Negative point for me indeed for completely forgetting to post this week's Hail Mary Haiku. Boo for me.

Joel forgot his post,
but we can still write bad poems,
even without it.

I shall root for Michigan. Nice INT. I think I could have made that one.

An int returned to the 13
The offense goes backward and misses a field goal.

I bet these are the people who bought tickets back in August and told their kids they were going to the game no matter what.

who haven’t made it to a game this year and felt obligated because the Vols were playing so close to home.

Quick Comment Poll:
Independent of what you think will happen in the OSU-Michgain game, would you rather:
A) Michigan win, kicking OSU to the minor-league curb in bowl games.
B) OSU win, making it much easier for Tennessee to not match their record on the season.
by Hooper on Nov 22, 2008 12:51 PM EST reply actions 0 recs
A, I suppose.
Why not give Tennessee a lofty goal on the season? ;-)

So the sequence is:
Coleman handoff
Berry slant run
Berry sweep
Coleman pressured
illegal formation
timeout.

But it's the best thing ever to happen to Berry.
NFL teams are too smart to let the offense’s disappointment count against the defense on draft day. That basically assures us that Berry won’t get taken by Detroit or Oakland once he’s eligible.

Are you assuming at that our offense will be teh suck again next year?

I’m assuming that Detroit and Oakland don’t scout beyond ESPN’s SportCenter. UT won’t be on their map for a while next season.

So, getting ahead of myself here…
Let’s assume that we win, and win big, with like 10,000 rushing yards.
Who here is going to be annoyed that we haven’t a single-wing all year? Two of our three qbs are built more like fullbacks anyway.
I mean, this offensive product looks nice.

EB should go Haynesworth on somebody

Their punter is terrible
You would think Vandy would always have great punters.

His left foot pointed to the sideline
while his knee pointed to the sky.

I think our problem is passing
When we just run, we look great. When we start passing, the O-Line looks confused, and then continue to look confused for a while.
Run! Run! Run!

Weird flag
Was it the O-lineman pushing our guy down sideways?

It looked like the D-lineman was the one holding, until he pushed him down

45 more yards for Berry.
How many more does he need?

That's fine with me.

Double Good
6 points.
Plus, Berry says he “hates” pick sixes, because he has to go back out on the field.
So now he’s angry!!!!

I think we were the beneficiaries of a bad holding call, but I'll take it.

The replay angle was bad
From the side, live, it was obvious holding
by Vol Navy on Nov 22, 2008 1:42 PM EST up reply actions 0 recs
We haven't completed a pass
And we’re up 17-0.
by Will on Nov 22, 2008 1:42 PM EST reply actions 0 recs
Ok, UT. Do NOT pass the ball for the rest of the game.
That way Berry is guaranteed to leave with the lead in INTs.

BJ Coleman
did the run the option in high school

I don't think I care at this point.
Let Creer and Hardesty run the option. We don’t need passes.

Works for me

Huh. Pretty fast and limber for a bell cow.

I think our gameplan for the season should have been...
Put Crompton in for a few minutes and let him suck it up, then bring in the new guy to fire up the team!
Ah, I’m kidding. I don’t mean to pile on the guy.
by rblakeh on Nov 22, 2008 1:43 PM EST reply actions 0 recs
Methinks we'll actually need a second half game thread.
It helps when the team isn’t stinking.

If you get bored, here's an inane trick for you.
If a lot of the comments are still in the new-comment orange, make sure the cursor isn’t active in a comment window and hold down the “c” key.

Sigh
Seriously. Is it me, or does it just seem like every time we have some success, we revert to old stuff thinking that maybe, just maybe it will work this time.

He kicked a 50-yarder right before hafltime of the O/W game last year.

That's in the past.
He’s been dry ever since the last infraction.

Are you his sponsor or something?
Maybe he just has a DD now.
by wvvol on Nov 22, 2008 1:55 PM EST up reply actions 0 recs
No.
He’s had multiple press conferences over the last year where he’s stated as such.
by Hooper on Nov 22, 2008 1:56 PM EST up reply actions 0 recs
Is he a moron?
Would he really say “Yeah, I’m drunk right now” in a press conference?

I'm with hooper
Why pile on? Why not take him at his word? What’s it to us?

What I love most about our secondary
Any time the ball hits the ground, there is at least one guy mad at himself for not getting the interception, no matter how far away from the ball he is.
