The Official #9 Tennessee vs. #1 Alabama Game Thread, 3:30 pm ET, CBS

[Dergibvol]

Gators will be in atl not Vols

 

[patrick]

Great game for all the uncommitted recruits to confirm they will go elsewhere.

talk about a blow out....

unreal...

 

[Vol_is_Lyfe18]

Butch is so scared of his players making mistakes that he makes a number of his own crucial mistakes every game.

 

[BJSforVols]

4th and 1 and you're down 32 points and you punt!?!? Seriously? This is just beyond f****** embarrassing.

The white towel has been thrown. We are just trying to get this game over and get guys healthy now.

 

[illinoisvolfan1]

OSU will beat them.

Don't think so.

 

[Wylo]

Saban isn't whom I'm referring to. He's a great coach. There's no denying that. Tennessee is banged up and it's showing but this could be year 8 of CBJ system and the "well, we just have to recruit better" excuse will still be used every season.

Butch won't beat Bama.

 

[volchile]

My observation is even with all the guys out, we are far less talented than that other team..and it hurts to say that

 

[Tarkus]

Yes it's pretty damn weak. The only team that is a threat Gators.
All other teams either rebuilding, or small potatoes.

The Gators aren't a threat either.

 

[VolsSportsFan]

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

Honestly I think it's Alabama is that much better than everyone.

It's Bama, us, and TAMU, Arkansas is decent, and everyone else blows chunks.

 

[fade route]

Butch played scared and got steamrolled. Winning coaches play to win. Butch plays to not lose.

No. He didn't play not to lose in games we had to come back to win and didn't coach that way today. Bama has more talent, like a lot more talent especially on the Oline, and is more fundamentally sound. Not to mention their play caller vs our play caller is like Harvard vs a community college.

 

[KB5252]

What happens if Florida and Georgia get better?

Butch is taking advantage of an extremely weak SEC East and he still might not make the SECCG

Are you saying we are the new Vandy?

 

[Tennesseefan240]

Last year's team was better never once got embarrassed like this

 

[vol-un-tear]

Dear Lord, take me to my happy place.

Hoagie on dark please!

 

[1volmanhere]

Getting beat by a better team.we have a lot of injuries. Refs don't help.anyway go vols!

 

[firestorm]

Play some damn d

 

[Volstylexx]

Gators will be in atl not Vols

Wouldn't be the worst thing to happen to us.

 

[GoVolunteers]

4th and 1 and you're down 32 points and you punt!?!? Seriously? This is just beyond f****** embarrassing.

That was smart in my opinion. Don't get the yard and open yourself up to greater embarrassment

 

[joevol33]

Gators will be in atl not Vols

How you figure? They'll lose another, we won't. How will they over take us?

 

[BIGAL27]

4th and 1. Butch punts. He is an idiot.

exactly wtf

 

[LittleCat]

Wtf

 

[UTAlum03]

Sickening

 

[VolnJC]

You think we have problems? Arizona is down to playing a TE at QB...USC destroying them

How bad is Arizona's quarterback situation? How about this: reserve tight end Matt Morin has entered the game in relief of Khalil Tate.

 

[Obsessed]

49-10

 

[ETV]

I would rather lose today and kick there ---- in Atlanta it's not common to beat saban twice in a season.

What makes everyone so sure that Tennessee will win out and Florida will lose several games along the way?

 

[sccshortstop]

that is why you punt so you can give up another long td
