A Vol and a Gator literally tried to box each other at the end of Tennessee-Florida

Well, the finish of Tennessee – Florida got scrappy.

Ok. I wasn’t paying that close of attention live.
The QB got hit because he’s stupid.
Lol

haven't seen anything on Sampson or Slaughter

but Good Lort

 

[Orangeslice13]

I remember once when I was a kid a game vs auburn. Barn had the ball close to scoring and went victory formation. They snapped the ball and the qb dances around and nobody’s doing anything so he snuck around the side and scored. Would have been 85-86. After that I’ve always thought if you get within one step of the qb in victory formation you get a free hit.

Sigh.
Why not use the legal stuff in Tennessee?

IKR?!

We could have used Mincey last night for sure.

And Slaughter for sure!

I don't know why he didn't just take the knee, but Napier took a timeout with 14 seconds left and we took one with like 5.

The entire ending was stupid, and 5 decided to continue the stupidity after it was already stupid.

Edit: The lack of poise is indicative of something larger, I fear.

Football players ain’t the sharpest knives in the drawer.

If that was bama he would’ve played. I get it, weed is illegal but come on, simple possession?? Look the other way

Uh oh

@SECOfficiating @SECNetwork BREAKING NEWS—— fan duel has apparently recruited several teams of sec officials. The florida-tennessee game was so obvious.

News story is going to break soon

5 didn’t deliver the hit. He came to the defense of the guy who did.
Edit: pretty sure. I’ll watch again to confirm

5 was the primary one swinging after the hit
Big O was the one who initiated contact with the QB

 

[Orangeslice13]

#21 Thomas delivers the hit.
#5 shows up to stand by his dude

I’m critical of 5 but he’s totally defensive in that video
I’d have trouble as a coach saying anything to him based on the video. “Thomas shouldn’t have done that but you can’t let him stand there by himself among a bunch of gators. Don’t do it again and get out of my office “

yes
trying to throw punches against a guy who outweighs him by 75 lb or more (and is wearing a helmet) hahahaha

Just going into the scrum to help your boi means punches are coming your way.

When I was a bartender in Austin, we had a number to call within the athletic department if an athlete was acting up.

 

[GordonC]

I don't know how much flexibility LENF has now with athletes in a world of technology and cameras everywhere.

One would like to believe it shouldn't matter from "team leaders," and I won't incite people by saying kids do dumb things because of the "they're not kids" BS.
But they are, and I did.

 

[Grey_pilgrim]

Do you ever speed, jay walk, text and drive, run stop signs, drive buzzed? All those things are way more dangerous than simple possession. Sure it’s dumb but simple possession like one blunt.

I see a lot of talk about "law abiding citizens," and I try to be one. But sometimes I violate the speed limit.

But simple possession can be more than one blunt, right?
Was he also speeding? Do you know? Were those charges dropped? Was he texting and driving? Was he driving at all?
We don't know

Point here: we don't know the exact circumstances. Maybe we never will. Why was he stopped in the first place, if he was stopped?
I trust the coach to make the decision on who should play. He knows more about what happened than we do.

I actually agree. I got sidetracked from my main point though and that’s if this happens at bama and Georgia as well, we never hear about it. Not saying it’s right or wrong, just those schools protect their players.

What my old eyes saw - UF QB did not take a knee. He was dancing around, and a Tennessee player pushed him down. A Florida player punched a Vol. A few feet away, another Florida player squared up towards Vol #5, who squared up in response.

The targeting call was utter BS.

I was going to say, first time I watched the replay and if you are going to run around being stupid, expect to pay.
