‘23 Recruiting Forum: Official Austin Peay Pregame/Game Thread

[UTK]

It was the worst half of the CJH era. Let’s see how they look in the second half before we start calling for a falling sky though lol.

 

[Lloyd_Christmas]

Hopefully they let Joe throw down the field again in the second half. That first half may benefit Joe and the team more than an easy quick blowout followed by resting the entire second half. It's clear that Joe and the entire offense need more work to get in sync. Would rather them struggle a little against AP than have these kinds of miscues next week...of course, that's if they put it all together in the second half and blow out AP. Hopefully it's not indicative of what's to come next week and beyond.

Texas game starting on ESPN

Heupel didn't trust Milton to throw it.

that was a called run princess

 

[Pepe_Silvia]

Should be nico time if Milton doesn't look much better in the first possession of the 2nd half.

App St beating UNC in the 3rd

He’s gonna have to let him sling it all second half to get it down. Our WRs are getting wide open, he needs to hit them

Key stat here… 8/26 on 3rd down Vs Clemson and Virginia. 1/7 today so far. 9/33 good for 27.2% conversion rate.

If folks were expecting the efficiency and consistency of HH, the best UT qb of all-time, they were fooling themselves.

Still think Joe improves this year. But it'll take time and I'm not sure how high his ceiling ultimately is. But high enough for us to reach our expectation of ~9 wins imo.

I hope we look a lot better in the second half, or we need to take off the welding gloves and I love him, but burn the Condredge Shirts.

Nobody should ever schedule them.

 

[Deathandtaxes]

This is embarrassing… gotta change up the play calling short stuff a bomb a couple times and let’s have the carries get up to 70%… get Joe involved in the run game.


Gotta start him out different next game… QB power or some short out… or QB read… get him hit so he can calm down and just play.

I was just hoping for something around Dobbs throwing.

No Heisman, but be prepared for more cool celebration handshakes.

Hell yeah, nothing like shooting an imaginary arrow.

Sacrilege… shirts isn’t the problem… wish we would of done this when Hendon was here last year.

 

[SouthKnoxVOL]

Maybe this year the whole SEC East just sucks

Joe has missed some throws, but our receivers are not helping him. There have been some drops and the holds are getting old.

 

[Volbucky]

Second half no drops and the refs decide to stop calling every ticky-tack thing as soon as we start moving and we forget the first half ever happened.

Doubt it

I know, I am trying to be funny.

 

[Glitch]

Is it to late to sacrifice that left nut @Weezer has been hanging on to?

 

[gordonr24]

Nobody should ever schedule them.

Teams UT should never schedule:

Akron
APSU
UTM
App St
Any program that runs the triple option

 

[SouthKnoxVOL]

We all know this game was screwed from.the beginning when they didn't even run through the T.

I have been saying istead of the half time show, they should do the pregame, but nobody listens to me.

 

[jwilliams]

Guys, it's gonna be popular to throw Milton under the bus, but we've had 3 or 4 easy drops.

 

[SouthKnoxVOL]

Also...Thornton has been a huge disappointment.

I'm sorry. Milton was off, and there were several times he didnt run. Why be doesnt is insufferable. But those were not Milton issues. The WR's played like ****. Maybe the worst WR ive ever seen for a TN team.
