Trying too hard. Like the effort. Nobody else gives a sh......

No one else does seem to give a crap, except Lane.

Somebody please explain this. I understand losing to UA. They are the best in the nation. But I was hoping for more fight in that game, and now we're getting rolled by MO. After we played so well against UGA and then beat SC, how has it fallen apart like this?

 

[jhcrane14]

Nice hit.

 

[theutvolunteers]

O-line looks PATHETIC.

 

[1972 Grad]

At least the defense doesn't look lost, slow, and confused like they did under Sal.

 

[rocketskates]

It's so frustrating because we get the ball after half.
A score puts us down by 14 and a score after half makes
It a 7 point ball game and then .....

 

[HardKnoxVol]

I can't even count the missed tackles anymore.

Or penalties.....

 

[VolFreakJosh]

Hurd, Kelly Jr., Wharton, Gaulden, and the rest of the 2014 recruiting class can't come soon enough.

Missouri QB not playing smart. Why are they not striking shorter to get within field goal range? Not smart play clock on the QB or coaching staff. I will be glad for them to blow this possession going into the half.

It hurts me to say this but the Vols look like a team that's mailed it in for the season.

Ummmmm No...

We're just not very good

 

[BallinVol]

Did we get "Tiny" jinxed? We are nowhere close to a win as of now. Let's hope Mizzou blows another big lead...

 

[17Vols]

secondary is garbage

 

[IluvdoubleD's]

I feel a pick coming.

 

[UTK]

Full Butch or not this is sorry. Better be a better second half.

I hate to say it too but this is the first time it appears like they aren't trying like they have all season so far. I usually watch and get excited about whats going on(except for last week even though they continued to fight all game) every game, but I don't feel the intensity so far. Maybe it'll be a diff 2 half, I'm hoping/praying for it.

 

[SALAMANDER DRAKE]

Hey, anybody want to start, lets make fun of Auburn thread?

 

[YankeeVol]

:disappointed:

That was exactly my thinking.

 

[RoaminVol]

Lane and Hurd will be 4 nasty next year

I understand but were still making progress.

 

[hardyemt_p]

secondary getting beat like they stole something

 

[nomads-11]

The offense isn't bad. The defense and drops are.

I'll second that...pretty much called it att.

This is a team that can compete. They can WIN this game. And they're just not playing well. That's just so frustrating.

 

[MiramarVol]

O-line looks PATHETIC.

Defense is right there neck and neck.

 

[ice]

I vote defensive coordinator.
Play by our defense is deplorable.

We suck!.
