Heupel is Figured Out

[2k15]

A piddling Gamecock team figured out the recipe to beat Tennessee. They hung their corners 10 yards back and never let the Vol receivers get behind them. The fact about this offense is it's not designed to put up long, sustained drives. Gamecocks gave up the short ball all day and Heupel's offense just isn't built to take advantage of that. SC had nothing to lose taking a risk like that on D and it paid off in a big way. You beat this offense by hanging your corners back.

Make no mistake, this game is on the defense, but don't let that distract you from what happened on offense. That Gamecock defense was one of the worst in the SEC with multiple injuries. Any other SEC team is going to watch how they handled the Vol offense and just execute that formula better. Heupel needs to address that in his scheme or teams will have him figured out real soon.

Tennessees offense scored on multiple 10+ play drives last night.

Tennessees offense scored on multiple 10+ play drives last night.

And punted what twice? You can’t expect them to score every time they touch the ball.

 

[allvol123]

We likely score 40+ if Hooker doesn’t get hurt.

this was all on defense.

South Carolina basically did.

I mean it's the best offense in college football. Of course things were going to be there. But that was a bad SC defense and that scheme alone showed a weakness in this Vol offense that nobody has exploited before. Elite SEC programs are only going to take that formula and run with it.

 

[BP4Prez]

Exactly. That was the problem. Not the offense.

We scored plenty enough points to win on the road. This was on the defense and that ain’t on Heup. (Unless he refuses to fix it, then it IS on him)

Defense was the story last night. The offense was far from perfect but SC may as well been running plays against air. 1 punt all night. 9 TD drives.

 

[NeverWe'llSever]

Defense got bodied. Period. South Carolina scored 6 points last week. 38 should’ve easily been enough to win.

 

[allvol123]

If scoring 40 means you have us figured out, I’m ok with that.

 

[MurphyVol]

38 points and 500 yards ought to be plenty enough to beat SC

I cannot remember a worse defensive showing.

Lmfao OP knows what he’s talking about! Heupel might as well retire. Defenses are only going to let him score 30-40 now instead of 40-50!

 

[2k15]

As I said, defense was THE problem. I'm saying not to overlook how SC exposed Tennessee's offense from a schematic standpoint. They defended it the best they could with a rag tag defense.

We’ve done fine vs Saban, Stoops, and Narduzzi. Our problem is protecting the QB and running the ball effectively enough to dictate changes to the defense. If the D sags back, you should be able to run.

 

[KeyVol14]

We gave up 63 points to one of the worst offenses in the country. Nobody would have seen that coming. I still can’t wrap my head around it

 

[djwes]

Last night was on the D, the corners sitting back is a straight forward adjustment for O, the late drag route SC was using is just one example which they executed well. As noted in another post, seems like we force the ball to Tillman vs taking what's there, SC also used numerous targets and spread the wealth around, keeps the D guessing, we didn't. extremely poor game prep, zero wrinkles for SC to figure out.

 

[rocketskates]

Don’t think that the offense was the issue. We only punted twice.

 

[Cartervol]

No. Worst I have witnessed and that includes Sal Sunseri..

 

[Volfan39]

The defense quit. That’s the problem, not the offense, not hooker, the defense. All I care those trash talking bums can never step on the field again all I care

 

[daj2576]

Exactly. That was the problem. Not the offense.

You're saying they could score every time, but we shouldn't be expected to do that with the far superior offense?

 

[BP4Prez]

I cannot remember a worse defensive showing.

I can’t imagine there is one. Literally scored a TD on 9/10 drives.

Step away from the computer and take a deep breath, the offense scored more than enough to win

 

[BP4Prez]

Yes that’s what I’m saying. Its unrealistic and a historically bad defensive showing that allowed that.
