This loss is on Tim Banks

[Pmarav23]

It's senior day and hopefully senior day for Banks as well. Surely Huepel can see he is hindering the team

 

[G-boro Vol]

OC & DC are way below average in the SEC.

 

[volfeeva]

Got beat at ever facet of the game. Time of possession, first downs, total yards, etc. All season long opposing teams said our defense was soft and then proved it on game day. Vandy could score on every possession if they really wanted to

 

[Cincy_Vol]

Our oline is just trash today

 

[GhostVol]

HO-lee CRAP they're playing like they have a reason and they're GAINING YARDS!!!

Who's in charge of this clown car?

 

[JMSqb11]

The reminds me of 2012.

Naw this reminds me of 2016 and 2023 to be honest. 2012 was the staff and team completely imploding as we lost to Kentucky with a receiver playing QB.

This season is more losing to teams in blowout fashion that we were equal to or slightly better.

 

[Chimichanga]

I glad Danny White makes the decisions and not fans.

I not glad

 

[OrangeInKy]

Hot take .

 

[UTblood4life]

And the seat warms a lil

 

[Boston Vol]

Who is the best available defensive coordinator out there?

It would take a lot of money to get him here, but Ryan Walters would be a grand slam. Produced terrific defenses at both Missouri and Illinois. He’s in his first year at Washington and his them in the top 20. He was bad as HC at Purdue, but he’s a hell of a defensive coordinator.

 

[BigOrangeTrain]

OC & DC are way below average in the SEC.

 

[GhostVol]

Huh... line up quickly, snap. run play, gain yards

Let's not do THAT!!

 

[Dro]

I glad Danny White makes the decisions and not fans.

I didn't say anything about firing huepel, He has kept banks around despite having trash defenses year after year. it's huepels fault and noone else to blame.

 

[BigOrangeTrain]

Why not offer Vandys DC a ton of money?

 

[lukeneyland]

Banks has his good moments but damnit he’s not adjusted to anything this game

 

[TruthIsOutThere]

Yeah but… This is epically awful. We’re slow at LB and just not good at Safety.

Holy **** they are slow. I’ve never seen a team so slow to get to the edge.

 

[wrharvey21]

I havent been on the fire tim banks train, but this game has about put me on it. Horrid playcalling. Players not even in the position to tackle pavia.

 

[BigOrangeTrain]

The Head Coach is always number 1, it’s his program.

Wrong. These players are getting paid bout bucks now. It’s more their fault than Heupel. Individual effort has cost us games this year. As a player you have to have that want and desire to be great. That can’t be taught or coached up.

 

[BernardKingGOAT]

Yeah but… This is epically awful. We’re slow at LB and just not good at Safety.

Yeah, but running the offense so fast is a killer when you had a running back rush for 92 yards in the first half. Heupel did the same damn thing the second half. Hopefully he will figure it out. He knows more than me, but these newfangled offensive "gurus" are stubborn. White will address this I hope. Falcons lost a Super Bowl doing this same thing

 

[GAVol]

Holy **** they are slow. I’ve never seen a team so slow to get to the edge.

It seriously reminds me of some of those awful teams in the early 2010s.

 

[Boston Vol]

Wrong. These players are getting paid bout bucks now. It’s more their fault than Heupel. Individual effort has cost us games this year. As a player you have to have that want and desire to be great. That can’t be taught or coached up.

And who recruited those players that don’t give effort? Who continues to play those same players who don’t give effort?

 

[deezvols]

I blame VN’s wealth of armchair coaches who didn’t give our guys enough advice this week.

 

[Boston Vol]

It seriously reminds me of some of those awful teams in the early 2010s.

This second half is a replay of the 2012 Florida game.

 

[BernardKingGOAT]

Wrong. It’s 100% on Heupel. Pathetic. Not one area this team improved all year. Against quality opponents, his offense was a joke. The offense gave up multiple 3 and outs.

Yeah, should have ran the ball more. As .much as I hate to say it, Congrats to Vanderbilt on their first ever Citrus Bowl

 

[treecejc]

This loss is on Josh Heupel. He didn’t have his team fired up. They weren’t hungry for the win and playing with passion. It’s the coaches job to motivate players.
