Hard to determine who is the worse in game coach Tom or Archie.First the timeout at the end of the half, then the onside kick, then iced his own kicker. Literally never seen anything like it.
You're not. Even going to a bowl game I wasn't sold on him. They didn't beat a single bowl team this year.I think I'm the only one that was disappointed when he got an extension. TA will be here a long time and fukn up regularly as he stomps and claps.
At the end of games, it’s on the secondary to finish the game. Our secondary got lit up all year. Tonight was no different.
Who didn't know Tenn. was going to onside kick? TheFirst the timeout at the end of the half, then the onside kick, then iced his own kicker. Literally never seen anything like it.
Why was Tom soaking wet at the end of the game when he went to shake Pruitts hand? Please tell me our guys didn’t give him an early Gatorade shower?
I come in peace. I watched the game and rooted for you guys. Sorry, but your coach was head shakingly !$$#@! First of all you're up 22-9. Tennessee scores a TD with 4:30 minutes left in the game. Everyone watching except your HC Allen seemed to not anticipate that Tennessee would do an onside kick there. You had 2 men up at the line and the kicker kicks it where no one is and what do you know, Tennessee easily recovers the ball and then goes down for the winning TD.First the timeout at the end of the half, then the onside kick, then iced his own kicker.

OMG, if he got a gatorade bath, then this team is dumber than I thought. Let's recruit some intelligent players, that can play, too.Had to be the case. I doubt he fell into a Gatorade cooler.

With 6 or 7 min left? Would be bizarre. They certainly wouldn’t have done that in the final 3 min when Tennessee ledWhy was Tom soaking wet at the end of the game when he went to shake Pruitts hand? Please tell me our guys didn’t give him an early Gatorade shower?

He diverted to a 3 man rush, got no pressure on a QB who had done poorly when getting pressure. You don't want your secondary to get "lit up" keep the pressure on them.At the end of games, it’s on the secondary to finish the game. Our secondary got lit up all year. Tonight was no different.
How many times have we wilted when we needed a first down? All we needed was one first down after Tennessee's first TD in the fourth quarter. This is a sickening loss. While I'm at it, I would have tried a 62-yard field goal at the end. Weather was good. The Vols did everything they could to give us this game. It turned out wasting timeouts wasn't a factor, but I really wish we would save them for late in games. And let's face it, we really didn't have an answer for the Vols' pass rush. Peyton, both Peytons actually, were the only ones who kept us in the game with gutsy plays.

That’s not how the game is played. You give them plays in the middle of the field and keep everything in front of the secondary. The problem was that we did not execute in this type of defense all year. We shouldn’t be giving up twenty yard check downs in the middle of the field and run plays should be quickly converged on for less than ten yards. That forces the other team to run as many plays possible to score taking a lot of time off the clock.He diverted to a 3 man rush, got no pressure on a QB who had done poorly when getting pressure.

The lack of being prepared for that on side kick was unforgivable.
Yikesupdate: after scrolling through Twitter, it sounds like Allen got hit with the Gatorade shower that was intended for Pruitt as the two were headed to midfield for handshakes.
Allen is supposed to be a special teams guy. That was quite the brain fart. How are you not be prepared for an onside kick?Yeah.....Allen does some things so well, and some things so poorly. I was screaming at the TV at the end of the first half. I can't fathom how a college coach can be that bad on those decisions. Not even something you have to think about.
Bottom line is, we are an average team. We did not beat a team all year with a winning record. This was our last chance. We looked horrible at times (offense in the first half) but really good at times (3rd qtr overall). But wow, what a meltdown. Tenn was 0-10 when losing after 3.....I knew they were due, and we helped them out totally.
Tennessee had all 3 TOs left, the percentage play was to kick deep and hold to 3 and out - Pruitt crossed him upNot to mention not having his own side kick team on with 4 minutes left. No idea what he was thinking. Only Indiana football could lose a game like that.
there's gotta be a metaphor in there somewhere....mystery solved. Tennessee players missed and hit Allen and a trooper with the Gatorade near the handshake scrum.
Those weren't checkdowns. If you note, JGwas throwing it quick to Gray, who just floated out to the open area in the underneath zone.That’s not how the game is played.

Ok, then it is essentially an inside run and it should be converged on since we are playing nine in space. It was a good play design, but we have struggled in this type of defense all year.Those weren't checkdowns.

You played the same coverage in the previous series, Chaney noted it and took advantage of it.
Plus your D was defending the down field throw. Pull a man into the underneath zone stops one of your bracket coverages deep. Pick your poison.
So what are you saying? Boot Allen?
