The Official #12/10 Tennessee vs. Virginia Game Thread, 12:00 PM ET, ABC

Watch the fake.

They're going for it

 

[Other_Guy]

Key word. 9 months. They have not played a down of live football in 9 months. Give me a break.

Except zero excuses for 5th year senior who can't not overthrow people

 

[Pennheel]

Worst offensive half since USCjr. Not a good way to open after having 9 months to get ready

There's still another half to go. I believe it's going to be a different game in the second half. No worries... It's just getting the kinks out with it being the first game.

 

[chuckb1448]

pick 6 would be nice here

I'd love to see a turnover

 

[VolonTyne]

Need a stop here. C'mon D!!

 

[Dergibvol]

That fields WR looks good.

 

[Volunteer_Kirby]

Should be an easy decision to take the points but with that kicker...

 

[TennesseeRhett]

The biggest obstacle for Tennessee right now is Tennessee. UVA has done almost nothing to keep themselves in this game

 

[Flipdaddy]

We should be up 21-0 right now. Hold them here!

Could be up 21-0, SHOULD be up 35-0

 

[butler5]

I need 21 nothing halftime and I will chalk it up to first game nervousness

 

[Megatron88]

Thought they played pretty well until this drive seems like the safeties were asleep at the wheel this drive

I feel like it was a combination of the safeties being asleep on that play and the Va Qb just making a good play. Our DB coaching leaves a lot to be desired though

 

[Orange defense]

Big play here!

 

[Pride85]

Is Wright shaken up? Where’s he been?

I belive they are doing a heavy rotation on the backs.

 

[Al Davis]

Thought they played pretty well until this drive seems like the safeties were asleep at the wheel this drive

He does so much well but refuses to teach DB’s to turn their heads.

 

[NATHAN05]

I'd love to see a turnover

D deserves it......they've swarmed to the ball, wrapped up, and been in the backfield all game

 

[irish1485]

Butch about to give up 100

 

[Real Info]

On a side note, Elijah Herring can fly!

 

[vavolfan6]

Is it just me but this 1st half seems to be taking a while...so much for speeding the game up

I think it doesnt feel much different because Tennessee is up tempo eveb after furst downs and Virginia hasn't gotten many first downs this half and went up tempo this drive when they did.

 

[ttocswob]

ABC making $$$ on all that time saved not stopping the clock on first down.

 

[OrangeTsar]

How long are Time outs now? An hour? Yeah, we are going to shorten the games

 

[Zues1]

They're going for it

Personally I would take the three you don't want to go in and halftime with a egg on your side of the board.

Well there you go. Right decision

 

[TheMookieMonster]

Kicking the FG. SOFT.

 

[NATHAN05]

Dang........was hoping for a 1st half goose egg

 

[ProfessorD]

IfnKeyton had caught that ball earlier this game would already be over.

This. That’s when joe started playing like crap after that drop. Idk why that rattled him but that turned the momentum. Hopefully we got it back

 

[firestorm]

Virginia scores a field goal.
