A&M has run 71 plays to our 26. Time of possession is 39 to 12.

Both lines are getting whipped. We’ve had stupid penalties keep drives going.

This is not a close game, but it will be spun that way.

Fire his @$$.

 

[CA_Vol]

Absolutely pathetic.

 

[VolsSportsFan]

It's definitely not as close as the score. Basically TAMU has stopped TAMU.

The defense is bad. Really bad. I don’t see it getting any better next season.

 

[GreveHaller]

you'd expect a coach with extensive defensive background to have a team that can tackle (not two hand touch) and not leave a WR open every f____g play. We dont.

 

[volKano]

we were so close.

I’m mean, this has to be the most glaring rationale for firing this rube, right? His defense is getting worse, not better. If he can’t make the defense work, why the hell should we keep a defensive coach???

How could anyone spin this as a close game?

 

[northknoxvol]

It has felt like garbage time for quite a while

 

[Hacksaw11]

Slow and painful death watching this team. Being dominated and abused

The only offense he’s held in check is his own.

Oh just you wait.

So true

Exactly...we have not even had possession of the ball for a quarter...a single quarter....

 

[deezvols]

UT football is depressing and utterly boring to watch

Watch em try. It was an 11 point game in the 4th quarter. Blah blah...

 

[MurphyVol]

Someone like Clemson would pound A&M. They're a fine team but they just nickel and dime you to death. Against a poorly coached team like us they make it look easy.

I was laughing when I read this and then I saw someone in another thread say it would be competitive if it wasn’t for 1 false start penalty. VN never ceases to amaze me.

 

[imavolfan]

This team does just enough to keep me watching with hope even though deep down I know what’s going to happen.

 

[CA_Vol]

500 yards given up by the D and 18 yards rushing for our offense. What a joke.

 

[GreveHaller]

we tackle like we're playing Upward Bound football

TAM shows why you pay big for a good coach.
Cheap coaches are not a bargain.

Personally.......I think they're going to lose ground. If you're losing your entire OL and QB after this year, you're asking to replace a lot. This was their year.....looks like they'll have a chance to get in the CFP discussion. At this point Clemson needs to boat race ND to have a chance. We will see tonight.
