The Official #8 Tennessee @ Vanderbilt Game Thread, 12:00 PM ET, ABC

[RockyTop140]

Dude literally stepped on the line of scrimmage

It’s clear we won’t be getting any favorable calls. Vandy doesn’t hold or jump offsides. Can’t tackle pavia, he’s off limits.

 

[Big Orange Rock]

Typical game for us. We have done nothing g right but yet we are right there with a chance to win. Let’s go cardiac kids pull another one out for us.

 

[dalton_vol]

How can we not win a 1 v1 with our receivers

 

[KeyVol14]

Gonna be either way unless we hit the portal hard as hell. Our lines will be even worse next year. Lol.

There needs to be staff changes. Mainly O line and WRs coach.

Playcalling ain't great either

 

[VOLINVONORE]

Maybe the worm is beginning to turn. Things are looking better. We win the going away.

 

[ashleyyy]

pick 6 please

 

[AdoptedVOL]

NB4 RUN UP THE MIDDLE AND OVER THROW SIDELINE

50 yards in penalties in a quarter and a half.

Heup teams lack discipline and it has cost TN greatly over the years.

 

[Vol8188]

Heupel is a dumbass.

Bishop in the game.

Offense has no discipline. Total sh$$ show.

Yep. He’s the most successful coach we’ve had in 20 years, about to make our first playoff, won 2 of the last 3 against Bama, 2 of the last 3 against Florida, and will have overachieved expectations for this season if he wins today.

Clearly between the two of you, he’s the one who is a dumbass.

 

[Kylo]

There can be bad calls without conspiracy. That was a bad call. Just like the false start

That was the correct call. He literally carried him and then drove him into the ground. Obviously penalty. The false start was obviously a bad call. Both were obvious.

 

[Frozevol]

Killed ourselves on that drive. Plus the refs have decided to take over the game. We’ve seen this before. The refs seem to get in a groove of bad calls and feed on their own “success”.

 

[joevol33]

Stop them, and get a td

 

[SCRocket]

Gilbert….. my man!

Amen brother

 

[BucksnortVol]

You see Huepel is scared to death

He ought to be, this team is not ready to play and he is getting outcoached

 

[Majors]

How much do we miss Hyatt and Fant….those two opened the playbook to a cheat code of new plays

 

[orangerush]

Vandy is lame and we don’t have a pulse

 

[Illinoisvolfan2]

Heup has not been the same since he returned to OK.

I’m glad we played them early in the season. We’d lose to them now

 

[BigOrangeFanatic]

Officials have contributed, but we also have beat ourselves enough. Don't think JH will ever win anything of significance other than winning a big game every now and then during the regular season. His teams are just too undisciplined.

 

[Cartervol]

1-10, run up the middle, 2-8, run up the middle, 3-13 down by 10… run up the middle…

Heupel is a offensive guru

 

[amaralfan1]

I don't blame Heupel for kicking. The refs had no intention of letting us get any closer that drive as demonstrated on the first offensive offsides flag. Defense gets this back to us and I like our odds.

 

[VolGirl81]

Where is the play calling? Why are we not trying to pass at all? Do we have tight ends anymore other than to block or to not get one yard from the backfield?

 

[VFL_Hammer]

One of two things happens. We get our a$$ whooped by Vanderbilt or we get our a$$ whooped in the first playoff round. I never thought a CJH offense could suck this bad.

I choose option 2

 

[TheVolsFrog]

Heup has not been the same since he returned to OK.

Honestly he hasn't been the same since Golesh left, last year play calling left a lot to be desired.
We need an OC that can watch film and find ways to exploit teams better than what we're getting

 

[heath.hinkle]

Heupel seems frantic at times. Not angry but frantic.

 

[Berry4Heisman14]

I just don’t understand. Every single year when we need it most we choke. How can the team not be motivated to go to the playoffs?

 

[vol94]

I think Heup is confused and def not confident in his offense. Play calling is horrible.

And now D Samp supposedly being checked out for head injury.
