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

[jdogvol]

Pathetic. Just pathetic.

 

[Steve_Smith89]

Are you kidding!!?? You got Botch Ball 2.0 in full display!!!! It sucks as bad as it did with Butch!

I was told Heupel had a high octane fun offense but I'm confused because this is pathetic high school caliber offense.

We have abandoned the short/mid passing game for no reason

 

[Volbrando]

Has TENNESSEE thrown/completed a slant pass yet this year?

That’s why I was wondering if we had a short pass game. It’s either run or long ball it seems

 

[Mose Phillip's Watch]

I hope we get this fixed by Bama game

 

[Cartervol]

I know Bailey cannot run Heupel's high-school offense but if he could complete a forward pass it would be a improvement over this cat. This one cannot throw or run...

 

[Illinoisvolfan2]

Okay. Time for Bailey. Seen enough of Hooker. He ain’t the answer

 

[DEFENDTHISHOUSE]

There’s got to be something going on behind the scenes.

Bailey showed decent awareness last year and did a good job in the spring game. It doesn’t make sense at all.

 

[Frozevol]

What is the appeal to playing Hooker/Milton? Neither one can run with the football at all

That 50 yarder by Milton was pretty nice if you recall. But credit the OL to screw that one up.

 

[joevol33]

If I was him I’d stay right there. He’s gonna have a shot based on qb play

Not if he doesn't shine in practice. It seems with us, that's all that matters

 

[RDU VOL#14]

We apparently only have 2 yard outs or hail mary’s In the playbook.
GBO!!

I’m all for spreading the field, but the 15-25 ball should be open.

 

[volbound1700]

Oh so we’re blaming the calls now? Are you watching the game? Our QBs are terrible. Nostradamus couldn’t make a good call with these QBs

Adjust your play calling to the QBs. 2nd and 18 on your own 5 is a tough call for any QB to do, even Brady.

 

[VOLnVANDYland]

If I was him I’d stay right there. He’s gonna have a shot based on qb play

Lol… when… how bad do these qbs have to suck to see HB??? I would be in the portal tomorrow… this is a joke

 

[UTK]

6-6

Maybe if the team buys in and improves as the season goes along. But just see too many issues

 

[Nationdom]

need a 3 and out and a quick TD

 

[BigOrangeAl 1979]

3-9 maybe 2-10 this might be the worst Vol football team yet. And Heupel is not a great recruiter so we don’t have to fall back on.

 

[Jxn Vol]

4-8

Maybe. If South Carolina gets it figured out then yes, 4-8

 

[govols67]

These penalties are out of control!

 

[CPVOL]

It is unfathomable that Bailey can’t be better than Hooker. I mean cmon. If this is it then the why not lineup in the wildcat every play

 

[orangelo]

What part of reading comprehension didn't you get in college or in your case high school. No one wants a part of this dumpster fire.

Well you said you wanted to get rid of him in the prior post? What part of he has to go do you not get? The part where someone has to coach this team?

 

[OrangeEtBlanc]

Because another dumb penalty had nothing to do with it.

The 2nd-down & 18 play call after the penalty was awful.

 

[Flipdaddy]

I hope we get this fixed by Bama game

 

[nate from decatur]

Is Tennessee required to have a football team?

 

[Caz]

Could it be we are not wanting to show anything because of the upcoming Tech game?

 

[fossilfiction]

Run up the middle, streak, swing pass. Rinse and repeat.
No slants, out routes, posts, drags, or anything else that all passing teams do.

 

[irish1485]

I don't think we'll see Neyland full again for a very long time
