The Official #17 Tennessee vs. Virginia Tech Game Thread, 8:00 pm ET (9/10/16), ABC

[VOLdo Raine]

That looked close- hope it stands.

 

[FlVols]

I only wonder what the offense will do now with these downs? Can we please get it to the end zone for 6? Go Vols

 

[MyBloodRunnethOrange]

I want the rabbit's foot Butch is using.

 

[FranklinVFL]

Don't worry VT. We just want to run the ball 3 times and give it right back to you. We don't like to put games away in the 4th quarter.

 

[CamVol8]

OFFENSE NEEDS TO MOVE THE BALL NOW! It's starting to look like last year in the 4th quarter. We cannot do that anymore.

 

[orangerush]

3 plays and punt.

 

[KBVol]

Let's face it, this is the best Dobbs can do. It's so disheartening.

This ain't on Dobbs. OL is atrocious, Defense is soft and no one playing assignment football. Thank God Dobbs has made the plays he has or we're screwed.

 

[YankeeVol]

I think CBJ may have thrown in his children when he sold his soul...........

 

[IBVolCrzy]

We need another break so we can...go 3 and out

 

[kell7517]

Question? IF, and I mean if we win and UGA barely won against an FCS team. Do we move up 8 spots and UGA drop 8?

 

[Sin City Vol]

I guess lessons weren't learned from last year. We are very lucky that VT has shot itself in the foot all night. Butch's ass tightens up and he plays not to lose any time he gets a lead. That's a recipe for disaster against a good team and VT is not a good team

 

[Vfl2407]

Dear lord playing not to lose

But when they only rush 3 and still get to Dobbs......

 

[AllVols]

Thank God they're stupid

This

 

[AUVol]

That certainly an...unorthodox...way to get a 1st down...

 

[BJSforVols]

3rd and 11 and we throw the ball to the lOS?

They dropped 8. Nothing was open.

 

[Vol Kilmer]

Sounds familiar.
At least they have Colton Jumper (who is awesome btw) to provide superior arm tackling. Jumper is a fine young man. great kid. And arm tackler.

He would never see the field on any other SEC SQUAD.

We are not a top 25 team

 

[Flipdaddy]

This offense is terrible. Wait until big boy football comes in a few weeks. At least we'll probably go to the music city bowl for another mediocre year of football. Proud of the defense.

 

[MADISONGAVOL]

For all points we put up how ma y drives have stalled in 2nd half...yet again

 

[volinbama256]

STAFF= exposed once and for all... D-......Blackburn hired, staff fired...

 

[NEVolFan]

1) Hurd up the gut, for 2.
2) Kamara toss down the line for no gain.
3) Dobbs screen to Kamara, 2 yds.
4) Punt....or long field goal.

 

[joevol33]

Please come on Vols.

 

[MyBloodRunnethOrange]

Hurd, Hurd, Incomplete, fg attempt

 

[Biopsyman]

Jones needs to understand that this is a power league

 

[Stoerner's Fumble]

Lucky to finish 3rd in East
