Was the crowd just chanting for manning

 

[Power T-Rev]

Second team time.....

You mean third team time?

 

[MyBloodRunnethOrange]

**** this staff

They're here for the long haul. If you don't like it GTFO!

 

[Godfatha]

4th and 1 punt. Nice

 

[Catbone]

Kneel the ball and get out. Just like I said

 

[fade route]

at the rate of injury they'd be better to forfeit.

I sure as hell hope Florida wins the east. Bama is elite.

You hope Florida wins the east? How idiotic

 

[mpfvol]

Bama has called off the dogs

 

[utvolpj]

Tell me again how a roster literally full of 4 and 5 star players doesn't matter.

And how good our current recruiting class which has twenty 3 star commits is going to be somehow magically better than Alabama's class.

You said you were leaving. Be a man of your word

[sccshortstop]

Does Butch man up and look at the problems on his staff or does he chalk it up to injuries?

he will not because he still thinks it is the best

 

[chattavol420]

Dobbs could have kept the ball numerous times on the read but chose not to..

Don't you think of the coaches were to tell dobbs to keep it he would?

 

[warrior2226z]

Just joking but the fans should start boooing or chanting fire butch. Just joking dam trying to find the lighter side of things

 

[Rockytoptalker]

So how is what he said incorrect? Or are you just mad cause he called Butch out for what he is, a coach that couldn't beat Dooley, and hires his friends instead of getting the best coaches he can, to the detriment of the Tennessee football program.

"A coach that couldn't beat Dooley." Are people still on that tired excuse? You know the record difference the two? Do you have any idea at all? And you call firing Jancek and hiring Shoop sticking with his friends.

But, by all means, let's rid ourselves of the man who completely turned our program around. HE makes detrimental decisions, after all.

 

[volgrad500]

Georgia **** the bed makes us look worse than this game honestly. The East is just bad bad bad this year.

 

[GAVol]

Do we pull Ev Berry and others who can still help us get to Atl?

Evan Berry limped off after the punt return.

 

[omghulkhands]

Great call to punt IMO

No need to risk further injuries. Both teams will chill out and grind clock to get this over

 

[volforlife15]

Hate to think we were sandbagging (offensively, with all the injuries). Maybe Butch is banking on a re-match when we are reasonably healthy.

Again, I hate to think it. I mean, damn, we are punting.

A rematch wouldn't change the outcome. Maybe the differential but they are way too talented. Their D is the best in a long time

 

[gr82batnvol]

Punt on 4th and 1? Are you serious??????

 

[VOLup2uous]

DeBord needs to be locked in the fing press box until his ass is fired.. What a sorry ass called game.. embarrassment..

 

[Nationdom]

I was behind Butch until he decided to kick that field goal. Pathetic. And then the punt???

 

[tnvols72]

Hate to think we were sandbagging (offensively, with all the injuries). Maybe Butch is banking on a re-match when we are reasonably healthy.

Again, I hate to think it. I mean, damn, we are punting.

A healthy Tn will get beat down just like they are right now. They still have BJ and Debored and Mahoney

 

[MyBloodRunnethOrange]

I just wish BJ would hurry up and wear his welcome out

You want to start over with another coach? Brilliant.

 

[volcop1]

it was an uphill battle from the start. People keep acting like they just realized saban is a good coach

all week long we were told how "competitive" we were going to be against bama not

 

[patrick]

Saban replaces injured players with other 4and 5 star players however the Vols replace injured players with 3 star players or worse. SMH

 

[BeardedVol]

Go shave

Please tell me how anything I have said is incorrect? Take off those orange glasses, this is reality.
