In Regards to the Ryan Williams Holding

[cgrish]

100%

I actually thought it was simultaneous, and not offsides

 

[BigOrangeTrain]

Officiating has been terrible all year in the SEC. Best way to remedy that? Play well enough that those bad calls won’t matter.

 

[BigOrangeTrain]

Bama fans want to talk about bad calls that go against them but ignore all the bad calls or no calls in their favor.

In all fairness, many TN fans do that on here. All fan bases do it.

True. We are guilty of that too.

SEC refs suck a$$

I actually thought it was simultaneous, and not offsides

I don’t care if it was or wasn’t. It was close enough that it wasn’t called. Beating Bama is good enough for me. I’m not trying to pick it apart.

 

[Chad Powers]

It didn’t look offsides to me from the stands, but I know perspective can be different depending on where you are. He just looked like he blew right off the line like a freight train.

 

[S.C. OrangeMan]

The hold called on Brazzell irritated me

That one was clearly initiated by the D.
At worst, it should have been offsetting and replay the down.

 

[wmcovol]

The blown offsides call that resulted in a sack might very well have been the biggest play of the game

Pearce was clotheslined by their RT the play before.

 

[GetYouSomeofThat]

you guys cry about anything. Lots of flags last night. If I’m not mistaken more on bama than us. The only call that I thought was blatant bs was the offsides call where we moved laterally. Now go through and find some TN holds that didn’t get called. Bet you could find some.

Did you think Milroe got that first down on 4th and 1?

 

[WoodsmanVol]

Wow, this thread was, uh, informative. I suppose the, uh, theme should be:
I don't like you
But I love you
Seems that I'm always
Thinking of you
Oh, oh, oh
You treat me badly
I love you madly
You've really got a hold on me
You really got a hold on me

I know they give leeway and rarely call it now but every big play I'm screaming at the tv for our ends to get back because it looks like they are lining up in the neutral zone. Fall back a tiny bit please. They could call us for offsides whenever they want and eventually it's going to bite us and negate a huge defensive play. The last one is from the Milroe pick. Too close for comfort for me.

Hell no

Black line isn’t perfectly accurate

 

[wmcovol]

Every game Bama loses, there’s always an excuse. Never is it, “we got beat”

 

[EastTNVol6240]

Did you think Milroe got that first down on 4th and 1?

I don’t. Did you see us lined up in the neutral zone nearly every play? Point being there could be more or less penalties on every single play.

 

[Dr H Lecter]

Unless I “misremembered “ , I was drinking, the play clock had gone to zero at the snap, and he timed it perfectly.

 

[Jpcisco]

Black line isn’t perfectly accurate

I know it's not, but the ends are always ahead of the DT's. Maybe it's the way we line up. If a neutral zone exists, we are lining up in it or dangerously close. As a fan it makes me nervous every time I see it.

We got away with some stuff too from what I remember. Who cares we won

Y’all both completely missed OP’s point. Bama fans have been complaining about Williams being held, when there were missed calls both ways. OP isn’t griping about calls, but rather pointing out their silliness.

Some of you here were part of the X-Files conspiracy group The Lone Gunman, right?

2 of these would have produced 2 points. Go find the offsets on us…… Seriously you enjoy this troll gig?

 

[VAVol85]

To be clear, our plan is to pretend like Pearce wasn’t offsides, right?

So fast he distorted time so it looked like he jumped early…obviously.

I didn't like the face mask call on us when the Bama dude has his hands all up in the the Vol's grill first. At the least should have been called on both.

Yeah, like the choke-block on Tyler Baron last year on a touchdown that turned the game around. Clear as day. You can't see the highlight without seeing the hold.

 

[knoxvol52]

IF the Officials done their jobs correctly. There would be a penalty on either side of the ball on almost every play.

Officials pick&Choose when they throw the flag, it's been that way for 40 years or more.
