. Unbelievable.

I thought there were 11 Jonathan Hefneys on our punt coverage while watching that mess go down.

Don't feel too bad... although he should have been tackled, Adams is a fast elusive guy... that was his 3rd punt return for a TD this year. He also lined up in the backfield against Auburn, took a pitch, and ran it for a 90 yard TD run.

 

[PowerT83]

Adams would of been down by the first guy down there if #41 Sapp isn't blocked in the back

 

[VolFromNashville]

It was inevitable that it would show up sooner or later...I refuse to watch it. Such bad tackling.

 

[YankeeVol]

I still can't believe it

 

[Dougie_D]

The worst part about this is that there are about 10 different youtube videos showing the play.

Yeah, TN football just went viral. Where's my puke bucket?

 

[rickyyrs]

They need to make the punt team to watch this all week.

 

[Aesius]

I made a prediction thread before the season that a UT play would go viral on the internet this year. Except I said it would be a Justin Hunter TD catch.

Of course, Hunter gets injured in his 9th quarter of play and the viral play ends up being an utter humiliation of our entire defense.

Typical.

You could tell they let up because they thought they had him.
So much putting on steam.

two blocks in the back too

You haven't heard the news?

You haven't heard the news?

I know he hasn't. That's why I asked. Nice try though

 

[s1216]

two blocks in the back too

Two by the same guy no less. Was just down there shoving people in the back.

 

[pualsline]

last week we had the feel good story of the kicker and now this

Any publicity is good publicity.

Sarcasm of course

 

[Domestic Silence]

I hate it because I will definitely give Dooley credit for this, our kick/punt coverage has gotten much better under his watch.

Just another example of why we're going the wrong direction

Yeah. And Adams is also down if the second man makes the tackle, the third man makes the tackle, the fourth man makes the tackle, the fifth, sixth, exc. It was beyond ridiculous. THat play could really screw up a team for not only the game, but a season.
