Bearcat fans blame officiating on potential loss: (merged)

Atleast our fans have enough class to wait until after a loss before they start whacking the excuse pinata.

A lot of people that cover the UC program believe Coach Kelly built successful teams for the short haul with little thought to program infrastructure over a longer period of time. Because his main goal was ND all along. He turned down some jobs along the way (believe he was at least considered by UT actually) because he was waiting for ND and when they finally came calling he was gone.

Coach Jones and the team struggled last season but the early returns have been overwhelmingly positive from nearly everyone. The casual fans here aren't happy about the 4-8 season but most of the fans that follow the program closely realize the handicaps that he was working with last season and the vision he has for the program. That vision is working with recruits as well as Coach Jones is helping UC recruit better than it did under Kelly (Bennie Coney and Dennis Norfleet being two of the higher profile recruits that have committed for 2012).

We passed on that guy, or you wouldn't have him. Plain and simple.
 
Does cincy have a legit dline and corners? if the answer to either of these is no they are going to have a long day. I think our D will step up a lot more than folks expect and the flavor of vanilla will be nonexistent in our game plan. We won't bring the whole kitchen sink but they won't be defending the same 5 running plays and they will see a lot more blitzes than were shown last week. If I recall we had a total of 2 or 3 running play out of 40 something that were not inside runs. Da'rick lines up mostly on the strong side the receivers didn't block too well last week but then again the runs were not coming their way. Both our backs have more than adequate speed. A few stretch plays and we will forget the woes of last week I promise.

The Dline is legit. The corners....well we will know after Saturday. Oline (specifically the center) and the corners are the big question marks coming into this year.
 
I will say if we put the ball on the ground like we did last week, we're gonna have big issues.
 
Perhaps they didn't see those uncalled late hits on Bray or they'd be less worried. Laughable, given our recent history, to say that UT will benefit from the ref's largesse.

I think it will be a hard fought game, but if we even come close to losing, we will have big problems with our SEC sked.

There was one where he dropped to the ground before getting hit. This was right infront of the ref.
 
I'm happy for y'alls rebound, but speaking politely, I hope we beat the brakes off you. You don't want to lose and neither do I, but I'm not one of the fans that will be a dick about it either way like you will find on this board. Good luck to you, hope for no injuries either way, good officiating, and one helluva game.

Everyones a dick on here, but yet you continue to post with us. Got you. Makes sense.

But, but, but they beat apsu big time!!! They have to be for real.


I know Cinci is better than Montana but really? We should easily win this game by 2 scores. That's not being arrogant either. We have a better football team and I see Bray having a field day with that secondary. Clearly our defense is going to be tested more than the opener but I really don't think this team is looking past anyone at this point.

Tenneseee - 38
Cinci - 10

I may be bias but, I thought the two INT pass interference calls were good calls. Am I wrong? Hell the second one, our receiver got knocked flat on his ass before the ball got there.

No they were correct but they missed a lot of late hits/roughing the passer and some stuff from where things got more emotional/sloppy at the end. But it was a relatively clean game for both sides, especially for an opener.
 
Yeah, I would be cocky after a stellar victory over an fcs team that deserves to be a division or 2 lower.

You say one thing on a given thread, and then you totally contradict it on another. You do this ad nauseam, and I don't know how even your own fellow Vol fans put up with you, DJ Dipsh*it. I have been mostly lurking on here, forced to read your mindless drivel for a month or two, and you really are an amazing piece of work. And you talk sh*it about guys like Alpha who owned you and got banned for it.

You are the number one reason that opposing fans wonder about UT fans--all by yourself big guy, you did that. Congrats.

I hope you have the balls to come to Missoula one day, but I'm sure that you don't.

DJ Dipsh*it, Mr Snappy Comeback will no doubt have a snappy comeback for me, but I'm sure I will either be banned by your thin-skinned board admin, or not give enough of a sh*it to check back for your patheticially predicatable response, toolboy.

More likely the latter.
 
wait .. you responded to him ragging on AP not montana .. People on here have said we faced a tougher opponent than Cincy did

Alpha? Is that you? Ladies and Gentlemen, the secret name has been discovered.
