The Official Tennessee @ Vanderbilt Game Thread, 4:00pm ET, SEC Network

[Dallasbowlin]

I love the announcers acknowledging the fans,we really have a great fanbase

 

[BruiserVol]

As 05 and 08 taught us, you can't simply defend your way to victory if your offense is a dumpster fire.

And the last few years we had bray, hunter, Patterson, Rogers, so on and so forth and the defense is what held us back. We just can't seem to field a complete team.

 

[LakeMaryFLVol]

Playing the ol prevent offense

 

[mamavol97]

OMG TN keeps shooting themselves in their foot....WTH

 

[dduncan4163]

How many times is Jake going to run that WR screen before he realizes it isn't going to work?

Hell if I know. It has only worked on Ky and Chatt. Just run the damn ball

 

[Vol737]

How many times is Jake going to run that WR screen before he realizes it isn't going to work?

Oh, give him a chance...at least three more times. Stupid after the first ten times got zero yards.

 

[VolFootballlover]

The lack of creativity in play calling makes me wonder if they really want a bowl

 

[Flipdaddy]

Play action to the TE. It's open 75% of the time!

 

[volinduval]

I see we're doing the "run a screen against 2 defenders with 1 blocker that hasn't been successful the previous 10 times".

This is why, Bajakian. This is why.

Be careful, they're going to say you're not a coach and you don't know what you're talking about.

 

[Blackburn]

I think we should probably throw another WR screen right here.

 

[jblank]

How many times is Jake going to run that WR screen before he realizes it isn't going to work?

You're assuming he'll EVER realize that.

 

[PA Vol]

Lol. I heard them say we have bowl scouts in the crowd tonight. Made me sick to my stomach. Must be shaking their heads.

On a positive note, the visiting team has filled the home teams stadium. Makes us look good traveling wise.

Money is all that matters. We will sell out a bowl game in Tennessee or nearby.

 

[CarbonVol]

How about 1 pass to the tight end?

Alex Ellis has been gold

 

[DEFENDTHISHOUSE]

I just want a win. Don't care how!

This.

 

[fade route]

Thanks AJ Johnson

He still could be completely innocent

 

[90 Vol]

Please stop passing. We can't pass block. We would be better off running the zone read and wildcat the rest of the game.

 

[dduncan4163]

I just want a win. Don't care how!

You and me both man

 

[BJSforVols]

So the screens aren't working at all. Let's keep trying !

Well, they have been better than the vertical pass plays.

 

[T-for-Tennessee]

at this point, I'm calling for a fake field goal on 2nd down. it's the only thing we've done right in a couple of weeks.

 

[CarbonVol]

You're assuming he'll EVER realize that.

Probably as many times as he runs that's stupid jet sweep

 

[tnvols72]

So the screens aren't working at all. Let's keep trying !

There's a lot of plays they keep running that don't work.

 

[Ernest T. Vol]

Removing the crap from Volnation? jk

gonna need a bigger shovel

 

[GLDunlap]

Bajakian needs to swallow his pride and just tell Dobbs to run the ball every down.

oh well

 

[Bloodrunsorange27]

Uh oh Bajakian. The deep passes into double coverage didn't work. Better go back to lateral passes that don't work.

 

[agent|orange]

Why we haven't utilized the tight ends I don't know

We have tried.

Dobbs just airmailed the pass(es).

What we're seeing tonight is the culmination of effort between piss poor playing and piss poor playcalling.
