The offense looked good that drive!

Agreed. Offense is fine when we don't put the ball on the turf. Problem is, that's a huge part of football. You cannot put the ball on the field. Or you simply cannot win football games. Wayyyy too many personal fouls tonight. Coaches need to crack down on that. Defense looks fine. Get put in crappy positions time after time and you're going to give up points. We will be fine. Plenty to build on.

I don't think we were out talented we were out football handling skills. We are moving the ball well tonight when we could hold onto the ball.

The good news, is that the fumblitis is curable. Equal turnovers and this game would be really close in the 4th quarter. I'm predicting a good ACC season for you. Please win the ACC.
P.S. Oregon is beating Virginia 20-6.

Sad part is people are going to hype Tennessee after this game, but I expect them to get smoked by the other SEC teams this year after watching them tonight.

Yeah, the Stanford/UCLA bowl games and the OSU game last year were embarrassing, but this is the first game that has made me physically sick.

Can you guys believe that they cancelled the Battle at Bristol?

Bring on BC!

hurry up offense is working now....as it was in the first quarter...why did we go away from it?

The fact that we are comparing ourselves to UVa and some people are going 'oh well at least we're not UVa who lost to Richmond LOL' shows how much of a pathetic spot we are in.

We should be ashamed of feeling good that we haven't hit UVa's standard yet. That's how bad we are right now.

Are we all sufficiently embarrassed now? I hope so. Now we at least know who we are. We are not a competitive team. We are a rebuilding project. It will take time. Years. It starts now. We were handled by a team that almost lost to Appalachian State. No excuses.

So far we've held Dobbs to 53% passing with less than 100 yards!

I get that we have new staff, but literally nothing that happened tonight was due to miscommunication or other mistakes that happens when implementing a new system. Our senior guys fucked up repeatedly. We were out talented by Tennessee. We are embarrassed in the biggest football game of all time.

Using cfbstats.com as reference, here are our Fumbles Lost since 2008:

2008: 8
2009: 10
2010: 8
2011: 8
2012: 9
2013: 4
2014: 11
2015: 7
2016: 9

This is not a post-Beamer issue, this is entirely a Fuente issue. We have turned the ball over NINE TIMES in two games, literally all of them being fumbles. We've already lost more fumbles in these two games than we did in 5 of the last 8 seasons. It is absolutely unacceptable.
