Go Orange team go!

While the high snap was concerning (and I thought Manning waa dead to rights), it was funny to watch

"Simulating using a restroom" penalty... facepalm

[–] Sharkticon@lemmy.zip 4 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

Yeah it's a lot harder to keep a running quarterback in the pocket when the offensive line is allowed to hold.

[–] wjrii@lemmy.world 3 points 1 week ago (1 children)

This final sequence… SNIP SNAP! SNIP SNAP!

[–] g0d0fm15ch13f@lemmy.world 4 points 1 week ago

You have no idea the physical toll 5 final minute penalties has on a person

[–] g0d0fm15ch13f@lemmy.world 3 points 1 week ago

secondary is looking a lot like they don't "know the system" but also more worrying things like "how to tackle"

Holly getting her Sark interview in ahead of time it seems

[–] g0d0fm15ch13f@lemmy.world 3 points 1 week ago (1 children)

UT's Manning really keeping UT in this game, huh?

He's playing much better than last week, that's for sure. But it's not resulting in many points. I still think our defense is better than our offense (when they're not pissing away their stops)

[–] ToasterOverlord@fanaticus.social 3 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Oh the irony that the broadcast audio craps out when they're talking about how the comms will be fine

[–] g0d0fm15ch13f@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago

I listen to the volcast anyway...

This has got to be the worst great ending to a game ever

[–] ToasterOverlord@fanaticus.social 2 points 1 week ago (1 children)

GG Vols, wishing y'all good luck down the stretch and that both of us protect our QBs better

[–] g0d0fm15ch13f@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago

GG Longhorns, you win the orange belt. I won't be mad at a Manning win. But do take care of him.

[–] g0d0fm15ch13f@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago

I don't know if we just watched two good teams duke it out or two bad teams drunkenly stumble all over the field, but I know both teams were propped up by their d lines.

[–] g0d0fm15ch13f@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago (1 children)

So normally checker Neyland is Orange with White checkering, this week to honor Texas it's White with Orange checkering.

[–] ToasterOverlord@fanaticus.social 2 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I don't think I ever noticed before that y'all have white goalposts. I wonder if they blend in with the crowd, possibly giving a slight edge against visiting kickers

[–] g0d0fm15ch13f@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago

I bet it does tbh, and I'm surprised we're allowed to. I've always just thought it was to be orange and white everywhere but I bet there is a small but non zero advantage there.

[–] g0d0fm15ch13f@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago

This is what I was worried about with Faizon, people have been saying good on him for not forcing throws and just tucking and running. But I don't know that he looks at 2nd looks or has patience with pressure

[–] g0d0fm15ch13f@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago

Yeah not the way you want to start, we have to keep the crowd in it if we want to have a chance. And we've got to keep the score beatable for Faizon

[–] g0d0fm15ch13f@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago

tinfoil hat

I think that was only reviewed so the SEC could show off their new video review process

[–] g0d0fm15ch13f@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago

talk about a second chance

I find it amusing that the Vols receivers are proving tougher to cover for Mascoe than Jeremiah Smith was

[–] g0d0fm15ch13f@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago

I like the call to go for it though

[–] ToasterOverlord@fanaticus.social 2 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Ehhhh... there needs to be clarification on what constitutes the fair catch signal. I've been saying this since the 2023 Iowa-Minnesota game

[–] g0d0fm15ch13f@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago

Yes, and that's a dubious call that I'll take. It's certainly weird to try and define what constitutes "illegal" deception in a deceptive play

[–] g0d0fm15ch13f@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week ago

How much does Carter owe to charity for the kick recovery?

[–] g0d0fm15ch13f@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week ago

Haslam has been holding the whole 4th quarter shame he finally got caught

[–] g0d0fm15ch13f@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week ago

Fuck me why do we have to have these games get close at the end

[–] g0d0fm15ch13f@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week ago

PRESS THE KICKING GAME, HERE IS WHERE THE BREAKS ARE MADE

[–] g0d0fm15ch13f@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week ago

Yeah that feels like game, unless the offense gets it together 10 points feels insurmountable
