If it's week three and part of your job is to pronounce Iamaleava, but you can't, that's lazy.

Before the 3rd down play Pili went in for Telander and coach Ing was coaching Teelander up on the sideline

That was a beautiful pass.

My goodness Nico can throw the deep ball

That was a beautiful pass.

Clausen was terrific, and Bray was accurate deep, but neither can touch Nico right now

What percentage of their athletic budget is Kent State getting paid for this beat down?


Title: Re: Game Thread: Kent State 2024
Post by: murfvol on September 15, 2024, 02:32:09 EDT
Have we verified they have an athletic department?

An onside kick? That's almost mean.  :biggrin:

Post by: Black Diamond Vol on September 15, 2024, 02:35:51 EDT
Onside kick?

Someone on that sideline must?ve pissed off CJH. :confused:

I feel bad about the kick.

Remember when we put 35 on Arkansas in the first quarter in 2000? Gonna surpass that

Me too. A little. But I?ll get over it. :naughty:

Holding? I don't think that's necessary.

Too early to pull the starters?

And there's the record. Like BDV, I'm getting over the onside.

Then just have Lampley roll around on the turf in agony for 10 minutes like we always do.  :biggrin:

I have a sneaking suspicion we're playing Bishop Sycamore.

We are running a new variant of 12s
We are running dual H backs so no strong side to defend

Take him out. He's taking too many hits. This game is over.

Explains passing on Joly. Heupel's TEs have to block.

We have tied our scoring output for the previous game

We're really good, but this is the worst opponent I've ever seen in Neyland.   :dielaughing:

Yea, they aren't good. I don't have anything against Kent State. In fact, I sort of feel sorry for them.

But they signed up for this paycheck. So they have to take the beating.

It's the law.

Bullshizzle call

Thomas probably knew he was about to sit anyway and decided to go out in a blaze of glory. But we don?t need any of those in the 2nd half- I don?t want anyone suspended for OU next week.


Title: Re: Game Thread: Kent State 2024
Post by: PirateVOL on September 15, 2024, 03:25:31 EDT
Your 2nd team offense just went 90 yards in 5 plays for a TD

since this is the 1st half he can play all game next week


Title: Re: Game Thread: Kent State 2024
Post by: Black Diamond Vol on September 15, 2024, 03:26:47 EDT
We might see a running clock and/or 10 minute quarters in the 2nd half.


Title: Re: Game Thread: Kent State 2024
Post by: murfvol on September 15, 2024, 03:27:27 EDT
Dumb question. What are rules for a running clock?


Title: Re: Game Thread: Kent State 2024
Post by: PirateVOL on September 15, 2024, 03:27:49 EDT
I have BAD news
They had to pull Nico before the half ended ?
Sad, sad times ? :naughty:

I know, that?s what I was saying. Don?t need any of that after halftime.

FWIW the wind is affecting the kicks
It?s out of the South

I?m not sure, but a couple of SEC teams have done it already this year. Here?s another question: how does it impact a betting line? If I bet the Vols to cover, which they?re going to do, would my bet be voided since the whole 60 minutes isn?t getting played?

That happened last weekend. I forget the game but the quarters were shortened and many of the betting sites refused to pay off.

VERY nice
Their defender landed such that his knee may have been super extended - hope he is ok

What the heck is going on in Lex?

They did a studio cut in for the FG that ended the half

I dunno...he looked really sheepish to me after the play, I think it was unintentional
