The CheckerBoard

Unfreakinbelievable... Simply smh.

Man, this has got to be one of the snakebit teams in history since CDD took over. Just unreal at the bad breaks. Go Vols! We are still behind you guys!

Is it possible to file some kind of complaint against SEC referees? Bad calls happen, but when they're systematic for one team, there's many of them, and they make the difference in the game, there ought to be some redress for that.

Dooley's strategy of fabricating "adversity" and "scars" has backfired I think. It's all hindsight bias, but still, there's a dark cloud over him that can't be cured by orange ceramic dogs. Sick of it... this must be what it's like to be a Vandy fan, always getting close but not finishing.

Tough loss... I do not think you can blame any one player OR coach. Still, it is another loss and we still have some tough games ahead...so questions abound. Let's win out, go to a bowl (need those extra practices), and win that too. The chips will fall one way or another regarding our coaches.

I don't see how it could be a horse-collar when Shaw started out in front of Bohannon and as Bohannon was going for the sack Shaw tried to slip the tackle and in doing so created what was called the horse-collar.

The things that drives me crazy is when the DBs launch themselves at a receiver or ball carrier when going for a tackle instead of getting in football position and attacking and wrapping up through the tackle.

Although he has made some serious mistakes, he is tied for 5th in the nation in INT's, so I'm guessing that has something to do with him starting.
