Embarrassing. Game should have been over long ago

 

[SonOfGodVolforlife]

Hooker INT in OT incoming

That or a quick three and out, pitt kicks a field goal somehow.

 

[AllVols]

Yeah another year where I try to hold my expectations low. Get caught up in the hype thinking that we have something special. I'm just going to have to lower them back down.

 

[RAVOL]

Well We'll. OT. Let's get this done and get out with W. So many players didn't execute this half. Allowing Pitt to play OT. In CHRIST Alone

 

[EconVol92]

Hooker has just not been himself at all this game.

 

[Shakinthefat]

Geez. Back up QB, Pitt with all kinds of gimpy players and we Couldn’t close the deal.

Gimpy leg backup QB

 

[ftsandersvol]

When we look good, we look good. When we look bad, we look really bad.

 

[5FingerVolPunch]

Win or lose, at least we didn’t get beat by App St

 

[C-south]

Seems like our OL has regressed...How is that possible? Another year in the S&C program, so should be stronger, but it doesn't seem like it...Mays and Spraggins have had a tough day out there...

You can be bigger and stronger and still suck.

 

[PA Vol]

I’m 34, almost 35. In my lifetime we have lost wayyyy more OT games than we’ve won.

 

[HighRockvol]

Heup not the answer

 

[MeanOrange]

Framing unreal that we have only scored 3 points in the second half.

Good post. Where is the high powered JH offense?

 

[Vol737]

Would be really nice to be sitting in the locker room with a W right now. Oh well, free football coming up.

 

[Volbrando]

I’m suddenly not very optimistic about this season.

The only positive about this game is there is gonna be some major things to watch on tape

 

[VolFreakJosh]

Yeah… unfortunately. I like Huepel but the Vols have been way too sloppy since he’s been coach. He has to change that or he’s always going to be a 7-5 type coach

Lol, Pruitt was way worse

 

[vavolfan6]

at least we can't muff punts or have them blocked in overtime

 

[OrngeJuiceJones]

Just stop running the ball at all. We have no great RB. We never got any push today. Just sling it.

 

[saxvol]

We should be up 3 scores. I just don’t understand. Fumble on 3rd and 1, fumble on the punt, giving up TD on 4th and goal. What the fk

Not to mention The touchdown pass that went threw Tilman's hands

 

[Dudleys87]

I guess it could be worse….

I’m sure there’s some old oil money trying to figure out a way to fire Jimbo tonight.

 

[TooLegit2Quit]

The special teams(outside of FG unit) and offense failed this team in regulation. The offense needs to win this in OT. I don't care who wins the coin toss. We need a TD on the first possession. I expect the D to keep doing what they are doing, thank goodness for the breather.

 

[Orange931]

No matter what happens in this one, I don’t feel confident in getting at least 8 wins

 

[acd4476]

Any reason why we have the only coach who doesn't at least try to get the other to to jump offsides a d then punts with 9 seconds on the playclock

 

[TheDeeble]

Hooker INT in OT incoming

Hopefully the online can block and give him time.

 

[GrizzlyVol]

Dropped passes, turnovers, penalties and play calling has us set up for a defeat by a gimpy backup... let the laughing begin, however maybe just maybe we pull it out

 

[Carl Pickens]

Heupel didn’t fumble the punt, drop the TD in the end zone. We had opportunities to end this game already. Players have to execute. Hooker hasn’t looked great either.

The team lacks discipline and he can improve his situational play calling
