Learned nothing from last years blown games. The last offensive drive when we could have killed the clock looked just like last years. Love what they have done in many ways but show up with a team ready to play 4 qtrs and learn from past mistakes.

Yep, that conservative bs late in games is gonna cost Jones more losses than wins.

Yeah we won buy a miracle pass that happens like 1-100? Just saying with 2 min left and GA with TO he once again is scared to put the game away

I agree 100%, very conservative play calling at this juncture of the game.I had rather take my chances with the offensive team, than give the other team a chance to beat you. I am going to watch the game again, but right now I don't remember a down field pass attempted in the first quarter. Not until we were two scores down did we even attempt a downfield pass,, but I will check again I could be wrong.

Yeah I forgot we escaped by a lucky hail mary pass because someone was scared to play to win...somebody else needs to wake up

Dude, really? We are finding ways to win unlike the last so many years when we found ways to lose...enjoy the ride and scenery. Oh, btw, Go Vols!!! I believe '

I've been critical of this coaching staff for the past 2 years but they are starting to improve. We don't commit many penalties and we are starting to open the playbook. Saw more downfield passing than in previous games. We don't sub the WR's out every other play. There's room for improvement but Butch is making strides. Wish we could just go under center and play to Hurd strength and I'd be really happy.

What's funny is if Dobbs thrown a pick or an incompletion you all are *****ing about how we have a great running game what are we throwing make them use their TO's blah blah blah

How about this:

Jacob Eason made a great ****ing play. Just like Jauan Jennings did. Sometimes that **** happens.

In no situation, before or in hindsight is that the correct call. You've lost your damn mind.

You make the other team burn their TOs and drive 80 yds for a score with less than a minute to go.
There's nothing wrong with this line of thinking

I agree with the concept, however you essentially are downing the ball when Georgia has 3 time out left and too much time left on the clock. That's poor clock management, this isn't the first time we have been in his position. Amazing play at the end of the game.

No I've learned you put the game away with over 2 mins left and the team has 3 timeouts...if it wasn't for the 1-100 pass you would be singing a different tune
