The Official Johnny Majors Classic: Tennessee vs. Pittsburgh Game Thread, 12:00 PM ET, ESPN

[chef3531]

If we don’t put Jackson in to return a missed field goal we get the ball at the 40. Instead we now have it at the 1

Sums up our season so far

 

[Boston Vol]

ACC crew reffing an SEC-ACC match-up?? How is that fair?

Road team brings their officials

 

[TennVols12]

Banks is a clueless idiot.

3-4 penalties per game, gets beat by TEs, and runs his mouth after every tackle.

 

[eman17]

Just like the Vols to get screwed by trying to return the missed fg. If we don’t return it we get the ball near midfield. Now the drive starts at the 1.

 

[C-south]

How did they get to kick again when the penalties occurred after the change of possession?

I was wondering the same thing

 

[UTalum04]

Please explain why Bailey hasn't transferred already? This is unreal. What is going on?

 

[JonGrudensAgent]

"That was going to be one of the greatest plays in Tennessee history."

Stupid, ignorant, insulting, and wrong. You should really stop, man.

That was really idiotic for him to say.

 

[1985Vols]

That was a touchback all day every day. What the **** are these refs doing!!!!

Looked over the plane to me

 

[BP4Prez]

This is a disaster in the making right here

 

[VOLnVANDYland]

This game has been about: special teams , penalties, Pickett and Milton overthrows... I guess it should have been predicted

 

[chuckb1448]

Come on guys play Sound Fundamental football and tuck it and do a Flea Flicker!!

 

[volbound1700]

**** the Zebras. At the very least, we should have gotten the ball as both calls were AFTER the kick. People are discussing it on another board that I am on (and they are NOT even Tennessee fans).

 

[Grudenator]

If both penalties offset each other and they were both after the play then why didn’t we get it where they kicked from?

 

[TennVols12]

If he doesn’t do it does the guy make the tackle? Not justifying him by any means

Fair. Judgement. Of course my orange colored glasses say no

 

[PA Vol]

No faith in moving the ball out of this mess.

 

[tnvols72]

If he doesn’t do it does the guy make the tackle? Not justifying him by any means

we will never know but it was a OL trying to make the play

 

[chambers1517]

The reason White went with JH because all of his top targets turned us down.

Why can’t any of you understand that no great coach wants this job right now.

Good ******* grief.

Wrong, Kiffin and Freeze both would have taken it.

 

[87&91ALUM]

They better go back and call that a touchback

LOL

 

[VolArmy74]

How did they get to kick again when the penalties occurred after the change of possession?

I have no idea. I've never seen a call after the change of possession that negated the change of possession.

 

[brubaker]

Has to try Bailey this series

 

[Kicker82]

Pitt is not a good team.

But they have a qb 10x any we have played

 

[cobbwebb0710]

How did they get to kick again when the penalties occurred after the change of possession?

I wish someone would explain this to me, because I honestly don’t know the rule on this instance.
GBO!!

 

[BP4Prez]

Looked over the plane to me

Doesn’t it have to land?

 

[C-south]

How did they get to kick again when the penalties occurred after the change of possession?

I’m guessing it was because they were kicking.

 

[Cartervol]

Wtf was that? How did they get to kick again?
