| UT: Did we over look UCLA or is this the best we have?
Watching the UCLA game they came and played the best game they could and ended up winning. Now did UT look at what UCLA did against SDU and think hey UCLA has 2 freshman OL and a fresh QB. We will destroy them. Plus After how we destroyed WKU we are going to cruise to UF. Or did UT show up but this is as good as the talent we just have? Was this UCLA game a head to head game which we lost or did we over look them
Another thing is UCLA might just be good, who knows since their qb will be gone now for 3-4 weeks.
I hope to God we just over looked them because Auburn, UGA, S carolina look good now so if this is all we have then another 5 win season might be coming. Lord I hope not.

| UT could have won that game with decent QB play. That didn't happen. I didn't see anything that made me think they weren't prepared. Aside from the obvious issue of quarterback, and that was purely him choking in a game.

| I have always said good defense beats good offense. The problem there is both teams had good defenses. UCLA coming in, we knew would have a good defense and their offense was weak. What noone counted on was Tennessee making so many offensive screw ups themselves. Problem is, with that QB you have there, it doesnt look like that will be the last of the screw ups. | |

| I agree it was definitely the QB play. But it wasn't only AFTER the fumble in the 2nd quarter. I watched the first drive again and we had two first downs because of penalties (both we were stopped on 3rd down), AND JC missed a wide open target in the end zone and threw it to a defender. We luckily ended up with a FG. The whole team was prepared, except for the guy who has the ball on EVERY SINGLE DOWN. UCLA was not "overlooked". | |

Now the question is can Crompton come back or is Stepehens any better.

| I seriously hope UT didn't overlook UCLA, considering the pathethic way the game was lost last year. | |

| The defense was prepared, but the offense looked off. The QB play was bad, but the recievers and the O line also seemed to be a little off. I think Lane said something to the effect that some receivers didn't practice all week but still played anyway? Is this true? I can't remember where I heard that. The run game didn't produce as much as we hoped for as well. Just MO. | |

I can't say much for the receivers because they were barely thrown to.

Don't need a crystal ball for that. Defense will stand tall until they get worn down---like last year. Eventually everyone gives up on a lost cause. (cromp) | |

| Let's just hope we were very limited because we were hiding all of our good stuff from the Gaytor film watchers. Somebody pass me another Orange Koolaid please.
