# | Ask TKP: What's your one positive and negative takeaway from Battle at Bristol? I didn't see the improved tackling. Hard to judge against UTjr with monsters at qb and rb though.
That sack would have been huge for him and was a big swing in the game because it resulted in a td instead of a punt. Hopefully he gets his tackling cleaned up and starts being the playmaker that he looks like he could be.
need to cut them by more than half.
Phillips fumbled twice in the opener as well. He's now responsible for 30% of our fumbles alone. Let one of the young guns start in his place against BC so that he gets the message.

While I agree, this is probably the 5th or 6th season we have heard about how the team attitude had changed in the offseason with everyone bought into change and responsibility, only to have a loss at the start of the season and find out that actually team attitude isn't all that hunky dory.
Maybe it's just how I'm reading the interviews, but I feel like the players and staff are taking more accountability this year than seasons past. Identifying specific issues, assuming more individual accountability and calling out self corrective actions, and instead just saying what they need to work on for the next game stating what they failed to work on leading up to the previous game.
Maybe it's just me, but it seems like a culture change.

Steve Addazio is confident he will playing in a championship game in North Carolina within the next 2 years
No problems that you know of, right? Watching the FSU-Ole Miss game, they mentioned that one of the players was from a really bad area of Orlando that was close to the stadium, and he watched his dad get shot and killed as a child. So, I think there's validity to my statement. When I went to a game there, the whole time my wife was saying she'd never go back because she didn't feel safe. Between Charlotte and the CWS in Orlando, I'll put my confidence in Charlotte every single time. I think it's hard to argue with that.

I hear Bristol Motor Speedway does a good job with football games. /s
5-7 last week. moved up to 7-5 this week.
4 of the 7 wins are a 50-60% likelihood though.
,,,winner would be contacted by phone at the end of the third quarter.
Right. Good luck with that. Cell throughput was non-existent that day.
When I click on the link for the full TKP gallery at the bottom of the post, my browser gives me an error message. It doesn't seem to like the "https" part of the URL and tells me that it's not really secure and that someone might be trying to steal my information.
If I delete the "s", it's cool. Just a heads up on the technical side of things.

That game was a 5:30 PM on ESPN. Herbie would have been with Musburger calling the 8 PM game on ABC. This site says we had Sean McDonough and Chris Spielman.
I feel like Herbie wants to like us, and wants to believe that we're a good team. But every time we get right on the edge, we can't close the deal.
Sometime late in the game, he was giving mad props to one of our guys, and right now, I can't remember which one. Maybe it was Sam Rogers, although he has praised Sam quite a bit and that was one more example.
Besides the punt and bad snap the other fumbles looked like guys losing the ball on second effort. They were prob just trying to do too much and got burned, but another way to frame it was they were being selfish. Wanting to be that guy or get the extra yards. Powerfull way to get guys to cover up the ball and live to run another play. I really hope we hulk smash BC!
If Mike London is the opposing coach on game week, then yes. I would hope every VT coach and player believes and suggests that the opposing coaches and players are great and formidable while preparing to face them.
Hasn't somebody argued on here before on how scheduling a Div 2 team would actually be better than the 300+ RPI teams? What was the basis behind that argument?
