We really do need to start playing the middling P5 teams of the world and not the ones that have more 4 and 5 stars than like twenty P5 teams combined.

How many times is player called for being forced out of bounds on a punt....very few times if any. The score should be 7-0, with the first score really being a bone head move by the safety stepping up to look in the backfield while a receiver running full speed in the seam.

TJ3 gonna TJ3

Get his happy feet out of there

I really hate these games. It's just a waste of a week, instead of getting to watch a good football game.

Why do we always start these games with at least one or two catastrophic errors… We are never ready for these games. We should only play low and P5 teams. Starting to Get tired of being unprepared and getting embarrassed every time

Yes the Vandys of the world not the world beaters.

Vandy isn't middling right now. They're legitimately terrible. I'd be good playing a Missouri or a Kansas State, etc just to see how we match up these days.

Solid teams where the talent level is not so astronomically mismatched.

This game wouldn't even be going that bad without the unforced errors, but oh well.

Good to see Hopkins getting some reps.

Why is our starter out in the first quarter? Is Tyler hurt?

He made a bonehead play on a good drive and threw an INT

Total embarrassment

Nope. The plan is to get Hopkins a few meaningful drives each game. He was close to beating TJ3 out in fall camp and it makes sense to get him as much experience as we can given Tylers injury history.

Yeah, we look terrible. Exactly the same as when we play anybody that's worth a damn.

I'm just going to skip these games going forward. For some reason we're the only championship caliber team that doesn't show up for them.

Yeah, we're going to lose this game by 60.

I'm not embarrassed just disappointed with mis-reads on defense. Their #2 in the nation and if the rankings are even close this game should be out of hand. We need to settle down and make plays regardless.

?

Did any DBs make the trip?

This may be the worse UAB game I've ever watched lol.
