If Bama Can’t Run on TX A&M

Exaggerate much. He is far from horrible.

Meh...

To pretend or even slightly imply Milton is worse than Milroe is absolutely wild. Milroe makes Crompton look like Peyton Manning.

The guy stepped out of bounds. I hate Bama and A&M but it was the right call

Thanks for the confirmation. It was by the slimmest of margins, still lucky for bama.

Let’s focus on A&M first…I liked how their OL got pushed on their ass - hope our guys are ready to do the same

Replay was clear on it. I absolutely hate Bama, have a strong dislike for the boot sliding cult also. But yeah I agree some luck was there. I personally think its on coaching as to why AM lost.

Milroe was 21/33 for 321 yards, 3TDs, 1 INT vs aTm. Let's see how Milton fares.

As long as we win I dont give a damn about his stats.

Got no problem with your stance, but that wasn't the point being discussed. There was a contention that Milroe was a better QB than Milton. Stats are a valid point of comparison. Still, to be fair, I'll rephrase my previous post.
Milroe beat aTm on the road and his team is 5-1. Let's see how Milton fares next week.

Again if Milton does his part and we win I don't care if he throws for 100 yards and is 8 of 20. Just win. An ugly win is always better than a flashy loss. Supporting cast has a lot to do with how good a qb looks and the stat sheet

I'd love to think we could line up and run the ball down our opponents throats and win a game with Milton passing for 100 yards, but the reality is that we will need him to play at a level that, frankly, we just haven't seen from him to beat teams like aTm, Bama, etc. This offense goes only as well as the QB plays. Hell, it's built around the QB. Unfortunately, our prospects this season will rise and fall with the play of Joe Milton.

It is as u have said.

Football games take some weird bounces sometimes and Bama/A&M game was no different.

It’s a game of preparation and breaks.

Sometimes u gotta put on more steam - Go Vols!

 

[Manchester Vol]

Both of these QBs look better than Milton.

Beck is a butt ugly human.

If we aren’t ready aTM will beat us

Exactly....Heupel's offense goes as the QB goes.

Unfortunately that isn’t what determines if we lose or not

 

[Deebowbear]

Run on Texas A&M.

That’s all we can do sooner or later those short passes to one side or another are going to be picked off good defense will stop that.

I think our D and crowd is going to give the Aggies problems. A&M looked good on D in the first half but Bama was able to make enough plays in the passing game and the Aggies D started giving up some plays. Bama was getting to Johnson a lot. We need to win special teams and contain Smith especially. GBO

Got to play defense like they did against SC every game. Milton has to get the down field pass consistent

 

[Other_Guy]

We have better running backs. We have a better QB and if Cooper is playing we will have a better O Line. So CJH can do whatever he desires.

Better QB?

 

[sjt18]

What’s our game plan?

UT has better backs. UT's scheme is completely different. The game is in Neyland.

 

[rdk4121]

We couldn't run on Florida. A&M much better on defense

That was without both Cooper and Mincey starting. I believe they make a world of difference.
