Georgia Tennessee feels similar to Michigan Ohio State in the Harbaugh era

Tennessee keeps losing the game, and some fans want to blow up the program

We just got to keep coming back, year after year. This thing will turn. I have no doubt about that.

So do we start getting the videos of the opponents signals? Or wait for the coaching staff to set it up?
I figured that an anonymous package left on a coaches doorstep could be the best way.
That way, it’s untraceable.
No university credit cards are tied to the operation.
There’s a Vol in every location that the team will need the signals from. Just a matter of coordination. If it’s 20+ different people then it’s really next to impossible to track it. Just wear a generic color shirt that matches your assigned team’s primary color. Should never ask a VFL to wear another team’s logo.
With the helmet communication, it is a tougher assignment. But most players look to the sidelines for the play call therefore the enemy is still sending in signals.


Just a thought.

Just a few years ago I went into each season just hoping we could sweep uscjr, Kensucky and Mizzou.

Now we’re at worst going to have our second 10 win season in three years.

The road back to “the top” isn’t a quick one. As good as we’ve been, we still have holes on this roster and are relying on a very raw QB.

I took the loss the other night especially hard, and it still hurts, but perspective is needed.

We’re gonna be okay.

If we played SC, I'm not so sure we are 8-2.

Let's go beat the Pickaxed Bastages from West Texas town of El Paso.

 

[VolsDoc81TX]

I honestly think if Texas loses to A&M, we should jump them. They have 0 ranked wins, and losses would be to A&M and UGA (at home). We would have a great ranked win over Bama. How do you put them in over us with 2 losses?

If texas loses to A&M, hopefully that would do it.
If they lose to A&M, then could they still play in the SECCG for their 3rd loss?

Of course, if uk could find it in their hearts to upset texas like they did ole miss…
gators beat ole miss in the swamp is more realistic.
And if we’re talking about that, then why not ask auburn to derail the tide.
Georgia Tech rising up for another upset would be nice.
But if both happened then it would simplify things for Tennessee.

If the committee has to pass on 3 loss SEC teams then it is better for the Vols.
Wouldn’t you rather play indiana, boise state, byu, smu or even miami over uga, bama, ole miss or texas? As much as I would like to put one of our SEC rivals out of the playoffs, I would much rather them falter and not make it to the playoffs at all.

I didn't realize how bad the teams we've played have become (except for Bama) I will say it's hard to play in the SEC. Oklahoma is beat up but Florida is getting better all the time. Need the teams we've played to get bowl eligible.

Then again, has our schedule really been easy? We played Bama and Georgia. The beginning of the year, our schedule looked pretty tough -- I think that is just the grind of SEC and cream rises to the top. We thought Mizzou had the pie schedule at the beginning, but look at them now. This is not an easy bunch of games for any of us.

Interesting thing is, individuals on here yapping about Texas easy SEC schedule.

Texas and Tennessee have 7 common opponents on their schedules only difference is Tennessee played a ranked Alabama at home. Texas plays at a ranked Texas A&M at end of season. Does that mean Tennessee had an easy SEC schedule as well? No I don't think so. Those who want to post Texas hasn't defeated a ranked opponent I totally agree but those that post Texas had a soft schedule I disagree. I'm sure someone will go and post that fraudulent article some talking head in the media wrote in June .

 

[VolsDoc81TX]

Tennessee deserved to lose for how they played last night. However, no one can deny that the officiating crew was borderline criminal.

The SEC has the most inept and corrupt officials in any level of football.

No way are they that inept. I agree with your assessment of corruption. Especially when you add the replay booth changing or making the on the field calls.

Three and a half years ago this program was dead in the water, cooked, buried 100 feet deep. Heup has done an amazing job getting this program turned around.

We’re a top tier SEC team now, and top 10-15 football team in the country . We’re just not at SECC or national title quality yet….and that’s okay. But I think we’re close, and with the talent we’re bringing in the next couple classes we should be right there competing for titles.

We just got to keep grinding and stacking talent. Our breakthrough will come

Happy Monday

November 18, 2024: When you feel undone and scattered, focus your thoughts on that which is the most vital to where you are right now. You can only take one step at a time, so make sure that every step counts in your progression. You are not where you were, but you are not where you are headed either. Stay current. Matthew 11:28 Come to Me, all you who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.

I don’t mind playing iga again in the playoffs. But it needs to be a neutral field. Don’t want to go to their stadium again…

Gotta get over the road hump eventually. It’s tough to beat the same team twice in a season

Also, don’t forget that Alabama I think travels to Oklahoma this weekend. I hope that’s a night game. Oklahoma is coming off of a bye week, so maybe they can get some of their injured guys healthy. You never know what happens on the road at night in the SEC.

I just looked… That is a night game for Alabama in Oklahoma. That could be interesting with Oklahoma coming off of bye. I’m sure the SEC will send one of its Croney crews to that game to make sure Alabama doesn’t lose.

Heupel’s the man still as far as I’m concerned. He brought us back to relevance, but it’s a long, bumpy road to the top. No doubt he’s the guy to do it.

Every game is competitive now, we have a fantastic culture, and a damn good football team. Future is bright.

They didn't play like it against Georgia. The key to beating Georgia is pressuring Beck. We didn't pressure Beck. Our front 4 couldn't overpower their banged-up OL, and Banks didn't make adjustments to bring blitzes. Instead, we let Beck sit in the pocket and dominate us. Could the offense have played better? Absolutely. Nico played well, IMO, but his WRs let him down a few times, and there were a few play calls that made me scratch my head. But the biggest reason we lost was the defense failed to get to Beck.

We were held more than a newborn baby. The officiating was criminal. The fix was on. Herbstreit even said before the game, "get ready for some home cooking." Besides the holding, two fumbles taken away, a facemask call, obvious PI on Squirrel, PI called on McCoy, illegal substitution that never gets called, false start by Beck directly in front of white hat, chokehold on Lott once again five steps in front of white hat, non calls that get reviewed and called penalties, the list was endless and all at critical times. It was obvious that once we jumped out the officials jumped in, not even trying to hide it. It is getting to the 1918 baseball level, even the media gets it.
It was the classic sucker bet situation, Nico injury, obnoxious line, ton of Tennessee money pours in, and the line doesn't budge. I don't gamble but I warned some of my buddies who do Saturday, do not touch it.
I really can no longer give any legitimacy to CFB, I have resigned to the fact that I am watching the WWE. Ironically that Tyson debacle happened on the same weekend, I felt the same way about boxing 20 years ago as I do CFB now and it is a damn shame. I used to love boxing and then Don King happened. I love college football but Draftkings has happened.

 

[rikberry31]

Coin flip. 3 steps with possession but no “football move”

If he would have fallen down instead of fumbling would they have called it an incomplete pass? I think not, it was a clear fumble.

 

[rikberry31]

I could see how the white hat could have missed that, it was really bang bang and hard to pick up in real time.

 

[rikberry31]

Looked like he never even secured it to me. You have to take 2 steps after you secure it, not after you first touch it, and he never fully controlled it all in my opinion.

Simple, would it have been called incomplete if he fell right there instead of losing the ball? Heck no, it would have been a reception. It was a fumble and and even my dog could see that.

 

[JohnnyD1024]

Dylan Sampson is the only running back and just the second player to have 100 yards rushing against Georgia so far this season.

 

[rikberry31]

They are ruled incomplete 100% of the time

. If he would not have lost the ball and fallen down it would have been a completion. It was much more of a completion than the juggled catch out of bounds that Delp had in the first half. The officials on purpose took two turnovers away from Tennessee, plain and simple. Criminal.

 

[VolsDoc81TX]

This is just my opinion, but I would have played with two tight ends if not 3 the entire game. They were open most every play. Beat uga at their own game. Send the 2-3 WRs deep every play. Either they give up a short to mid level pass to the TEs or RB or they leave a 1-1 coverage on the WR.

 

[Jackcrevol]

I think point is if Nico were to do that, five yellow hankies get thrown up in unison.

Not sure we could give up the blockers to do that. Defense can do what it wants when it pressures with 3 or 4 linemen. Our OL has been a liability for years.

 

[VolsDoc81TX]

Watch Aub beat AM and then AM beat Texas

This would be a good scenario. Add uk beating texas. Add ole miss getting waxed in the swamp. Then we’re talking about a good path for the Vols.

 

[rikberry31]

I was being sarcastic, It was an obvious false start that was overlooked on purpose. My God he took two freaking steps, Stevie Wonder would have seen it.

 

[GoBigOrange86]

Alright yall, give me some good comebacks to the inevitable “ROUGH WEEKEND FOR YOU, HUH?” BS I’m gonna get at work.

 

[MoCo_Vol]

Sampson needs 2 rushing TDs to be the career leader.

Would need almost 850 yards to surpass Henry for career rushing yards though.
