Recruiting Football Talk VII

[Hardy]

Blaming Milton for this game is idiotic.

 

[JCVol00]

Joe Milton has no football IQ, and it was obvious today, especially on the final few drives.

 

[mrMet]

Was Hadden out for some time?

Sounded like he may have been banged up.

Yes. He was out when slaughter caused the pick in endzone

 

[SoilVol]

We didn't suck today. We played our best in the first half. Our limitations were exploited in the second (including targeting injured positions like tackle and corner).

We just played Bama in Tuscaloosa. Teams aren't supposed to play well in Tuscaloosa.

We lost a game we were supposed to lose, learn and move on. Take it out on Kentucky and Georgia.

Penn state and Tennessee are twins. Choke when it matters.

Tell that to Tennessee last week? Or last TSIO?

What?

PSU is in year infinite. JH is in Y3 during a rebuild Sack up, boy.

 

[jakez4ut]

I'm gonna choose to focus on the positives. And there were many.

But I'm probably gonna wait till tomorrow to do it.

The scoop score sucked.

 

[JCVol00]

Coaching was terrible, everything was terrible in the second half

 

[OrangeMoundTNVol]

I'm sorry but Joe is an idiot

When I saw him on the bench with that blank stare in the 3rd quarter, I knew we were doomed

he played good enough to win….. not having a running game killed the offense

OR OR OR (listen to this) stopping their running game would’ve killed their offense. And guess what we didn’t do

 

[UpstateVol613]

Coaching was terrible, everything was terrible in the second half

2nd half stats back up your statement.

 

[JCP201]

Never expected to beat Bama but got my hopes up in the first half. Watched blatant holding, while refs called ticky crap on us. You are never going to be able to beat Bama and refs at their home. Don't know why I got my hopes up. I will say Milton looked much better. Wish we could get the running game and passing game on the same page.

 

[TheMookieMonster]

Joe Milton was far from the problem in this game imo.

You’re correct, but this season is “over” and we’re not going to Atlanta so I’d prefer to watch Nico. Heupel won’t do it. But this offense ain’t getting any better.

[Fun coupon VOL]

defense came out and gave up 2 plays for a TD and struggled to get stops from there….. plenty of blame to go around

Gave up 7 in the first half. Multiple three and outs. The game should of been put away then.

 

[Devo182]

So glad I can't bet.

Bama beating the spread by the end of the game must have been 9:1 at minimum by halftime.

Absurd 2nd half.

 

[mrMet]

Morale of the story:

Bama made adjustments at half
Vols didn’t and we sucked

A bunch of you I genuinely think have 3 brain cells and deserve to watch Butch Jones Vols’ teams on repeat while you live in a nursing home

 

[volbeast33]

Was Hadden out for some time?

Sounded like he may have been banged up.

yeah he was out for a time

 

[BigSteve09]

So glad I can't bet.

Bama beating the spread by the end of the game must have been 9:1 at minimum by halftime.

Absurd 2nd half.

We were -7.5 and they had 3:1 odds to win at half

 

[volbeast33]

OR OR OR (listen to this) stopping their running game would’ve killed their offense. And guess what we didn’t do

true but i was talking about our offense

 

[UpstateVol613]

So glad I can't bet.

Bama beating the spread by the end of the game must have been 9:1 at minimum by halftime.

Absurd 2nd half.

I think I saw Iowa vs Minnesota ended up being the under…that’s crazy.

Yup.

 

[JacketVol]

Only Comment: THEY grab and mug WRs all game. NOT CALLED. 1 Penalty for 5 yds tells you all you need to know. You can put this on Milton all yall want to but if receivers can't physically run routes if there's no penalties called. OL holds on edge runs. NOT CALLED. UT will finish either 9-3 or 10-2 depending on the UGA game. Don't care about all of your bitching and moaning about OUR players and coaches. GO FREAKING VOLS

And the one penalty THEY HAD TO CALL cause of illegal snap. I don’t even want to spend money on tickets and going when the outcomes are decided. They held on the line and the receivers and screw the SEC. We destroy their offense if they were not allowed to hold every time they went back to pass.

 

[Vols4us]

Out coached. Out talented. Next up, Kensucky, a season defining game for this team.

[Fun coupon VOL]

If we had last years defense with this team, we would be 2-5.
