Hey, everybody, what's up?

Welcome into it, a little post game reaction podcast here, Locked on Ball, Tennessee Falls.

My final score of 44 to 41 in overtime to the Georgia Bulldogs.

We have so much to unpack. I'm not going to get to it all here on this post game reaction pod. Okay, I'm just going to tell you that right now. We'll come back on Monday morning. We'll have loads and loads of more. I'll have a better idea. I want to go back and rewatch the film and all that. But just some raw reaction right now. And games like this suck, right? If you're a Tennessee fan, this is a tough one to swallow. It really is. For many reasons, and we're going to talk about that here in the next 15 minutes. I'm Eric Kane, member of the vaulquest.com team here in town. Appreciate you guys for being here making lockdown balls a part of your morning routine. Maybe this is Monday or Sunday morning on the way to church. Maybe this is late on a Sunday or Saturday night. I appreciate you guys tuning in to get some thoughts as we kind of work through this together. All right. First and foremost, my biggest takeaway from leaving this game, leaving the postgame press conferences a little while ago before this recording. And I don't think I'm being too harsh. Please tell me if I'm wrong. I'm'm going to give credit worth credits to do, but I'm going to call it the way I see it. Tennessee screwed itself. Tennessee beat Tennessee tonight. And I give Georgia credit. Don't get me wrong. Gunner Stockton, hell, he's a lot better than I thought he was. Okay. Georgia ran the football efficiently. Georgia may plays when it needed to. That throw on fourth and seven, gorgeous dime by Gunner Stockton. He took a beating tonight at times, and he just kept on going and

kept on going. So I will give Georgia credit. Obviously, Georgia made more plays and Georgia won this

football game. But holy crap, guys, you watched the game? You watched the same game I did how many times the

Tennessee have this game won and I say all this fully recognizing that Tennessee was

on the mat several times in the second half and Tennessee kept getting up Tennessee kept

getting up Tennessee competed its tail off Tennessee fought its tail off. Tennessee fought its tail off. I mean,

this was one of those thrilling games and you're on the losing end of it. And it's unfortunate

because somebody does have to lose. Tennessee was done and forgotten about a couple of times

in this football game, but it kept coming back. But having said all that, that still Tennessee had this game won three or four

different times number one fourth and seven fourth and seven get off the field it is fourth and seven

man is that going to be an issue for Tennessee this year it It was an issue against Syracuse. It was an issue here tonight. Fourth and seven. Get off the flipping field. That didn't happen. Okay. Well, you know, sometimes it's a Herculean effort, a Herculean play. I mean, that throw again by Guntherstalkton was incredible. Found London Humphreys, formerly a Vanderbilt, front corner that end zone. Okay, okay. They're going to line up and go for two because they're down by eight. They got to go for two in order to tie this football game up less than three minutes. You don't know if you're going to get the football back. So you got to go for two. Make a stop. Make a stop. Make a stop. The football game is

one. Make a stop. No, that guy is wide open and the two-point conversion is hit and you are
