The Official #9 Tennessee @ #8 Texas A&M Game Thread, 3:30 pm ET, CBS

[L O S T in Orange]

The 3rd down run on the first possession and Dobbs not running on that fumble are mistakes you cant make. The D is gonna be gasses by the 4th and we are already down guys....smh

 

[JohnD13]

Gary making Schoop look stupid.

1Q really?

 

[Vol737]

F'ing RUN next time Dobb! Cripes, two count, if it's not there, RUN! The entire right side of that field was wide open for him. Why the hell does he refuse to run in the first half?!!

 

[fossilfiction]

Does anyone else hear the wistles being blown in the crowd? Or am I just hearing things

No I heard them also. On two plays as soon as the offense snaps the ball.

 

[NEVolFan]

Did anyone else notice if dobbs gets that off wr was wide open deep

Or he could have walked for the first down.

 

[SoFloVFL]

Does anyone else hear the wistles being blown in the crowd? Or am I just hearing things

I hear it too.

 

[90 Vol]

It was definitely a fumble

Arm going forward. Ball went forward. We'll just have to agree to disagree. I say incomplete pass.

 

[RollerVol]

Would have wasted a challenge and a timeout. It was a clear fumble.

at least time to rest and collect ourselves, or the booth could've gotten it wrong...or right...

GO VOLS!

 

[golfballs]

thats as bad defense as it gets

We gave it to them deep in our own territory. Not giving them much to work w

 

[Sarms58]

Turnovers kill...hot to bounce back...we need a Berry good return

 

[knoxvol16]

Is anyone else hearing a whistle before A&M snaps the ball on every play? If I were on D it would really be throwing me off.

Yep. Gotta be someone (or a few) in the crowd.

 

[jjohn329]

Jumper with a missed tackle on the first down and blown coverage on the TD. Gonna be a long day with him on Kirk.

 

[governmentmule]

Did the band make the trip?

must have,I heard some Rocky Top on the interception

 

[Lankykong]

arm moving forward, ball went forward...no way that was a fumble.

Yep. How does he fumble the ball forward like that if his arm wasn't moving forward and the ball was untouched?

 

[KBVol]

Jumper tried to push the WR out of bounds instead of wrapping him up on 3rd down and he got the first... then he just got smoked on the pass play for the TD.... the guy still sux

Berry got smoked, not Jumper. Besides, no linebacker in the SEC is gonna cover Christian Kirk.

 

[Creeker]

Seems like every year our defense players suck at wrapping up on tackles. Maybe it's not just us but idk

 

[chattavol420]

Butch has got to recognize that a&m are going to score a lot of points today. They are a offensive team to begin with an we are missing so many players on d. We need to understand and have the mentality that we need to score on every possession. We didn't start that way. The first series was bad. One very short throw then 2 conservative runs. We need down the field passes and runs by dobbs. And we need to go for it on short yardage situations. But we won't. We won't do any of that. Our coach doesn't have it in him. Not the courage to be aggressive or the intelligence to recognize he needs to be aggressive in this game

 

[rocketskates]

Yup. Thought that was just me

I've been hearing it too. I thought they were gonna review the first down call a couple plays ago.

 

[VolFootballlover]

Jumper tried to push the WR out of bounds instead of wrapping him up on 3rd down and he got the first... then he just got smoked on the pass play for the TD.... the guy still sux

Daddy will buy us a new building, be nice

 

[FranklinVFL]

Notre Dame and Texas lost..so they're probably gonna be needing new coaches next year

Please do not start this again.

 

[joevol33]

We gotta play to win.

 

[Volsfaninva917]

I hear it too.

That should be a 15 yarder against the home team

 

[rcrrcr]

A&M best looking team we have played so far. Good on both sides of the ball. we are going to have to play smart or it could get ugly. We have so many injuries.

 

[VOLINVONORE]

The ball was already out before his arm went forward ...

No it was not. It was clearly a fumble.

 

[duckman398686]

arm moving forward, ball went forward...no way that was a fumble.

Ball was not moving forward when the arm was....

Fumble
