Hard to be negative continuously, but some some people accomplish it.

Sucks. Why do a big story on him if you are going to cut him. Another reason to hate the NFL.

Re: Non-conference schedule released

We have a lot of new pieces to get acclimated to Stac's system. It is nice to see a schedule that will allow the team to gel.

A&M question

They have a QB named Cory Chavis. Anyone know if he is the son or any relation to the former all SEC db from Vandy, Cory Chavis?

Re: Ten observations on Vandy’s 35-28 WIN over Hawaii

I found this from an ask about college football site: Question: In college football if a defensive player goes out of bounds can he come back onto the field of play and make a tackle ? Answer: Yes. NCAA: The only 2 restrictions about players going out of bounds and returning are: 1) A kicking team p...

Re: Ten observations on Vandy’s 35-28 WIN over Hawaii

Go back and look at the onsides kick. The Hawaii player STEPPED OUT OF BOUMDS before falling on the ball. That alone should have made him ineligible to recover the fumble. The ref never said it was his elbow, only the announcer (who also never looked at the foot). I was wondering about that. Isn't ...

Re: Ten observations on Vandy’s 35-28 WIN over Hawaii

1. The season started with a bit of Déjà VU… (sigh) a lightning delay. Star Walk got canceled. Fans, who had already arrived early due to all the construction chaos, were forced to take refuge before the game and huddle together, before being allowed to find their seats, in the rain. (Sigh) Let’s f...

question about the on-sides kickoff

Isn't there a rule that if a player goes out of bounds on his own accord he is then out of the play? The announcers and the Tennessean said the recovery was overturned because the player's elbow was out of bounds. However, if you watch the play, he clearly stepped out of bounds before coming back in...

Re: waking up 1-0

The roughing the QB by Hawaii on what would have been 4th down helped tremendously as well.

Good guys hold Hawaii to three and out, get a shank punt, then score with a short field.
But why the hell did we go for two?

has anyone heard the answer to this question. going for two so early in the game was mystifying.
It wasn't mentioned in the post game.

Re: I wish I could be as optimistic as the fans predicting 9 or 10 Ws this season

I really do. It’s just when you’ve followed this team for 40-50 years, it’s just not possible. My prediction was 5-7, which is looking optimistic at the moment. I objectively thought 3-9. The UK and UF games last year were reason for celebration for all the broken negative streaks. But SC & UT ...

Another thing we did badly

On to occasions our punter put the ball on the two yard line. Both times the first guy touched the ball and batted it back so it wouldn't go into the endzone. Both time some ***** flew in and slid into the endzone with the ball, causing a touchback. Do we not practice this? Do the coaches not tell t...

But there was no description in the game thread about the second call. 2. The reason I have to ask...

Re: Video: Clark Lea, players postgame press conference, coverage from various outlets

Our defensive line looked good in practice in the pass rush because they were going against our offensive line. Our offensive line in the running game looked good because they were going against our defensive line. Bottom line, they both stink. Need some upgrades FAST.
