I don't post that often with my work schedule, but I had some time this morning to ponder the season that is upon us and wanted to share my thoughts and garner some conversation.
I truly believe this year is different for the VOLS and here is 10 reasons why...
1) There is almost ZERO hype surrounding this team, and that's a good thing. Bama aside, it seems (IMO) the teams that aren't talked about perform above their expectations. This team is extremely talented and has the ability to make it to Atlanta.
2) We have two extremely talented QB's. Whichever one steps on the field is more than capable to lead this team to an SEC Championship appearance. I would even venture to say that they are both as talented as any other QB in the SEC. Remember what Johnny Football did his Redshirt Freshman year?
3) You can say what you want, but our defense was decimated with injuries last year. I expect a great improvement on that side of the ball.
4) This is the best coaching staff Jones has ever had, and it will show with play on the field. Think about it, four of our coordinators/position coaches have been head coaches at one point in time. That is a wealth of experience that is being passed down to our guys.
5) A legitimate QB coach was well overdue. It will show.
6) Florida and Georgia are highly overrated this year. A 2-3 loss SEC east team will more than likely be in Atlanta. We have the talent to do it.
7) We have arguably a top 3 OL in the entire SEC. We already had a stout running game. Expect that to continue.
8) I just have a really good vibe with Larry Scott calling plays. I expect to see a little more of a traditional offense this year. See what we did running I formation, QB under center, or two TE sets and foam at the mouth with the potential.
9) Jones NEEDS to get to the SEC championship. He blew it last year. The steps he has taken in the offseason with new hires and cutting ties with old friends shows he knows that too.
10) Eff Bama, Florida, Georgia and Vandy
GO VOLS!!
