Did Neal score that TD?

 

[ScannerVol]

Don't call it a comeback!!!

 

[patrick]

is or it just me or are our 3rd and 4th team RB's fast/quicker than Neal and Lane???

 

[secking]

Where did everyone go? Crickets in here.

 

[vSphereGuy]

Lol what a joke the other backs run it down the field and they give it to Neal at the goalie.

That wasnt neal that ran in it.

 

[VolsSportsFan]

Yes but our 5th string running back just scored a TD.

So our backups are better than their backups?

Whoopty doo.

 

[Voldemonium]

When Kiffin was here we ran the ball with a make shift line. For the past 3 plus years we have hard supposedly great lineman with little success running the ball. I know Hardesty made a difference.

Hardesty made a mediocre O-line serviceable. We haven't had a true SEC-level back since he left. I'm praying Jalen Hurd is our Gurley/Marshall. Hurd's teammate Dorian Carter looks legit as well.

Boom!

SEC,SEC,SEC.....

lol:

4th stringers, I'm being serious.

Probably their walk-ons.

alden hill....announcer misspoke....happens when the crew wakes you up to call out a score.

 

[1985Vols]

this is a goofy statement . They have played against a 7 or 8 man box all day . Oregon lined up run and pressure all day .

They dared our QB to beat them . If we had a QB that could complete routine passes and sustain drives ...magically the box would have cleared out and the offensive line would have been in an equitable matchup.

Not to mention that this woulda translated to scores and the defense NOT being on the field.

The above reasons are why you hear 99% of coaches talking about balanced football. You are not balanced if you cannot pass. Any DC detects a team cant pass will stack the box

Bull Crap. I saw 4 to 6 in the box most of the first half. Our line is all hype and has been for years now.

 

[westsidefan]

and Palardy still hasn't hit a linemen in the ass this year on a PAT

my hatred for lincoln still burns

 

[BruiserVol]

Announcers said Neal.

 

[FlVols]

If Peterman had been our QB I think we would have done a lot better.

 

[VolsSportsFan]

Hard to tell when they are playing against 4th string defense.

 

[tumscalcium]

Boom! Double digits!!!!!

 

[patrick]

Dude we're playing their 3rd stringers.

but the offense play calling has changed.

 

[secking]

I miss the days that everyone complained about a 9-3 season.

This...

the lulz?

 

[LocoVol]

Yea I saw it after, I was doing a report and just heard them say Neal.
