Yep, I was thinking as soon as we crossed the 50 that that drive needed to be four-down territory, because I wanted no part of Kentucky needing a touchdown and having four downs to work with all the way down the field. Ended up taking two sacks and a penalty, and kicking ultimately made sense on 4th and 15, but I wasn’t heartbroken when we missed the kick. Being ahead 6 is probably still better (because if they do score, 16 seconds and a FG is a win), but I think only needing 3 affected the way they called the last drive.
Absolutely. That sequence was terrible time management that is hidden behind still being a play away. Imagine if we would have had to honor the run all the way into fg range. Dummies.
I’ll also add that the Ky band’s pregame show is really really bad. Like something that I would expect to see in the MAC or Sun belt.
Meh...he chose to transfer to Kentucky. He should know he signed up to lose to Tennessee in various gut wrenching ways.
True, but I classify the direction in the same category as CBS making a point to show folks leaving Neyland during the Dooley and Burch years. Show he's upset and move on. A couple of meme formats are all you need, not a dozen. Surely there was another player or perhaps head coach who looked equally out of joint.
