Should be a penalty. Strange that the Vol fans aren't pointing to that missed call.
Tennessee - Purdue Game Discussion Thread
- Thread starter KentuckyBoiler
- Start date
their coach is aggressive and didn't respect our D.
Level of intelligence that’s all I got to say about that lol as soon as I saw him pulling the player I wondered what the Hells going on with the officials. But then I remembered they’ve been letting Tennessee hold all day long so why would they call the right call now… It’s just cute watching the Tennessee fan not even understand the rules and think they’re getting screwed when they’re doing the screwing lol funny as hell
I don't think Brohm is a coaching genius but that tenn coach totally threw the game away with his meathead calls in overtime.
he screwed the pooch pretty hard at the end of regulation too
Can’t pull your runner over the goal line. Should have been a penalty on Tennessee.
Brohm definitely out coached him. We were down plenty of talent and still pulled it out. Gotta give Brohm some props.
one of brohm's best coaching games ever. I believe without GK and Bell and Wright, Brohm made some calls he might normally not have made. He didn't play it close to the vest. he made some gutsy decisions. and it worked. hat's off to our offensive and defensive lines. Our offensive line has been bad mouthed for the past decade. They gave AOC the time to throw and also created a couple of holes on the goal line. and our defensive line without gk played their hearts out. They made the stop when they had to. a huge win for brohm, purdue and the players on the field.
We’ll see how the BCS games are coming up but this was the most exciting bowl game by far this year. The nation was watching and reacting.
Learn the rules goof…you cannot pull/assist a player with the ball to make forward progress… The only blowing cold that way it was the official not throwing a flag on the Tennessee player. Learn the rules or quit commenting on the game

You saying you were down 6 players. We were down 16 players all year. 16-6=10 bro gimme a break. I can't say poor purdue after yall being given the W tonight.
You know that's bullshit. Y'all may have still won if they had called it right. About like y'all may have still won if the holds and pi's y'all committed the entire game had been called. Or if the ball had actually been spotted correctly the entire game. They didn't follow the rules the entire 60 minutes that game was played.
If they had thrown a flag on that then that would have negated anything we could say. But since the entire situation was handled the way it was handled then it's cheating. But cheating had been going on the entire game and I don't know why we have to pick just this one to talk about.
Last I checked my wife isn’t my sister. What you got to look forward to in Indiana? Corn? Tornadoes? Lame. Can’t wait for Hoosier Basketball!
9 wins boys! Got many high fives from Michigan State and Wisconsin fans from the bars tonight. We run deep. Pour some drinks and let’s have a happy new year! Love my boiler nation.
There were blown calls on both sides of the ball all game long. It is part of the game. A superior team, with superior athletes, and SEC speed, would not have been affected by refs. We heard all week that we were going to lose by three TDs to this superior speed and superior strength. I just got into a Twitter battle with a Vols fan whining about the pass interference calls. The simple fact is that the Vol defender played the ball and not the receiver, so the calls were right. The Tennessee superior speed/strength/condition athletes clearly did not have superior skills, intelligence, or coaching.
Hoosiers would kick Tennessee ass in basketball. Did you do any DNA testing? Never know....
Wife/cousin, still incest.
You're a complete and utter moron. And a horrible loser. What if UT were down six top starters they played with the last regular season game they played? Think that might change how effective your team was???
I’m a 2013 grad and I’ll say this now. This year had a different feeling in the air. The Michigan State tailgate and even the bucket game was electric with fans. Even brought my IU fan and he said “damn, full stadium for the bucket?”. We have a lot to be excited about. Thanks for stopping by UT. Was a lot of fun. Like the sweet 16…
And WHY was tennessee below the scholarship limit? Gee, couldn't have anything to do with the NCAA violations committed by the prior staff, could it? Dumba$$.
You do realize it’s been years since IU has beat Purdue in BB but carry on
They’re afraid to look in the mirror and say Ryan Cline 3x. It’s fine.
Another point is that TN was not down 16 players they relied upon in the current season. His comparison is not only unrelated, but stupid and invalid.
Going from 2 to 9 wins it feels like were on the precipice of a very special era. I think we parlay this win into preseason #14. Big ass opener vs PSU to start it off labor day weekend.
Commenting on this reply is like spiking a volley ball on a 4ft net. ... I’ll just simply say we got a good basketball team too. Boiler up!
If your coach didn’t make some bonehead calls at the end of regulation, you probably would have won the game and this play( which was called correctly) wouldn’t have mattered.
Plus the other Tennessee player was pulling on him. Pushing is legal, pulling is not.
no, the pulling by the other Tennessee player was illegal. No TD, you lose.
Hmmmm…given? Learn the RULES 1977VOL…no one was given anything except your lineman who illegally assisted your RB to try ti get him in the end zone…good thing the officials got the first call right because they blew that one on top of the dozen or so PI’s that somehow they just couldn’t see
Damn, your arse is RED/ORANGE…you just came out of the gate showing how goofy you are…maybe it is BURNT ORANGE…back to your board!!!

At first I thought the one UT player was trying to take a poop on the goal line, but as everyone has pointed out, he is illegally pulling on the running back, thus making it look like he’s trying to take a crap. Who knows? Maybe he’s multitasking and trying to do both, but one thing is clear, he was illegally aiding the running back. I haven’t seen one UT fan arguing that the forward progress was called wrong, also argue that there should have been a flag on the UT player. They want the play called correctly, so shouldn’t they want the penalty on that also?
