Recruiting Football Talk VII

This game was identical to last year’s Georgia game

Set up very poorly for us

Night game

On the road in a place we’d don’t play well

Nothing but excuses. Excuses. That's what every team faces and still find a way to win if they are better and better prepared.

I will wait for @Ulysees E. McGill to come collect his told you so's, not that that makes the result any better for him or anyone else. Pretty much all of his concerns and reservations have been validated.

Haha I mentioned him 2 times in game that the fix was on I hate to give his negative ass credit but he nailed it

Milton actually played pretty darn good in the 2nd half and made some incredible throws. He's not Hendon Hooker. He also needs a clean pocket, which he had last year but hasn't had this year. The offensive line, imo, is the biggest problem on offense and it's becoming more and more apparent. We have to have Cooper Mays back.

Secondly, it finally looks like the offense woke up and played to their potential at times in this game. And there was quite a groove in the 2nd half. We need to start like that against South Carolina instead of coming out flat and out-of-sync.

You hope to get into that rhythm in the first two games but obviously didn't happen. Still a long season with redemption possible.

I HATE the University of Florida

 

[mrMet]

Also our offense was cooking when they ran THE OFFENSE and not piddling around with screens

FascinTing ain’t it

 

[Revived2002]

You honestly think our team had any resemblance of a well-coached team tonight?

Crowd, opponent, refs all played a role

Everything was against us and we don’t have the elite level talent at all levels to overcome it

Coaches / culture kept it from being a 51-10 blowout

Deion's son with the pick six. Come on Rams!

 

[VolNRaleighNC]

Colorado is gonna become Thug U and be like Miami of late 80s/early 90s

 

[Vols2DaWall]

That game was exactly like UGA last year. We got our asses whipped when the game mattered. Florida went Uber conservative in the 2nd half with their injured QB.

I understand, but still believe the coaches need to be held accountable, since this is their job. Again, I support the coaching staff, but Tennessee wasn't ready to play tonight, especially that first half, very, very poor effort. Again, I agree they did not quit but you have got to be disciplined and avoid these costly mistakes and penalties.

No, Napier shutting down the passing game for most of the 2nd half kept it from being a blowout.

 

[KPT_VFL]

And WHY did Cooper Mays travel.

He should have played… you don’t dress and not play. Team got cocky and thought they’d have it in the bag.

 

[MoCo_Vol]

I want to see the offense score on every possession next week. Have got to get it rolling for a full damn game.

 

[SpringBokVol]

I can't wait to hear the narrative in two years - vols can't win in Gainesville. It's been 22 years, blah, blah, blah.

 

[Jimmy Football]

Deion Sanders looks so stupid on the sidelines of a night game with sunglasses on.

He needs them to keep track of the visions in his eyes.

 

[BigOrange15]

It’s our offense. Milton is doing what he’s taught. Come on, guys. When they play 5/6 in the box, we run or throw wide and short. It’s not a trust problem.

Milton is definitely not doing what he has been taught, thats been one of his primary issues.

 

[JCP201]

Nope

No need to turn on the coaches

Team fought hard

We won an Orange bowl last year with those same coaches

Why would anyone turn on Heupel who took us to a New Years six game, had us at number one and beat Bama last year?

People are complete fools

 

[SoilVol]

If they don't trust Milton to do anything besides hand the ball of and throw screens, then they need to just play Nico and get it over with. This looks nothing like how this offense is supposed to look.

You know Joe Milton threw almost 300yds and 2 TDs right? You did see the downfield passes and moving the chains repeatedly on intermediate throws?? right?

 

[85SugarVol]

No question we grab that first down

There is absolutely Zero way you can know that. No question about that.

It was better in the 2nd half, for sure.

Momentum was in our favor - they killed it with their utter stupidity

You don’t get credit for not losing by 41 points to an unranked team lol. Sure all of that played a role and we rolled over like a pig. Good coaching would maybe have the team prepared to play

He wears his sunglasses at night so he can so he can

Good thing we won’t be playing that game in two years

I will be glad when it is an every four year affair

I’m done with that “rivalry”

 

[85SugarVol]

We had ALL the momentum. ALL of it. That’s what’s awful about it

Oh it was horrible. But the game was lost over the course of 4 qtrs
