Recruiting Forum Football Talk V

[SweetasSoda]

I agree, I had the same conversation at my house. It isn't like Alabama (and Oklahoma for that matter) didn't hold all the time, but referees never called it. Now, it's getting called for some reason -- it's not like our game was the only one where Bama was getting hammered with penalties--it's happening when they are away from home, especially. I thought we had to treat Bryce like Tom Brady, but to his credit he took hell from VOLS pass rush and although slipped away many times, he was sacked hard with no calls.

I still like my $ theory. It’s all about protecting the team your conference can get in the playoffs. No need to be overprotective of AL when GA can do it then TN has a shot. Might not want to let AL get the second loss though in case Ole Miss can’t keep winning. Last night they called as fair as humanly possible. Will be interesting to see how it goes the rest of the year.

Whose pastor also had a stogie dangling from his mouth during announcements?

What's standing between us and the playoffs in Y2...

UT-Martin
Kentucky
USCjr
Mizzou
Vandy

Kentucky is going to be tough. They really believe their season is wasted and this will be their Super Bowl.

I hope the defense shows up and we just eliminate the late game drama and absolutely annihilate them from start to finish.

Checker is special. Orange out is beautiful.

I want an orange lower bowl and a white upper bowl!

 

[Enki_Amenra]

Just how hungover is everyone today?

Clean living has me feeling great today!

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

He probably sprints to the locker room after games anyway because he's only good at cleaning up

good one

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

There was one play where it was so obvious that everyone saw it. . . everyone but the refs. 2-3 of our guys basically being tackled. .

It wasn't just one play...wait until you watch the replay.

We have a legit chance of going undefeated into the postseason. That’s unreal to me

 

[Ashevolle]

I haven’t said it yet but IDC, still catching up, Jalin Hyatt is a legend. Does he know he wasn’t supposed to do that?

Shhhh. Don't tell him

Believe this has taken over the Gaulden picture for me!

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

Through the 1st half of the season, is this your favorite Tennessee team of all-time?

Gotta finish....they gotta finish strong to overtake the Sugar Vols...but they are well on their way to dethrone that team in my heart.

 

[BigSteve09]

Dunno man… May need to cut your losses there.

I only have one wife, but I was seeing two tell me not to do it. Outmanned and overserved, I sat my ass down where I belonged

We could leave our offense at home to play strictly defense against Kentucky and still win by 5 TDs.

Sounds like fun

 

[Enki_Amenra]

Our rag-tag group just dropped 50+ on a team loaded with 5*s, 3 deep at all positions on the field!

 

[TN-POSSUM]

My in laws 50th anniversary party is tonight..I brought my orange tie in case we won....

I've had that tie for over 25 years and it's one of the first ties I ever bought. It's kind of a cheap feeling tie. It's my least favorite to tie but I swear it's my most favorite to wear! That tie means we beat bama in football.

 

[Nash_Vol97]

Also, Orange Out...looks 10 times better than Checker.

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

I'll put it this way, for me and my fandom....there's the "85 Sugarvols," "Al Wilson's team", and now "Hooker's heroes." Not picking one over the other.

Good way to put it

Lol that would crazy. Then every school would try and replicate it

 

[volinbama256]

When anyone finds out some scoop on Bumpus and any other dinged up players, please post--- would like to know where we stand going into the week... Tillman for sure won't play until KY, and hopefully no one else that is dinged up...

UT martin should be get ahead and then play backups, F the score at this point with KY looming... I am hoping to see Milton in for the game before the half... This week, the game Saturday, and the following week leading up to KY should be rest and rehab to stomp KY in Neyland...

Don't think for a second that this crowd won't play a big factor against KY with us at home... they will rage...

 

[clt_tiger]

Same...it was surreal...after the gift TD on that horrid DPI call, and then the scoop and score...the look in everyone's eyes was pure raging BVS hopelessness...everyone's except for our players on the field....you could see that focus in each of them..."just give us one more chance".

I haven't seen that look since the 98 Arkansas game.

Hendon came into the stands and shocked everyone of us with with the stick named Hyatt ala SEC Shorts style. They broke our BVS. It’s permanently gone.
