The Official #19 Tennessee vs. Texas A&M Game Thread, 3:30 PM ET, CBS

[OrangeTsar]

Milton is back to holding the ball and throwing his receivers into coverage.

Yup, gotta get that ball out more quickly

 

[vols 30]

How crazy is it that Ollie Lane committed to Tennessee while Butch Jones was head coach?

Not as crazy as the play time he's getting

 

[Clad in Big Orange]

I've seen more inventive play calling from Randy Sanders. This is unwatchable.

QB is limiting the calls

 

[Col_Cathcart]

Yep. This team has been Jekyll and Hyde all year when it comes to halves. I’m not giving up yet.

Yeah. It’ll either get a lot better or a lot worse real quick

 

[ACvol3]

fla game part 2 so far....

Did we run on florida like that in the first half?

 

[Volnbeers]

Yeah, I'm starting to question the loyalty. I get Nico is a freshman, but everyone can see Milton isn't getting it done. Great coaches do what they have to do, period.

Milton should have been pulled after the guest drive. Inexcusable.

 

[rocketskates]

Last years offense would be winning 28-7

 

[Manchester Vol]

Time to retire checkerboard Neyland.

Please leave the state immediately. Go back to Alabama and move in with Saban.










Jk








Probably

 

[TC 83]

Damn what’s the game plan here for the second half

Limit penalties. Run the ball. I’m not going dig at JMs performance but he did need to get the throw on 4th down out to Sampson sooner. Other than that I thought he’s done okay considering his Oline pass pro. Keyton has got to get his head straight. He has dropped 2 of the easiest TD passes a player could ask for this season. Defense has to hold—TAMU is looking to play ball control and we seem to be reverting to 3rd and Chavis.

 

[DEFENDTHISHOUSE]

Some of the things we do and the calls we make are real head scratchers sometime.

 

[lawgator1]

Yup, gotta get that ball out more quickly

Indecisive is the issue. A second slow in deciding what to do.

 

[first time caller]

Best bet is we go 9-3. Carry some moment into next year. This game, Bama, Georgia will all be losses.

That would be 8-4, right?

 

[KTrain]

Penalties put us behind the stick's vs UF & the same is happening today. It just changes the whole dynamics of the game, the word is out if you need a flag just watch #78.
in Ollie defense some of these are what most linemen do on about every play. I just think the refs have been told to watch him that's good coaching by Jimbo if he's putting that in their ear. He probably watched the UF game said I'm going to tell refs before game if this guy don't get a yellow you aint a ref, I know how coach's work these refs,

 

[charleyhorse]

This is stupid. Milton has time; he just thinks too slowly.

Game of inches and his is ear to ear

 

[vavolfan6]

I like what I saw with Milton’s last 2 runs. We need more of that. Props to Joe on those.

One of them was on a 3rd and long where he lowered his shoulder towards out of bounds 5 yards short of first down markers. Another sign of a lack of situational awareness imo.

 

[Col_Cathcart]

How crazy is it that Ollie Lane committed to Tennessee while Butch Jones was head coach?

How can you be that old and still not know how to avoid all these penalties?

 

[RockyTop140]

I'm thinking we can't play worse in the second half. If the defense can keep them off the board we'll win this game.

I think so too. But either way we have serious issues (Ollie lane and Joe Milton) that I don’t see getting fixed

 

[Orange931]

fla game part 2 so far....

Good news is we’re only down a fg in this one at the half.

 

[SayUWantAreVOLution]

Obviously next year. Guess this is a throw away year.

Checks notes:
Tennessee is 4-1 and in the top 20.

Throwaway year?

 

[VOL_Lyfe]

Guess this is a throw away year.

I see what you did there

 

[VOLFan65]

If we don't come out a totally different team, we are in trouble.

Disagree. We just need to stop killing our drives with penalties (Looking at you Ollie Lane…). Lean on the run and keep smashing their QB on D.

 

[wmcovol]

How crazy is it that Ollie Lane committed to Tennessee while Butch Jones was head coach?

He plays like a Butch Jones recruit.

 

[Just a VolinTears]

Nico please. We gave Joe his chance after waiting 2 seasons and he failed

 

[gray0306]

OK, you can post again right after his first completed pass.

I will

 

[T-for-Tennessee]

It strikes me that Georgia and Bama are clearly beatable and just like that -- so is Tennessee. I'm going to hang in there for a win today because it might be huge. Adjustments please.
