The Official Tennessee vs. Purdue Music City Bowl Game Thread, 3:00 PM ET, ESPN

Especially considering that it’s a NFL stadium. It’s always this way late in the season though. Just switch to turf.

I mean. We did have a monsoon yesterday in regards to the weather.

 

[LieutenantNeyland]

We are wearing the molded cleats which are lighter and the players love them more. What we need for tonight is the old school cleats where you can screw in the long cleats.

 

[kiddiedoc]

Field is hot garbage.

I think it's hurt our playmakers' ability.

 

[Volnbeers]

Lmao what the hell was that random vaxx commercial with a bunch of 3rd string television crews

 

[VolunteerCeltic]

Jordan Rodgers would have thrown for 350 on this secondary

 

[bjg]

Okay ,where is Tennessee ? Neither offense or defense have showed up , plus its easy to see who the refs are pulling for !

 

[Caz]

So sloppy. Penalties and then more.

 

[cobbwebb0710]

I honestly think we don't have the right cleats. This field is a crapburger. Should be an embarrassment to the stadium crew and bowl.

Or our equipment manager.
GBO!!

 

[mpfvol]

like 3 false starts today

 

[tnvols72]

longer the game goes on the worse they look

 

[Other_Guy]

The defense is so weird. They're terrible but how many times have we said they're keeping the O in the game?

 

[Volaholic320]

False start after the timeout. Ugh

 

[BreatheUT]

Funny how some are more worried about the announcers than the play on the field in a 1 point game.

 

[Memphisvol87]

Bruh

 

[Volnbeers]

Need the 6 inch spikes.

That’s what she said

 

[AustinMem]

Oh FFS, is the real game to see who can screw up and try to lose this game the most?

 

[tbones0711]

cant run the ball but continue to call running plays

Stupid man......throw flair passes or screens. NCAA regulates cleat size so no advantage to either team. UT coaches should be well aware of . This is a sloppy field. A lot of factors weigh-in. This won't be a glamorous win and I'm not sure we can win. Throw 50-50 balls to Tillman is our best chance. Funny how our coaches refuse to go back tp what was working just like Barnes last night. Heupel won't bring a championship to K-Town.

 

[volmoon]

12 penalties

 

[hUTch2002]

Now that’s how you handle short yardage! Nice push!

 

[Voltopia]

One of the biggest criticisms of Heupel at UCF was the high number of penalties per game his team averaged. It would be nice to see him shake off that distinction. To say nothing of being necessary to win in the SEC.

 

[DC_Vol]

Funny how some are more worried about the announcers than the play on the field in a 1 point game.

The play makes the commentary more annoying.

 

[advancedrescue27]

no wonder the titans have historically struggled. This field is a joke.

 

[MAD]

We need to bring out the illegal cleats we used against the Buckeyes.

 

[Caz]

This flipping crap has to be stopped

 

[W.TN.Orange Blood]

Good God .... more freaking players are flopping.
