‘23 Recruiting Forum: Official Alabama Pregame/Game Thread

[nashvol1]

Milton had room to scramble and make a play there on 4th.

Squirrel held on 3rd down.

Misfits of sorts. We sucked in 2nd half but refs? It’s a travesty.

One penalty? Multiple missed calls.

All started with a dumb first down call

 

[Dadof2volfans]

I have never hated Alabama more than I do now. That is insane how nothing was called.

I tried to prepare myself that it would happen. But when you actually see it unfold it still drives you crazy. How was just one penalty called against them?

 

[Govolsman98]

Well regroup and beat Kentucky next week. Lets see if we can get to 9-3

 

[Orange.]

Gary should be showing clips of Bama's OL holding every down.

That's a form of lying. Lying sack of

Dude, he's still better than Dooley, Butch, Pruitt, and, yes, Kiffin.

He is, but there’ve been some head scratchers the last two weeks.

He's better than a bunch of really bad coaches. I won't argue with that.

0 live ball penalties. It was bad.

But we were worse

Our AD needs to be on Sankey's doorstep with tape on Monday. This might be the most blatant Ref screw I've seen in this series... i'm 52....

 

[Pepe_Silvia]

Drink less vodka

Heupel ought a drink less of it in the locker room at halftime.

 

[TN-POSSUM]

Come on Dee

 

[Go Fight Win]

We weren’t that much worse my dude

 

[Smyrna ATL Vol]

Yeah this is CRAP. I’ve seen 6-7 blatant holding calls that haven’t been called. You can’t be that blind. I’ll help pay the fine, but Coach needs to be slick and say something like “good game Refs”

I agree. It’s outrageous have predetermined some games are and the blatant bias in officiating.

Friend and fam aren’t even because we all knew they wouldn’t let us win and the officiating would be bad. College football has been ruined for me for the last few years and it’s why I don’t go to any games anymore. I won’t support it.

 

[BigOrangeTrain]

Out coached. Out played. Bad play calling. Poor execution. This second half reminded me of Butch Jones. We had a golden opportunity to take a 2 win streak against Bama. But no. We piss down our leg and got completely shut down in the second half.

I love Heupel but I have to accept him for what he is. A coach that’s never gonna win the NC.

 

[Orange.]

I may be over this charade.

I have people in other states who don't even follow the Vols calling me and asking me if I saw how the refs stole the game.

 

[TN-POSSUM]

Just throw it deep .....4 times in a row

 

[INKYBERRYVOL]

No other way this was going to go. They were sending the narrative off of Bama getting into the playoffs after Bowers went down. Sucks because our boys were by far better until the refs interview.

 

[UTK]

SOMEONE SHOW ME THE PENALTY comparisons please

 

[De La Cloobs]

It's amazing Bama has 1 foul for 5 yards

This should actually be the stat of the game.

 

[Gus D's kernbred]

Let's get one more guys

Why don’t you do us all a favor and go to the Bama boards troll

 

[jpope9]

Not throwing to the endzone?

 

[VolsAgainstTheWorld15]

And?

Man, stop being dense. Yes, we have some folks on here who think Alabama holds every play which is idiotic. No, we didn’t lose the game because of the refs.

Nobody who is being honest, though, can deny that Alabama got away with a lot tonight. Scoffing at Bama only being called for one penalty like you are is every bit as silly as the people who are screaming that we lost solely because of the refs. It can be true that we got outplayed and that Nick got his way from the stripes.

 

[jpope9]

Ref deserves that
