The Official Tennessee vs. Vanderbilt Game Thread, 7:00pm ET(11/23/23), ESPN2

i agree with the kicking game. renewing the roster does no good if the coaches cant coach and so far I have not seen any teaching or coaching going on.

Like I said earlier, you never stop whining. Between you and catbone...it's amazing the whining from the two of you.

 

[CJBlaze]

these are the same plays we have been seeing since week 1. no imagination or anything. some games you have to pull out all stops if you want to win but this staff sticks to the plan and its a failure.

Exactly! Bajakin's play calls are so similar it looks like we're calling the same play.Also if you've got a Qb that you're not comfortable with throwing the ball past 15 yds, why play him? Put Peterman or Ferguson in!

 

[tnvols72]

My lord, no wonder you spend all your time here...you can't possibly be married with you whining like a ***** all the time.

poor kid , you must think this really is the best coaching staff in America. now get back in your playpen.

 

[BruiserVol]

I'm with everyone else in saying this. What happened during the whole two weeks we had to prepare? Franklin's game plan for us is lookin better than what we could come up with in a whole extra week.

Lol...genius comeback.... Smh

Get ready for the post game speech. "Unacceptable" "process". All you'll hear.

The play book is crap. I'm sorry but the qb situation blah blah everyone goes through that... Since day one these plays have sucked.

absolutely correct

 

[orangetaz]

The woman keeps saying back in nashville lol. Dont they know we are in knoxville?

to some degree it changes things to have better players though. Say those calls that Lane or Neal go down at linebacker when there is green in front of them. Hurd may break it to the house or Josh Smith dropping passes. Other receivers may make the catch or especially our gifted Tight ends that Butch has craved and we currently have zero tight end talent currently.

Yeah i can hear it now…"Are goal was a bowl game that is what we shot for and we gave a great effort I am proud of our seniors but we will learn from this because loosing is unacceptable to me and these seniors should not accept loosing

 

[armchair]

Why EXACTLY are we playing Dobbs rather than Ferguson or Peterman? Granted, Peterman played laughably bad against florida--talk about a dumb coaching decision, starting him for the first time at florida.

 

[ESPNHATESUS]

I think we need some kind of BAC indicator on the threads created during a game because oh my. It's just halftime people still a lot of football to be played. GBO

Arizona beat Oregon with 3 plays. It's execution that is lacking and I blame it on the overrated o line.

 

[Orange_Crush]

I still think we get worse every game.

Holding our opponent to 7 for a half is regression...?

 

[InfiniteVol]

Just a hypothetical question - could a coach like Saban have us playing much better at this point in his first season?

i can buy this

So you want to start him against the team that beat Florida?

 

[CoachClick]

I remember when Volnation was less whine...

I miss those days

scoring 7 points on offense IS…OL is getting worse you would think they come out ready to KILL them especially the seniors on that line

 

[BruiserVol]

Vandy has to throw robinette in there when carta-Samuels got hurt. Why weren't they calling crap plays for him? Heck they are using both qb's in this game and it's working. You tellin me theirs are better? Recruit rating says otherwise.

 

[OrangeFrog]

Wow. that time of possession is really bad.

 

[Chilmonty]

Yeah! Don't got to the "Official Negavol/Troll Thread"!

Every poster has 5,000+ posts and 2 "Likes", could be a reason for that!

[rocketskates]

It's half and we are tied, we knew Vandy was going to play us tough. There have been some mistakes that in my opinion cost us a 17-7 lead right now, but some of you act like we are losing by 40

I'll agree with the overrated o-line part!

Be prepared for the onside kick.
