I appreciate the frustration they've had over the years, and really wanting to stick it to Kiffin in their home stadium, but man... that's just low rent.

As for the UT backup QB who came in, that last play was pathetic. 1 thing he HAD to do was throw the ball down to the Endzone. Not over it, not out of bounds, and certainly not try to tuck and run. Give your team a chance and let it fly... not since Reggie Ball at GA Tech have I seen a worse way to end a drive, game.

Yeah we're just going to disagree because I've watched the video dozens of times and it seems clear to me that based on where his mid section was when his knee hit that the ball would have been all over the 40.

Hell I just watched it 3 more times and his knee hits just inside the 41 yard line which is the spot where they placed the ball. At the time his knee hits his body is essentially parallel to the ground so it seems impossible that his torso wasn't all over the 40.

Maybe Forensic Files will do an episode.

Don’t care what the call is as fans in the stands it’s a pathetic situation to be throwing crap on the field. Horrible and embarrassing for UT and the sec.

Sanky has already issued a statement. UT is about to get torched.

Give it up guys ....

Tennessee came into Jordan Hare one year...30 point underdogs and proceeded to whip our butts 42-0.

In the endzone in front of the student body ...Every TD scored in that corner was met by crap being thrown by the students. Mostly chunks of ice ....

We've done it .... We're not Saints by any stretch.

Apparently we're not vicious enough to throw golf balls.

That was disgraceful. I missed the end of the game. I have seen it on several college football shows. If fans storming the field costs $250K, that garbage should be at least double. That is embarrassing for the SEC. It is embarrassing for college football.........which is the best thing ever invented, IMO.

I only watched the one time, so there may be more about this that I missed . However the announcers were marking on the screen where his knee was but were oblivious to where the ball was at that time.

Looked to me that Tennessee got a bad spot.

Agreed, but it was a terrible spot. Should’ve been a 1st down.


How can u say that with all certainty?

It looked short, but who knows from the camera angles they have for that game. They were horrible.

If you don't have a camera down the line or at least on the other side of stadium, this is what we get.

The announcers and the ref expert all were not sure, but with the ball on his hip, it made it easier to say he didn't get there.

But the fans...it was more of a 'we hate Kiffin'. It wasn't going to take much for those fans to do something.

What I hated the most? Almost every single play either for Tenn or Ol Miss a player would fake a injury or cramps.

That was ridiculous too. I wish there was a way for the refs to do something about that. It added another half hour to the game, even without the controversial play.

At least when Auburn is involved I can understand orange and blue glasses fogging things up sometimes but how can some of you watch that and think that the ball made it to the 40 before his knee was down?

I was there for that one as well. That was the nail in Barfield’s coffin.

What I remember being thrown was oranges. But it pretty much subsided by halftime when it became clear we were getting our asses kicked.

Wow what an embarrassment at the :54 mark left in the game. Please Auburn fans never act this way

i honestly dont mind that reaction. these SEC officials and the replay booth need to be investigated for the purposefully blown calls. The gaslighting is unreal.

not as much as i mind watching the replay and having the officials straight up lie about it.

Sometimes you have to take a stand and it doesnt look pretty.

You need to get some perspective in your life. That is as trashy as it gets regarding a fanbase. If ours did that shite, I would have a hard time putting anything Auburn on again.
