I am not saying anyone should go find these people on Twitter or other social media to tell them how you feel about them but......
Referee: Jerry Magallanes
Umpire: Tom Laverty
Linesman: Brian Perry
Line Judge: Brian Sakowski
Back Judge: Rob Lucklan
Field Judge: Kip Johnson
Side Judge: George Liotus
Center Judge: Larry Saunders

:rolleyes:

It would be a huge understatement to say they suck balls

The field looked like it was as slick as wet glass
I can believe they are playing the Dolphins on that field it is unacceptable to NFL Standards

They did nothing since last home game and probably delayed repairs till after the Music City Bowl was played.

That Field will be up much better shape on Sunday because of the potential injury to NFL players

This field affected Tennessee's Speed today and not so much Purdue and I would have probably changed Cleats at Halftime.

Secondary was about as bad today as we've seen since Sal Sunseri graced the sidelines.

Allowing 534 yards passing is just awful no matter how you cut it. And its not like Purdue was an elite offense.
They were missing their top two receivers before the start, had one with two bad knees, and another injured and never returned. Yet, we still couldn't stop them. Disappointed in our secondary would be an understatement.

I asked that in another thread. Why didn't the players change to longer cleats? Maybe I didn't pay much attention to Purdue, but it seems we were affected by the field a lot more than them.
It could have been the Cleats they were wearing but our speed was affected for some reason. Purdue is use to Slower game speed than we are and had advantage with the field conditions. The more we played the worse the field conditions

5tds and what 45 points and I think no interceptions doesn’t seem ugly to me. There are 21 other players on that field and a few are probably ugly. Not Hooker though
Well that was posted right after he fumbled the ball to let Purdue win the first half. He was decent overall. A great QB probably scores 60 today with how wide open the WR were running. We have a good one though.

The ugly - players getting a full ride scholarship and opting out of the last game of their college career. They get a degree and pay for it by playing football….every game and every play they are asked to.
Both of my daughters graduated with a degree and I made every payment in full….I couldn’t opt out of the last payment!!

question .. i was watching some of the NC and SC game -- and they both wore their home jerseys ..NC - Columbia Blue and SC - Scarlett Red ... now why in the world would Tennessee not be wearing Orange jerseys and Purdie those black jerseys .. would make the look be a whole lot better .. I think when colors are distinctly differne the jerseys should be the Home Color ... guess they were afraid these moron refs would forget who was the Home team ....

Tennessee hasn't been a physical football team since 2001.

In reality, 45 points should be more than enough to win most games. I’ve been frustrated all season (and many previous ones) due to our inability to pressure the QB. I long for the days of Henderson and Haynesworth. A QB is less accurate when his azz gets planted often enough.

Biggest issue facing Tennessee has been, for 20 years, the inability to consistently gain 1-2 yds when you really need to. The 3rd & short and 4th & short conversion ratio versus good P5 teams is NOT good.
