has the Arian Foster curse? I don't believe in bashing players and this isn't meant to bash and Pig is definitely a good player and asset to the team but you can arguably say he cost us two wins. I believe someone pointed out that Arian probably cost Tennessee five wins during his Tennessee career due to untimely fumbles. Does this mean Pig is going to cost us at least three more games?

Pig was giving his all trying to score in the UGA game. I still say he broke the plane.

Does Pig speak pterodactyl or have a supreme love for tacos? If so,then maybe the Arian Foster comparison is warranted.

The fumble into the end zone of the Georgia game and then the untimely illegal block in the Vanderbilt game.

Oh, I thought you were talking about last night. He was trying to make a play in the GA game and I thought the block in the back was weak sauce IMO. Pig is one of the only play makers on this team. He's one of my favorite Vols.

For example they went to Young last night and Young came through. We don't have to make any excuses for him.

I think Young was in the game because of North and Croom were out. I'm not making excuses for Pig. He'll be an integral part of our offense next year.

Now I have heard some crazy off the wall crap before but to TRY and blame one person for a TEAM loss is dumb and this topic!!!! Can't believe someone started it or even thought it. If the TEAM makes the plays we win more games. Pig is a playmaker and plays on a different level than some of the other players.

What game winning big plays has he made? Have you ever wondered why bad luck seems to follow certain players?

I suppose he was the only guy playing during those games? I understand what you are saying but come on man!

PIG is a baller and we will need him to get back on top in 2015.

Ok, I understand everyone seems to think a player like Pig is worth it even though bad luck seems to follow even if you could see the future and knew he would cost us at least three more wins but we don't know which he is still worth it. I am going to bet he sees less playing time in the future and guys like North, Johnson, and Young see more playing time as well as the incoming players. Jones needs clutch players.

I've said it before and I'll say it again. Pig was giving his all to try and win that game. I can't believe this nonsense has erupted again, but yes I can. It's the offseason now and your really going to hear some of the dumbest threads started such as this one. I for one would prefer to talk about the future of our football program and not dwell on the past. I vote that we only let educated posters start threads.

Did you really take the time to write this? Smdh. Pig's and Arian's unfortunate mistakes did not cost us the games. Many plays before them did. both,players were busting their ass to make a play. In pig's case, the block in the back opened the edge for Dobbs to run. So reallg there wouldn't have been a td.

The fumble WAs an example of shear force and physics. Those sticky gloves can only hold so much.

Understand that but it appears misfortune seems to follow him.

P.S.-Love Tampa by the way-beautiful place.
