Bama Game Thread: Official Postgame Thread - Bama @ Vandy...

The whole reason behind the rule is for player protection, specifically to protect/prevent(which is impossible) concussions. Wellllllllll that player was obviously concussed by the hit he took from the opposing players. Therefore it's a dang penalty. He wasn't concussed because he was tackled and his head hit the stupid fake turf, or because he caught an errant knee while being tackled. It's just a botched call by an SEC official (replay this time which should never happen) so I shouldn't be shocked. They all suck.

yes, that's the intent, but the rule is written with a 'defenseless player' in mind. On this play, Prentice didn't meet that definition per the rule. Maybe the rule should be edited, but as it is now, he was not defenseless.

This is exactly the type of play the rule is designed to eliminate.

was prentice 'defenseless' per the rule?

We really won't know how bad this loss really is until later this season. We have no idea how this team will respond.
The biggest issue to me is the defensive scheme and overall discipline and effort are a close second.

True. A good team will beat USCe like they stole something. A meh team will lose or allow them to stay in the game and just barely get by.

At what point do we wonder the same about the run game on O? ... much more difficult to dominate/exert your will without it

We looked soft, undisciplined, and unprepared on both sides of the ball.

Well we have someone to share our grief with: Arkansas just beat Tennessee.

I know it will sting but SEC Shorts is going to be epic this week. I guess the Vandy pimp walk is back.

Gotta give it up for Pavia - from out here in NM, not a hotbed of D1 FB talent. Undersized, unrecruited, but tough and smart and now has both Bama’s and Auburn’s scalps on his belt.

Yup. He’s a gamer

Least Auturd and UcheaT fans wont be rubbin it in too much.

 

[JDCrimson]

Pavia has that Pat Trammell quality, all he will do is beat you.

Awbern was counting on winning the Vandy game to get to 4 wins....

Now it's starting to look like they may only win one more game the rest of the year.😎

 

[thingamajimbeux]

And 100% deserved!

Yeah, can't even hate on that.

 

[JDCrimson]

Well, we play like we did today and we wont beat Auburn either...

Does Lea stay at Vandy much longer or will he ride this win and Pavia to a paycheck job?

 

[RammerJammer14]

Same thing happened in 2012. We walked it off at LSU. Celebrated that win all week instead of prepping for TAMU. They came in hot and by the time we woke up, it was too late. Still won the natty that year though. So...Chin up.... Ball up top. Roll Tide.

Vandy is not Texas A&M with Johnny Manziel. I don’t even think I was alive the last time we lost to Vanderbilt. The lost to frickin Georgia State. And we couldn’t stop them. This is an atrocious loss.

 

[NoNC4Tubs]

Today was disappointing, but at least we ain't awbern! 😎

Even Russaw struggled when they put him there.

Russaw been struggling since the injury. Not sure he's back to full game speed.

Q was a force for a bit there but he was either subbed out or became invisible himself.
