Yep.  Quarterback play across the board in the SEC right now is about as bad as I ever remember.  I'm not even sure that Prescott is legit. Spread offenses have ruined QB play.  Gone are the days of a strong armed guy back there who is there to read defenses and get his team in the correct play.  Now it's about putting an "athlete" back there, making sure he can get the team to the line in 16 seconds after the previous play ends, and giving him an opportunity to make one read and then go.

Offensive football has evolved, and I am not so sure it has evolved for the better.       

It's why I call it X-Box football.

Hope my Cards make a bid of Freeman

He would make a good single wing tailback

I played in the single wing offense.......Dobbs would have been perfect for it.

We have one of the worse passing games since the forward pass was invented. I've watched football since 11am and I'm still watching it......We aren't even close to 98%of the teams I've watched.

JMO...but I don't see it getting any better or much with Dobbs.
5930  Sports / VTTW Message Board / Re: Apparently we are not the only defense that can't get Mayfield on the ground on: November 15, 2015, 05:39:21 EST
And a lineman downfield that would have been called on us.

Grounds crew should be fired....but I'm sure in good UT fashion they will get a raise and extension.

Thanks to all that are serving or have served.

Proudly served in the US Navy for 8 years.

The Mizzou President has resigned......the starving dude can go eat a cheeseburger now

LMAO
5935  Sports / VTTW Message Board / Re: overall that was a shizzlety effort on: November 09, 2015, 05:14:29 EST
maybe an overreaction to the fumble?   

That's exactly what I said after he disappeared.
5936  Sports / VTTW Message Board / Re: overall that was a shizzlety effort on: November 08, 2015, 06:35:01 EST
I don't remember seeing Kamara even touching the ball after he fumbled. No runs or passes to him that I can remember and the running game went south after that. Hurd is the work horse but Kamara gives their offense a spark on the edge.I wish they would give him the ball more. Swing passes,screens,anything thing to take advantage of his speed


^This.....We use Kamara a few plays and get good positive yards and all of a sudden no more Kamara. In the first quarter we had him and Hurd back there together.....got up 14 and poof...gone.
5937  Sports / VTTW Message Board / Re: Anyone watch/hear the press conference? on: November 08, 2015, 04:33:23 EST
Didn't we have only something like 20 yards rushing the 2nd half?
5938  Sports / VTTW Message Board / Re: Did anyone know that the BasketVols won a game last night?........ on: November 08, 2015, 04:30:25 EST
Run and fire up 3's......Guard heavy team. Will be fun to watch and will be lucky to make the NIT I'm afraid.
5939  Sports / VTTW Message Board / Re: Memphis lost to Navy. 45-20*** on: November 08, 2015, 04:29:04 EST
As a US Navy vet.......GO NAVY!!!!
5940  Sports / VTTW Message Board / Re: overall that was a shizzlety effort on: November 08, 2015, 02:23:52 EST
What bothers me and it's a pattern with us. When teams adjust to what we are doing we have no answer for it. We held on and it should have never come down to that.
5941  Sports / VTTW Message Board / Re: There went the shut out on: November 07, 2015, 11:50:59 EST
Since our first 2 scores our offense looked like crap.
5942  Sports / VTTW Message Board / Re: Well hot damn... on: November 07, 2015, 07:50:39 EST
It's called the Vandy effect.....You can tell your team all you want to that Vandy will play you hard and your team will never believe it. I remember those teams with Peyton Manning and we had 4 times the talent Vandy did but those games ended 14-10, etc..
5943  Sports / VTTW Message Board / Re: Where are the tailgates for the Game Chickens on: November 06, 2015, 10:29:29 EST
Well unfortunately, I have a stress fracture in my foot and won't be there Saturday.  In fact, I'm going to miss the rest of the season (possibly excepting the bowl game).   

Hope to see you next year.

Been there...done that. I feel your pain and it hurts!!!

I was on the 3rd hole on the golf course yesterday and felt a pain in my foot and was afraid I did it again. It was like of was walking on hot glass. Some better today.

Good luck and hope you get better soon.
5944  Sports / VTTW Message Board / Re: Am I the only one kinda nervous about tomorrow's game? on: November 06, 2015, 10:26:35 EST
When UT is playing I'm NEVER NOT worried.....It has something to do with being a UT fan for almost 61 years.
5945  Sports / VTTW Message Board / Re: So, the rat bastard tiglets are #1 in the first playoff poll? on: November 04, 2015, 04:43:00 EST
Before too long there will be a 8 team playoff.
5946  Sports / VTTW Message Board / Re: What do you think of Titans firing Whisenhunt? Too bad an owner won't fire on: November 04, 2015, 02:21:00 EST
I wish he'd had more time with MM...meaning more than 4 damn games. Since Whisenhunt has been there he had to work with at QB ......Locker Whitehurst Mettenburger NFL is a QB league and a QB league that has to play at a high level....Just look at Luck at the Colts, he's having a bad year and the Colts are paying for it.

Hate to see him fired after a year and a half....not much time IMO. But the 3 and 20 record is really bad and the past 3 games the Titans didn't even resemble a football team.
5947  Sports / VTTW Message Board / Re: I'm with BDV, I get the real-time flag but how does the replay official screw it on: November 02, 2015, 06:38:26 EST
I thought that the rule changed after year one of the targeting rule.  In year 1, the penalty stood.  I thought that was changed after the first year to allow replay to void both the ejection and the penalty yardage.

I could be wrong about this, though.

Correct!.....At first on review if it was determined there was no targeting the player was allowed to continue to play but the 15 yards still stood.....Which was STUPID!! If it was determined there was NO TARGETING then how could there be a penalty!!! That was one of the dumbest things I'd ever seen.

They wised up and now if it's not targeting then it's no 15 yards marked off.
5948  Sports / VTTW Message Board / Re: Texas loses to Iowa State 24-0............ on: November 01, 2015, 06:58:38 EST
I said the same thing......I guess Louisville loaned OU their hookers and the team was wore out.
5949  Sports / VTTW Message Board / Re: Coach Cut and Blue Devils got screwed by replay imo. on: November 01, 2015, 06:53:15 EST
The way I understand it is the block in the back was not reviewed...it was over-ruled by another ref telling the one that threw the flag that it was a legal hit...Much like what happened to us in the Ark game on the punt return for 6.

The review tonight was for the knee was or wasn't down on the final play.
5950  Sports / VTTW Message Board / Re: If the SEC brass has any cajones, Moseley's suspension will be overturned on: November 01, 2015, 06:49:54 EST
I firmly believe they do all they can in replay to not show up the refs...I believe that.
