Clay Travis was right

[triad280]

by looking at all the threads started today and some of the replies,we are definitely one of the 10 dumbest fanbases in America... we should probably be higher than 10 honestly...

FAHR CBJ,FAHR,the OC,FAHR Hart.
bunch of f****** idiots...sure,we are all disappointed by todays loss,and downright furious right after the clock struck 0:00,but some of the responses are downright stupid... I knew better than to expect better,but 1 can hope...


flame away you f***** offensive geniuses,because we have 100's of them on here who can design plays all over the field with one of the worst OL's in the country,but it doesnt matter to them,they evidently dont need very good OL to make their plays work...

 

[CountVolcula]

You mad?

We didn't coach the game

 

[FalcoVol]

Feel better OP?

 

[chatavol]

We talk so much about other fan bases but most of our fans are embarrassing and probably worse honestly especially after a loss. If we won that game by 3 everyone would be talking about how great we are, now we should Fire everyone.

 

[dreVol]

Clay Travis picked the Vols to win. So....

 

[oregonvol]

It wasn't the fans' fault that we lost today. They've been paying good money for the same old bullsh*t for far too long now.

 

[gogators13]

He also told UT fans to bet their mortgage on this game with a UT win.....

I'm sure he got a trivia question wrong the last time he played Trivial Pursuit,that doesnt mean he cant spot stupidity or the very least irrational thoughts...

I thought we would win this game,we should've won this game,but until we fix the OL, or get better OL recruits,it won't get better...

 

[JohnMcA60]

Yeah our fan base is embarrissing with the whole working together to checker our stadium and sell it out then question our play calling when we lose to an awful florida team because we can't score TDs. Totally irrational and stupid fan base. Question everything because if not then you just follow the crowd

 

[Band-AidVol]

So we are attacking the fan base for being unhappy with the play calling? Are you serious? So I assume you are happy with running the read "option" where the quarterback never keeps it. Maybe we should be happy with the 4 times we had it in the redzone that resulted in 3 field goals and an interception. Lets not forget we replaced the D line too and they seem to be doing great. You are right though the fans have no right to 2nd guess anybody we have just been here long before they got here and will be here long after paying out the a** for tickets. If you are happy with the play calls you are a moron. I love Butch and am not calling for anybodys head just a lil change in offensive philosophy.

wow,your argument against mine is the color coordination of a shirt... while it was an awesome display,the fans get behind the team better than we have in a while since CBJ has been onboard, it still doesnt excuse the thinking behind some of these posts. and the whole "F U UF" was embarrassing as well...

but we just need to call better plays... or FAHR someone

enlighten us... what plays or formations are you going to run behind this OL to improve the offense? a change in offensive philosophy?to what? the triple option? the run and shoot? how about the pass spread?pro style... we still won't be able to pass pro or run block...but tell us,I want to know. I'm sure the UT coaches would like to know as well... 95% of everyone complaining just want to change it,because... you have to know the root cause before you can fix it,and most of ours stem from inexperience and lack of grown man strength that comes from being in a S&C program for a few years,much less a few months... its about the Jimmy's and Joe's most of the time,not the X's and O's...

if its Mahoney's coaching thats the cause, I have no problem with criticism, but an OC cant call a normal game with the deficiencies at OL we currently have...that limits the playbook so severely... but lets just call for the OC's head like so many on here are... that makes sense...:crazy:

Careful, triad...your sensible logic might cause a firestorm. :whistling:

Go cheer for Michigan Count. You'd fit in well.

They obviously made the right call replacing Rich Rod with Hoke

The crickets after this are telling. Well stated.

At least we are top 10 in something.

It certainly isn' gonna be in the rankings or offensive stats for the foreseeable future.

 

[possumtownVol]

I'm all in on CBJ but if Worley is not going to keep the ball occasionally this running game is not going to be effective. The zone read just doesn't work if qb is not threat to keep ball. I saw times when it was open if he had kept ball. He doesn't need to rush for a hundred yards just open up defense a little

 

[agent|orange]

OP:

Our fanbase is stupid,we won't get better until we fix the OL,it's on the fans,not the coaches,to fix the OL.Summary:Great coaches,stupid fans,fans lost against a horrible UF team and true freshman QB,the coaches did nothing wrong.

Dissenting voices:

So it's not the coaches that are ultimately responsible for the performance of the OL?

OP:

It's the fans,they are responsible.We're just dumb cause Clay Travis said so,what's so difficult to understand about that.

fade route:

something about irony

 

[GoBigOrange86]

I'm more concerned with the fans who were talking about what a blowout this game would be, asking if we're going to rush the field, etc. etc. than those blowing up at the coaches when taking account of our "top 10 dumbest fanbase" ranking.

We let an awful, dreadful team come into Neyland and beat us in spite of doing everything they could to gift wrap the game. People are angry for very, very good reason. It looked like a Dooley-led team out there.

Yep.

We were completely stone-walled in the 2nd Half. When Worley fumbled (couldn't/didn't read the blitz) I pretty much turned to my wife and said the game is over.

They put in a true freshman and put up 10 points. We answered with none.

Why is Florida, with their horrible offense, able to put in a true freshman and have him not make stupid decisions on the road but yet our 4*/5* true freshmen make all kinds of stupid mistakes?

Coaching.

It's a tough pill to swallow for some but after a full year and 5 games, I think people are either starting to realize or are in denial about the rationality and feasibility of our offense.

We run 3 yard drag routes on 3rd and 4. That's just sheer stupidity.

We run the no-read option/read no-option. It's basically just tacking on a second to an already slow developing run with no lead blocker. There were definitely points where the QB could have kept it. Still no keeping.

In the end, the Gators entire team and our defense did everything they needed to do. Served up repeated possessions for our Offense in or just outside of the RZ.

Nothing. Team was flaccid and unprepared on Offense. Stupid penalties. Stupid playcalls.

We lost a very winnable game that the coaches and fans obviously laid out all the chips for. We looked like crap in front of, what, 200 unofficial visitors? Looks like the coaches realized the importance of the game.

And many fans do also. This loss is not good. We'll just continue not improving and the deniers will just keep making excuses.

stupid post...I said nothing about the fans fixing the OL,just that some of the "FANS" have no clue what is wrong,but don't let that stop you...just that VN seems to have an uncanny number of OC's who seem to know how to run the offense,better than any college coach,behind a bad OL... yet I ask 1 question about what UT is supposed to run,and its been crickets...not 1 answer... just #FireBajakian and 30 other threads just like it...

I realize they get paid a lot of money to fix this,but the ignorance is astounding... we knew it was going to be bad this year,we were replacing all 5 starters with a bunch of 1st yr players,yet we act like this was the OL from the previous 3 years...the game is won in the trenches,always has been,always will be... Dooley didnt recruit a single OL his last year,not one. Yet we expect a miracle to happen and have a bunch of all-SEC OL...I agree its been abysmal on the OL... but if you don't have the horses, just yell #FIREBAJAKIAN

About that... We had one of the best in the country last year. The offense still sucked. 3 from last year will be playing today...

I'm so tired of hearing after every game how we think we have some plays we've held back. Open your eyes! This is what we are. And it's ugly as hell.
