26/40 311 yards 7.8 ypa 2 td 1 int 1 fumble

Like he said, some bad and some good.

Like I said, stats always seem much better than his actual play. He’s not good

 

[engineerVOL]

I mean what have we done to keep deserving this?

How do we still have enough fans to even have a message board?

I’m just here for the GIFs and piling on Catbone.

 

[nicksjuzunk]

There better not be a word about fans leaving.

If I show up to a nice restaurant, order a quality burger and you bring out last night’s Krystal with a bite taken out of it, I’m leaving too.

 

[nicksjuzunk]

Anyone checked on @Bassmaster_Vol

I’ll see if he’s still living.

 

[SLICKYINC]

Well i doubt we see some weird semi option offense again (afaik). Absolutely gave us fits. Byu is way more standard.

Blue print moment

 

[VolDaddy87]

I'm extremely disappointed. The season shouldn't feel this bad already, but here we are. Really hope something clicks and goes right soon. I'll still be here with my hopes up.

Chattanooga
2020 Charlotte
2020 Furman
2021 South Alabama
2021 Bowling Green
2022 Army
2022 Ball State

Army would run for 400 yards on us.

 

[engineerVOL]

Auburn making things interesting.

 

[nicksjuzunk]

What bothers me the most about this loss is that I can't point to any single thing. We just sucked and I don't know how Pruitt, JG, or any of us come back from it. We earned this loss.

Really well said. It’s not that anyways bad, it’s just that nothing was good, which is maybe even worse

 

[VolGee4]

That doesn’t answer the question.

Eh, it’s easy to say Auburn. But playing in the west and Georgia every year, coaches can win at UT.

 

[Big Sun]

We lost a few today. Supposedly.

The stands looked vacant.

 

[Ron Swanson]

It feels like we’re stuck in some nightmare we can’t wake up from. Like the kid said in Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom, “if you drink blood, you not wake up from nightmare.”

I think we drank the blood of Kali.

 

[nicksjuzunk]

Who the hell is LWS and why is he always right? Consider me living on that guy’s word from here on out.

Literally the only person I’ve heard say 5-7. 7-5 or above is 90% around here with a few 6 wins. @chavisut thought 5 was possible. I thought half the team would have to be injured first. But now...

Lots of 3rd down calls that were mind boggling

 

[rjd970]

I read Pruitt’s post game comments:

https://s3.amazonaws.com/sidearm.sites/utsports.com/documents/2019/8/31/Pruitt_8_31.pdf

Interesting. Defensive troubles were all because we couldn’t figure out how their tight end was lining up.

It’s going to be a long season fellas.

 

[VolGee4]

He wasn't awful. This game is on defense in my mind. 38 against GA State is unacceptable.

Offense basically gave them two, and another was on a bad PI call on Warrior. Defense didn’t play great, but you can’t kick 3 field goals.

 

[engineerVOL]

I'm extremely disappointed. The season shouldn't feel this bad already, but here we are. Really hope something clicks and goes right soon. I'll still be here with my hopes up.

App State game felt pretty bad. But we knew we had Dobbs and AK. I have no confidence in our QB.

Pruitt is in serious freaking danger of this thing turning into a complete disaster. He needs to instill some fight in that team rapidly!

 

[SLICKYINC]

 

[Big Sun]

Were gonna be ok. Bass, are you out there??

 

[rjd970]

This all day.

 

[Dooby15]

We will win 7 games. Keep the faith.

 

[JCP201]

Happy for this guy:

 

[appyvol]

Leaving the stadium I was saying that Butch would have at least won this game. I was so mad, angry, felt all the range of emotions and was ready to fire Pruitt.

After I've calmed down somewhat and reflected, this really sucks. It does. It hurts and I'm embarrassed. But we played as bad as we possibly could, and their coaches had a really good game plan and the kids at GSU played the game of their lives. No matter what, when we come out next weekend, we will still be the most talented team on the field. We should beat BYU.

We can't let this one game beat us and define our season. Suck it the **** up, and get ready for BYU. At the end of the day, all of our goals are still on front of us. We're still 0-0 in conference. We have to get better and execute. We need to take it back to basics this week, making sure we are aligned on defense and not overthink things.

This team is still very talented, we just had a historically bad day. Believe it or not, we can still beat Florida, and have a really good year. Just have to get better and execute, and the good news is there's still time and opportunity.
