For now the "paper pounders."

When they actually do something on the field against opponents we can come up with something else.

With all this positive talk regarding our defense... it just may warrant a nickname!

My suggestion...

Big Orange Wrecking Crew! or
Wrecking Crew (for short).

Hopefully, gone are the days of bend but don't break...
these guys are coming after your a$$. Not giving you an inch, won't make it to the 50, third down for what, gettin after it like a bunch crazed dogs, not playing around...
Wrecking Crew!

Suggestions?

Jancek is not really of the bend but don't break philosophy. He's not blitz-happy either, but rather picks his spots, which you can do when you have 2 man-eaters at your DE spits, and which allows CJJ to be aggressive with his back 7. And with the DTs we have coming in this class and the experience if the returners, it's going to allow CJJ to be very aggressive. I can't wait to watch this defense develop over the course of the season.

I was under the impression our defense was officially Orange Swarm? I've heard that reference several times. In fact, the Tennessee Football Twitter account called our defense Orange Swarm yesterday. https://twitter.com/Vol_Football/status/584050065683132417 . It's also Cam Sutton's Twitter name (not his handle).

Nobody has said the beasts of the east?

 

[BruisedOrange]

Right now? "Spring Roosters"

But I hope by October "Bricks & Licks" will be a reasonable contender.
