WHY ARE WE RUNNIG THE BALL DOWN 27

Because we're down 27 and can't protect.

 

[ttocswob]

Crompton-esque throw by Chryst.

 

[rcrrcr]

worst play calling

 

[nomads-11]

OL just got handled tonight. And we continue to run it. I guess they're just getting it over with.

 

[T-for-Tennessee]

Our OL coach should be fired tonight.

 

[FlVols]

No offense at all. This is a shame of Tennessee football. I thought it was as low as it could get last year. Then this year came around...

 

[tnvols72]

Helton calling plays like Tn is winning.

 

[NYCVolunteer]

Helton is a loser. Trying to run the clock out instead of us giving us a chance to put points on the board.

 

[YorkVol]

Y'all ok? We are still here in ZZ13 and I just want to make sure none of you are heading to jump off the Henley bridge. Hang in there.

 

[JBSCTN88]

The officials are not the reason Tennessee is getting smoked.

Oh I agree, just do not want to blame the player's and tired of blaming the coaches each and every year. Just got to blame something anything...........

 

[GhostVol]

OK...... So the Chryst as a spark was a dud.

 

[jpope9]

Crompton-esque throw by Chryst.

in his defense, he had a gator wrapped around him

 

[Russdaddy2027]

We will not have a QB by the time we play KY and Vandy

 

[Freak]

I expected this team to be more fundamentally sound than they are at this point. Not only can our offensive line not block, sometimes it's like they don't know who to block.

 

[VolsLady-in-FL]

The circus show concerns me but what concerns me the most is the body language and energy of this team is like a team that has not bought into the new coach.

They probably don't like him. Because he actually wants to win. When you're used to leadership reps rather than actually practicing football, and then get a coach that wants to win.... Must be a difficult time. Not easy to transition from a mindest like that.

 

[volchile]

OUTCLASSED, By a weak azz Florida team.

 

[golfballs]

We’re a basketball school. Hopefully Fulmer doesn’t **** that up

 

[Bryan1]

I hope someone ask's Pruitt why we are tryin to run the ball when you are down 4 friggin scores.

 

[C-south]

Our O-line has been terrible for a very long time. Dobbs was able to hide it but we don’t have that luxury anymore. Someone tell our coaches.

 

[lexkyvol]

Oh hey we are down by 27.... Let's run the ball....

Edit: Better yet let's get into 3rd and 9 so they know to blitz.....

ah....now its ur guy at qb. now u upset. oh, okay! foh

 

[orangerush]

I thought it couldn't get worse than last year, but it has

 

[panhandlevol]

Helton is Debord 2.0 lol

 

[BentGrowinVol]

I don’t reply much but we suck

 

[tnvols72]

OL just got handled tonight. And we continue to run it. I guess they're just getting it over with.

OL has got handled every game this year

 

[MAUSERWERKE]

And yet we seem to always run up the middle. Our weakest spot. Makes no sense

I understand what you are saying. I have never coached. I don’t know. Do you install the system you intend to run and go with it, and recruit to it. or tailor your system to your personnel? I expect it’s a a combination. The reality is in the SEC if you can’t line up and run the ball you aren’t going to win.
