Official Deacs Vs. Vandy Game Thread v2.0

Ok I'm out. Let me know if Grobe opens his mouth before the end of the game.

See you all in Shreveport for Christmas!
 
Tanner has had a terrible day........12 - 28 for 113 yds

Does the coaching staff not have any responsibility to get our people to be able to focus and execute during crunch time?

It's perfect that BB&T is the Wrigley field of college football....wait til next year!

At least Wrigley has Epstein coming in next year.
 
Must be nice to have an O-line that can actually get a push in the running game.

Yep. If the players knew there were ramifications for not caring, they'd show some freaking effort.

Now they're just going to sleepwalk through the next month and sleepwalk into the bowl game and lose to Wyoming.

BabyDeac, it's tough to tell. This team lost a lot of winnable games and barely showed up in the 2nd half of games and the 2nd half of the season. A lot of people feel good about the future, but there are some serious holes in this team. We're losing an experienced mediocre line and replacing them with young guys who have barely seen the field. I don't have much confidence in Harris and Orville in the running game. We don't know if Givens will be back. Otherwise, I think the passing game should be fine. The DL isn't much to write home about, the LBs have some potential, the secondary should be OK if Okoro moves to safety or off the field completely.

Are we talking graduating early and going to another school or entering the draft?
 
As I watch the other games on tv today, I really wish our coaches would show some emotion........both positive and negative. I see other coaches jumping up and down, giving high fives, or really chewing guys out when they deserve it.
What ever happened to playing with your hair on fire????

Points well taken. What can I say, I have no hope for basketball so any that remains is boldly taken up with Wake's football team
 
Draft. Check the ROW thread from earlier this week. Some people close to the program seem to think he's gone.
 
Are you shitting me? We had 4 defenders that could have kept the RB out of the endzone and they get bowled right over. What a bunch of pussies.

But we also could've had the ball bounce differently and lose to Duke, State, BC, even FSU or Maryland. We've come out on the winning end more often than not in close games this year. I can stomach losing to Cuse and ND. What kills me is games like this and the UNC game where we absolutley get outplayed and outcoached by mediocre teams. We don't have many games where we come back. It's like either we get up early and blow a lead or get up early, blow a lead, then hang on just enough to win.

I see what you're saying, but I only agree with your point on Duke and FSU. We dominated BC, Maryland and State at the time

Hard to blame him if that's the case. Unlikely his stock will get any higher, and I see little reason to believe we'll be any better next season. It's like it takes our O line 3 years to get decent then they graduate and we start all over from scratch.
 
Well Vandy will lose its coach soon to another team. I guess I can take bitter solace in that.

We will still have Grobe and Lobo.
 
It's 40-7, 9 mins. to go, why even bother reviewing it? It was clearly a TD at regular speed, why waste the time?

Yeah, not a lot of snot bubbles, hair on fire, blah blah blah blah. I have a feeling we are going to start getting our asses handed to us by Vandy on the recruiting trail as well. Instead of beating them for recruits, our coaches will just hope that Franklin gets a better job and moves on; kind of like they dealt with Harbaugh.
