From a lifetime Bamar, Nico's ceiling is in another atmosphere! He started off full of adrenaline and was once again missing long, but he settled in and made the plays and outplayed the opposing upperclassman by far. This game is summed up by horrible play by the Bama signal caller, undisciplined, non-fundamental UA football, solid play by the UT defense , and the UT offense settling in and scoring 24 in the 2nd half to take it to the Tide. I was so hoping that CKD would bring Tenn. native Ty Simpson into the 3rd qtr but NOPE! Now where do we go from here?... I said Bama would be 9-3 this season, but now it appears the slide down may be even further. Congrats to the big orange on a great win! RTR for life.

@@chacaabbaylee768 that's definitely not going to happen. He's a top first round pick right now so staying another year and risking injury just to move up a spot or 3 isn't worth the risk at all. If they paid him 10 million in NIL money maybe but don't see that happening either , he needs the big signing bonus and multi yr guaranteed money contract that being a high first round pick will give him.

If you go, make it a whole thing. I’d get a cabin in Sevierville, if the game is late get there before 10 and bring a rolling cooler. Participate in activities, have a Vols jersey on, and just keep saying go Vols and be friendly and you’ll have the time of your life. Then the rest of the week go to the smokys and check out Cades cove and spend a few days exploring there, and then obviously relax a few days at the cabin with some good food and then run around in gatlinburg pigeon forge sevierville the rest of the time. There’s neat things to do other than the tourist traps but those are fun too 😂😂😂

@7:24 you can’t ignore the egregious holding from the Tennessee lineman. Chances are that tackle would have been made. Refs made a lot of bad calls in this game, that pass interference against Williams is the difference in winning and losing. Ignoring the offsetting penalties in favor of just penalizing Bama on the final drive coupled with ignoring that offsides. You’re talking about a completely different outcome. Tennessee will likely loose two more games. I wouldn’t jump on their wagon just yet. This is an outstanding breakdown but I don’t think it shows their best players in this game, they are the ones wearing the black and white stripes.

So i watched that close to goalline pick where his arm got hit multiple times, and i really think he was either trying to pump fake and run, or possibly just waiting to be sure he wanted to throw the ball away because if you track where his arm is when he is throwing it in the closeup replay, the ball clearly comes out in an unintended direction. It was obviously a mistake to hold the ball that long if you were gonna throw it away, but i dont think he was trying to force that touchdown pass

The title and the comment at 11:29 tells me you really do not have unbiased film study lol If you do a frame by frame of Pearce on that line, his head is in the neutral zone with the ball, which according to NCAA rules, should have been a flag. Even though you won't admit it, this film study sounds VERY biased and that comment at that moment is clear of that.
