Tackling is killing us

[allen phillips]

First and last post of the day. If we could tackle than we might have a chance to win this game. Worst OL and worst tackling team in the SEC.

 

[Berry4Heisman14]

No ****

 

[casetopia]

I think not tackling is hurting us even more.

 

[USMC-TNVOL]

No offense as well.

 

[Rudy123]

Doesn't look good. Shurmur is playing well and we are coming out playing flat
No energy

Well, its not like we have anything to play for.

 

[dduncan4163]

Yeah we look like garbage

 

[dduncan4163]

Seriously this team hasn't looked alive since Ky. What's the deal

 

[VolArmy74]

It's ridiculous to get absolutely dominated by a team with way less raw talent. But it's happening. What a dismal season and we don't even have the misplaced hope of thinking the admin will hire a decent coach in the off season like we did last year.

 

[panhandlevol]

Complete trash out of position and missing wide open tackles

Absolutely pathetic, they look like they just want the season to get over I think there's a lot of guys on this team they don't want to go to a bowl because they'll have to practice for 15 more days. This team doesn't have a lot of talent or heart and they don't look like they were prepared to play this game by the coaches.

 

[Volatility]

Should we tell the players that you can’t get away with tackling a D1 player above the waist? I thought it was common sense but I guess not.

 

[ftsandersvol]

You got that right.

 

[MadWorld]

Totally embarrassing so far. Good grief.

 

[onevol74]

How can you tackle when your LB’s are always trailing the play? Poor defensive schemes.

 

[Rudy123]

Well, its not like we have anything to play for.

Bowl game. Extra practice for player's. Extra game for seniors. Bonus for coaching staff

 

[MadWorld]

This team needs a re-boot. Come on UT.

It was blue font, meaning he was being sarcastic

We need an OC. The little under route throws for 3 yrds on 3rd and 7 is not working. Helton needs to find his ’s again.

What about a QB that can read defenses?

All of it is killing us. Can’t tackle, can’t block, can’t run, can’t throw, can’t do anything.

I’ll take that too. Just did not want to be that greedy

 

[90 Vol]

Lack of heart is what’s killing us.

We don't have as much talent as people think. We're slow, weak and can't cover...As much as I hate to say it Butch's fingerprints are still on the program. Will take 2 years to correct in my opinion. Should be better next year but that's not saying a whole lot

There are no guarantees that next year will be any better. Pruitt will soon find out that he can't recruit either. It's easy to recruit at Fla St, GA and Bummer but Tennessee is a loser destination for kids today. Hell, even Vandy owns us.
