The Official #9 Tennessee @ #8 Ohio State Game Thread, 8:00 PM ET, ABC/ESPN

Banks buddy, they are either going to throw a quick screen to Henderson or a 2 minute developing play 20 yards down the field because of your refusement to pressure the quarterback. Just giving you a heads up

 

[C-south]

There is an obvious talent gap. We still have a ways to go.

This is what drives me nuts. You march down the field with 4-7 yard plays and then just decide to go for it all. Just keep the sticks moving, geez. That was an obvious PI there as well, but doesn’t change the fact that we look terrible.

You forgot the typical dead ball penalty that’s always a good drive staller.

 

[Vawlk Tuah]

I'll give it to the officials, as far as DPI goes they are consistent. Arion deserved the Hankey on that interception. Letting them play, as long as it continues and it's both ways we can't complain

 

[deezvols]

It's like he really takes saving him for the second half to the bank.

Might as well, we don’t really play the 1st half anyways

 

[Vol4lif3]

Can we get a touchdown

 

[BleedOrange81]

I hate this offense. Why can’t we run a more wide open offense. Slants. crossing patterns. Instead of these shorts curls and outs and bunch receivers sets.

We did for the first couple of years but since golesh left so did that style..

Heupel is weak

 

[rocktopper16]

Everyone crying about PI we got handed a roughing the passer that wasn’t a roughing the passer. Shotting the bed in all facets and you all blame refs. So pitiful

lol he drove Nico to the ground with force. Thats roughing all day.

 

[cwbytruckers]

About to be 28-3 at the half

 

[Anti-shunshinepumper]

Lucky to get the 3 with that roughing the passer INT reversal

 

[chuckb1448]

I think I'm done watching football, the biased BS is so utterly Obvious it's Pathetic.... I Declare: I'm finished watching Football.... unless we win or at least until Late August Next Year!

 

[DD4ME]

Me locked into watching this game

 

[knoxchief]

Can't stand these announcers! They are totally biased and full of SHT

 

[TennesseeTarheel]

Officiating seems so ACC on both side of the ball.

 

[alavolfan]

2 carries for Sampson so far

Apparently he’s hurt.

 

[Mustng959]

Feel bad for all the fans that made the trip and sit in this cold for this performance.

I'm about ready to turn this $hi+ off. Refs aren't even going to give us a chance to try and get back in the game. Tennessee has no answers for anything.

 

[tnvols72]

Y’all reckon Banks made any adjustments for the upcoming series?

nope

 

[GAVol]

He is standing there with his helmet on though like he is ready and this is pretty common for him to go to the sideline in the 2nd quarter.

He was out by the 2nd series.

 

[Dergibvol]

2 carries for Sampson so far

They said he's got a hamstring issue

 

[FSUgothosed]

That body slam delivered to Nico was more malicious than Eason’s facemask penalty, dammit!

LOL, right

 

[MDsweetT]

Our routes have receivers in the same area too much

Very bad distribution. I would like to know what they’re teaching Nico to read. He doesn’t seem to go through “progressions” but if there aren’t any answers….any QB will struggle.

 

[Memphisvol87]

Just pressure their qb on this drive please

 

[Volbrando]

How did we win 10 games

Well in all fairness, they were giving us 7-10 yards cushion and then that closed in the redzone.

 

[charleyhorse]

Mr Magoo keeps throwing into double and triple coverage.. is he color blind also? Would explain volleyball talent vs football
