Bottom line ... WE CAN NOT TRY TO RUN THE BALL ON EXPECTED RUNNING PLAYS! They're eating our lunch and smacking their lips. Come on OC, mix it up.

 

[Shakinthefat]

Hey Auburn , coming out with a run up the middle on this 1st down....get ready.

 

[RiverVol]

^^^^ agreed x1bazillion.

clearly an arm tackle way out of bounds. huh.

 

[tnracer73]

I agree Helton is looking like he needs replaced.

 

[Volfan2012]

OL is not good enough to run up the middle we need more sweeps and short passes.

 

[knoxchief]

Horrible officiating has given Auburn 7 and taken 7 away from us. Getting tired of the officiating against the Vols.

I'm used to it. Seems that way every single week we play.

 

[HEX #f77f00]

When you're bad you dont get calls

Yep

 

[VOL_Lyfe]

Im guessing........ A RUN UP THE GUT ON FIRST DOWN HERE

 

[GetEmVols]

I better see a pass on first down. If not I will whine like a lil girl.

 

[peerless98]

I have a novel idea. Let's run on first down.

Not gonna happen!!

 

[VolsLady-in-FL]

Played a competitive half, that's for sure.

Especially considering how much of an underdog we are. Like every game

 

[DocVOLiday]

I have a novel idea. Let's run on first down.

I just keep telling myself that we're taking losses on first down runs to "set up the play action" (still waiting though)

 

[BearCat204]

It’s so obvious that at Guards sans Center are sooo weak..

We are trying to run the ball like we are big and strong on the offensive line while we aren’t. We have to adjust our offensive philosophy to match our personnel and Pruitt is refusing to do that.

 

[ncvol004]

Throw it deep on 1st down just to keep auburn on there heels

 

[governmentmule]

what ever happened to a QB sneak on short yardage ?

 

[Bryan1]

Why would I expect to see a flag for a late hit? cause it was on a UT player I guess.

 

[GVol1966]

Great call, just have weaklings up front

Our O line is the difference between going 0-8 in the sec and 4-4.

 

[bigdaddy]

Not a blame the refs guy bit I do t recall one penalty called on AU so far

 

[BigOrangeD]

Callaway, Jennings, and Chandler in the passing game from here on out.

 

[90 Vol]

I'm sick of hearing officiating excuses.

If we were a good team, officiating wouldn't mater.

Not excuses, we can see. Officials obviously can’t or won’t.

 

[1985Vols]

Run on the first play

Yep

 

[VOL_Lyfe]

ITS A RUN UP THE GUT ON FIRST DOWN

 

[NEVolFan]

There it is... run on first.

 

[PA Vol]

Woo positive rush yards!

 

[joevol33]

At least we gained a yard on that first run
