Is this thing on?  :powert:

Quite simply, our tackling sucked and they ran it down our throat on that drive.

Took a shot at making homemade blooming onions and they are AMAZING.   :thumbup:

Have we forgotten how to tackle in the past two weeks? It's not like they've got Barry Sanders' moves either- we're just missing.

I’d like to revise my prediction. They are gashing us with the run. If that doesn’t change it’ll be Kentucky by 10+

Just got in from the woods, and there's talk of food, but nary a recipe. This is troubling.

C'mon, Defense!  What in the world?

Internet service worse than Neyland

What happened on the fumble. Looked like Small has a lane

QB mishandled the RPO action and dropped it, looked like to me.

We can't stop them and we the D is only gonna get more tired as this continues. I don't like the looks of this.


Title: Re: Game Thread.....
Post by: murfvol on November 07, 2021, 01:34:11 EST
I'll take the very legit interference call as payment for the flop.

That was not going to be a first down if there was a catch.


Title: Re: Game Thread.....
Post by: murfvol on November 07, 2021, 01:35:10 EST
Huge answer!


Title: Re: Game Thread.....
Post by: JeffCountyVolFan on November 07, 2021, 01:36:31 EST
Gotta stop them here and figure something out on D at the half.


Title: Re: Game Thread.....
Post by: droner on November 07, 2021, 01:47:39 EST
My goodness, if we just a little bit stronger on defense. 


Title: Re: Game Thread.....
Post by: tshadow on November 07, 2021, 01:48:24 EST
That could be a very huge three.


Title: Re: Game Thread.....

Nice 70 second drill


Title: Re: Game Thread.....
Post by: Black Diamond Vol on November 07, 2021, 01:49:05 EST
3 point lead to the locker room? I'll take it. It could've bee a LOT worse. :dunno:

The fake injury didn’t matter

How do I know it was a FAKE injury??

Glad you asked

We had Slaughter on their best receiver once
Big mismatch

Title: Re: Game Thread.....

Concur with tshadow and BDV. That 3 is gigantic. A game where the winner has 40 favors us...I think.

The snap wasn't great, but everyone kept it together.

Oh, and many thanks to droner for starting this thread.

We need to take the ball away from them. We got some players back but they are just about all of them... playing gingerly.

My God how did they miss that holding? :banghead:

USCe up 30-10 on the Gators at the half.  :clap: :clap: :clap:


Title: Re: Game Thread.....
Post by: murfvol on November 07, 2021, 02:16:38 EST
Blatant hold on the long pass, but an abysmal job of tackling on the toss to their TE. Didn't get the number, but think it was a safety.


Title: Re: Game Thread.....
Post by: murfvol on November 07, 2021, 02:20:53 EST
No horsecollar on Holiday's return? That's tough to miss.


Title: Re: Game Thread.....
Post by: droner on November 07, 2021, 02:21:53 EST
I guess that if you score every time you have the ball, time of possession doesn't matter.

The key, of course, is to score every time you have the ball.  :rolleyes:


Title: Re: Game Thread.....
Post by: VinnieVOL on November 07, 2021, 02:23:54 EST
Our poor defense barely has time to get a drank.

And not turn the ball over.

He should definitely be able to recruit some offensive players.  This offense is fun to watch, even though it wears the defense out every game. 


Title: Re: Game Thread.....
Post by: Black Diamond Vol on November 07, 2021, 02:26:41 EST

And force a turnover or two. Or failing that, have the ball last. :dunno:

Title: Re: Game Thread.....
Post by: JeffCountyVolFan on November 07, 2021, 02:34:58 EST
The blitz off that side made that the hot read.  The QB is taught to throw to the side of the blitz in hot situations and Taylor was in perfect position!!!!


Title: Re: Game Thread.....
Post by: BanditVol on November 07, 2021, 02:38:26 EST
That int was overdue.  Theo missed one behind the line, then no. 4 had it hit him right in the chest and dropped it. 

We are in great shape, but a lot of time left.  :powert:

Stay two scores up


Title: Re: Game Thread.....

We need some more hosses on our defense.

Tillman was held on 3rd down


Title: Re: Game Thread.....
Post by: PirateVOL on November 07, 2021, 02:48:44 EST
We are missing a lot of tackles at or behind d the LOS


Title: Re: Game Thread.....
Post by: JeffCountyVolFan on November 07, 2021, 02:50:53 EST
Time of possession:  37:15 to 7:45


Title: Re: Game Thread.....
Post by: Creek Walker on November 07, 2021, 02:55:26 EST
Kentucky is 11 of 13 on 3rd down. Our D is outmanned but at some point you just have to execute. Our 3rd down defense is atrocious.


Title: Re: Game Thread.....

We’ve missed some picks tonight

That holding penalty was critical on their last drive.  I know that's not some huge revelation, I'm just saying.   :banghead:


Title: Re: Game Thread.....
Post by: murfvol on November 07, 2021, 02:57:31 EST
Do NOT let them convert 3rd and 20, or get close enough to try on 4th down. This concludes today's statement of the obvious.


Title: Re: Game Thread.....
Post by: murfvol on November 07, 2021, 03:00:20 EST
HUGE sack!


Title: Re: Game Thread.....

Great catch by Tillman! Now it's fake injury time.:(


Title: Re: Game Thread.....
Post by: JeffCountyVolFan on November 07, 2021, 03:04:27 EST
Perfect read and throw by Hooker. 


Title: Re: Game Thread.....
Post by: murfvol on November 07, 2021, 03:04:44 EST
And now we do our standard XP fake injury to give the defense a breather.


Title: Re: Game Thread.....
Post by: murfvol on November 07, 2021, 03:24:04 EST
2nd and goal at the 5 to a missed FG. Gotta be kidding.


Title: Re: Game Thread.....
Post by: JeffCountyVolFan on November 07, 2021, 03:25:38 EST
And now its all on the defense!!!!  Go VOLS!!!!


Title: Re: Game Thread.....
Post by: Black Diamond Vol on November 07, 2021, 03:38:12 EST
We should've been using our timeouts on this drive.


Title: Re: Game Thread.....
Post by: droner on November 07, 2021, 03:41:01 EST
We may not be able to stop a 4th and 24 but we can stop a 4th and 10.  :laugh:

We gave up over 600 yards on 99 plays and still get the W!!!  That is unbelievable.  Great win for this team.

The defense is going to need some rest.

Reminds me of all those Dooley games in 2012 (shudder).  Except, you know, we won this one.   :naughty:
