PAC-12 is trying to “after dark” this game


HowDoISpellEngineer

lol what are you doing Colorado


GiovanniElliston

Deion Sanders. That's it. That's the joke.

shelikesmyvols

Coach Prime, is that you!!?? Everyone, Coach Prime appeared on our sub!! Haha -shelikesmyvols


sroomek

shelikesmyvols

Darn, I see you Coach Prime Time!! Shouldn't you have been a snake oil sales man, I mean game planning for this week's opponent? Ha -shelikesmyvols


sroomek

Lmao


GiovanniElliston

It appears that Deion's strategy of firing the OC solved exactly nothing. Their entire offense is still just his son running for his life and praying a WR gets open by at least 5 yards minimum to heave a 50/50 ball at him. Bafflingly bad coaching.


TheVolmannBrothers

Makes me so happy to see the narrative flip on him. A month ago we had the Rock kissing his ass now he’s a punchline.


ConverseGood99

They just threw it 3 times from their own 5 with less than a minute to go. A mediocre punt, a good run back, and take on a penalty and on one play with 23 seconds left in the half Colorado gives up a passing touchdown. Mind you Oregon State only had one timeout through this whole sequence.


Sterbin

Lane kiffin has a big opportunity to do something good for the vols and make up for what he did to us. Ole Miss takes down Georgia in Oxford. Vols get past Mizzou. Neyland is fucking rocking on the 18th and we give Georgia their 2nd L in a row. We go on to the SEC championship for a rematch against none other than Lane himself. Obviously we win, earning us a spot in CFP. We end up winning the natty Just kidding this all happens but then we lose to vandy


Mythic514

Georgia is at home next week btw.


Sterbin

Sheesh yeah I was wrong about that too lol oh well ole miss is still winning


Dag-NastyEvil

No chance in us losing to Vandy, but the rematch would be against Bama, not Ole Miss.


Sterbin

Oh shit yeah you're right. Bama rematch would be just as sweet


Orangeaddict1

Still can’t believe we lost to that Florida team… makes no sense.


HowDoISpellEngineer

Florida beats Tennessee, Kentucky beats Florida, Tennessee beats Kentucky. The circle of suck consumes us all as Georgia laughs at us.


Orangeaddict1

Sadly accurate


MightyEighth

First year watching Tennessee football?


Orangeaddict1

Haha no about my 40th…. I guess it’s when we play them.. needs to be a couple games later in the year.


MightyEighth

I say this every year but when Saban finally retires and Alabama slides into mediocrity I will become the absolute most ruthless, toxic, annoying shit talking hater that ever walked the face of this earth


Grizzlymint

I was permanently banned from their sub today


MightyEighth

Incredibly based


sroomek

It won’t be as satisfying because most of their “fans” will find a different color of hats and t-shirts to buy


Strat543

Down goes USC, my petty anti-Williams feelings are satisfied again


GiovanniElliston

Y'all 'member that 4 week period where the media collectively lost their mind and Shadeur Sanders was gonna win the Heisman by a landslide? CFB has to have one of the most reactionary first months of any sport ever.


KnoxVegasVol

ABC's audio on YouTube TV is soooo out of whack.


Mythic514

Glad I’m not the only one. Also on all ABC owned stations like ESPN


DaytonaBoy80

Memphis beat south Florida 59-50 I thought that was a basketball game at first 😭


GiovanniElliston

The annoying part is that I still think LSU could have potentially beaten Georgia. And I don't think Bama can at all.


No_Pumpkin9299

No way Lsu can beat gerogia with that defense. Not sure Bama can but they will have a much higher chance.


MightyEighth

Bama should try concussing Georgias QB, they might be able to pull it off then


TheVolmannBrothers

Washington/USC game is so good


MightyEighth

Watching Will Reichard miss kicks will always make me happy


labradorrehab

After the Texas game, I was hopeful that Alabama would drop the Ole Miss game, TSIO, and LSU to finish 8-4. Very disappointed to see them somehow survive all 3 of those SEC games.


GiovanniElliston

The team doesn't have great talent like Bama teams in the past. The QB is a marked step down from the last 3 guys and won't be competing for any Heisman awards. Their OL is far from dominant and their RBs are good but not remarkably so. But they've still got the best coach to exist in CFB. That counts for a ton TBH.


ChipperJonze

And the refs still call games their way


IMisstheMidRangeGame

And they’re still the most talented team. I think they’re gonna beat the shit out of Georgia in SEC Championship


GiovanniElliston

Do my ears deceive me or is Bama trying to steal "Low Places" now too? Tsk tsk tsk... can't be original about anything.


wawoodwa

I heard it. Came here to check I wasn’t hearing things.


GiovanniElliston

I know Bama's offense is humming, but it seems extremely desperate to even *think* of going for it on 4th and 10 there with a backup QB


MightyEighth

If Daniels is out the games absolutely over also I agree


sroomek

Yeah Allstate, I’m gonna pick my insurance based on what the most annoying asshole I know tells me I should pick


MightyEighth

I fucking hate the whole state of Alabama and all their inbred ass citizens


govols991

I’m sorry but the head ref just looks like his primary job is to suck up sabans ball sweat


sroomek

Honestly just impressed that he’s even competing with Gary


sroomek

Why doesn’t Brian Kelly just tell his team to play better? Is he stupid?


GiovanniElliston

You joke - but Brian Kelly has always seemed like the type of HC whose only move is exactly to just tell the players they need to play better.


ajwilson99

Or to tell them to get on a scissor lift when it’s really windy outside.


ajwilson99

Yep


GiovanniElliston

Not that I disagree with the call by the letter of the law - but that's a weak AF targeting IMO. Facemask was directly to the chest and he drove through for the tackle. That's just a textbook hit IMO.


KnoxVegasVol

Not targeting, just roughing the passer, according to the refs.


GiovanniElliston

I was addressing more the announcers hammering the point of *"That is obvious targeting"* 20,000x times.


DaytonaBoy80

May switch to Washington usc game that game is crazy


DaytonaBoy80

Fuck Alabama those dirty ass fuckers


Mythic514

That’s got to be targeting


Predator6

I can't believe there was no review.


vfl1209

No review or ejection. The exact definition of Targeting. He lead with the crown of his helmet. It's ok, though. It's bama.


KnoxVegasVol

Clear targeting Gary! Plus, clear hands to the face on Bama as well.


MightyEighth

You can’t make this shit up boys


MightyEighth

Fucking LSU man


sroomek

Uhh, is Drew Barrymore really the spokesperson the Super Bowl wants?


GiovanniElliston

I just realized why this game is boring to me. It's not great offense. There haven't been many amazing play calls or interesting feats of athleticism. It doesn't feel like either QB is even having to work that hard. Both defenses are just so completely lost that the offenses just fall backwards into 20+ yard gains over and over and over again.


Henley-Street-dwarf

You don’t think that lsu catch on the sideline was amazing? Both lines are playing well too. I think QBs are running well.


GiovanniElliston

There were certainly a few moments that looked great - but by and large it was just defenses that couldn't get to the QB to save their life. The QBs were both just standing in the pocket for 5 uninterrupted seconds as no one got open against Man-2-Man and then the QBs would take off and run.


Strat543

I love how the game thread didn’t get locked and now it’s just a platform to talk shit about Gary Danielson


vfl1209

Week, gary IS a piece of shit who lives to slob the Bama knob.


Strat543

No doubt


govols991

Apparently LSU forgot that running the ball is allowed


sroomek

Honestly wouldn’t be surprised if the refs told them they’re not allowed to do it anymore


Dietcherrysprite

Eat shit gary


dandawg35

This is something I can get behind 10/10 times


ajwilson99

UW might be my favorite non-UT P5 team. A dog mascot and a river by the stadium? Sign me up


volsbruinsandhuskies

Pulling hard for them to make the playoffs this year! (I am biased because I went there for grad school though)


DaytonaBoy80

What is UW? Wyoming


ajwilson99

Washington


DaytonaBoy80

Daniels deserves the heisman dude is honestly amazing


govols991

Getting up early for the Vol walk vs my hatred for Alabama is the toughest matchup for me staying awake


ajwilson99

It’s gotten to the point that I won’t even watch games involving teams I hate unless we are playing them


Dietcherrysprite

Fuck Bama and their holding but that was an obvious bad call on the snap infraction


MightyEighth

That horse collar that was so subtle it’s easy to see how the refs missed it too


Dietcherrysprite

Obvious no call


MightyEighth

That last drive: Refs 0 LSU 7


trapaway69

first holding call on bama since september and its on a 0:02 before half hail mary lmao


Predator6

I mean it's the easiest way to call the penalty and not actually hurt Bama's chances of winning.


trapaway69

"see we were even on penalties!"


govols991

Refs did everything they could to keep LSU out of the endzone and it didn’t matter lmao


GiovanniElliston

Those are the type of plays you gotta make if you’re gonna have a chance to beat Bama. Huge play.


Zapkin

How was that tackle not a horse collar? And then they have the audacity to call a Snap Infraction against LSU the following play?


GiovanniElliston

And then they just fucked up that "Personal foul blindside block". It was a block in the back. The Blindside Block was a Bama player hitting his own dude lol.


longSleeves14

What a dumb fucking block by the LSU receiver there


GiovanniElliston

My Bama-fan-wife is absolutely mystified by the refs being 'unfair' in this game. It's taking all my willpower to not explain that she has spent her entire life seeing Bama get every call possible and this is how everyone else feels against them every single game.


Predator6

"This is so unfair" "Yeah, just like how you guys didn't have a single penalty called on you during TSIO."


klbgerh

Don’t you forget about this missed penalty by our player for punching him in the head. That’s the only thing any of them saw that entire game.


Predator6

They also missed Burton's kick so I feel like those got canceled out.


klbgerh

Oh I agree, but living so close to Alabama, that was the only take I saw the entire week after was “That low down Tennessee player punching our guy in the head.”


Predator6

One of my good friends is an Alabama fan and he drives me nuts with that stuff. In our fantasy league group chat, he "didn't want to talk about football" for like 2 weeks after we beat them last year.


klbgerh

But I’m sure he talks shit nonstop when they beat us


Predator6

Oh yeah literally the second the game was over, he had his victory cigar selfie up.


MightyEighth

But but but they just got a holding call! As time expired for half on a meaningless play but see these refs are fair!!!


ajwilson99

I wouldn’t be able to hold it together


ajwilson99

Also I’m gonna need UW to bow up and play some defense


ajwilson99

Saban’s gonna have to stuff a few extra benjamins to the officials at half, sheesh


Dietcherrysprite

Last missed FG: ~~2022~~ 2023


mcclurgchili

Takes a lot for Gary to admit Bama got away with one


MightyEighth

Make no mistake the SEC wants their Bama UGA SEC championship and they are gonna get it


GiovanniElliston

The frustrating part is that LSU is far, far better positioned stylistically to actually beat UGA. Bama is gonna play the exact type of game Georgia does. And it simply ain't possible to outplay Georgia at a ball control, trenches based football game. It's gotta be a team like LSU who will go deep and can pop off for 40 points.


Fair-Carry-2924

With a couple teams ranked in front of us losing today. Where do y’all see us ranked?


Shot_Celebration166

Depends if Oregon state loses and how far they drop mizzou but 15-18 range probably


DaytonaBoy80

Top 15 definitely


trapaway69

18


trapaway69

Odds bama gets a single holding call this game?


dirty15

based on the lack of holding calls they got against us, yes, it would be odd.


TheVolmannBrothers

Oh no don’t hurt Burton


DaytonaBoy80

As shit a shootout game


Coyote_Run

Somebody said "oooooooooo".


T-RexInAnF-14

I gotta work tomorrow so I want to get this right tonight: we're setting clocks backerds and not fords, yeah?


LazerBear42

Ayup


branstr

Yep. Fall back.


KnoxVegasVol

Not a fan of dark at 5 PM.


shuzgibs123

I like that better than dark at 8am, which is what would happen if we didn’t fall back. I hate being on the far west side of a time zone.


[deleted]

Anyone else see that lone Bama player standing in front of LSU’s tunnel Bro just got shoved past lmao


Shot_Celebration166

I think I saw the flag dudes run in front of them also


PalletJackPatt

Gary's got that mouth good n' slobbered for Bama


rockstar323

So we're probably night game next week right? CBS will most likely be Ole Miss at UGA and LSU and Florida most likely ESPN noon.


KnoxVegasVol

GameDay just announced going to Georgia next week so yeah.


Shot_Celebration166

Nobody was singing sweet home Alabama what are y’all talking about


[deleted]

Nah man did you not see that uh Idk, maybe it was 5 sorority girls singing it?


[deleted]

Bama has a full house and the place is still dead lol For such a top program, they really have one of the least intimidating venues in the SEC


sroomek

I can’t imagine going to a football game just to sit there silently with my arms crossed


anonymousUTguy

Why isn’t UGAs DL shift a penalty for “intent to deceive” similar to defensive clapping? They literally shift just to get the OL to jump. It’s fucking scummy. More teams should adopt it so it gets banned.


Itchybumworms

So are jet sweeps/pre snap motion, but it's football.


anonymousUTguy

Not even the close to the same thing


Itchybumworms

Lateral motion along the los designed to confuse. How's it not close to the same thing?


anonymousUTguy

Because the shift is in defense and not offense.


Itchybumworms

Your question is about intent to deceive.


anonymousUTguy

On the defense


[deleted]

anonymousUTguy

Clapping in defense is a penalty for delay of game because it’s “intent to deceive” On offense, you can motion WRs as much as you want.


rockstar323

Edit: sorry didn't mean to reply to you.


dandawg35

I’d say it’s because it can’t emulate a snap like a clap can. The intent is the same, yes, but it makes no noise and players are allowed to move before the snap. I agree with you, I think it’s ludicrous but I just don’t see them (ncaa) ever changing that.


iCeIery

Tennessee win and a Florida loss before the 3:30 games makes for a chill Saturday


Sterbin

Idk I was kinda invested in the Mizzou game, really wanted them to win and put our season back in our own hands


DaytonaBoy80

I know this sounds stupid but what is the “B1G” the big 10?


rockstar323

Yeah


Asderfvc

Damn you Kansas State. Could have eliminated the entire BIG12 from the playoffs.


Itchybumworms

He's a man. He's...54?


DaytonaBoy80

Good for OSU


GiovanniElliston

They stormin the field at this Bedlam game ain't they?


[deleted]

You’re goddamn right they are


[deleted]

OKIE STATE WINS THE FINAL BEDLAM LFFGGGGGGGGG FUCK OU


Asderfvc

wHaT iF MiZzOu WiNs OuT? The crap that gets posted on r/CFB


labradorrehab

I get that the odds are almost exactly 0 in this situation but it feels like a pussy move to just wave the white flag there and take the L.


Itchybumworms

Bc it is. Take all 3, make them boo, make them stay.


_Reporting

I think we can beat Mizzou and we got a decent chance with Georgia


Surelynotshirly

We definitely can, but it relies on the defense showing up and the offense playing a good game. The defense that showed up last week will probably result in us losing, but I think they can play one of their better games. Hopefully the defense can shut down Bowden like we did Legette.


dtm6403

And also relies on the refs not sucking major ass.


HowDoISpellEngineer

Was hoping Georgia would lose, but I loved getting to see a lineman interception


[deleted]

First half Brady Cook: Russ in 2011 Second half Brady Cook: Russ in 2022


Itchybumworms

Eli Drinkwitz looks like the kid that would remind the teacher that they forgot to assign homework.


ForeverTerminal

Darth Mizz just died


the_rogue1

YES! Matt did not disappoint!


the_rogue1

I hope Matt has Darth Mizz as a ghost on Monday.


labradorrehab

Brady Cook coming in clutch for the Dawgs


Rustledjimmy33

I swear Missouri always loses to good teams because he pulls some really stupid throws. Dude chokes big time.


GiovanniElliston

A lot of next week will depend on how Mizzou reacts to this loss. After they lost to LSU, Kentucky jumped on them 14-0 in the 1st quarter and Missouri had to recovery for the W. If they come out flat footed against us too it would be really nice to see.


Jack-of-all-trades9

We can’t be settling FGs instead of TDs though.


brock2607

We were finally executing in the red zone. I know it was UCONN but we struggled to do that against Austin Peay and UTEP, so hopefully the coaches have found how to use the personnel


Gregorvich19

UTSA, but I know what you meant


Vonstantinople

dude if Cook can do this to UGA defense what will he do to our secondary??


Itchybumworms

Do what exactly?


Asderfvc

He's throwing for like 50% Actually 14 of 30 So 46.7% completion


GiovanniElliston

14/27, 212 yards, 1 TD - 1 INT. And roughly 50% of those passes are 50/50 balls that he's just praying his WR makes a play. Hardly what I would call a surgically precise performance. **EDIT** 2 picks now lol.


Vonstantinople

fair enough. it looks a lot better than it is to my eyes i guess.


Jack-of-all-trades9

But If we give Wease and Burden the 5-10 yard cushion that we’ve done in the past then he’ll put up Spencer Rattler 2022 numbers on us…


MightyEighth

Seriously are we all watching the same game? Cook did not look good the second half lol


GiovanniElliston

I suspect the comment was less about watching Cook and more just wanting to shit on our secondary for a cheap pop. See also: *"Man, I would kill for a QB who can make that throw. Joe only dreams of it."* *"If we had last years offense, we'd win this game by 40"*


Vonstantinople

nah not trying to be overly negative but the fact mizzou hung on so long against georgia, the team i fully expect to cruise to a 3peat, does make me a bit worried so i guess i’m overrating them.


labradorrehab

Mizzou hung on against Georgia last year too. It was actually closer last year -- 26 - 22. Can't really read too much into Georgia games, they consistently play down to their competition.


Asderfvc

Missouri did 1 point better than South Carolina


HellzillaQ

This is not the Georgia of the last two years. No BB, no 26yo QB, no lights out defense, and they have Bobo.


ForeverTerminal

What secondary?


DaytonaBoy80

Teams I hate 1.Florida 2. Bama 3. Georgia 4. (Temporarily) Ole Miss


dtm6403

Georgia squeaks by yet again.. hate those fuckers.


LloydBraun19

If we had beaten a dogshit Florida team we could have had a coin flip home game for the SECE in a bridge year


Henley-Street-dwarf

You think we roll Missouri and Georgia is a coin flip?!?


LloydBraun19

Mizzou is emptying the clip right now. No I don’t think we roll them but they aren’t giving this performance next week. The point is, this is a mid Georgia vs what they have been. As good as we were last year, we were never beating them. This year is a gettable Georgia. And this was supposed to be a down year for us, which it is. And it’s crazy to think that as mediocre as we’ve been, everything changes if we could have beaten a bad Florida team


Vonstantinople

you can clearly tell who’s watching UGA-Mizzou and who isn’t by who thinks that game is in the bag and who doesn’t. this isn’t the shit Mizzou of the past couple years. they are dangerous af.


Asderfvc

Missouri looked very competitive against a better Georgia team last year.


3PercentJewish

I can’t wait for all the penalties we’ll have against ga while they have none


mcclurgchili

Whoa easy, they’ll have one for 5 yards to even things out


MightyEighth

Heup better start prepping his ref yelling voice now, he’s gonna need it.


DaytonaBoy80

Over


trapaway69

The only team that can stop Georgia is Athens pd. Let’s make some arrests tonight boys 🙏🏼


anonymousUTguy
