Auburn Game Thread

I'm amazed that our defense is holding up this well against their run. Not that they're great, but we haven't necessarily been tough against the run the last couple of years. It has to make you wonder if/when they're going to break a long one soon as a shot in the dark.

come on d...time for another turnover for a td

 

[perico]

It wasn't a draw call from them, but it was a terrible playcall that didn't have time to develop.

To be honest, I think they've tied Crompton's hands. I don't think he's going to be checking, and if the first option or so isn't open, then he's going to run it.

He's actually a lot faster than the last couple of qbs we've had, but that's not anything to brag about.

Our D is actually playing some decent ball right now.

It helps that their O is absolutely horrendous.

 

[Ohiovol09]

Defense is doing great, but we need an offensive spark. We need ONE good drive.

 

[AllVolYall]

I do not know what to say...Brandon Warren?

Brandon who? :whistling:

It helps immensely that Auburn's QB scenario is similar to ours.

play call was for the FG, but Crompton has to check out of it when 17 defenders approach the line.

has crompton even checked out once this season? i've never noticed

We don't even need a drive. We just need a couple of 1st downs or a big play to get in FG range.

 

[VOLinColorado]

I have listened to the whole game on the radio. And John Wilkerson is the only one with the Vol Network who has even mentioned how many mistakes Crompton is making. Kesling and the rest are making more excuses than Fulmer. The first step of any addiction is DENIAL!!!!!!!!!!!

Well, the CBS announcers have certainly pointed out Crompton's sh*tty performance

 

[armchairvol]

These teams are mirror images of each other--each solid (but not great) on defense, and each with a lame offense. Our offense SHOULD be a little better than auburn's--because I think we've got a little more talent/experience--but that is negated by the hallmark Vol bumbling, which of course is why the Vols are trailing in the game.

After what he pulled at SC a couple of years ago, I'm not sure he'll ever be allowed to audible.

If they do not trust him enough to check off when facing an all out blitz it is definitely time to change QBs.

 

[AllVolYall]

I say pull Crompton and go G-Gun the rest of the way.

 

[TheVol]

put EB in on offense. we need a spark in this close game

Agreed. If we are ever going to do it, now is the time.

 

[BigPapaVol]

go get him

 

[volinasheville]

Todd and Crompton as starting QBs in the SEC says the conference might be down a good bit this year.

 

[perico]

I don't think they are allowing Crompton to check out. They are telling him to take off if it's not there.
