Go VOLS!

Way to answer back Offense, and nice job overcoming that 1st&20!

Way too many missed tackles by the D.  It’s almost to the level of keystone cops.

I don’t recall ever seeing a softer SEC team than this one.

Yet another head shaker of a call by Helton

I guess Helton just had his weekly WTF moment. 🙄

Oddly, I'm encouraged by the offense.

The soft bigotry of low expectations

Nice throw, nice catch know your going to get hit

Taylor with an apparent bust (not in the stadium more diffcult to see the coverage)
two straight 3rd downs we couldn't get off the field

Running game absent

Pass blocking seems improved, at least fewer outright busts

Three (3) STRAIGHT runs for losses! :banghead:

Infuriating. He was staring at the freaking first down marker. Just run to the **** thing.

Nice punt cures a lot of ills

We telegraphed the blitz, they checked into protection, we blitzed and still got pressure to force an incompletion and also save a TO


Title: Re: Game Thread: Auburn
Post by: PirateVOL on October 13, 2018, 07:24:07 EDT
For once JG felt the pressure and got rid of the ball

I'm ok with the half score, but once again we shoot ourselves in the foot with penalties.   Happy to see the D picking off 2 passes... gifts for sure.

After the second pick, two straight runs up the middle not a good idea.  Go for the throat man!   :redface:

But overall pleased with the effort and looking forward to second half.  Tennessee starting to resemble an SEC team, if slowly.   :powert:

If there's one pressing change that Pruitt has to make after this season, it's to find himself an SEC-level play caller.

Eight tackles behind the line of scrimmage by Auburn. Helton's insistence on establishing a run game that's just not there today is going to get him beat.


Title: Re: Game Thread: Auburn
Post by: Creek Walker on October 13, 2018, 08:13:11 EDT
Tennessee's receivers are making some nice catches. Five guys with receptions of 20+ yards. They're still lackluster in run support but this unit has come so far this season.

Nice throw and catch!

I don't want to hear another **** word about Keller Chryst. Jarrett Guarantano's back-shoulder throws are spot on. Every. Single. Time. He knows he's gonna get hit but he just keeps standing in there and slinging it. I like this kid a lot.

SWARM to the ball

SWARM to the ball

In the 1st half, this bad (by Malzahn standards, anyway) Auburn offense had 288 yards. Tennessee's tackling technique and pursuit anglers were poor.

In the 2nd half, Auburn has 38 yards of offense and -3 rushing yards. There's more aggression than there has been all season. Suddenly, these boys in white look like an SEC-caliber defense.

Jennings leading the team in reception yards - keep it up! :powert:
I think JJ is back!

Biggest difference, fewer missed tackles and they are swarming, like the Chief's defenses in the 90s :powert:

Like to have had 7 but points on the board are good :powert:
Hold them, get another score of any time on the board and then pin our ears back

Kind of nice to see someone else struggling besides us. Makes you wonder what is wrong with AU and does Malzahn survive this?  Don't care.  :clap:
