Gameplan

Sudeepvol · 09-09-2007, 10:40 PM

Offense - Run,run,run....theres a stat, something like the team that wins the running battle won 12 out of the last 15 games
-Deep ball....if our running game really works, ainge should be able to light it up.

Thoughts?

Step 1: Run or pass the ball into the endzone.
Step 2: Kick Extra Point.
STep 3: Kickoff and do not allow the other team to run it back.
Step 4: Tackle ballcarrier 3 times for minus yardage.
Step 5: Recieve punt and either a) pick up as much yardage as possible and/or b) TAKE IT TO THE HOUSE!
Step 6: repeat steps 1-5

That would be my gameplan

Controlling the clock on offense by running and medium range passes will probably be the way to go. Even though our defense looked better in the second half last night, I'm still not sold on them by any means.

As bad as it might sound, our offense needs to keep our defense off of the field as much as possible. Going deep and scoring quick won't accomplish that.

Run the ball effectively.

Make Tebow beat you with the pass.

yes controlling the clock will be a very big issue given that both teams can put up points...if our running game works as decent as it was against cal, we should be able to control the clock somehwat

Getting those 3rd and threes will be key. I don't know what it is, but it seems to me that Tennessee ends up with more 3rd and 3's than any other team. I hate 3rd and 3.

If our running game is like it was at Cal we lose. Have to be able to pick up 3rd and short via the run.

i dont know if any of you have seen highlights of the past two florida games, but they have a sort of "play action" play in which tebow first appears to be executing his patented Tebow smash (where he just runs up the middle), then backs off and throws it deep...it caught the first two teams off guard...Tebow has the ability to execute a lot of trick plays...chavis needs to watch out for that

you can count on Meyer throwing a load of trick plays in there this weekend.

I've seen our defense, I can't ask for too much. Stopping the UF run game will give us a chance that I'll take.

I've seen that play. Tebow basically creates his own play action fake. It's pretty ingenious.

Magic number: 30 pts.

Can the Offense score 30 pts and can the Defense hold UF to less than 30?

Vols must establish the run and the RBs must make some players miss when one on one.

EA will have to find another WR than Rogers....He has shown that his tendencies to go to him on key plays.

i think the game breaker for tenn has to come in the running game for us to have a chance...much like in 2001

Good play, yes. However, that play takes some time to execute and if we can get some pressure from our front seven then we should be able to get to Tebow by the time he has time to step back, read the D and throw. If they stonewall us then we are in for a long night.
