Hate to be Worley right now

I am surprised he made in through the 4th quarter. After his head hit the ground they kept showing shots of his eyes being glazed over. I thought he was down for the count.

Only things I really can fault Worley with are the long pick 6 and not keeping the ball a few times on the option.. There were times when it looked like he could've at the very least picked up a first down.. Other than that, I'm proud of him..

There defensive front seven exposed our OL as anyone with common sense knew would happen.. I have a feeling OU's front seven will do this to many teams this year..

Better days are ahead for the VOLS... Much better..

His brains were scrambled eggs. I was impressed he could even stand by halftime. That pass rush and Striker were making our line look like it is FBS level.

The Pick six was just terrible play calling. Going 5 wide within the 5 yard line is so easy to defend with zone coverage I wouldn't do it in a video game.

Worley can hold his head high. For the amout of pressure he was constantly under last night he showed amazing poise and self control. He may not be the best qb to ever play the game but he sure is one of the tougher ones I've seen, and I'm damn glad he's our guy.

I am proud of the performance Worley gave us last night. He has changed his game dramatically from last year. Worley threw 2 picks in OU'S endzone in the 4th quarter, neither were his fault. The first one hit Croom in his hands. The second was a pre-snap read called from the sideline that is returned 100 yards, that's a 14 point swing right there. We were inches away from being down 27-24 in the fourth quarter.

Nobody with two-licks of sense is blaming Worley for last night.

For that matter, within the team, I'm sure he went from being "the leader" to being "The Man." It was one of the toughest performances I've seen from a UT QB since Shuler / Bama 92.

Absolutely. He gained some serious respect from his team and coaches last night, I'm sure, as well as the fan base.

It's clear why he's the starter. He's one tough hombre.

Worley showed poise amid the pressure and made good downfield reads.i'm proud of the team not looking rattled or deer in headlights look.

I'm absolutely amazed he managed that pressure as well as he did. I mean, allowing that many sacks is unreal, but it could have seriously been a record breaking night for OU in that department if Worley wasnt getting the ball out quick and eluding rushers.

We also had 2 sacks erased by penalty

Dunno man. Clausen played with a broken collar bone. I'd have to rank that in there somewhere.

I was on here quite a bit last night after the game. Granted I didn't hit up every thread or read every post, but the Worley criticism was very little. The media is giving him props too.

I hope you never complain then. This kind of example is ridiculous...so we aren't allowed to complain or ever feel sorry for ourselves because someone somewhere has it worse than us? The severity of the problems of others has no impact on the personal experience of lesser problems.

JW isn't the only Vol that's going to be hurting bad for a few days.

I'll guarantee you that our kids grew up alot last night and by the time we play UGa these young men will be ready to rock.

You can bet you'll be hearing the name Striker on Sundays, that guy's a beast with a motor that never quits or gets tired.

buTch will get us a couple like him trained up soon too.

There was ZERO quit in our Vols for 60 minutes and that alone is a huge step in the right direction.

I'm proud of our kids and the future is going to be awesome!

If this thread were posted on Ebola Nation.com, Volunteer Hillbilly's comment might have some merit.

As it is, he set dumb-ss hillbillies back 25 years with that comment.

Really? This is the 2nd stupid post I've read from you in the last 5 min. Don't really know what else to say except that it would seem that you are a douchebag.

The most horrible call of the night IMO. 3rd and 2 for the 1st down and a couple more for a TD. Keep it on the ground and get either the TD or 1st down for 3 more tries. If not go for the FG. OC makes the worst outcome a possibility and then the truth. I almost puked up my Rum!

I haven't seen one post that blames Worley for the loss. This is just another thread bashing other posters for no real reason.

There were posts in one thread early this morning stating he forced the ball and his 2 picks were big reasons we were beat. They actually stated we would have possibly been tied with OKU if he wouldn't have turned the ball over. Another thread stated his lack of being able to run the ball well was an issue. I don't make this stuff up. I have no reason to bash fans unless they deserve it! Trust me, like other schools we have some ignorant people that talk out of their butts and don't understand the game. Just not in the mood this morning for any blame to be placed on this kid after such a tough performance!!!! I will not pin point the threads because that will bring the posters into the conversation for a fuss. I am not starting trouble just hoping the kid might read our compliments and praise for him.
