What was the cause of the two instances UT players were fighting and pushing one another?

Was painting durning the game and could only listen. Why does JCjr always seem to be the issue?

Campbell making a stupid personal foul penalty was the cause. Bonehead.

We keep shooting ourselves in the foot over and over. Been this way all year and hasn’t improved. Campbell and Heard have consistently been guilty, but several defensive linemen have hurt us as well. Playing clean football would be nice.

Vandy losers acting like punks, trying to get our guys to react. Refs let them get away with it and the result was predictable. Ridiculous.

No. That was 100% Campbell being a moron.

I agree and we are NOT going to win three games in the playoffs with penalties like this. No way and I agree it’s not getting better

I wasn't addressing the Campbell play specifically, but I agree he was solely to blame for losing his cool. That doesn't change the fact that the refs failed to control the game. It was almost inevitable that someone would be hurt and even when it happened (Squirrel) they STILL didn't throw a flag.

Should have been a flag but does Squirrel get hurt every game ?

 

[Misplaced Vol]

Not sure, but I think Vandy may have been trying to hurt our players when they saw they couldn't beat us.

Not hurt necessarily, but they were frustrated and they got chippy. Refs should have done a better job of controlling some of that, IMO.

I may be wrong but I don't believe he got back into the game. Good. Coaches need to clean this up. It's happened too many times over the last few years.

It was inexcusable, especially for a 7th year player.

This topic was addressed in the post game podcast show on VQ and Eric Cain said that Tennessee will always have a lot of penalties and that the staff and players need to clean it up,

Then we did. Who's the numbnutz now?

This... Not condoning the behavior, but I think he had a problem with the way the Vandy defender did D Samp.

Gosh, I didn't know there was going to be a quiz. Gee, let me see...

Uh, you?

He’s been banged up w/ a shoulder for more than half the season . He probably shouldn’t be playing

 

[imavolfan]

Got a text about this but had stepped away when it happened. They said Campbell mowed over 3 Vandy defenders. At what point in the game did this happen?

Ahh yes the refs again

A flag doesn’t really fit the crime for how Squirrel was injured. Vanderbilt thinks they have to try to ruin things for us if they can’t beat us. The kids themselves don’t really have reason for hateful behavior, so I say their alumni (especially Coach Lei) are to blame for the thuggish antics.

It’s a shame that two years in a row it’s been played this way. The refs need to stop worrying about pampering Pavia and watch the rest of the field.

Uh oh! It’s “PeeWee league ref” here to blame the kids for not being able to adapt to officiating quirks..

Are you sure it was the refs? Or espn, or the NCAA? Or was it the SEC and Sankey? Gotta be one of the boogeymen right?
