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

[Caz]

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

We could maybe play with them if we didn’t commit all these penalties.

 

[lilesrt]

The defense cant breathe. Our offense is impotent!

 

[wmcovol]

Players have to grow up. Presnap penalties have nothing to due with talent. It’s concentration.

 

[TennVols12]

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.

Since when is a false start the coaches fault? Lol

 

[House of Neyland]

And our current recruiting class is ranked 11th in the SEC.

 

[brubaker]

I like Hueple a lot, but the offensive coordinator play calling in the 2nd quarter was Sheet.. We were ripping them apart with the passing game, then back to conservative crap

 

[GoVolunteers]

Considering he didn't move on either of them...

Might want to run that back and look

 

[Orange defense]

I’ll agree that some of these calls are bad.

 

[LucidZ]

It was like, oh Tennessee has a guy open down the middle, blow the whistle, BLOW THE WHISTLE!!
GBO!!

I know, getting ridiculous really. They are trying their best to stop us.

 

[Shakinthefat]

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

You watching on a Sanyo 4D ultra vision premier Costco TV, or you down on the sidelines?

 

[Volsfannn]

What's on him? The fact we are giving Bama a game as half time when you had everyone expecting a complete boat racing. That is on Heupel.

He's play calling to keep it close, f____k that, play call to win. Should at least go deep once every drive. The only deep throw they tried look what happened

 

[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

Dammit. In the 8 seconds it took to type that we have back the ball. Holy chit man wtf

 

[SlipKidVol]

We are getting the shaft

 

[chad954ut]

We're going for it every 4th down?

Can't stop them anyway, funny guy

 

[TennVols12]

Why was that not a QB keep with a 5 man box

JUICE! What’s up buddy

 

[Other_Guy]

the crowd. it's only noise.

Most teams don't struggle with noise in Neyland as badly as this team does at lesser stadiums. No excuse.

 

[chattavol420]

Nobody will ever convince me that if we just drop back and pass every play we wouldn’t have 35 points right now. They can’t stop us. But we’ve run the ball 75% if the time for an average of like 0 yards per carry. I just don’t get it. Why don’t we do what works until they prove they can stop it

 

[ALStateLineVol]

We have to be the hardest team to watch. So predictable . We always choke. Bama has handed us a first half lead heading into half and we handed it right back. We are so bad on 3 rd down defense

And our 3rd down offense isn't exactly moving the chains

 

[VolsFan-TX]

Losing some respect for coach with these stupid ass punts. Dafuq are we doing

? We shouldn’t punt or you are mad about the 3rd calls?

 

[nomads-11]

I'm not sure I see the purpose in going fast, clock wise and otherwise with 2:20 or so left. Your defense isn't a wall or anything.

 

[Powder and shot]

We are hangin with the taterdiggers. Get behind your team. The curse is broken! GBO!

 

[SpecialKVolfan20]

Bob Kessling-first down
Actual play-3rd and 3 WTH???

It has everything to do with Kids that arent up to these standards. Pruitt recruited... Yeah theres some talent but not much. It is also the big stage. Sh1t happens sometimes kids make mistakes.

 

[etsuvol13]

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.

I'm truly embarrassed by "fans" like you. Put your texting finger back up your back side.

 

[ACvol3]

Zero reason to hurry up there and to roll the pocket

Trying to catch them off guard.. it’s what this offense does.
