The Official Tennessee vs. #2 Oregon Game Thread, 3:30pm ET(09/14/13), ABC

Why Punt again....

 

[UTProf]

The refs have not been nice in their choice of spotting.

 

[rocketskates]

Obviously the best chance we have is to chew as much clock as possible. I don't get the up tempo offense

 

[AlphaVOL]

doesn't matter how far freaking Oregon has to march down the field they more then likely gonna score. DONT PUNT THE BALL

 

[ibvolman]

Worley's accuracy is terrible. He hasn't thrown but one pass that was truly on target all game.

 

[CA_Vol]

Another Palardy gem!

He only punts it 50+ when we don't need him to.

 

[YankeeVol]

I knew it was gonna be bad....just not this bad this quick

 

[BJWeeks]

Someone needs to get a helmet to helmet on Mariota

 

[mccrackb]

Our OL is less than impressive to say the least.

We folks have a chicken caller calling this game. Just hope it changes when he gets personel doubt it though

 

[wherewolf]

You guys are ridiculous. You complain how awful Worley is. And then complain why we aren't going for it on our own side of the field? Oregon is better than us. That's it.

No question, dummy. That's why they are 4 TD faves. So, why punt on 4th and 1? Go for it. Have the brains to at least try when it was close...

 

[governmentmule]

I wish. We can punt it into the endzone though.

it does make you wonder,what ever happened to the coffin corner kick

 

[SmokinBob]

Time for the D to score!!!

 

[revjayp]

Is Chaney in the box???

 

[17Vols]

i'm still pretty happy with the guys effort.

 

[volunteernation16]

punting clearly has not worked the whole game. tenn has nothing to lose

 

[92volalum]

Punting is stupid we haven't stopped them one time.... can't run play calling suspect

 

[patrick]

I wish. We can punt it into the endzone though.

kick punt
tomato tomato

 

[AlumniChase]

And it begins... We start doubting butch in game 3 after praising his every move prior to now. Wonder how bad it's gonna get around here when we lose 6-7 of the next 10. We have no talent guys, Butch is just trying to keep it respectable.

 

[OrangeSquid]

What is killing us is Oregon's speed and our lack of execution (Worley's play/passing IS killing us), not the O line, not coaching.

 

[VolStudent5]

Someone needs to get a helmet to helmet on Mariota

stay classy

 

[Ez_Vol]

Butch doesn't have the tools on the field to win. And he knows it.

Butch has made several decisions showing that he doesn't want to win. 4th and 1 is the one that I can't understand. And, not accepting the penalty

 

[golf437]

Our coaches are cowards.

Stupid comment.

 

[17Vols]

has anyone else just turned this into a drinkin game??

 

[rocketskates]

Boo the injured player. Lots of class Oregon fans...

 

[vSphereGuy]

Bj's plan. Keep it close to the forth...keep the D fresh...Let those not in the game a chance to be there late.

Its not even close in the 2nd.
