Top 3 worst plays in UT history

[lukeneyland]

Is it not tough enough on us Vols fans already without all of yall making all these depressing threads?

 

[Ape82008]

Why would you talk about this? Can't we be positive about our team?

 

[VOLINVONORE]

have to put lame Kitten's hire in there with CDD....:salute:

I agree with Ford's fumble against UGA closely followed by the field goal block by USC which led to their game winning field goal the same year. We should have won both games but lost both. Horrible beginning to a season. Unfortunately, I attended both of those games.

Top 3 worst plays? Top implies some sort of positive spin on a negative phenomenon. Sort of like asking us to name the top 3 ugliest women in the world, instead of the 3 ugliest. And why limit it to only 3?

Surely, in the history of UT football, there have been more than 3 ugly plays. So why not just ask for opinions on the Bottom 10?

Did Von Reeves fumble against alabubba on the goal line as he was going I. For the winning touch down? Help me remember guys!

 

[vol-un-tear]

Every time Dooley called the end around to Rogers or Hunter more than once in a game.

We missed a chip shot field goal in the Orange Bowl that would have beaten Oklahoma in the late 60's.

Kremser's kick was in excess of 40 yards (43 yards, according to the record books). Not sure how you define "chip shot" but that hardly is my definition of one.

Fosters fumble against AL,that went for a touch back instead of a touchdown

I forgot the quarterback, it against I believe LSU, threw the ball while being tackled in the end zone and was picked off.

Running a play right before half time and bray broke his thumb...

Good grief, this post is just full of half-baked statements masquerading as facts.

Corey Anderson fumbled the ball in 2005, not Foster. Bet you hate Arian Foster because you thought he fumbled the ball all these years.

Ainge is the QB who slung the ball out of the endzone (2005 season). You do remember we did manage to come back and win that game in OT.

Bray never broke his thumb on a play right before the end of the half. This sounds like you are remembering the play in the 2004 Notre Dame game when Eric Ainge ran a play right before the end of the half and injured his knee. Tennessee had no business even running a play before the end of the half. They were way down on their end of the field and were ahead 10-7.

Karl Krimser made that FG it was a bad call

The kickoff return by Memphis St in 96 cost us an at large bid in the Orange or Fiesta.

UT gives up 4 and 10 to Jamarcus Russell with less than 1 minutes at Neyland

4 and 3 against UCLA and Kiffins calls a run at home

Mizzou is 4th and 10 and scores a TD.... Dooley's fate sealed

 

[GBO97]

1. 13 men on field in 2010 LSU game.
2. Lincoln kicking it into fat boy Cody's gut in 09 Alabama game.
3. Ainge throwing it over his own shoulder from our own endzone vs. LSU.

There's always gotta be that guy... Thankfully here at VN we have a ton of em.:hi:

 

[GetEmVols]

1.) kiffin hire
2.) Dooley hire
3.) the Bruce pearl fire

Denarius Moore's bread basket drop against VA Tech in the Chic-Fil-A bowl was pretty bad. It was the most disappointing play I've ever seen.

The last drive against LSU in '06 was sickening, but the refs botched a call on a late fumble that might have sealed a win for us in that game.

 

[QVOL81]

Well besides the LSU game with 13 men on the field, but plenty of people have established that.

 

[QVOL81]

1.) kiffin hire
2.) Dooley hire
3.) the Bruce pearl fire

move all those down, and put Fulmer firing number 1

 

[duckman398686]

move all those down, and put Fulmer firing number 1

Firing Fulmer wasn't as much of a mistake as all the botched moves that were made afterwards. Especially Dooley.

The fumble thru the endzone against Bama that could have sealed the game. A few years back but cant remember the year exactly...Bama when down and kicked a long field goal after a long 3rd down pass completion with time running out... ..

1 Mike Hamilton hire 2. LAME KIFFIN HIRE . 3. clueless Derek Dooless hire. Without these , 2 of those dont happen. Why cant UT sue Hamiltonfor criminal incomptence? I am not a lawyer, so educate me. Cant something be done?

 

[Vol4life25]

In recent memory, I have never been so frustrated at our special teams as I was when Joe Adams of Arky made all 11 players miss him....twice.

Yeah every time I am on the Arkansas Board and make a comment they always post a video of that play......They are so proud of that 10 seconds of fame. One time I replied back with the 98 fumble video.....That shut them up. Lol

 

[GoVols-Manning]

I was thinking Clausens fumble on the 1 going in for the lead right before halftime vs Ga in 2003. They returned it 90+ yards for TD.

This was horrrible..Also another one was I forget the name but the FB Fumbling it off his knee into the back of the endzone against BAMA.

Corey Anderson maybe?

 

[DownTheField]

Clint Stoerner's fumble... oh, wait a minute..
