Croom claims Lee's injury was a factor in loss to Vols

Croom trying to rain on our parade.We can't even enjoy beating a crappy team fairly equal to us without someone saying the what if's.So,who thinks MSU would have won the game if Lee didn't get hurt?

oh boo hoo, where's a wambulence for MSU when you need one

I don't buy it. He was running around pretty darn well in the 2nd half for a guy whose throws were supposedly affected by injury.

 

[orange+white=heaven]

Was it a factor?.. In fairness, yes. But not a determining factor..

I was thinking the same thing,I don't remember seeing him bothered by it at all.

Fair assessment.

he did to looked bothered, when Eric Berry took it to the house on him.

Without the injury he probably does not have to start chucking it all over the field, thereby wiping out the two pick-6s. Vols probably still win by 3 to 10 points though.

The fact that a Sophomore and a Freshman started on the same side of their O-line was more of an excuse than this. Weak Croom, really weak.

 

[TreeGreen]

Croom feels the fire just like Fulmer does, and excuses will always be made in that situation.

He's doing what any coach on the hot seat is going to do, Make excuses...Ours does it all the time! :good!:

 

[eloist]

injuries are a part of the game.
if you can't adjust, you lose.

Sorry Sly.

 

[Heebs]

Meanwhile the Vols lost their best receiver and offensive lineman in the first half.

But no, Lee's injury definitely impacted the game more than those others.

Please

Sylvester, Sylvester, Sylvester.................what did your Mom tell you about making excuses?

The unwritten rule is, 'Don't say anything that would steal from the mighty Vols."

 

[bigtime]

Its ok MTSU will shut them up this weekend

 

[volmanic]

Sucks that he is making excuses for the loss, but he could possibly be right. I think we still would have won, but I doubt it would have been a blow out.

 

[Oldblood]

It's hard to be upset at him when our coach does the same thing. I think the main determining factor was home field. Not sure if we beat them at Starkville.

Croom better start winning soon and quit making excuses, or he'll be out of there quick.

I call BS on Croom. There's no way it makes 31 points difference. The kid did continue to play, so he must not have been hurt too badly.

 

[IPorange]

MSU sucking also played a role.

I believe that is the statement of a man trying to save his job and I suppose you can't blame him for that.

Yeah too bad he got hurt or else it might not have been 34-3.
