The basis of the name Volunteers is historic; during the battle of New Orleans in the War of 1812 1500 Tennesseans served under Andrew Jackson and then we volunteered well over represented in the Mexican American war.
Volunteer derives from a culture of Tennesseans serving outside of their own self interests, originating over 200 years ago in war. Same reason Davy Crockett is one of the mascots.
I'm a native Tennessean & a Tennessee VOL so thank you for letting this channel know why we're called the Volunteers!! Well done!! I heard him say he laughed at the name initially but it didn't make me angry it just made me realize he wasn't aware of the reasons why. Also, I want to say to the channel keep wearing the orange & white & become a Tennessee Vols fan we would be proud to have you!!!
@@bryanelam7431 you must admit, in the span of tigers wildcats and other ferocious feline and canine - it’s the last team name you’d expect. I live in Philly and I’ve explained the reason for the name no less than 10 times.
@@thomasbailey7803 first, thank you for telling folks the reasons why! 2nd I'm a Tennessean so I've never thought of the name from a outside perspective but thinking about that in that perspective I can see that it could come across as unusual or different.
@@bryanelam7431 Thanks for not taking offense! I initially laughed in a video because I associated the word Volunteer with the meaning of not being paid or good enough to do the job properly, Now I know the reason behind the name I respect it massively!
I want to become a VOLS Fan but I don't feel like I can call myself a fan after watching 1 game haha. They will be the team I will be looking out for though and hopefully I can call myself a true fan soon. Thanks for the support.
@@BritishGuy22 I'm in the same position with regards to the English Football League. I'm a newer fan of the sport and have no ties to any of the clubs. I can't decide who I'd want to support yet. I'd rather learn the history of the clubs and decide that way, I think. Instead of becoming just another bandwagon fan. Tennessee is the only team I've ever loved and it's because I was born here and grew up with it. I know several other fans of the Vols from the UK. We got a guy on our forums called 'Big Ben' who is a London Vols fan. He often does a postgame review of the team's performance called "A view from Big Ben.". :)
Tennessee broke the record for the loudest recorded crowd noise in Neeland Stadium history (124 decibels). This is a stadium that holds 102,000 people, and it was the loudest sustained crowd I've ever been a part of
It’s Neyland Stadium!!!!!! I love you anyway!!!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️
*102,455 don’t forget those 455 extra people there every Saturday 😉
Also on this, they were so loud in Neyland that they registered on the richter scale!
Neyland
There are college stadiums which outsize pro stadiums -- and I believe this is one such example?
Refreshing to see someone who has zero bias toward any team. Tennessee fan here though! Go VOLS!!
Tennessee fans have been waiting for this for ages. They've lost 15 years in a row until last weekend. Alabama has been the premier program in college football for over a decade now, so knocking them off is quite the achievement for the Tennessee Volunteers, who have been irrelevant since the early 2000s.
Refs knocked them off they won't all that help in the rematch
@@elvangulley3210 yall keep saying that, but i aint heard anything from yall the several years the refs helped your team. Keep crying
@@goodbutbetter help our team lol no those donkey stomps we gave you were from just being better
@@elvangulley3210 salty tears 😭
@@elvangulley3210 not talking about us dummy. I still think its hilarious that literally everyone besides bama fans know that yall get 90% of calls your way. Keep crying
A native Tennessean, lived in England from 83-86, married in Ipswitch, and my daughter was born in England. She graduated from Tennessee. So yes, you have to cheer for Tennessee.
Rocky Top, You'll always be home sweet home to me.
Beyond awesome
There's a lot more passion, pagentry, and tradition as well as money/resources in college football than in the NFL. You'd never see a stadium, or an atmosphere in the NFL, even with the superbowl, like you do in games like this
Definitely react to the fans after the game! Fans stormed the field and tore down the goal posts. One of them got cut up and passed around campus while the other is in the river. Also the name Volunteers comes from their military background
It didn’t get cut up lol it was just broken into a few pieces
@@iiDOCKERY No, it was pulled out of the river and cut into pieces lol
Kinda just that they put the field goal post in the one place where they most likely will pull dead bodies out of and some of the sewage run off ends up from south Knoxville…… The Tennessee river is NASTY
@@wpflesh6510 TN River doesn’t get nasty till it crosses the Bama state line…then it turns to shite.
@@wpflesh6510 ok?
I was born and raised a Tennessee Volunteer. Gibbs almost beat us. This was a huge win for Tennessee
a truly amazing intense game. Lets go vols! (and memphis tigers since that's where I am) I was in knoxville just a fews days after. I would have died to be at that game ;o;
It's hard to beat the refs
I also hate when the refs play bad defense and miss field goals
@@badhabits4eva you can’t forget the refs getting multiple delay of game and false start calls
That was the most intense game I've ever seen, and I'm so glad you got to witness it!
The question you asked about (difference between college vs. NFL) is basically that all the college players perceived to be the best combine to form pro teams.
College fans are more excited about games than NFL fans are, I think.
College football fans are rabid about the sport, especially Vols fans. I love it when we checkerboard Neyland stadium!! Nothing better than being inside Neyland stadium on game day!! #GoVols #Vol4Life #GoBigOrange
I agree, and I'd say there are probably more Vols fans in the state of Tennessee than Titans fans.
@@sammoore9629 I agree 100%
College has way more tradition and passion. NFL has more watchers.
@@pamelajackson69 I bet that is Amazing!!! I've Never been to Tennessee!! I am just getting home to my Cousins house from LSU GAME. LSU BEAT BAMA!!!
Some important history here... The Tennessee Vols (we say "Vawls") was one of the greatest football programs until around 2006. We were Alabamas main rival, having more wins against them than any other program and a very close series. We made horrible hires since 2006 while Bama made some of the greatest hires. Around that time they hired Nick Saban to be head coach- he is now considered the best coach in the game. They beat us for 16 years straight until this year. Our coach is in his second year and is turning this program back to the legend it once was.
Fun facts: Our fight song is widely considered the best fight song in College football, "Rocky Top" a bluegrass song that references the school being by the Smokey mountains (the second verse is about killing federal agents that tried to stop us from illegally making moonshine)
We are the Volunteers because Tennessee men volunteered in large numbers to avenge Davey Crockett (from Tennessee) after his death at the Alamo.
Greatest 'hires' being just Nick Saban. Now he rehabs former coaches as assistants. I look forward to his retirement.
This was easily one of the best games of the year in College Football, and a massive upset by Tennessee to Alabama. Watching that game was heartpounding, the stadium was electric. And if you like to watch more fast paced games, Tennessee is definitely the one to watch. They are snapping the ball faster than any other team and their offense is extremely fast paced. Alabama had nearly DOUBLE the time of Possession in this game, but a touchdown in 2 minutes is just as good as a TD in 8 minutes.
Not one of the best, but the best game of the year so far. And I could go as far as to say that I don't think many games will even have the raw power and emotion that this game did. I "a UT fan since birth" went through 2 strokes, a heart attack, a mental break down, and threw out my voice during the game. Added to that is that I was watching from my living room, and still had that happen. Truly, one of the best games that has been on the rock in aLONG time
One of the best games I've ever seen me, my wife, sister, mom, dad and mother in law all watched it together. We celebrated so much. Almost teared up. We were shouting back and forth with all our neighbors. It was really a special moment.
One of the greatest UT wins of all time.
I still cry/laugh every time that knuckleball goes thru the uprights!
@@patmacrotch5611 it simultaneously the most ugly and beautiful kick I have ever seen lol
@@BlindVeganRescue absolutely
I was at the game. I’m an Alabama fan, but it was cool to see UT get the dub after 15 years. That place shook when that ball went through. They stormed the field and ripped down both goal posts, tossed them over the side of the stadium and carried them and dumped them in the Tennessee River.
I’d also have to recommend you watch some Derrick Henry highlights. If you are a fan of Bama RBs you will love any DH Highlight videos.
Our KING Henry. ;)
@@tngrrl73 henry going to end the game FIRST DOWN AND MORE
Were u at BAMA game tonight???
GEAUX 🐯
as a vols fan this game was very special to me because it was the first time i watched the tennessee volunteers beat alabama in my entire life
As a yank from across the pond, I truly appreciate your willingness to understand American football. I've only delved into a few of your vids, but your ambassadorship reaches the far ends of the US. Bravo dear lad.
The highlights of Tennessee are exactly how Tennessee plays live. They don’t stop the momentum.
"Rocky top you'll always be home sweet home to me! Good ole Rocky top, Rocky Top Tennessee."
GO VOLS #GBO
You should've saw what happened after this game. The Tennessee fans stormed the field and stole the goalpost and threw it into the Tennessee River lol
Hahahaha no way, You guys do things differently across the pond hahaha!
@@BritishGuy22 Yeah Tennessee fans went went crazy
@@BritishGuy22 yes, you definitely cut the video off too soon 😁
3:40 No. It doesn't matter on what part of the end zone the ball breaks the plane. The Kicker decides which Hash Mark to kick the extra point from.
Ok good to know for future reference, Thanks man
@@BritishGuy22 also one of the only differences in college and NFL is if a player goes down without being touched in the NFL, he can get up and keep going. in college your downed.
@@mastercontrol1613 that is far from the only difference. The clock rules are different. One for in for catches. Overtime rules, PI being a spot foul and not 15 yards, field is a different size, the ball is a different size, roster size is vastly different. And a lot more.
@@A_Name_ i Ref Basketball not football, so I am not familiar with every single detail and rule variation of highschool, college, LFL, or NFL.
@@mastercontrol1613 I wasn't trying to give you crap or anything. I was just pointing it out for the dude learning.
He said we go over the top when we win and didnt even see 80k people on the feild tearing down our own goal posts and throwing them in the river lol
Also, on the punt where Alabama turns it over and the coach goes mad; since Alabama was receiving the punt, anytime one of their players makes any kind of contact with the ball, it’s considered live, meaning the kicking team can also recover the ball and maintain possession. Albeit a huge mistake, from the players point of view, I’m almost positive he thought his teammate touched the ball first, thus why he was attempting to recover it before a Tennessee player. With the condensed versions of these games, I know sometimes it jumps to the next play without any explanation.
I watched this game from right outside of the stadium and stormed the field when Tennessee won :,) truly one of the coolest experiences ever. i’ll never forget this game.
If you want to watch a fast paced game in real time, watch this upcoming weekend at 330 EST on CBS. You will see the Tennessee offense and how fast they operate.
A BIG difference in college to NFL is the"hash marks" are closer together in the NFL . (Small yrd lines in the middle of the field)
When a player is tackled outside of the hash marks the refferies reset the ball for the next play to the nearest hash mark.
This effects offensive play calling but mostly defensive alignment because with them being closer together in the NFL there is no short side (boundary side) & wide side (field side) of the field . The ball is placed more in the center after each restart making both sides of the field harder to defend.
This was not just a good game, and not just great game -- it was an instant classic!!!
The extra point is always taken from the middle of the field after a TD so it doesn’t matter where you enter the end zone. It DOES matter on field goals, because whichever hash you go down closest to, that’s where the field goal is taken from. It’s fascinating watching someone watch American college football who doesn’t ever watch. Btw, orange is best, good choice!
If you’re curious why we’re called The Volunteers or Vols for short, during the war of 1812, all states were called to send at least 3,500 men. Tennessee sent about 28,000 volunteers over the course of the war. Since then, Tennessee has been known as the Volunteer State. The volunteer spirit was seen again in recent years when my childhood friend, Holly Bobo, was abducted from her home in 2011. The day she was taken, over 400 volunteers joined law enforcement in the search and that number quickly grew as hundreds more flooded in from all over the state to aid the search.
Couldn't be happier for Tennessee!!!
Greatest moment in Tennessee football history. This is the only game my heart has genuinely pounded for. So fun to watch
I don't think you understand how much we needed this win as a Tennessee fan. I went to school there from 2011-2015. I watched us lose game after game in the stadium. I watched Alabama and Georgia and Florida run all over us.
Last year the Tennessee coach was hired. In 2020 Tenn was 3-7... In 2021 we were 4-4, and now, for the first time since a national championship win in 1998, we are undefeated. Also for the first time in school history We are ranked number one in the college playoffs ranking.
We need this game and we need the season ❤️
Differences between the NFL and college.
1. Skill - players in the NFL are the best from college football.
2. Size and power - extra years to add more muscle.
3. Some rules - for example in college if you fall down or touch your knee or elbow you are down. In the NFL you have to be pushed down or touched while on the ground. Two feet down for a catch in the NFL vs only one for college. Distance between the hash-marks and differences in penalties.
4. Team size - the NFL is limited to 53 players but only 46 can suit up, in college you can have up to 125 players on the team. Different conferences will make rules on how many players can suit up for home/away and playoff/bowl games. They can have 85 players on a full ride scholarship.
4a Number of teams/schools - The NFL has 32 teams but there are around 130 FBS (top level) schools. Only 22 teams have won more than two national championships and only 13 have won 3 or more.
5. Age of the Game - Universities have also been playing much longer than the NFL teams have been around. For FBS schools (top level) Michigan started playing Notre Dame in 1887 but have only played 44 times. Army (US Army Military Academy aka West Point) vs Navy (US Navy Naval Academy) started playing each other in 1890 and have played 122 times. Minnesota and Wisconsin started playing the same year and have met 131 times. Texas started playing Oklahoma in 1900, which is seven years before Oklahoma became a state (it was just a US territory before). 20 of the NFL teams started in the 60's or later.
6. Stadium size - college stadiums DWARF NFL stadiums. The eight largest stadiums in the US are all college stadiums. College stadiums make up 8 of the top 10 stadiums in the WORLD. Okay, AT&T Stadium (Dallas Cowboys) can fit 105,000 people but it only has seats for 80,000.
7. Traditions - College football has deep and long traditions. Also, you never have to worry that some billionaire is going to move the team to another city. A lot of people root for the university they attended so there is a much closer connection to the team.
8. All games matter - In the NFL you can lose games and still make the playoffs and win the Super Bowl. In college, losing even a single game can keep you out of the playoffs/championship. The national championship game has only been a thing since 1992 (don't ask). Only once during this time (2007) did a team play for the championship with more than a single loss.
You might want to start watching my Vols play our offense runs at a blistering pace if you look away you'll miss the next play. Most of our scoring drives happens in less than 3 minutes a lot of them under 2 as well. We like to go fast here at Rocky Top!! GBO!!!
I’ve rewatched this game 10 times and never noticed the ref getting taken out. 😂
Hahaha, I probably shouldn't have noticed it but I still struggle to know where to look during plays, I'm new to the sport but enjoying every second!
@@BritishGuy22 Can u do BAMA vs LSU?
I was born a few blocks away from Tennessee's campus. I've lived in Knoxville as ever since i moved out. I'm a huge "British soccer" fan! cool to see the exact opposite and you're watching my school! GO VOLS!
Glad you're enjoying the videos! Which British team do you support?
Alabama is the Ferguson era United equivalent in college football, they always are good
I appreciate you putting it into football terms for me! Thanks for checking the video man
I will never fault Alabama for being the Best, but this year it’s different!!!!!!! I’m 70 yrs old and have lived my life in Tennessee, but I will root for any SEC team in a championship game!!!!!!!!! I thought Bear Bryant hung the moon!!!! He was a kind, gentle soul like Vince Dooley (RIP TO BOTH)!!!!!!! I’m all for the Volunteers now!!!! After next week, we’ll see who’s for real!!!!!!!
@@BritishGuy22 Bama fans are spoiled cry babies that gripe if they don’t win by 50. The worst fans on planet earth.
Being a “Volunteer” is still something us Tennesseans take very seriously. We are always amount the first to go, last to leave, the hardest to kill, and best shots any branch of our military to this day.
Big difference between College football and NFL football - is age, size, experience . . . you start in grade school, play in high school, get recruited by college then get recruited by NFL.... (remember the players in college games are "kids" - they range from 19-22/23.... still growing! (I'm from Ohio - HUGE Buckeye fan - this was a great game! I love when Alabama loses (which isn't often) - these kids were awesome and played their butts off! Go Tennessee! See you in the playoffs!!
I recorded my reaction to this and it went STUPID. Almost 30k views lmao I cried when we won
Another reason Tennessee is called the Volunteer State is because of the number of men from Tennessee who volunteered to go to Texas and fight at the Alamo, with David Crockett, a Tennessean, as well as the men who volunteered during the Mexican-American War. There were more Tennesseans at the Alamo than Texans. Tennesseans have been well represented in every war.
P.S. We were very sorry to hear of the passing of Queen Elizabeth. She was much loved, respected, and admired here in the states.
Subscribed, just for the fact of hearing a British guy chanting "Tennessee! Tennessee!" 😀 Also, seeing you laugh at Nick Saban's temper tantrum was gold! Hah!
Lifetime Tennessee Vols fan here! Loved your video #VFL #GBO 🧡🧡
That red line at the end of the game is a graphic that the TV crew will put on there to show the viewer how far away the kicker can make a kick. You’re allowed to attempt a field goal from anywhere, but if you miss it the other team gets the ball wherever you attempt the kick from. So most teams want to try and get as close as possible before they kick a field goal if they can’t score a touchdown. But that red line is just to help us see where that teams kicker can make a field goal from
Jahmyr Gibbs is truly incredible - he reminds me of one of the NFL's star running backs, Alvin Kamara on the New Orleans Saints. Gibbs' vision and footwork, as well as his skills as a pass catcher...something tells me he'll be great for whatever team takes him.
The best football game I’ve ever watched.
The pauses in play is where all the strategies are being employed. Like the pause in a chess match .
True fans enjoy trying to decipher the strategies during these pause just like the teams are . Looking at alignment, personal, down & distance and trying to predict the next play .
I’m not sure if it still is but after that win Neyland stadium goal posts registered on Google maps as a landmark in the Tennessee river 😂
That was the best college game of the year so far... the even BIGGER one is this Saturday when Tennessee plays #1 Georgia.
15 years all changed by a really nice pass and an great field goal
and I hope you found the video of the fans on the field after the game, I know you stopped this one after the kick but man that post game party will blow your mind.
You say that the plays take to long for your liking, but Tennessee actually runs their plays as fast as you were seeing them on the highlights. They are so fast that the defense hardly has time to signal what defensive play they want. Tennessee is the highest scoring team in all of college football.
But I enjoyed your video, your insights and observations. I've subscribed to your channel.
In college the players aren’t necessarily going to the NFL, so a lot of them are playing for fun and team loyalty. NFL players just play for who pays them most.
4:00 to answer the question, On a touchdown play, the team gets to decide where to place the ball for the Try (extra point, or 2 point conversion attempt). Sometimes they may want it on one side if they are going for 2 points to run it in again if they have a play designed for it. But on regular plays, the ball is placed where the player went down unless it is outside the hash marks (the interior 2 sets of yard markers) and it gets brought back closer to the middle. College hash marks are a bit wider and further apart than in the NFL, which gives them more room on some plays, but can make kicking field goals harder.
This game is one of the oldest rivalry games in cfb. As a lifelong tn fan this was 15 years of absolute heart arch finally lifted in the best way possible.
I grew up playing soccer and learned from the age of five until I played American football in high school. I'll tell you this about the difference between the two as far as my experience. Soccer is funner to play if you have the energy to run that much. However the position I played in football as the kicker meant that I stood on the sidelines the whole time and would come in during a pressure situation because in high school back then you couldn't warm up kicking on the sideline with a tee and net because my school was cheapskates. But like I said before soccer was more fun for me than playing football. However backyard football growing up was just as fun as soccer but on top of that I have to say that American football is the funnest and most entertaining team sport to watch.
I tended goal for soccer. Found it boring lol. But with bad asthma it was the only position I could handle, until a guy cleeted me and I got kicked out of the game for a slide tackle where I raked the other kid's leg with my cleets lol.
I don't like getting stepped on
So for your touch down question the little hash marks on the field near the center is where the play starts and it’s determined if it’s left or right based on what side the ball is downed on
Love that u caught that game watch this game.GO VOLS!!!!!!
The Bama quarterback won the award for best player in the country last year. The Bama coach is considered the best ever. The 2nd best ever also coached there from 1958 through 1982.
It’s not necessarily the highlights but how fast and up tempo the offense that Tennessee has this year the fastest in the country it’s one play after the other, Tennessee is such a an exciting football team to watch,This year just because of how fast and explosive the offense is !
Try watching the 2013 Iron Bowl highlights. One of the best plays in college football history is at the end.
The Tennessee marching band is performing at London Band Week at the end of June. It will be the largest band ever to perform in London. The band has 350 members.
The time in between plays is good because it's like military strategy. The formations both teams line up in before the ball is snapped is part of the excitement. You can see mismatches and where to attack on offense based on alignments and what you need to defend against if you're on defense. Will the offense try to throw the ball toward the sideline or over the middle? Short or deep? You have to have those options covered, but if you have too many players defending the pass then the offense could run the ball for a lot of yards before you can get to them. It's an educated guess or prediction on every play. Teams study game film of the teams they are playing leading up to the game. So they see if player A lines up in this position then they are likely trying to run or pass based off what they have done previously. Sometimes the defense will attack and send more players to tackle the quarterback but they have to get there fast because they won't have enough players covering receivers. The offense is always trying to keep the defense guessing by changing things. They are trying to figure out if the defense is playing man to man or if a defensive player is just covering a certain zone on the field. That's why players on offense will move sideline to sideline before the ball is snapped. That allows the offense to see if a defender moves with him. That tells the offense that the defender is playing man to man. Meaning that defender is responsible for that offensive player. Can that offensive player beat that defender one on one? If they can then that's probably where you want to go with the ball. If I watched a game with you and broke it down as they played you would love it. You start to see what the teams are looking at and trying to accomplish before the play begins, and what makes certain players so good. It's like rugby and chess mixed together. Every player is responsible for a certain task on every play and it's not always the same. On running plays the offensive linemen are trying to move defensive lineman certain ways to open holes for the runner to run through. The runner and everybody in the team knows which hole in the line is supposed to open up. Can the offensive linemen do their job and open the hole? Can the running back find a way to gain yards even if the whole doesn't open up? Each play is like a battle. Each position is a battle. The whole game is a war.
i was at this game it was absolutely crazy go Tennessee!
Very jealous of you sir!
You have to watch the celebration after the game. It was epic celebration!
No, it doesn't matter what part of the endzone you enter to score. In college, it only matters if the ball crosses the plane. You'll often see some really wide touchdown's when the carrier just extends their arm so the ball crosses the plane before they are thrown out of bounds. Where the pylons are. The extra point attempt is always going to be dead center. If a team doesn't manage to score and is in field goal distance and they opt to try for the field goal, then it matter where the ball is. It could be center, it could be left, it could be right. There are two lines that run down the field around the center. You'll line up somewhere inside those for the field goal. It can get a little tricky to judge a touchdown if the carrier crosses the ball over, but for instance maybe his knee was down before then...they'll mark it short. They often review a lot of those plays.
I. Love. Football !!! 🏈🏈🏈 I’m a Mississippi girl and the teams of the SEC - Ole Miss, Miss State, Alabama, Tennessee, Georgia, etc.(Southeastern Conference)are usually bitter enemies. My state teams aren’t doing great this year and I’ve never rooted for TN but I am this year. Alabama is usually the unbeatable Goliath of the SEC and always nationally ranked. And Nick Saban (Alabama) is one of the greatest college coaches ever. TN hasn’t won against them for 15 games. I’m so proud of TN this year and I’m rooting for them as National Champions. And no, it doesn’t matter where they cross the goal line to score. Any fraction of the football must ‘cross the plane of the goal line’ and the pylons are on the goal line. The football has to pass over the goal line inside the pylons and it’s a touchdown. And the NFL are the best of the best from college. Several of these players, esp. QB Hooker, Bryce Young, J. Hyatt, are NFL caliber. There are even high school athletes that are so good that they are drafted by the NFL from HS.
One of the biggest differences between NCAA and NFL football is speed. Everything happens faster, that 280 pound linebacker is getting to the QB a second or two faster. The QB is releasing the ball in under a second. That 220 pound running back impacts like a 300 pound lineman. Bigger, Faster, Stronger
Also in college level sports, a solid 60% of your players are just making memories. They have full degrees and are working towards their future in the business world. In the NFL, every single player is spending everyday of their life getting better at their craft, getting faster, stronger....bigger. Its really noticeable at the QB position, you see alot of QBs that are highly sought after in the draft, have amazing combine and pro day showings...and proceed to shit the bed once the lights come on. Outside of the basic premise of the game and the fundamentals of a position, nothing translates from college to the NFL
Insane game
Yeah this game was crazy! I'm definitely looking forward to reacting to more highlights of the best game of the week
That red “FG Target Line” is the estimated range of that team’s kicker. You can technically attempt a field goal from your own 1 yard line, but you won’t make it lol
It’s great to be a Tennessee fan
Honestly, everyone but Alabama fans loved this result lol. That’s a testament to how dominantly good Alabama have been historically and recently, and that coach they kept showing, nick saban, is the top tier of college coaches. His BASE salary this year is $9.8 million, but he will make around $13M by the end of the year. He’s that good. I’m not an Alabama fan, but I also really dislike Tennessee, so the best part of this one for me was watching the fans celebrate the upset and throw the goal posts in the river at the end of the game hahaa.
I feel like any team that beats Alabama should get their respect. They have been so dominant for years and don’t really even lose like that. They only either lost 1 game their whole season or rarely gets a 2 loss season. Last time they even had a 3 loss season was back in 2010. Props to them though.
Great video. Most college players are getting paid nowadays. NIL (Name, Image, Likeness) was implemented into the NCAA either last year or this year.
You cut off too early. The fan celebration at the end was the best part
Another fun fact: The southern US has the best college football in all America and its not even close. We eat, sleep and breathe football.
much love from tennessee, i got my english woman to love tn so you can too. we're the fastest scoring team in the country so youd enjoy more
After this game tennessee was 121 in time of possession of 131 college teams but was number 1 in both points per game and yards per game... tennessee is a very fast paced team
There are some minor differences in the rules of college and NFL football. For instance, a catch in college football only requires one foot in bounds, provided that it’s the foot that hits the ground first, but in the NFL, if you don’t get both feet in bounds and have control of the ball, then it’s an incomplete pass
3:48 it doesn’t matter too much but if you look at the middle of the field there are 2 lines that go endzone to endzone and whichever side the ball is closest to at the end of the play is where the ball is placed for the start of the next play. For example if someone is tackeld on the left side of the field, the ball will be placed on that yard line on the left hash for the next play. This rule applies for field goals as well but in this scenario it’s an extra point and I believe the kicker gets a choice on where he wants it. Hope this helps.
College rules are often different from NFL rules. As for the pauses, think of each game as a series of set plays, which it is. The tension builds before each play.
Paid attendance approx. 101,900 and a thousand or two support people. I was there and there was a full crowd 2 hours after the game on the field ....................... What a nail biter of a game.... down to the last 2 seconds before the win. ........................ enjoy
I've seen this game like 10 times and that is the first time I saw the referee get taken out, thanks to your observation.
Great reaction! The players are paid now lol
The kick --extra point attempt -- is always taken between the two hash marks at the center of the pitch regardless of where the touchdown is made.
Was at this game! Go Vols!
Mate I have been to Soccer games in the UK while training with British Special Forces they were crazy loud. But trust me when I say "Neyland Stadium is the loudest in the world"! I do believe you have became a Volunteer Fan! Welcome to Vol Nation! Come to Tennessee and watch my Volunteers!
It doesn’t matter where the TD is scored as long as it breaks the plane over the line and is in bounds. The kickoff isn’t dependent on where the TD IS SCORED. ALSO, Alabama has won 6 national championships. This is a BIG game for Tennessee!
The biggest difference between college and NFL players is that the college players may make more mistakes, but they are more passionate and give it more heart and effort because they don't get paid and do it for the school and love of the game. The college fans are also more passionate than NFL fans. You will NEVER see NFL fans half as passionate as the Tennessee fans or other fan bases. I used to watch NFL but no longer. I ONLY watch college football now.
Some of the rules are different between the two. In college football for instance, when the player with the ball falls, the play is dead there, but in NFL, if the player with the ball falls, he can get back up and run again unless he fell as a result of a defense touching him made him fall. But if he trips himself and falls, he can get back up and run.
Also, with a pass interfere penalty in college, it's a 15 yard penalty from where the previous play started, but in NFL, wherever the pass interfere penalty happens, that's where the offense gets the ball. So if a QB passes the ball 50 yards down the field and the receiver gets interfered with, it's a 50 yard penalty. But if the pass interfere penalty occurs in the end zone, they get the ball on the one yard line.
Another difference is the overtime rules. In college, each team gets the ball from the 25 yard line to try to score, so after one team gets a chance, the other team gets a chance from the 25 yard line, and they keep playing until someone wins and there is no running clock. In NFL, they flip a coin to see who gets the ball first. If the first team gets a field goal, then the other team gets a chance to score, but unlike college, they don't start from the 25 but have regular kick offs. If they both match field goals, they keep going. But whatever team is the first to score a TD wins the game. So it's possible that the other team will never get the ball at all in overtime. Also, if the score is tied after 15 minutes, the game just ends in a tie.
To answer your question, it does NOT matter where on the field you score a TD. The PAT (extra point) will always be tried from straight on. Field goals however, ARE placed on the hash marks. The hash marks (the white lines on either side of the center of the field) in college are MUCH wider apart than they are in the NFL. So even though the college uprights are wider apart in college, the angles for a field goal can be much sharper in college. Hope that helps
The noise level at that game got to 124-125 decimal Hyatt had 6 catch's and 5 touchdowns just amazing young men
Referring to your question towards the beginning- where it matter you score the touchdown- it doesn’t!
But that’s something I didn’t know about rugby!
I don’t even know how to describe being a Tennessee fan other than …….. I love it. I love the people I love the University.. I love being a VOL 🟧⬜️🟧⬜️
I tape all games and then when I watch I fast forward through the commercials and other stops in play. I can watch an entire game in under 50 minutes.
That winning field goal was actually partially blocked. That's why it was a knuckball.
In gridiron football, it doesn't matter where the ball is on a touchdown. Special teams always lines up centered on the goal post for the extra point kick.
One of the biggest differences between College and NFL is that in the NFL you must be tackled by contact so if you simply fall down and no defender touched you, you can then get back up and run. In college if you fall to the ground you are down even if no one touched you. In the NFL to complete a catch you have to have both feel down and college only requires 1. College Overtime will continue until a winner is decided where as the NFL OT is only 1 extra period and if still tied the game then ends in a tie. The clock will stop in College after a 1st down but will not in the NFL. The NFL has 2 minute warning at the end of 2nd and 4th quarters and College does not. NFL coaches have video replay challenge flags they can use where in College all video review is initiated by the officials in a booth. NFL has a much better playoff system based on wins and losses with several layers of tie breakers such as head to head or conference record. College has playoffs but a committee simply picks the 4 teams with no clue about what criteria they use. I can't think of anymore right now but if I do I will comment again lol.
Re. your question about where a given player in American football can score a touchdown relative to the goal-line:
First, pardon me if I'm not the first to provide an answer
In American football, unlike in "soccer" football where the scoring area is a more-confined space, its scoring area is called an "end zone", and it extends laterally from pylon to pylon and ten yards deep to the rear of the end zone where the goal posts are located. Once any player with the ball in their possession crosses their opponent's goal-line anywhere between the two pylons, they've scored a touchdown. If they're a receiver who catches a pass anywhere inside the end zone, that's also a TD. Also, if they are diving towards the end zone and they cross the imaginary infinite vertical plane of the goal-line, with ball in-hand, and that ball crosses the plane with them, it's a TD if their knees don't touch the field outside of the goal-line. If their knees do contact the ground before the ball crosses the plane, they are considered down at the spot where their knees made contact, and the ball is spotted there to set-up the next play -- f on fourth down, the opposing team assumes possession there.
I will say this about college athletes and getting paid: a law was passed recently which now allows college athletes to make money through independent merch (known as NIL, or Name, Image, and Likeness). Schools have never been legally allowed to pay the athletes (note:. A lot of schools did it anyways through various loopholes and workarounds). So players can make their own merchandise and stuff and make money legally now. It's really complex, but basically a lot of the better football schools have an association of fans that pool their money together to pay their college athletes, especially if they're a highly-ranked recruit . Alabama has one of the largest of these associations in the country; so, they're able to pay their players much, much more than most schools can.
I attend the University of Iowa (Hawkeyes), but most of my family is from Tennessee and attended the U of T, so I kinda root for both. Iowa recently lost a recruit to Alabama because Alabama just had more money to offer him than we did. It's an understandable decision, but that's kind of just how it is now. Pretty much the entire college football world hates Alabama, and now with me being into the Vols and the Hawkeyes... well, I might hate them more than most lol.
So glad you're getting into American football! College football is much better, IMO. Much more passionate fans.
10:38 Size, strength. If you're drafted in the NFL, you'll have to put on weight (there are exceptions). The rules in college is slightly different.
The average game takes a little over 3 hours, so watching the highlights is a must if you want to see the best college and NFL games of the week. The college players receive a free education plus room and board for four years. The best college players go on to play professional, and the best of the best college players can end up making millions their first year in the pros.
There are many rule differences. For instance in college Pass Interference is a spot foul up to 15 yards but in the pros it's a spot foul, there is no limit on distance. Also during the college game, the clock would stop after every first down which doesn't happen in the pros. The difference in game time between college in pros was quite a lot. So college has adapted the rule to be more like the pros but there's still difference.
Best game I've ever watched 😉
