Title: Re: Game Thread: South Carolina 2022 Post by: murfvol on November 20, 2022, 01:14:21 EST Don't.get.so.far.upfield. Rushing past quasi -mobile QBs isn't helpful.
Title: Re: Game Thread: South Carolina 2022 Post by: PirateVOL on November 20, 2022, 01:16:36 EST They faked a sweep to the left and nobody covered him
Fortunately we flush rather to the right Title: Re: Game Thread: South Carolina 2022 Post by: PirateVOL on November 20, 2022, 01:20:01 EST We were in zone on 4th down
Tank slow as molasses On the TD, did anyone cover the RB? Opposite corner from my seat Title: Re: Game Thread: South Carolina 2022 Post by: PirateVOL on November 20, 2022, 01:24:23 EST That’s more like it
Hell of a job by the center of the line Title: Re: Game Thread: South Carolina 2022 Post by: PirateVOL on November 20, 2022, 01:26:32 EST They were paying a LOT of attention to Hyatt
Title: Re: Game Thread: South Carolina 2022 Post by: PirateVOL on November 20, 2022, 01:28:59 EST Beasley has to make that tackle
Title: Re: Game Thread: South Carolina 2022 Post by: murfvol on November 20, 2022, 01:31:43 EST That's a helpful penalty.
Title: Re: Game Thread: South Carolina 2022 Post by: murfvol on November 20, 2022, 01:32:39 EST Or not. Let's not make Rattler look like we made Richardson look.
Title: Re: Game Thread: South Carolina 2022 Post by: PirateVOL on November 20, 2022, 01:32:55 EST Tank again
Title: Re: Game Thread: South Carolina 2022 Post by: PirateVOL on November 20, 2022, 01:33:53 EST Not a bad play by Slaughter with a safety over the top
But … Title: Re: Game Thread: South Carolina 2022 Post by: murfvol on November 20, 2022, 01:35:07 EST I am really hoping Christian Harrison and some of the freshmen can shore up the secondary quickly next year.
Gotta do a better job of getting home with the rush too. Title: Re: Game Thread: South Carolina 2022 Post by: PirateVOL on November 20, 2022, 01:35:26 EST So much for taking the crowd out of the game
Title: Re: Game Thread: South Carolina 2022 Post by: JeffCountyVolFan on November 20, 2022, 01:37:17 EST It’s not like we didn’t expect them to throw that football tonight, is it?

Title: Re: Game Thread: South Carolina 2022 Post by: PirateVOL on November 20, 2022, 01:43:07 EST Zero pressure
Title: Re: Game Thread: South Carolina 2022 Post by: murfvol on November 20, 2022, 01:44:20 EST Nice play on the ball Turnage
Title: Re: Game Thread: South Carolina 2022 Post by: PirateVOL on November 20, 2022, 01:45:39 EST No pressure and our secondary can’t cover nor tackle
Title: Re: Game Thread: South Carolina 2022 Post by: PirateVOL on November 20, 2022, 01:46:10 EST Nice play on the ball Turnage he knew the play and covered it wellTitle: Re: Game Thread: South Carolina 2022 Post by: PirateVOL on November 20, 2022, 01:46:45 EST 2nd they brought the back out and nobody covered him
Title: Re: Game Thread: South Carolina 2022 Post by: PirateVOL on November 20, 2022, 01:51:15 EST We have Hyatt and Squirrel in the game
Title: Re: Game Thread: South Carolina 2022 Post by: VinnieVOL on November 20, 2022, 01:51:48 EST Why did the clock keep running to end the qtr? We got a 1st down...

On first and goal Walker read it well and the ran right by the runner Walker was in at Star that drive Haden and Turnage at corners The usual suspects at safety Is 5 their B/U QB or just a wildcat guy? Title: Re: Game Thread: South Carolina 2022 Post by: murfvol on November 20, 2022, 02:11:11 EST Mitchell whiffed on the long run, but there's plenty of blame to go around.

Title: Re: Game Thread: South Carolina 2022 Post by: PirateVOL on November 20, 2022, 02:16:42 EST Sampson in the game
Title: Re: Game Thread: South Carolina 2022 Post by: PirateVOL on November 20, 2022, 02:22:01 EST Looked like classic targeting to me
Crown of the helmet Title: Re: Game Thread: South Carolina 2022 Post by: murfvol on November 20, 2022, 02:28:03 EST Fatigue has not been the cause of our defensive woes. Just make a stop before the half.
Title: Re: Game Thread: South Carolina 2022 Post by: BanditVol on November 20, 2022, 02:29:19 EST Fatigue has not been the cause of our defensive woes.

Just make a stop before the half. Probably just a lack of talent ? In most cases Title: Re: Game Thread: South Carolina 2022 Post by: PirateVOL on November 20, 2022, 02:38:54 EST Charles in for Turnage

In most cases That's definitely a factor, but surely South Carolina wouldn't be the one to expose it this badly. I like the upside of Charles. Title: Re: Game Thread: South Carolina 2022 Post by: murfvol on November 20, 2022, 02:43:18 EST Upside isn't the present.
Title: Re: Game Thread: South Carolina 2022 Post by: murfvol on November 20, 2022, 02:44:12 EST I genuinely don't know if I've ever seen any game where one team scores TDs every possession in a half.
Title: Re: Game Thread: South Carolina 2022 Post by: PirateVOL on November 20, 2022, 02:44:16 EST Right in front of me
Not at all sure what the fizzle Charles was doing Title: Re: Game Thread: South Carolina 2022 Post by: droner on November 20, 2022, 02:45:26 EST I'm not an expert but I think that it probably would help if our defensive backs looked for the ball.
Title: Re: Game Thread: South Carolina 2022 Post by: PirateVOL on November 20, 2022, 02:54:18 EST The good news
They didn’t score on that possession :naughty: Title: Re: Game Thread: South Carolina 2022 Post by: murfvol on November 20, 2022, 02:55:22 EST Would you be willing to instruct these young men on said principle for $750k/annually?
Title: Re: Game Thread: South Carolina 2022 Post by: PirateVOL on November 20, 2022, 03:00:32 EST They do a far better job saluti g the troops than we do

Title: Re: Game Thread: South Carolina 2022 Post by: VinnieVOL on November 20, 2022, 03:09:52 EST What a weird day in college football.
Title: Re: Game Thread: South Carolina 2022 Post by: JeffCountyVolFan on November 20, 2022, 03:09:56 EST That’s the most disappointed in a first half of football in a while. Of course for years there wasn’t a lot of hope, but that half hurt my heart.
Title: Re: Game Thread: South Carolina 2022 Post by: PirateVOL on November 20, 2022, 03:22:32 EST Haden and Slaughter were the corners
The usual suspects at safety 3 and out, a start Title: Re: Game Thread: South Carolina 2022 Post by: PirateVOL on November 20, 2022, 03:23:49 EST Mincey has gone all the way at LT
Title: Re: Game Thread: South Carolina 2022 Post by: BanditVol on November 20, 2022, 03:28:41 EST Nice stop by the D. (FINALLY!)
Now offense needs to get it back. Should have scored on that first drive. Just hope the defense is due to adjustments and that it continues Title: Re: Game Thread: South Carolina 2022 Post by: PirateVOL on November 20, 2022, 03:34:37 EST Defense playing better
Though that is faint praise Title: Re: Game Thread: South Carolina 2022 Post by: BanditVol on November 20, 2022, 03:35:12 EST THATS MORE LIKE IT!!!
Now stop them again D Title: Re: Game Thread: South Carolina 2022 Post by: PirateVOL on November 20, 2022, 03:36:37 EST 15+ yard cushion
Title: Re: Game Thread: South Carolina 2022 Post by: PirateVOL on November 20, 2022, 03:39:12 EST A big issue with the secondary is ZERO pressure on the QB
Title: Re: Game Thread: South Carolina 2022 Post by: PirateVOL on November 20, 2022, 03:42:18 EST I stood here and called #3 getting the ball
It was that obvious Title: Re: Game Thread: South Carolina 2022 Post by: Creek Walker on November 20, 2022, 03:44:13 EST Can we freakin leave Willie Martinez in Columbia? This is embarrassing.
Title: Re: Game Thread: South Carolina 2022 Post by: PirateVOL on November 20, 2022, 03:44:16 EST A couple of notes
Haden is the boundary corner and Slaughter the field corner Haden needs to STFU and play better! :bird: He always barki g after the (first down) catch Title: Re: Game Thread: South Carolina 2022 Post by: PirateVOL on November 20, 2022, 03:52:04 EST Cocks seem to have a LOT of injuries in the first half 9 “cramped” up and then STAYED in the game!
Title: Re: Game Thread: South Carolina 2022 Post by: PirateVOL on November 20, 2022, 03:56:57 EST Pitt game all over again
Title: Re: Game Thread: South Carolina 2022 Post by: tshadow on November 20, 2022, 03:57:15 EST Where is the leadership? This may be the first game where we pay for our poor defense.
Title: Re: Game Thread: South Carolina 2022 Post by: PirateVOL on November 20, 2022, 03:59:05 EST Charles is in for Hadden
Title: Re: Game Thread: South Carolina 2022 Post by: Creek Walker on November 20, 2022, 03:59:32 EST This is a total choke job. Not one single position on the field playing well.
Title: Re: Game Thread: South Carolina 2022 Post by: JeffCountyVolFan on November 20, 2022, 04:00:00 EST Rattler has flat outplayed Hooker tonight. He's looked really good.
Title: Re: Game Thread: South Carolina 2022 Post by: wtkvol on November 20, 2022, 04:01:29 EST This is a total choke job. Not one single position on the field playing well. Not one.

LBs both will poor drops Title: Re: Game Thread: South Carolina 2022 Post by: murfvol on November 20, 2022, 04:04:21 EST 3rd and 20? Really?

Title: Re: Game Thread: South Carolina 2022 Post by: JeffCountyVolFan on November 20, 2022, 04:05:10 EST That was pathetic!
Title: Re: Game Thread: South Carolina 2022 Post by: PirateVOL on November 20, 2022, 04:05:20 EST Not sure why Bru isn’t playing
We subbed him out in the middle of a series and he hasn’t Ben in the last 2 drives Though he has his helmet on Also, for the first time we have gone 4 wideouts at times Title: Re: Game Thread: South Carolina 2022 Post by: murfvol on November 20, 2022, 04:10:18 EST Have we considered just forcing a field goal?

Their PA system with the refs is worse than Neyland Baron, supposedly. Title: Re: Game Thread: South Carolina 2022 Post by: wtkvol on November 20, 2022, 04:16:46 EST Rattler has flat outplayed Hooker tonight. He's looked really good. And it is not even close.

Title: Re: Game Thread: South Carolina 2022 Post by: tshadow on November 20, 2022, 04:24:44 EST Note to self: We've been playing with house money... No it doesn't work. Not at the hands of SCjr.
Title: Re: Game Thread: South Carolina 2022 Post by: PirateVOL on November 20, 2022, 04:25:02 EST Milton and the receivers had a long discussion
Title: Re: Game Thread: South Carolina 2022 Post by: PirateVOL on November 20, 2022, 04:26:01 EST Hooker still in the tent
Title: Re: Game Thread: South Carolina 2022 Post by: murfvol on November 20, 2022, 04:26:40 EST Practice the rest of the year. Absolutely. It stinks, but this will let us know what we have before the bullets start flying next fall. Title: Re: Game Thread: South Carolina 2022 Post by: droner on November 20, 2022, 04:27:24 EST We put it off as long as we could. A poor defense was bound to catch up with us at some point.
Tonight was the night. Title: Re: Game Thread: South Carolina 2022 Post by: wtkvol on November 20, 2022, 04:36:56 EST Absolutely. It stinks, but this will let us know what we have before the bullets start flying next fall. We know what we have. We need a defensive coach with some bite. I don’t think our head coach has any. He is responsible for this. This performance does not surprise anyone . We just hoped it would not hhappen now. Title: Re: Game Thread: South Carolina 2022 Post by: JeffCountyVolFan on November 20, 2022, 04:38:29 EST 8/9 …… TDs/possessions
Title: Re: Game Thread: South Carolina 2022 Post by: murfvol on November 20, 2022, 04:41:23 EST We know what we have. We need a defensive coach with some bite. I don’t think our head coach has any. He is responsible for this. This performance does not surprise anyone I meant at QB, but agree we absolutely have to fix the defense.. We just hoped it would not hhappen now. Title: Re: Game Thread: South Carolina 2022 Post by: PirateVOL on November 20, 2022, 04:45:34 EST Hooker just walked to the locker room
Sans jersey Walking pretty good, no. Noticeable limp Title: Re: Game Thread: South Carolina 2022 Post by: VinnieVOL on November 20, 2022, 04:49:18 EST Hooker just walked to the locker room Sans jersey Walking pretty good, no. Noticeable limp I’d be shocked if he wasn’t done. Title: Re: Game Thread: South Carolina 2022 Post by: murfvol on November 20, 2022, 04:55:54 EST Agree with comparisons to the '01 SEC Championship Game
Title: Re: Game Thread: South Carolina 2022 Post by: BanditVol on November 20, 2022, 05:04:11 EST Agree with comparisons to the '01 SEC Championship Game IN what way? This wasn't nearly as high stakes, I mean the regular season's not over. And 2001 was a close game. And LSU was a good team even though we were heavily favored. Title: Re: Game Thread: South Carolina 2022 Post by: Creek Walker on November 20, 2022, 05:07:31 EST IN what way? This wasn't nearly as high stakes, I mean the regular season's not over. And 2001 was a close game. And LSU was a good team even though we were heavily favored. Tonight is probably a worse loss than '01 LSU. We were a 23-point favorite. To have been beaten at all would've been one of the biggest upsets in program history. To get beat in the style in which we did...I just don't know how you even put words to that. LSU '01 was a pretty good team -- except they were playing a 3rd string QB and 2nd string RB. It was an inexcusable loss. And I think that's why the comparisons are being drawn. Both were inexcusable losses, given what was at stake. And, yes, the stakes were pretty damn close to the same in both games. Tonight wasn't for an SEC championship, but it was for a trip to the playoffs and the potential to play for a national championship. LSU '01 was for an appearance in the BCSNCG. Take away the SEC trophy, and the stakes are pretty similar. Title: Re: Game Thread: South Carolina 2022 Post by: murfvol on November 20, 2022, 05:11:15 EST Agree Creek. Both games would have allowed the Vols to advance toward a national title, but were thwarted by inferior competition.
It's not a perfect comparison, but there are similarities. Title: Re: Game Thread: South Carolina 2022 Post by: VinnieVOL on November 20, 2022, 08:03:07 EST I still don't fully agree on the 2001 comparison. That felt like the end of something.
This is, one would hope, the beginning of something. It's all been house money this year. No one expected is to win like we've won. A natty? No one could've imagined we'd be in that conversation. It was fun, and this is so disappointing... but 2001 was the collapse of something bigger than a single season. How can one say that about this year when this is only Heupels 2nd year? He's just getting started. Title: Re: Game Thread: South Carolina 2022 Post by: BanditVol on November 21, 2022, 12:13:32 EST Tonight is probably a worse loss than '01 LSU. We were a 23-point favorite. To have been beaten at all would've been one of the biggest upsets in program history.

Tonight wasn't for an SEC championship, but it was for a trip to the playoffs and the potential to play for a national championship. LSU '01 was for an appearance in the BCSNCG. Take away the SEC trophy, and the stakes are pretty similar. Win in 2001 and we are guranteed a trip to the MNC. Win this, we still have to beat vandy (very likely, but after last night :doh:), but we were in no way guaranteed a playoff spot. Likely maybe, but not a sure thing. But we are not disagreeing. This was a worst loss in light that USC is a bottom feeder and they flat out whipped our ass. I say as much above. Stakes were not quite as high in this one. Still high though. |
