Holy moly…compare what we watched yesterday to the last 2 calls in the Colts-Browns game. Officiating has lost all common sense.

Colts got jobbed

Yall talking crap crack me up.

The whole point about Kirby making it in year 2 is that he was doing what he was supposed to be with the roster he was given. He had been to Atlanta and was a QB change away from winning it all. There was reason for UGA to believe in him.

The only thing Heup has done is choked in every chance he's had to make Atlanta or the playoffs.

Your goal is obviously nothing more than to antagonize.

Guess CJH is your Rick Barnes at the moment. We know how much you love him.

Take a lap

Was Jaylen Wright average yesterday? Joe led the team in rushing and was sacked 3 times.

yep….. even with Hendon Hooker…. we struggled when we couldn’t run the ball.

That spot on 3rd down cost us the 4th down conversion. Not that it ultimately had an impact after the INT, but it was a garbage spot (not sure if reviewable, but).

Refs are just in general are awful at spots
But when you have time to spot (and it's reviewable?) then you have to do better. The one thing they got right was getting the clock right at the end of the first half. 21s vs 42s

That was the spot after the review. Originally, they gave us the first down.

 

[Devo182]

You are hitting on something I’ve been thinking. Every year Heupel has been at Tennessee, we’ve been within one score of Bama headed into the fourth quarter. That probably hasn’t happened three years in a row in 20+ years.

If you are unimpressed, just recall what the first three years in each of the Butch, Dooley and Pruitt seasons were like. And recall Heupel inherited a worse situation than any of them.

Also remember Butch's recruiting was tanking heading into Y4.

Heupel is only getting better at it.

I've said for the last few years the best way to fix this is to leave this corrupt conference. With expansion this league isn't what it used to be. Traditions are going by the wayside. There's not a better time to do it.

We can start our own conference, include teams like App State, Vandy, the two VA schools, Nc Stste, UNC, maybe Clemson and USCjr

 

[Devo182]

That was the spot after the review. Originally, the gave us the first down.

I meant it was still off.

We should have been inches short and it was spotted half or 3/4 of a yard. And...on 4th down we were short by just that much.

 

[clingerfelt1977]

Lol. I don’t ever post but this is becoming the “football forum”. Everyone here prides themselves on not being that. Let’s abide. The sky isn’t falling. Heupel is our guy. We sucked second half. We are ahead of schedule

And that wasn’t on you drvenner. Sorry if it looked that way. I was saying I support your view. Milton did plenty to win.

 

[KptVFL]

But what did he do last year when he had that talent?

Zero chance you are actually this dense!

The racketeering and corruption was at a truly historic level. It was a televised crime, not a football game.

 

[Devo182]

Yeah that’s very telling of why we are handicapped right now. On Joe Milton’s best day of his career he is just average.

Not anti-Joe, but I'm not sure this sentiment is inaccurate either...

Even at his best, he only put up 6.6 YPA. Hooker was nearly double that vs Bama, 12.8 YPA.

Not saying you have to be HH, but your best needs to 8+ YPA at mininum. An extra 80+ yards could have gone a long way to scoring more than just 20 pts.

Too many think this is just bad officiating. When they review it, double down on it, it's not just bad officiating. There's a motive behind it.

man it's hard to argue against it. it's week in and week out

 

[JCVol00]

All this is true. But UT has been significantly handicapped by scheduling and the NCAA investigation. And UT has had a lot of self-inflicted wounds that have made the program vulnerable. Now that the NCAA investigation is over, UT does not have to curry favor or accept things for the good of the conference. TSIO could go away-- and Bama with it. Most of all, UT needs to win. With winning comes power.

UT does have some support. You might be surprised-- or not-- to know which coaches would be our allies.

I feel like Kiffin is one of the allies you hinted at in the last line

I know kiffin is one.

 

[SpringBokVol]

Really surprised we didn’t fall further in the polls

 

[KPT_VFL]

One game at a time. Beat UK! GBO!

 

[Jackcrevol]

Really surprised we didn’t fall further in the poles

just to change up the discussion

 

[Smokey123]

Josh dobbs!!!

 

[VolsAgainstTheWorld15]

Lol the program inherited by Kirby was light years ahead of the dump Pruitt left behind. You’ve gotta be trolling.

Don’t hang out in the BB forum much, do you? Checkerboard had been trolling over there for years. It’s his M.O.

 

[VolsDoc81TX]

How can you even enjoy a win like that when you know deep down you were helped significantly by the clowns in zebra stripes?

They are used to it…it’s expected.

Really surprised we are not ranked above Alabama in national recognition and protest that the game was flagrantly rigged by the Birmingham Alabama Conference.
