The Vols offense looked terrible and we didn't show up at all for this glorified bye week. We only won because we have more talent. gently caress you Butch for that sorry attempt at coaching and for letting the team play like that this week.

My team is bad and did their usual routine of being a crime against football for three quarters, only to kick it into gear and resemble competency when it was too little too late. This season can't end soon enough.

Someone in the GDT said what it was. Here's the answer spoiled because its kind of obvious to the point where it is a riddle.

"NOT" is the abbreviation for "non-offensive TD." They formatted that graphic horribly.

Northwestern looked liked garbage against a garbage team. Thorson got benched for throwing a terrible pick then the lovely backup came in a threw a dumb pick then Thorson came back and said gently caress it and just did his ungainly giraffe run to ice the game. Anthony Walker is the most underrated player in the Big Ten. We're going to get massacred by Wisconsin and I'm going up there to get massacred by drunk Wisconsinites. Wildcats, bitch they won 8 GODDAMN GAMES and I thought they wouldn't even make a bowl this year sorry about your Body Clocks Stanford give me the Lincoln Hat.

Because the team is a dumpster fire and the collective spirit of the fanbase has been broken? I could tell even on radio/TV that it was pretty dead and I wasn't surprised by it, unfortunately.

Yeah but even in bad years Clemson or Florida is louder. It was a mausoleum in there today until that Qb throwback.

Then it promptly emptied when Kelvin put it away.

Its just disappointing bc your fans are pretty passionate in the fairgrounds, but forget when they come through the gates. Even in good years.

I wish I had one of the Illinois player fielding a punt, letting the ball bass through his hands, and then just standing there looking despondent as three Buckeyes fall on the ball at once.

I swear he gave an 'Oh well' shrug.

Well, yeah, the stadium's gonna empty when the other team scores a dagger TD with two minutes left.

You're the only person I've heard say that Willy-B isn't loud, so I dunno what to tell you. It got really goddamn loud during our good years, and depending on the opponent, plenty loud during the mediocre years as well. This has been a trying and unusual season, particularly with Spurrier leaving in the middle of it. People at the games just seem kind of shellshocked more than anything else.

I find that hard to believe. Ive been to 20ish games at Williams-Brice so im not sure what to say either. The only time ive witnessed it particularly loud is 2010 Bama. For such a passionate fanbase in the parking lot its weird that it doesnt seem to carry over inside.

Good game today though-yall showed some fight late when the game was seemingly put away. Hope you guys get a good coach--id like to see some continued success in Cola.

Was there some big injury or something I'm not seeing in the recap that would give you some cause for pessimism? You went on the road and won by double digits. It was a letdown week after a huge win. LSU didn't wax them either. Not a big deal.

A couple key players got nicked up at the end but should be fine. Just didn't play very well outside Watson being a boss. Mostly came down to 'Cuse running almost only triple option and our team not being ready for it. They ran a much better option attack then GT did vs us.

Texas Tech finally got Bowl Eligible!! Yea!!!! Hugs all around.

Also Texas lost which means I won't have to suffer through ESPN announcers talking about Texas needing NO deserving to get this win so they can go to a bowl "Them kids earned it with Blah blah blah" while I scream obscenities at the screen regardless of whats happening on the field. It was my greatest fear.

Also lol and :rolleyes: at UT fans wanting to fire Strong and pining about Mack Brown.

Ha, I appreciate you saying so, but I didn't think this was a good game. The fourth quarter salvaged it some, but prior to that, it was the worst SC performance I've ever seen. (Full disclosure: Was not watching/was not a fan during '99-'00.) The good news, if there is any, is that this game surely erased any desire to retain our current staff. Granted, I don't think Tanner was seriously looking at retaining Elliott or the assistants, but there's always that worry. I can rest a little easier about that now, I think.

The sad/frustrating thing is that there's clearly still a decent amount of talent on this team, even if it's not currently enough. It's just been so poorly coached and mismanaged. As a UF fan, I'm sure you can relate.

Where is this happening so I can see it, but I don't doubt there are a lot of them. Most people I know are just apathetic and frustrated the team is so bad, and not particularly angry with Strong or under the delusion that Mack Brown would have done anything to stop this.

ACC is weirdly tough this year. Not that my team is particularly great, but a lot of teams are finding their identities and a lot of their players are buying in. NC State has some very good games. Pitt and Syracuse do too. UNC finally put it all together. Duke can't rely on their execution to overcome teams with more talent anymore because those teams are playing with just as much execution. gently caress Georgia Tech. Thank god VT, UVA, and BC all suck at the same time.

Really like Scott Schaefer at Syracuse, and even though he lost a bunch, I'd love to have him on FSU's staff should things go south
