The guys in black and white stripes

[Titan&Volfan4life]

gave this game to Vandy.

I've never see refs try so hard to help a team win a football game.

I expected a Bowl game this season and I believe our kids played well enough to earn the Win tonight even with Dobbs being off tonight and forcing our coaches to have to run all night.

Losing North was big too.

There was ZERO video evidence to change the spot of the ball and give a gift of a 1st down to keep Vandy alive.

Zebras were totally pathetic tonight IMO.

He made the first down and then some.

I expected a Bowl game this season..

That's one of the main problems most fans had.

I expected 4-5 wins. Too many fans expected UT to win 6-7, maybe even 8 games.

 

[MississippiVOLS]

As the announcer said, his head and shoulders passed the line but they can't assume where the football was because it couldn't be seen on the replay.

 

[Underachievers]

They drove the ball 92 yards.

 

[CountVolcula]

No

They got the first down

Only bad call was the fumbled catch by Pig

Lose is on the staff

I hate to say it but I agree with you. We had our chances to win this gm and couldn't do it. We had bad play calling and piss poor execution. It all boils down to we have a very bad team

 

[Underachievers]

We also got our turnovers and only scored 10 points.

 

[volgrad500]

Man get real. The refs in no way cost us this game.

 

[secking]

Don't make us look worse, everyone saw that was a first down.

 

[Obsessed]

Another one????

Come on guys. This is straight up on the staff. 2 weeks to prepare. 2 weeks.

Lets see it was the bastard in the replay booth not the ref 10 feet from the play

 

[orangebloodgmc]

They drove the ball 92 yards.

... with a 180 degree opposite facemask call.

 

[OrangeBloodinTN]

The facemask call at the end was a terrible call. Should have been called on both players, because they were both grabbing facemask.

 

[secking]

We also got our turnovers and only scored 10 points.

Yep 7 was off a TO, and the other clanked through the uprights for a FG.

The kids can only do what they are coached.

 

[508mikey]

What about Howards stupid block in the back costing the TD and the game perhaps

 

[Underachievers]

Very poor performance coming off a bye week.

 

[BennisDrewer]

Are you kidding me???

The refs made 1 questionable call (the Pig catch)...and even then it should have never came down to a play that close, he was wide open....the Vols only have the Vols to blame for this loss...Hell Vandy put the game on a platter multiple time, but it was refused.

 

[Obsessed]

How about the fake punt 4th and 19.

 

[AllVolinGA]

Why does there have to be someone to blame? Vandy made the plays when they had to, we did not, and we we're give golden chances in the first half. The refs didn't lose this game for us. The team lost the game. Quit making excuses.

 

[BennisDrewer]

What about Howards stupid block in the back costing the TD and the game perhaps

I think he probably would've made the tackle if it wasn't for that block in the back, still definitely hurt field position though.

 

[orangebloodgmc]

I'm not even too sure about the call against Pig that wiped out Dobbs' TD -- seems like Pig tried to hold him or block him from behind, but failed to manage to do either.

This thread is complete BS! The refs did nothing to take anything away. Vanderbilt out played and out coached us and drove the ball down our throats when the game was on the line. End of story.

 

[volcrazi]

I agree it looked as tho he got it, but the initial call was short. Only way their supposed to be able to overturn the call is if they have clear evidence. From no angle could you see where the ball was in respect to the first down line. You can not assume anything there. They solely looked at his helmet place & upper body. Who knows where the ball was. Assumption at that point.
