You Can Change ONE Play

Starting Peterman at Florida. I think we win if Worley was in the game at the beginning. (Just to be different, but Pig fumble is #1)

I'd take ANY play that kept us from beating Candy…Pig's penalty, the long pass to Matthews that got them inside the 20 against us at the end…

The overturned 4th down was the RIGHT CALL by the officials…

Pig's fumble against UGA was not a guarantee of victory, as UGA still had the next possession…but it did hurt…

Anyway--just opinion….:peace2:

Tough one between these 3;

Pigs fumble against UGA.
Pigs block in the back against Vandy.
Overturned 4th down call against Vandy.

On UGA's final drive they converted a 3rd and 6 for 30+ yards to get inside the 10. I would choose that play over the Pig fumble.

Same here. Stop that play, and the Vols most likely win in regulation.

That or the 4th and 1 overturn on Vandy.

The pass to Jordan Matthews in the Vandy game that put them inside the 10 yard line. That ball was completely interceptable and that was probably one of two or three plays all season where Cam Sutton looked like a true freshman.

Or Aaron Murray's long run in the 4th quater that went for 30-40 yards. That play was the only reason they tied the game. We were playing well on that drive until that play.

I didn't go back and watch the play again after it happened as I was honestly of no mind to want to see it but I remember watching the play unfold and got the impression that UT was in a cover D and Sutton released from his zone when he saw nobody picked up Matthews.

They threw that to McNeil's side and he's been suspect in coverage through much of the year.

Regardless of immediate responsibility that's really the only play I can remember where Sutton has looked bad.

The real brain fart was starting Peterman against UF on the road with a healthy Worley being benched.

Butch was too quick to cave into pressure.

The pig fumble was big but UGA gets the ball back and probably scores.

The pig block in the back was a bigger play. But does he score without it?

I don't mind the overturn of the 4th down spot. They got the call right - just did it the wrong way. Very similar to how we beat vandy in OT a couple years back.

I don't think you know what "supposed" means.

sup·posed
adjective \sə-ˈpōzd; 1b & 2a usually -ˈpō-zəd, 3 & 4 often -ˈpōst\

: claimed to be true or real
Full Definition of SUPPOSED
1
a : pretended <twelve hours are supposed to elapse between Acts I and II — A. S. Sullivan>
b : alleged <trusted my supposed friends>
2
a : held as an opinion : believed; also : mistakenly believed : imagined <the sight which makes supposed terror true — Shakespeare>

Yes, the refs "claimed the fumble to be true or real". I, however, believe Pig had control of the ball with his left hand after he let go of it with the right hand and did not lose posession until well after he crossed the goal line.

Pig's catch vs. Vandy in the 4th quarter that was overturned. Cost us a first down, a lot of momentum, and at least 1:30 of clock time. I think 4:00 or so was on the clock at the time.

Total bogus overturn. He had possession, tucked the ball into the opposite arm to secure for the landing, and they called it a bobble.

We were pushing it down their throats at the time. There's no 3rd and 1 failure on our part and no 4th and 1 overturn on their part if the replay guy doesn't blow that call.

That was actually in the 3rd quarter and UT held them to a FG. Big run that got them points on the board.

Are you implying Butch benched Worley because of external/fan pressure?

Butch played Peterman because Worley wasn't tucking the ball on the read option and he thought a few qb runs with a safe passing game might win the game, as UF and other teams didn't have to defend the qb run. He also kept noticing how blatantly timid and scared Worley was looking and he was never running. Actually, after the benching, he made more plays with his legs.
Peterman hadn't shown any indication in practice that he would too go into a deer in headlights mode and the turnovers basically sent him and everyone into shock.
**** happens. He was trying to win and at the time, Worley hadn't shown that he could beat anyone. However you look at it, Worley came back playing better, for whatever reason, and beat a top 10 team in the process, while using his feet on a couple of big 3rd downs.
