Dang.

I can’t believe that UT isn’t winning by 3 touchdowns after 3 INTs. You’d think Craft would learn not to throw the ball into triple coverage after the 2nd INT, and that Neuheisel wouldn’t ask him to throw the ball at the end of the half instead of just going into halftime with a tie. Awful coaching on those last 30 seconds of the half (by UCLA, of course). And I’m shocked that UCLA can’t sell out a game against a ranked team on Labor Day in one of the largest metropolitan areas in the world. I’m still rooting for you guys!

Go Bears!

Yeah

Our secondary is very, very good, though, so perhaps Craft isn’t as bad as he appears.

I’m shocked that they can’t sell out a game like this, too. That’s just crazy.

Go Vols!

by Joel on Sep 1, 2008 9:59 PM EDT to parent up reply reply actions actions   0 recs

About the sellout-

UCLA is on a quarter system, and they haven’t started classes yet. Maybe the amount of students there is less than normal. And fan expectations are not exactly high for this season in Westwood.

Go Bears!

by RollOnYouBears667 on Sep 2, 2008 12:18 AM EDT to parent up reply reply actions actions   0 recs

Good point.

But I’m curious how ~26,000 seats went empty, even without the students. At UT, the student tickets get sold if the students don’t use them. And of ~100,000 seats, there aren’t 26,000 student seats to begin with.

It’ll go up now, though.

They have 4 turnovers

I think the numbers are reversed.

by wvvol on Sep 1, 2008 9:59 PM EDT reply reply actions actions   0 recs

Yeah

That’s how they were listed on the Gametracker, so I left it. It’s good for us, so I put it in our column. Maybe Craft’s fault, maybe our productivity.

Go Vols!

Even if that is true...

It is somewhat irrelevant since we got remarkably little out of those turnovers

Clawson's famous adjustments.

Well, I think...

The teams will come back out, the refs will wave their arms, blow some whistles, and such, and they will play some more. Of course the rules changes mess with me some.

More substantively, I’m betting we go white bread running and let our defense take us home.
