Uhhh... but it is a moral victory?

No.

It's a loss.

 

[The Breakerboy]

not so much moral victories than it is finding a way to lose almost every close game we have played for a decade straight.

How'd we lose this one? Team made plays. The WRs made miraculous catches. Ridley had a PI ball as we call them. The CB can't get his head around fast enough on a pass like that. I'm not even mad we just lost. Our guys made plays their guys made plays. The senior beat a freshman late in the game to beat us.

Derek Barnett gets held more than anyone in the country. It's sickening.

 

[The Breakerboy]

Rolling Dobbs out a bit or leaving a back in to help. Agree that penalties on first down were tough.

The RB in would've been a good adjustment.

 

[InVOLuntary]

Anybody notice on Bama's last drive how Coker threw it up against man coverage and let his receivers go up and get the ball? Notice on our last drive everybody seemed to be triple covered

He gets tackled.

 

[I4Jay]

The RB in would've been a good adjustment.

Hurd was left in to block, he checked inside first because the center just got ran over by the DT the previous play.
Dobbs looking left the whole way is what killed that play. If he checks the right side, he would have slid up and either took off running or bought more time.

It's borderline criminal at times

We hit big plays on straight drop backs. You have to trust your players. It really wasn't the play call that hurt. It was the penalty.

Two straight sacks = do something different.

 

[The Breakerboy]

Not blowing smoke.
If your expecting anyone to be Deion sanders you've lost your mind and expecting too much.
He's not getting torched. He lost a jump ball. It happens every weekend and on Sunday's to the best cbs in the Nfl.

The people dogging him are funny. His stock is soaring for a reason. And Martin is going to be absolutely nasty. Butch can't keep that type of talent on the sideline. Next year's secondary if Sutton does stay will be one of the best in the country.

How about Foreman playing extremely well with safety help? 😀

 

[Catbone]

No.

It's a loss.

Trying to be positive then get blasted lol: never change VN

I don't care about your shtick.

The second sack was the fumble. They lost the ball on the second attempt.

 

[NMVol]

I don't know what to think. Different feel to the game this year. I do think that pass that was reviewed in the last Bama drive hit the ground and bounced. That's just how I saw it, but I can see how the replay official didn't catch it.

 

[nashvol1]

Honestly the play of the game was the first play on the Bama drive. We had a QB 10 to 15 yards in the backfield and let him get back to LOS. Would have been 2nd and 23 or from the 12...don't have the exact yards. Just like OK.

 

[InVOLuntary]

The second sack was the fumble. They lost the ball on the second attempt.

Yea, and if he hadn't fumbled and Debord had did another straight drop back pass, there is no doubt in my mind that he'd be sacked again. Played right into Bama's hands IMO.

After the Florida game I was sure I hated the gators the most. I was wrong. Alabama can go to hell.

Yeah I was surprised he didn't feel the pressure. But oh well this team is good. They'll continue to grow. Our fans are so hilarious. Were quitting after the first TD.

And take Gary and,Vern with them.

Admins need to consider banning catbone. It's obvious he's a troll

I have been back and forth on him. Had him ignore been as hard as heck on him then nice. Time for him to be put on ignore. He is a troll and if not then he is not the kind of Vol fan I would ever want to have near me at a game. Everyone needs to ignore and or report his crap.

I may have missed something, but why didn't we have safety help over the top on the last drive? Were they just late?

Put him on ignore today. Site is much more enjoyable.

It's a 10-15 yard fade. CBs are on islands regardless of the help. Passes were thrown perfect.
