Recruiting Forum Football Talk IX

[engineerVOL]

I feel like the broadcast did a poor job of showing how much orange was in the stadium. I’m seeing more of it in the post game videos than TV showed. It’s like they didn’t want to show wide shots of all the orange, but we got wide shots of the white out. Maybe I overlooked it while live

Broadcast was bad.

Audio was soft, no sideline mics, never heard a whistle or pads popping, and too much dead air.

So, explain this to me. Penn State falls to number six after taking Oregon to overtime and losing. We don't move at all after taking Georgia (who was number 4 at the time) to overtime. Which team has Penn State played that is better than the teams we played?

B1G admin and media stick together to make sure their member schools are positioned favorably. SEC admin is perfectly happy to slit each other's throats while a lot of SEC media is trying to prove it is not just regional, but nationally aware & relevent.

 

[engineerVOL]

Yall are wasting too much time with trying to reason the rankings. It all works itself out.

 

[SpringBokVol]

If you really re ranked the teams on quality wins, quality losses and eye test Vols would be top 10 easy

 

[Nuctech777]

Do you mean Perry at LG? Or would they move Moe to LG?

I think they have said Moe to LG and Perry at RG. I could be wrong though. Will be interesting to see what they do for sure

 

[headhunter15]

The Titans…man.

 

[csprig9]

Vandy is no joke.

Well they are in the figurative sense.

But they can play football this year.

pump the brakes on candy
Will find out how good they are these next 7 games
Bama, lsu, mizzou, Texas, aubby, Tennessee and UK

That’s correct. Before Syracuse it was:
Heard
Moe
Pendleton
Perry
Sanders

LSU's best win is La Tech.

 

[Ten_Titans]

will be interesting to see the OL lineup play out..Sanders better be the dude at RT to replace Perry, and Sham has been solid.

We have not been running the ball well enough. I have no ability to diagnose that, but I wouldn't say we have some flawless unit there and shouldn't mess with it.

I do understand not wanting to replace Perry, even if he's staying on the field. He's playing better than Heard in pass pro, and both have been great.

 

[ETNVolunteer1]

Looking at it repeatedly, it struck me that the defender lost his balance when Brazzell swiped his arm down to remove the defender’s hand that was pushing against Brazzell if that makes sense. Was as bad of an Opi as I can ever recall seeing.

A Mississippi St friend of mine said the same thing to me this morning. Said he felt they deserved the win but that the OPI call on us was a really bad call.

 

[Rishvol]

And Perry’s been good. Although he did get cooked once in pass pro yesterday. A good problem to have

For someone who was supposed to be starting at Guard he's been excellent at RT

 

[Orangeburst]

Old Miss sure got a big bump for defeating a vastly overrated LSU team that struggles to put a 20 spot on scoreboard

 

[SKV84]

Oklahoma at #5 is hilarious.

 

[Rishvol]

Perry came back in and replaced him for the last couple of drives, no?

Point remains. He got thrown into the fire and only had one real mess up.

Can't blame him for it. Shift on the dline (now a penalty I believe) and cow bells still ringing while center was over the ball

Boo Carter 90.5 coverage grade
Jalen McMurray 89.5 Coverage grade
Colton Hood 87 Coverage grade

McCoy coming back is going to be huge. Boo can slide to safety and keep Jalen at Star.

I really hope we do move Boo to safety. Turrentine is good in the box but not in space or in coverage. Boo is quicker

 

[rocktopper16]

David Smith won't be able to ref that game because he is a Gump alumni, former team captain, and the Sun Bowl MVP. It'll probably be the supervisor for Alabama Power, Steve Marlowe. He's from Birmingham and hates the VOLS too. View attachment 777321
*he officiated our Georgia game and his crew didn't threw a single flag on the dawgs the whole 2nd half.





******* it shouldn't be Steve Marlowe either. He is also alabama alumni. View attachment 777323View attachment 777324


*Whoever broadcasts the games need to start putting the whole referee crew on the screen during the 1st quarter or pregame. It'd be very interesting to see who lives where and what college they attended. It's past ridiculous the amount of hostiles refereeing in our conference

Just look at how the Bulldogs got done by that crew last night.

 

[OGbabyaviVol]

LSU's best win is La Tech.

Yet let’s rank them ahead of TN

 

[VolNRaleighNC]

Boo Carter 90.5 coverage grade
Jalen McMurray 89.5 Coverage grade
Colton Hood 87 Coverage grade

McCoy coming back is going to be huge. Boo can slide to safety and keep Jalen at Star.

Take it with a grain of salt but LWSVOL says McCoy hasn’t participated in any practices yet. No contact yet. He said he’d be shocked if McCoy was back by Arkansas.

 

[Smokey123]

If I was a miss state fan I’d be mad they aren’t ranked. 4-1 and beat Arizona state that’s ranked. Only loss is in OT to a top 15 team

 

[TheMookieMonster]

15 in the ap poll as well
View attachment 777322

SIAP but explain ASU being ranked and MSU not being ranked lmao. The AP is so dumb.

 

[OGbabyaviVol]

Just look at how the Bulldogs got done by that crew last night.

That wasn’t Marlowe last night. Haven’t seen that guy. However must be the new Bama blood because Bama had multiple penalties not called that should have been.

 

[zhangliao04]

Gotta keep the INTs in single digits.

That INT stat doesn’t tell the whole story.
