The Official #7 Tennessee @ #12 Georgia Game Thread, 7:30 PM ET, ABC

[VOLtaism]

Anyone who would have dialed up a blitz package against Beck?

This was the reason they lost. Somewhere the decision was made not to blitz the UGA QB.

 

[vavolfan6]

He played well in the 1st half but threw for only 65 yards in 2nd half.

He only had 4 possessions in the 2nd half.

On 2 of those possessions he led the offense to the UGA 40 yard line. Then we committ a False Start and Delay of Game forcing us to punt.
On 1 of those possessions the game was out of reach

The defense really didn't give him much of an opportunity to put the game in Nico's hands.

 

[Chickenfarmer]

He did touch the facemask for a second cannot believe ref even saw it.

 

[C-south]

And Bama’s best win is UGA….and OM’s best win is UGA. Again, everyone except for UGA has 1 good win and 1 questionable loss.

UGA beat Clemson, Texas, and us. Bama beat UGA, SC, LSU, and mizzou. We beat bama.

 

[Chickenfarmer]

UGA fans hate Bobo, butt he out coached our staff tonight.

 

[Volbrando]

IMO he needs to take the damn fine and say it. LOUDLY

Exactly right. It’s time to speak up or get run over. The fine is worth it

LSU who has 4 losses and just lost to the UF team we beat? I’ve said multiple times that UGA has the best resume. TX loses to AM they’re likely in with their best win being Vandy.

You'd think that if we weren't going to blitz that we'd at least manage to put a hat on a hat, but we left the TE uncovered all night as well.

Coverage looked like we only had 9 men playing defense sometimes.

You can spin it however you want but we’re out. Turns out the loss to Arkansas wasn’t a freebie.

Two very critical calls in the game too. Clear bias. It’s starting to feel like professional wrestling lately. Too much money involved.

 

[Andrew8210]

I think it's kind of ridiculous that Texas is ranked in the top 5. They don't have the resume to be a Top 5 team IMO.

 

[vavolfan6]

I am glad you were impressed but he threw for 167 yards and Beck threw for over 300 and that was the difference in the game.

There are 21 other starters on the field you know. Nico doesn't control the defense. He didn't play against Beck. He controlled what he could and was efficient. He didn't have as clean of a pocket, and was the one playing on the road.

I think he played at a high enough level to win tonight. He simply didn't have enough opportunities and good enough field position. It's a team sport. Nico is near the bottom of the list tonight of players deserving blame.

 

[GiveHim6InSC]

Sadly we don't deserve the playoffs. I will hope for it but time and time again we just look lost against competent teams.

Our only good win is Bama. 2nd best win is.... Florida? Personally expecting to be left out and I think it will be the right call.

Florida not a bad win, considering what they did to LSU

 

[Other_Guy]

Brent Vinables may not make it past next year at Oklahoma. I'd take him everyday and twice on Sunday over Banks.

I need a list. That's like saying if Saban had become available Georgia would fire Kirby. You putting Heupels entire career here on the line on the chance Venables would take the job?

What's Penn states, Texas, BYU, and Indiana's quality win....I'll wait

It's a decent win yeah. I don't think it's going to carry a lot of weight with the committee. We really just need to hope a few teams lose or we are on the outside looking in

 

[Chickenfarmer]

On the go ahead TD where Beck ran it in, 57 tried to trip Pierce and 53 had Norman-Lott in a bear hug from behind and they called defensive holding on Boo. That was a bad no call on GA D-Line.

I think the defensive holding was after the line of scrimmage was crossed as well, so it seemed kind of questionable

The answer is obvious. Unfortunately there is too much bias on the committee. Too much money involved now too. Starting to feel like I’m watching fixed games at times too…

 

[Orange931]

UGA beat Clemson, Texas, and us. Bama beat UGA, SC, LSU, and mizzou. We beat bama.

LSU and Mizzou are both out of the Top 25 now. Those are not quality wins.

 

[C-south]

Lol. They don’t have losing records. Keep the hope alive. In a couple weeks you’ll be saying “ maybe next year”.

 

[Orange931]

Neither does Florida and they beat LSU. Is that a quality win for us? Will a win over Vandy be a quality win for us and they beat Bama?

We are dropping outside the top 12. We won’t be moving up after that even if a few teams ahead of us lose.

That might be true but it doesn’t make it right. We’ll see if they do the right thing.

 

[Andrew8210]

I wonder if any team besides Georgia has 3 wins over teams that are currently in the top 20.
