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

[KeyVol14]

We are getting beat by 21 and you consider that giving Bama a run for their money?

Seriously?

 

[House of Neyland]

All of this just to get beat by 3 TDs

Maybe 4 td’s Bama will try to get 50 and cover

 

[CA_Vol]

Winners find ways to win. We find ways to lose. Over and over again. 15 years of not making the plays to win.

 

[Powder and shot]

GBO

 

[Bigorange123]

Plenty of time

 

[Volaholic320]

Run whatever play you want on 1st and 2nd cause your guaranteed to get it on 3rd

Yeah, they seem to do weird plays on 1st, 2nd down but on 3rd down they decide to get serious

 

[C-south]

Especially to this trash.

They are on the decline

 

[volz2wallz]

Let's go offense and d 3 and out...let's try something new and blitz on 3rd down

 

[Hallie]

We are gassed now ...we just don't have depth or players Bama has or about half teams in SEC ...we gotta load up ...hope Heupel can recruit .. need more Jimmy's and Joe's ..

 

[kptvol1]

I don’t give a #%^* about the whole state of Alabama. Heck, I hate auburn because they’re in that state.

 

[JRich]

League needs to do something about these refs. Not asking for a lot, just a fair shake.

 

[TN1111]

We need two defensive coordinators. Tim Banks for 1st and 2nd downs. Another coach to call 3rd down. The last two weeks have been atrocious [on 3rd down].

 

[C-south]

Plenty of time

its over

 

[alavolfan]

That interception adds an unnecessary stench to an otherwise solid effort.

He’s played pretty good regardless of that. Rushing was pathetic.

 

[VolFreakJosh]

you should look up that definition before you spew stupidity. I knew this was a vulnerable
bama team. We did some things to show we could hang then turned right around and played and coached like blind morons.

So you knew Bama was vulnerable even though we were a 26 point underdog according to the experts?

We don’t have the talent to compete with Bama nor less beat them.

[VOL_Lyfe]

That might be the ugliest cheerleader I've ever seen. Damn.

they have different criteria now

 

[hardyemt_p]

Guys fight hard!!! We are definitely headed in the right direction. Gonna take a few recruiting classes for sure but I'm liking what I'm seeing from this staff!!

 

[LucidZ]

The moral victory crowd will be in full force. Bama may still end up covering.. Depth is bad. Too many mistakes but Bama isn't that good this year.

It was good effort by the guys, but I'm kinda tired of it just being that and no win to show for it.

 

[ABINGDON VOL FAN]

Let’s at least show some fight and get a score here

Yes.

 

[MississippiVOLS]

That was a BS pass interference call. The ball was uncatchable.

The announcers on ESPN are crazy Bama biased.

 

[Delmar]

So tired of being terrible year after year. I’m not sure why I keep putting in so much time into this crap.

Let’s be clear. We’ve been terrible. Not anymore. If you can’t see we are more competitive I can’t help you. No depth and the defense has finally worn down. I’m more optimistic about the future than at any time in the past 10 years.

 

[chuckb1448]

All of this just to get beat by 3 TDs

It's under the point spread, many bammers gona lose

 

[DEFENDTHISHOUSE]

They are on the decline

I’ve heard that song before.

 

[johnboyhunter]

Can’t beat ‘Bama & the refs...

Just have to accept that until we win consistently we won’t get the benefit on calls.

Refs has little to do with this game. Proud of this team but refs have not had any game changing impact here that would put us in a position to win.
