Recruiting Football Talk VIII

This is correct. Similar to a tipped ball on a pass, no protections for receivers when touched. Same is for when a quarterback fumbles.

The only thing still could have been possible hands to the face.

Exactly the same situation…but i just don’t see how that could have any bearing on a fumble happening by the player himself regardless.the ball is live and it belongs to anyone that picks it up..throwing a flag on that is equivalent to throwing a flag because he was at the bottom of the pile and someone accidentally puts a finger in his eye..it’s just something that happens during a scramble when the ball is fumbled..see what I’m saying 👀
 
I don't believe that in the least. That UT OL was struggling against that DL.

I think it's possible we could have dropped a few more touchdowns but it would have been risky, both increasing our chance of losing and possibly getting Nico hurt.

That run Nico made on the zone read definitely made me think there was a chance he could have taken over the game if we'd needed him to even with suspect blocking. Why take the risk though? They weren't coming back against our D.
 
Some Sunday thoughts from a guy that only shows up random now.

- CJH has grown as a coach. He didn’t allow this win to be snatched from his defense and ST. That Oklahoma defense was a perfect tune-up for Bama and Georgia.
- We have speed all over the field.
- We make other teams pay when they possess the ball. Hardest hitting team I’ve seen since 2002. This secondary HITS! These linebackers HIT! This DL is absolutely savage! The ST's are so aggressive! Our offense is physical!
- We have true leaders on offense (Mays) and defense (Pili) and it's so refreshing to see. They lead by example and flat get the job done.
- This team is unselfish.
- Our fanbase is a religion and Neyland is our cathedral. Volunteer fans are a different breed whether home or on the road.

Enjoy the bye week everyone. My boys are attending UCF (We owe a lot of thanks to UCF BTW) and hopefully will watch the Knights beat on Colorado next week. I will miss the Arkansas game the week after for good reason. I will be in France and will finally put my hands in the beaches of Normandy where my Grandfather landed and fought 80 years ago. I will be back for the Florida game. Love you all. Hug your families and appreciate all your blessings.
Post more, please.
