I need a stiffer drink…

 

[BradstarVols]

Most embarrassing loss for any team this season?

 

[C-south]

Lol. We are getting waxed but the officials must have some money on the game.

 

[FLSTF-VOL]

And everyone gave me complete hell a couple of weeks ago because I mentioned that we may be just a bit overrated because of our defense. OUR defense is complete trash!

 

[voltampa]

I am in stands. In shock. Please wake up and rally

 

[mpfvol]

Well Vols fans we had a good run but back to reality Vols just are not their yet and may never be their it what it is . Go Vols even if you lose to a shatty SC team

 

[Jdw2920]

Just shows that you must have a defense. Plus you must have numerous options on offense when the “long ball” isn’t there.

It’s been a while where I let a loss impact my mood. I hate allowing it but I admit I am ticked and so disappointed. And I bet Beamer will reference the late score Vs Mizz during his post game show. He will make some type of dig.

Yea makes you angry watching. Definitely think the offense is sluggish and forcing the ball to
Tillman. He is a heck of a player but just lost his rhythm with offense and hasn’t found it back. Hoping for a miracle here but want happen.

 

[DEFENDTHISHOUSE]

I would like to see CJH call out this crap on D during the postgame. This is completely unacceptable in scheme, effort, and execution.

Nah, just fire Tim Banks.

 

[Carl Pickens]

The D is getting embarrassed so badly that I kind of feel sorry for them. They been punched in the face and left lying in a puddle of their own blood and piss

 

[tbh]

So in other words,it an definition of an choke job.

No doubt. In particular, the defense is choking on what the Gamcocks are throwing at them, so to speak.

 

[BigOrangeFanatic]

Welp there's the season.

Epic choke job.

 

[YankeeVol]

South Carolina putting a 50-burger on this defense with playoffs on the line should get Tim Banks fired. This is inexcusable. 50!!!!!!!!!

Mother f’er should be left in Columbia. Find his own way back.

 

[nomads-11]

Hard to not have a weakness exposed for 12 games. But then the penalties can just exacerbate it. And sometimes, it's just not your night. Sad to see because there's a lot on the line. Happens. But if you don't address your weakness (the D) it'll haunt you season to season. Right now TN is being haunted.

 

[Mr. Orange]

Career best game for Rattler.

 

[Memphisvol87]

No more playoff talk. Can at least have a 10 win season and a New Year’s Day bowl.

That’s like making music city at this point. Carolina is a really bad team.

 

[CR-vol]

I guess other teams have figured us out. I dunno. Never expected this. Not the end of the world but sure did ruin our hopes.

 

[Beauknowsfootball]

Is hadden gone after this year? I sure hope, he has been atrocious all year

 

[Switch 625]

This is what UT does. We can’t finish things out and the bed. Every. Time. Always.

 

[2VolsDeep]

Hell fire we will make Vandy look like natty contenders.

 

[tvolsfan]

The 1938 secondary might be better current day than what we trotted out tonight

Their corpses might be better.

 

[Arrested Devolopment]

Oy. I'm having another.

 

[JoAllan]

Hadden shouldn't be on the field.

If there’s just one guy all alone over there……hey at least be right up on him.

 

[LLcoolDave]

Man this defense of ours just can't get it done

 

[hatingbamaisawayoflife]

We suck again

 

[Smokey7]

Anyone else steaming inside?
