The elusive forward pass

 

[ABINGDON VOL FAN]

Good for them. I didn't see it posted and didn't notice it.

Just letting you know that other people felt the same way last year. That’s the kind of OL we need.

 

[Dudleys87]

Where will we be ranked Monday?

Well someone gave us a 3% chance of beating Alabama so the clear choice is T10 at least!

 

[MyVolsDropped]

No way we can compete with Pitt if we can't pass.

Its good to win but this has been one of the most boring games I've ever seen us play.

 

[DEFENDTHISHOUSE]

We're up 28-6 so...

My goodness.

 

[vol94]

Game is like watching paint dry.

But I will watch until the final whistle.

 

[Volbrando]

They don’t want to play him. There’s a ton of stubborn coaches that have their minds made up before the guys even start competing.

That was last years staff. Not this one

 

[willinhf]

Well…fact is our starters are still in there in the fourth quarter vs. Bowling Green. No good way to spin that. Our backups should have been in a position to be in the game halfway through the third quarter.

Defense looked a lot better in the third quarter.

 

[volbound1700]

If he is, he’s a fool. I’d rather see him come out and slaughter a lesser opponent and send a message to our future opponents.

Someone is arguing that on a general CFB thread that I am on. He thinks Heupel is hiding the playbook (and reality he is) for Pittsburgh since that is a very important game to make a bowl game.

 

[EODVOL]

I'm sold on him being average and close to being sold on him being our best option. He's not a Heisman contender by any means.

If his runs were impressive then yeah I would agree to being close to our best option, but his runs are just average. I wouldn't consider his running a game-changer in SEC play.

Then you haven’t watched a lot of Tennessee games

 

[IluvdoubleD's]

If Bg Beats UT I might duck for the first time ever.

 

[Putbacks]

Fallout from transfer portal-geddon…

 

[marvin616]

I'll never eat at Applebee's again as long as I live

 

[DaddyChad]

Lacks the intangibles.... not a great leader. Not a gritty competitor.

But does he have the tangibles….

 

[agVOL90]

It appears we are what we were.

Your short term memory issues are a blessing mate

Right ahead of Bowling Green

i guess it’s possible. We aren’t used to smart coaches around here

 

[Vol423]

The passing game is piss poor. Milton is a guy with a strong arm, but no touch or feel for the game. He also holds the ball way too low (not far above his waist) often, which causes his delivery to be slow.

 

[KB5252]

if milton is our best qb wth is wrong with bailey?

He was always overrated I'm afraid. It appears there was a reason others weren't pushing hard for him and he ended up here.

 

[give_him 6]

Agree. I thought he needed to come out and make a statement throwing the ball to spark recruiting. But what do I know.

 

[volmoon]

Shall we score this another flat first game of the season?

 

[66volfan]

We're up 28-6 so...

And the passing game has been nonexistent. When do you suggest we get game reps in the passing game?

Feels like 98.
