Recruiting Football Talk VIII

[GoodTimeVol]

They were both incomplete passes.

By rule taking two steps and securing the ball by their TE should have been considered a fumble after the hit. Nothing in the rulebook suggests otherwise, but im not going to argue with low football IQ ppl on it. We still got outplayed yesterday so it wasn’t the biggest reason

 

[SoilVol]

I think it should be:
Oregon
Ohio State
*random order of* Texas, Bama, Vols, UGA, Ole Miss
Penn State
Indiana
Boise State
SMU
Miami

Thats my QB! Put on more steam Nico!!

 

[Dooby15]

We don't look like a playoff team.

Honest question, who from the SEC has consistently looked like a playoff team?

 

[OrangeMoundTNVol]

Nico will surpass him by a few TDs and few hundred

took last nights loss pretty hard.

I mean, uga is as vulnerable as they’ve ever been. They’re not that good. Top 3 backs missing. Top 3 receivers missing. Mash unit OL.

And they dominated us post first quarter.

It’s the kind of game that really makes me wonder if we’ll ever be elite again.

And I love me some Heupel, but I’m seriously doubting his system can win in the SEC.

He definitely need to add more wrinkles to it. Would be nice to have TEs run those skinny post routes down the seam. Ethan Davis would eat on those routes. He needs to mix it up more, our WRs are trash though.

 

[SoilVol]

Any chance Minnesota or Maryland could beat Penn St, that'd be cool.

Minnesota is a famously difficult place to play. At least within Big Ten circles. Kinda like South Carolina can be in the SEC. Sota fans take great pride in chances for upsets.

WRs and Oline need an upgrade next year

Nobody, everybody is ass.
There arent 12 good teams.

The Vols brand is a dynamic passing attack. It's what recruits come here for. Every great high school QB dreams of it. It's what every team feared from us.

We're 10th in the SEC in avg yards per game passing and 10th in TD's passing. That's not good. As Ron Jaworski used to say.. "Points come from the passing game."

 

[Devo182]

Good morning champions.

Beat Vandy and everything's in front of us. Lfg

 

[JacketVol]

Absolutely! Finishing with 11 wins and beating Bama for the second time in 3 years shouldn't be taken for granted.

But we have to make some changes to take the next step and keep the momentum going.

Keep stacking and developing talent

 

[SoilVol]

Penn Stats has not beaten Minnesota in Minneapolis since 2010 (few attempts - but they're 0-2 since 2010)

 

[Garren04]

Buy WR’s

 

[JacketVol]

You might embararass yourself. Why don't you go watch the 3rd and 25? He rushed 4 amd dropped everyone to the freakin' sticks. Its the most egregious defensive play calling I've seen since the 4th and 30 something he gave up to will levis at KY. Any defensive coordinator worth his weight in horse manure would have sent the house to not give him the 45min of pocket time to get the pass off he needed.

That was bad and the biggest thing is we just NEVER adjusted.

 

[volsagain]

Oh crap. I have realty root for Florida and OSU next week and mean it.

Texas takes out A@M there off the board.

 

[BearCat204]

Looks like as long as we handle business against Vandy we in.

 

[jave36]

Texas takes out A@M there off the board.

We need Texas to blow out the rest of their opponents or lose to aTm and uga or Bama in the champ game. We really don't want them having 2 losses. 1 or 3.

At some point in a 12 game season, you have games where both sides of the ball have to win the game. The defense has done it all year. The offense has to execute and not lay an egg in a half. That defensive call has worked hundreds of times- literally.

Ya”ll enjoy acting like you can do it. Have fun.

You drop near the sticks on third and long but not to them UNLESS it was 4th down. Malpractice to do it on second down. Don't defend it and show a lack of knowledge. It turned a 2 and 24 to a 3 and 9 even without the penalty.

How did you figure this?

 

[vol9799]

They were both incomplete passes.

The problem is that the rules are subjective, purposefully. I saw no replay that showed bobbling on either play (both receivers had the ball) but the time of possession was miniscule. 10-15 years ago, both might have been fumbles. Last night, neither was.

But irrespective of how we played, the obvious slant toward GA on almost every call is going to cause calls like those to be suspect.

 

[AllVol11717]

They did this all game. DL would get chipped and then go push an OL that was blocking a different DL. Why we didn’t start doing it is beyond me

 

[peaygolf]

Good luck. Ya'll be nice.

See ya after the game!

While we're at it. What happens if Georgia loses to Tech?

Tech can win that one if Haynes King plays. I give it a 30 percent shot. They almost beat a better Georgia team last year. Now, it will be in Athens but Georgia will not be as motivated as last night. They think they can walk over GT more than UT>
