The Kentucky game will be big for this senior class by the end of the year.

Even though they had a winning record and a decent showing going into SEC play, they're quickly revealing themselves to be the same ole Wildcats. They're not going to win a conference game for a while.

Half a step away from a great play that would have stopped the score. I think that is some of the misery Nick is feeling.

That's a great pic, in a heartbreaking kind of way. I hope we remember these moments when we get back on top - yes I said when. It's easy to get all pompous and arrogant when you're winning. Moments like these are humbling for a fan base like ours.

Another thing people aren't thinking about with Reveiz is the fact that this team has no depth. Think about how many plays he was in on. I mean he gave everything he had to give in the game without rest. It is only logical that he is going to wear out late in the 4th quarter. Just maybe a little of the reason why he was late on a few of the coverages.

As far as the tackles he missed, if those were early in the game he would have dropped those guys on contact. When there is hardly any rotation for you in a tight defensive ballgame it's only natural that your going to run out of energy.

Then again I'm just a dumb bammer.:good!:

Thanks tidenumber1!

It sucks that it takes a bammer to point out what is so very clear.

Hell I almost cried and i was sitting on my couch. He was beating the #10 team in the nation in Death Valley (as a walkon) then having it ripped away from him. True heart Nick, you will always be remembered as a TRUE ORANGE BLOODED VOL!!!

25 years. Doubt this class wants to be remembered for ending that. Plus, a bowl game could be on the line.

Difference between Nick and Tebow (The big one in my mind):

Tebow was crying while the game was still going on while Nick cried while the game is over. If Tebow cried after the game, I would not have cared. But doing it while on the sideline just seems petty.

I also think when it comes to Tebow that game really wasn't in doubt. He did have the one good drive that ended in a TD. He then tried to do his fist pumping and get everyone going, but it wasn't enough because their D got slashed that day. It really wasn't one of his best games. Not like he poured his heart out on the field. Like you said more so on the sideline.

With Reveiz, he gave every ounce he had. Then thought they had it just to have it taken away man. I really think you are comparing apples to oranges.

tidenumber1, I really appreciate the fact that you appreciate an athlete on our team.

I did and if that's all you took from that, I don't know what to tell you. For the past year, when a gator acts up all we've had to do was remind them of Tebow bawling on the sideline. It's been done here many times. Now, one of our does it, and it's all heart. Given, I would've probably done the same in either situation and I'm not blasting either. But you can't make fun of one and praise the other.

I actually agree with you.

I'm not bashing him for crying, but it seems like we have a double standard here. Of course, Teblow did do it a lot more.

Still can't believe UT fans are willing to lump it on Tebow for crying after a loss when Reveiz does the same here. Both players play with all heart and leave everything on the field. That's the underlying factor in all of this. If you can't accept that, then don't. It doesn't matter who's on your team and how good they are - both these guys are so emotionally tied to these games that it's near impossible not to turn the other cheek when you've done all you could and still come up short.
