The Official #15 Tennessee vs. Miss St Game Thread, 4:15 ET, SECN

[jaxvol]

6 seconds.

8 seconds on a fair caught punt?

 

[utvolpj]

If you're going to let the time run out, why do you let Boo field the punt?

Because if they down it on the half yard line again you can't take a knee

 

[Carl Pickens]

As bad as the Vols have been it’s still a tie game. Clean up a few things and make a couple of adjustments and they can still win by 14

 

[Delmar]

It’s his friend across the field.. I hope he knows this is business and nothing personal!!! Do better next half, Coach!

Players need to do better next half. They didn’t exactly hold up their end of the bargain.

38 yards rushing

game predictions - Who wins straight up?

Thoughts?

 

[BreatheUT]

Not even gonna take the shot

<smh>

When he didn't take a timeout the knee was the only option in that spot.

 

[Volnanza]

Sloppy first half. We should be up by at least 14. We need a sub for Staley. He is having a real bad day. Fumbled punt, let punt roll by him to be downed on the 1, missing catches.

 

[PerryCountyVol]

Best case going into half after that sloppy half. Offense just needs to finish drives and defense needs to just wrap up

 

[rocketskates]

Only good part is Shapen is shook from all of the hits he’s been taking

 

[jacksonvol24]

Heupel is such a pansy. Coaching scared again today on the road. Just gave State a gift by not using his timeout. That was so weak

 

[BigOrangeFanatic]

If we get through this one with a W it will be nice to get the clunker out of our system.

You aint lying. Still got UF at the end of the year though. Vanderbilt looks to be a tough game too.

 

[sonofUT62]

Coaching staff should be glad we aren’t at home. The crowd would be ugly.

 

[OldandStillaVol]

Obviously we don't trust our defense or special teams. Puts a lot of pressure on offense.

 

[TN1111]

Our offense only managed 10 points in the first half. Have to be much better in the 2nd.

 

[Matt2496]

We look like the bigger, better team overall. Sloppy mistakes are what is keeping this game close. I have no reason to think we won't win this game.

 

[captainsword]

38 to 122 yards rushing

I expected our lines to outplay them. Not happening.

We win. We have played good and bad at times. But we win this game straight up. I say 10 points

 

[Proud Army Wife]

We should be. We aren’t. That doesn’t mean his claim that we have hit our limit on mistakes is accurate. We get the ball. We are tied. The truth is we could likely make a few more big mistakes and still win

Yup, this looks like a sloppy clunker Kirby is prone to do against teams like KY, Mizzou, etc. It’s clear that Tennessee is the more talented team. Hopefully they have an awakening at the break.

 

[Vol4LIFE85]

Better clean it up or this game comes down to a FG and thats not good for us right now.

 

[vol94]

38 yards rushing

Not good - but don’t like running on 1st down. Must keep State off balance.

 

[Bigkat]

We play weak football

 

[volbound1700]

This is a game we just need to survive. I don't care if we win by 1 point, as long as we get a W.

 

[SubVet676]

30 minute game. Tied. Vols need to be 1 point better when the clock hits 0:00.

Simple as that.

 

[BeardedVol]

Heupel going tight-butthole in the first half isn't good.
