huepel letting them back into the game

 

[TN1111]

About to be a ballgame... TN about to really tighten up. Inexcusable

 

[Deathandtaxes]

Just a reminder that Syracuse led the entire nation in passing last year, averaging 370 yards/game.

That’s great but that’s not really the problem

 

[patrick]

As good as we looked in 1st half we have looked equally if not worse the second half. What a sh$$ show.

 

[OmahaOmaha]

We're up by 18?...

2 tds = a 6 pt lead. Cuse is dominating this half.

 

[VolArmy74]

Hats off to Syracuse's staff. They have taken Banks and Heupel to school this half.

 

[Berry4Heisman14]

Once again I still don’t understand the love for Tim banks.

 

[Matt2496]

This is an 8 win team. It appears the defense is going to be a huge liability this year.

 

[YankeeVol]

We are not good

 

[ttocswob]

Excuse 0 for 2...

 

[rocketskates]

This defense is GASSED AND BAD! We may need to see if anyone I the band can play

If we don’t do something on offense here then watch out because you’re exactly right. I’m telling you—that pattycaking around the last few drives is gonna make this game way more interesting than it should’ve been.

We are getting bullied off the line. I know we are thin at DT now. But what do you think UGA, Bama, and UF are going to do to us on the ground

Middle of pack Syracuse team bullying us. This look sad. We need the announcers to tell us again how good Banks is. Wow, I didn’t expect our defense to get pushed around like this.

 

[DEFENDTHISHOUSE]

Time to crank up the offense Heupel.

 

[BallinVol]

I thought this defense was supposed to be Heupels best yet? Sounds like snake oil so far

 

[tnvols72]

Once again I still don’t understand the love for Tim banks.

or Willie

 

[volmoon]

Some D are dragging to the sideline

 

[BUCCnVOLfan]

come on offense!!

 

[Arrested Devolopment]

Need two more scores before I can have my celebratory scotch.

 

[minorvol]

Got to score here. Let’s go.

 

[posivol]

alright fellows lets put a drive together and finish them off

 

[HighRockvol]

Now bet we go conservative again smh

 

[Go47]

That’s great but that’s not really the problem

They are running it down our throat.

 

[LLcoolDave]

need to answer on this drive or I'll be in pucker mode

 

[Rocky Top T]

Don't want to hear our defense is elite! Average at best!

 

[VolunteerCeltic]

Giving up 26 points to Cuse unbelievable !
