Florida @ ^11^ Tennessee
Tennessee successfully failed to lose. ๐คฃ
It was a back and forth hard fought effort, but ultimately it was the gators who came out on bottom
I hate this game, I do not want this to go to extra time. Please just finish it
I think y'all'll get it. EDIT: or not. This game is so damn stupid.
Also was hopeful about that replay until I saw the puff of sand.
THEY'RE REALLY GONNA MAKE ME WATCH MORE OF THIS BULLSHIT?!?!?
That was an... interesting series for the Tennessee offense.
Yeah normally I like Heup's playcalling. It can be controversial but it's aggressive... that wasn't
AAAHHHHHH IM GONNA THROW UP
Can we please cool it with the damn boobirds when a gator goes down?
The last one looked a bit sus, but as they mentioned you wouldn't want to have a key pass rusher out on a key third-and-long. I would in general be in favor of having to stay out more than one play if you have to come off, though. Realistically, can you even be properly evaluated in the 30-60 seconds that a play could reasonably take in real time?
That kid can freaking get it
And THAT is why it's so frustrating when we stall out. The pieces are obviously still there
"Gutsy throw" = announcer speak for "Stupid freshman throw that somehow worked out".
I don't hate that fourth down decision or the call. Sometimes they don't work out, and Creepy Zombie Science UT clearly has the momentum.
Give me a replay, because Nico made that reach I'm telling you
I thought he stepped out and was still a bit short, but I admit I was pleasantly surprised by that spot.
Crowd noise was a given. Billy might lose close and still get tarmac'd. Such an underwhelming coaching display.
To wit, the play calling FOR LAGWAY was much more aggressive when it was his designated possessions, but now Billy is acting like he's a raw backup with no reps.
Unfortunately I feel OT favors the gators here
I feel exactly the opposite. This Gators team is not built for high pressure situations where mistakes are punished.
Well that was not a good game, but at least you're one step closer to firing Napier!
Y'all are talented but have a few issues to sort out. GG (of a sort, LOL).
Any sort of competence from Billy in the first half, and I don't the second plays out how it did. This one won't get Billy fired tonight, but it won't help much either.
Somehow Florida gets a brilliant improvisational play for a TD, and decides to do some bizarre trick play, but then says nope at the last second. PAT good. This game is very stupid, LOL.
Well fuck me
Just when I was prepared to call our secondary "improved"
Gotta stop grabbing the shoulder-numbers, pumpkins.
BAH, there we go. I knew Lagway wouldn't go under center. He takes spikes and kneeldowns from shotgun.
Being in the gun is a disadvantage. Jet sweep against a fast team is dumb and why Billy is probably still going to get fired this year.
How is that the play that goes our way lol
This game has got to be incredible to watch for anyone who hates the gators and the Vols
So... a certain percentage of Georgia fans, or a certain generation of Alabama fans? ๐คฃ
THAT'S THE HEUP PLAYCALLING I LIKE TO SEE
LOL, yeah, that was bonkers in the fun way.
Fuckers.
Interception! LOL.
Gotta give Heupel credit. After his playing days, he didn't do any Kingsbury/Reilly bullshit. No sir, with athletic fitness no longer a key requirement, the man went full fat-dad. I can appreciate that.
Neither team wants to score any points. Jeezus.
This times a million. Billy seems like a good dude, but he coaches DUMB.
That was an incredibly poor finish to the half, everyone who is tuned in is stupider for watching it
The announcers keep talking about it being "like an NFL game." Well, right now it looks like the fourth quarter of the Hall of Fame preseason opener.
It's been a while since I watched a full pro game outside of the sb. If this is what it's like how has this sport not been outlawed yet
Picking up right where we left off
FUCK. Decent call. Goddammit.
Montrell Johnson twisted all funky on that tackle (it was clean, best I can tell, though sort of an unintentional hip-drop). Not optimistic he'll be back tonight.
Yeah that last gator drive was attritional to say the least
That is exactly what the doctor ordered!
Worst part is, I can't even blame that on Billy. Lagway just forgot defenders are allowed to jump.
Punting is smart for Tennessee. The more plays Florida has to run, the greater the chance Billy Napier does something stupid. Big Brain Heupel.
Florida scores a TD.
Mertz has non-contact injury. Johnson still out.
I have this game on in the background while I do chores and I swear every time I check back in I see an injured Gator. I'm new to the SEC -- is this field really cursed as was purported in The Blind Side?
Maybe? I know some dogs that call it Kneeland stadium. And there is of course the body farm under it...
Apparently they also sacrificed the entire defense. Nice drive, undersaturated orange team.
Points is points.
