If We Get Fined for the Fake Injury....

[VolsSportsFan]

Watch the replay, he’s visibly limping before ever looking to the sideline and didn’t return the series.

If that's a limp then I've been limping for about 30 years.

You should have that checked out.

When did he come back in the game? I noticed he was still out a few plays later.

Not for the rest of the possession. Not sure after that.

Rules are Rules, and this one happens to be a good one. If we faked the injury (which, from the stands, it sure looked that way), we deserve what we get.

Agree...it looked like they kept him on the sidelines w/ the medical staff for the obligatory medical examination for validity purposes. That was pretty obvious to me, and not a good look.

Punishment will be to watch 8 more quarters of this confusing offense.

don’t watch it then?

Us being the first getting fined for faking an injury when it all began against us would be one of the most TN things ever

 

[CABVOL]

If we did that's very disappointing. Didn't think TN coaches would stoop to that level.

Have you not watched our XP’s since Heupel has been here?

It was an obvious flop and embarassing

I’m not even 100% sure it was a fake injury. He was visibly limping before going down. They’ve always coached you just to go down if you are hurt rather than trying to rush off the field and get caught subbing. Not anything serious, but may have been cramping.

Yeah he was limping. It looked like a hip injury. Not saying it didn't benefit us for him to get injured there, but there's probably enough of a gray area though that we won't get fined.

I don't remember seeing him come back.

Like when the offense subs and the official stands over the ball until the defense subs even if they’re slow rolling it? How many times have we had to burn a timeout or take a delay because the other team took their sweet time? Or not being able to review a play after the ball is snapped or especially after a play has been ran?

One time? Some of yall are so self righteous you ignore what we do all the time

Ever notice that protecting our kicker on extra points is costly because of so many injuries? Just saying.....

You got teams doing it every week and if Tenn gets fined for it it’ll be a joke.

Why would it be a joke when he looked the sideline then went down?
