The Official Tennessee @ #4 Alabama Game Thread, 7:00 PM ET, ESPN

[VOL_Lyfe]

Beasley and Taylor this game makes Deion like Jack Tatum. Or should I say Kam Chancellor for the younger fans.

"The Assassin" ahhh, those were the days

 

[BJWeeks]

Offense is playing awful

 

[volmoon]

Where’s the false starts at I honestly haven’t seen a single movement

Both receivers were moving backwards at the snap.

 

[ibvolman]

What is up with the false starts? I'm not seeing anyone flinch before the snap

 

[Bryan1]

I guess Saban got in the refs ear and said "I'm not gonna flop and fake injury's to slow the offense down, what I want is for you guys to flag em with false starts every time the line up"

 

[Shakinthefat]

This is bs..not one replay of penalty

Fake news

 

[Jwalls]

I’m truly embarrassed to know this team plays at Neyland stadium. Which claims to be one of the loudest in the country.

We crumble like a bunch of pussies every time we have a little crown noise. False start after false start.

 

[theroyz71]

I may throw something if we get another false start penalty.

 

[TheMookieMonster]

You idiots are bïtching when we are out classed and manned ? We were spotted 25 by Vegas for a reason... This staff is getting the most out of these guys. The moment is big, so far we are going toe to toe with a heavy weight... Go VOLS

Losing the game is one thing. That's expected. The number of penalties and poor football IQ mistakes is worth getting upset about. Zero discipline tonight. What is this....6 false starts in one half? That's on the coaching staff, it has nothing to do with being out-manned. These are pre-snap penalties.

 

[BigALWiLson]

However not having Cade is killing our OL. And I wish some would bust HT's ass. He is a sellout b1tch. F*** the money at some point you gotta have some dignity and pride. Fake ass mfer. Cade 1 play lrvel his ass even if after the whistle. GO Vols

 

[TennVols12]

Think a draw play would’ve been nice there

Stop. It would’ve been blown up and you would’ve been asking why run it there? Just stop.

 

[etsuvol13]

Glad your self aware buddy. Kudos.

Why the hell are you even considering yourself a fan? You piss and moan more than anything on this site. Put down the coors trash.

 

[1world1love]

Can’t win in Tuscaloosa giving up cheap penalties.

 

[I Love Lamp]

Play call to rollout to the non throwing hand side is…..interesting.

 

[CPVOL]

I’ll just say this. We’re gonna open the playbook up second half and I see a horse. The man that rode him was death.

And hell followed with him

 

[DEFENDTHISHOUSE]

This is bs..not one replay of penalty

It’s Alabama.

 

[ACvol3]

Why are we complaining about the refs? Our penalties are all pre-snap.

Because nobody has seen half of them

 

[zeppelin128]

Where’s the false starts at I honestly haven’t seen a single movement

There hasn't been any movement as far as I can tell.

Of course they aren't showing replays either...

 

[UTK]

Huge mistake with clock management there. This is about to get nasty.

I liked it, didn't come out and play scared...but then I hated it because we chose to punt anyways. Make up your mind.

 

[WestTennesseeVol]

We can obviously move the ball, we’re just being stupid as all get out. If Bama scores here, I doubt we catch up.

 

[AllVols]

It's heartbreaking to see us stop ourselves so much.

 

[GAVol]

I understand that part but thought the other should have stopped the play

Ah… I think they let the play continue for illegal motion since by definition it has to be happening at the time of the snap.

 

[JonGrudensAgent]

Defense better bow up here and keep them off the board.

TD and them getting the ball in the second half and the flood gates will open

 

[kptvol1]

Flags are making us reactive, rather than proactive. We’re playing defense on offense.

 

[VolsFan-TX]

It was a wide open split down the middle and the whistle came in three or four seconds after the play started. Horrible.

We had players moving before the snap regardless of the timeliness of the whistle.
