Just mute your line until the conference call is done. I’m on vacation in two days and don’t want negative vibes.I will be pulling hard for the Vols this weekend.
Just been burned too many times on this one so I am trying to set appropriate expectations so I am not completely pissed off for a month.
This is exactly what’s happening. We are still transitioning from a zone blocking scheme to a man blocking scheme. The OL is having to think more because now the assignments are hat on hat. We saw it the very first play of the WV game. They are learning and we will get better in the interior as the season progresses.
They absolutely DONT have better DL or LB. What would make you say that?
The way they’re shutting down the run?
Maybe it their relentless pass rush that only occurs when the bring the corner off the edge.
Think LB is a push and would give the edge to our DL. They’ve been pushed around
I have absolutely no confidence about the game this week...how many times have we played them when we were the better team, but come away with the L?
Regardless, this gets my blood flowing every year for this game. Enjoy (and, if you're not wiping tears from laughter throughout most of this, there's something wrong with you).
Eh, I’m not sure about any of that.They absolutely DONT have better DL or LB. What would make you say that?

Eh, I’m not sure about any of that.
Our defensive stats are better but we’ve played two total cupcakes and they’ve played one.
And let’s not throw stones about pass rush considering they have 8 total sacks to our 5.
I actually believe they have much better Edge rushers than we do. Stats may not show, but the film doesn't lie at the lack of pressure from Kongbo and D. Taylor.
Also, their WR's are actually probably superior to ours but its a tossup.
I like UT in a close game, but we will have to let JG loose to win.
