Over/Under on Pitt fake injuries this weekend?

10+ before half time if we start rolling.

Last year when UT played Ole Miss according to Tennessee's stats and play-by- at the end of the game, there were 18 recorded stoppages for injuries in Saturday's game, including 11 in the fourth quarter. Drive killers.

It's ridiculous and killing the game. If the NFL can get a game in 3 hours, it should not take 4.5 hours to finish a college game.

Preemptive whining about fake injuries. SMH.

Don't see it as whining lol... Tbh the more fake injuries you see means the offense is rolling.. Its just a poll dude

This is just like the shift in baseball. Until their is a rule change, only a fool of a coach would not exploit this like crazy to slow UT down. If it doesn’t happen at least 15 times, then we either have major problems or Pitt is a bunch of dummies getting that ass whipped.

It's legal. It's simple. We have to adapt. It's on us if we haven't at this point.

What does adapting look like? There isn't much we can do, if anything.

Well, we fans have a response that it throws our O out of rhythm and then we struggle to pick up the next first down. Hopefully our coaching staff has built in fake injuries to practice so we are used to the delay and the O can re-focus and keep rolling.

Its not about throwing us out of rythm. Its that we lined up and caught the other team unprepared and in a personnel mismatch so the other team flops to get a free timeout AND then substitutes the right personnel on the field. Its cheating for free unlimited timeouts.

What, you think it ain't happening?

What, you think it ain't happening?

I think it's pointless to whine about it, it's not illegal. We have to adapt and have some plays ready that don't depend on tempo. We've had all off-season to know it wasn't going to be penalized, it's on us if we don't have a contingency plan.

I hear you but just know, Tennessee fakes injuries too. We just did a flop last week.

A guy did a breakdown on here last year of the Ole Miss game and cited the down and minute mark of each flop and the flopping was actually pretty even between the two teams. We were both doing it. Alot of people responded angrily to him, but no one proved him wrong.

If there is really no penalty in game, there is no reason to not have in your playback. However, use it wisely. No matter what team.
