UF was "vanilla" on offense - per UF fans.

Or it could've been the fact that Tebow was sacked or pressured every time he tried to set up in the pocket.
No doubt. I guess the one thing in this game that surprised me most is how we handled both lines of scrimmage. I'd say we won the battles more times than not. That inside handoff stuff is hard to stop, but Florida was supposed too control this aspect of the game. They simply got their tails whooped for the most part.

He looks awful trying to throw the ball without wide open guys. He has that swing pass down, which has accounted for about 90% of his passing stats.

Yes Papa it was that bad a "no call". A dry heave over the FL bench from the left side of the pocket to avoid a sack. I'll add that your other Vol fan also pointed out the FL only punted once. Seemed more than that - but like I said the game was a snore where one team wasn't trying to win and the other was doing just what they had to not to lose. I have a lot of respect for Monty Kiffin and I think he did have some impact but I wouldn't have termed it a "shut down" like an earlier poster did.

He was on the RIGHT side of the formation and directly behind where the tackle had been. Nice work.

This number of punts argument is silly. We had few too because we limited possessions by running the football. IF could have controlled that. Oh wait, no they couldn't ecausehe the defensive front cannot.

Game might have been a snore, but if that vaunted D can't stop the run, and it can't, you'll see more. AL is the best team in the conference right now. If their QB plays well, they'll be representing the SEC in the beauty contest.

Tebow is unbelievable. That being said, it takes him too long to see the field in the downfield passing game. He holds the ball too long in the pocket.

Our D is awsome! Florida threw a tightend screen for a big 1st down in the second quarter, Monte goes in at half and makes adjustments and that play dosen't work again, great coaching.

tebow was the only thing florida had ....damn the more i think of that missed tackle mcCoy made it just pissed me off
If he doesn't fall over our own guy he makes that tackle. It just wasn't meant to be. That play and Jones not knowing where he was in the endzone sealed our fate yesterday.

So if he was "directly behind the tackle" he was in the pocket and that makes it grounding - a little different than your first post saying it wasn't so obvious. I just saw a replay BTW he was behind the LEFT tackle. Nice work. I will confess that it happened on Tenn's last drive and would not have stopped their TD as stated earlier. My error. I was almost asleep by then.

College kids are college kids papa. Some days they are off.

FL -28.5 wins at home by 10.
TX wins against Tech by 10.
USC lost outright in a game they were a huge favorite.
Tenn (@ -14) last week lost to UCLA at home.

FL is not looking great so far and likely loses to LSU on the road. AL looks good too and is always a tough running team and that will make a tough game for UT on the road.

I'm sorry we don't agree on the way y'days game panned out. I still think Kiffin should have gone down the field more Crompton or not....you can't win the game diving into the line with 5 min. left. That's a certainty and interceptions are not. He could always coach the kid - he looked ok to me against LSU three years ago so it's in there somewhere.

You're just clueless, like every other UF fan that's posted here.

Tebow had what appeared to be a grounding no-call in on the first possession of the game.

Not really a FL fan but you could make me one. Do a little reading and have a little civility there dude.

You clearly have no idea what you are talking about when it comes to UT's QB and this must have been the 2nd time you ever saw Crompton play(that LSU game being the first one you saw)

I thought he should've opened it up or put Stephens in...but all CLK was doing was limiting Crompton's ability to screw up the game all by himself, and put the load on the running game. Can't fault him for using the strength of the team and protecting the weakness (Crompton).

Sorry, but you were running the ball 70% the time when you were down by 10 with 5 minutes left. That to me is chicken-shiz coaching. Crompton is, in fact, one of the worst college QBs I've ever watched, but you're not gonna erase a double-digit deficit by running the ball late in the 4th.

The fact is that Kiffin played not to lose big instead of playing to win. Meyer would have LOVED to RUTS on Kiffin, no doubt, but let's give him some credit, he didn't win 2 NCs in 3 years by being a moron, and risking the game attempting to RUTS while the opponent is GIVING you a SEC win is simply moronic.

Yeah. He wasn't trying to win. He was just in a position to make it a 3 point game with 2 minutes left and 2 timeouts. Clearly his plan was to lose. They outlawed the onside kick, right?

BTW, the same thing happened last year against Miami. We would've LOVED to blow Miami out, but they played like chicken-shiz all game(they reached the redzone once the whole game) and kept the game close--it was 9-3 late in the 3rd quarter. So guess what we did? We just took the win and went on to win a NC.

In position? Were you ever within double digits since, well, we went up by double digits?

it's not chicken to play to your strengths (especially when you only have one). It's smart football

they weren't "running out the clock". Good grief the gators should send over some smarter posters

The notion that UF was "vanilla" or "held back" on Offense is just dumb and idiotic for UF fans to think of. They had EVERY motivation to want to embarrass UT and make an example of Kiffin, and they simply couldnt do it. No offense will look good against our D this year. To suggest that CUM and Tebow didnt wanna put up 60+ on us is ridiculous. Our defense just had different plans. I think UF fans would be MUCH better served to turn their attention to, and worry about the UGA and LSU games they still have to get through. That amazing defense of theirs will have to actually defend the forward pass in those games.

Agreed. Tebow just saw what it would be like going against NFL schemes. That game is a great example why he can't make it in the pros as a qb.

It isnt playing like "chicken shiz" to not throw the ball when you KNOW there is about a 95% chance your idiot QB throws a pick that gets housed. Our "chicken shiz" coaches had a good enough gameplan to keep us in a game that we, at least as far as offensively, didnt have any business being in. You UF fans can moan and groan and make all the excuses you want to keep from actually giving respect to a team that came into your house as TWENTY EIGHT POINT UNDERDOGS and earned it...thats fine. The talent gap is rapidly closing, and we no longer have a coach that refuses to adapt to his personnel (like NOT throwing when you have a retard at QB). We will see you in Knoxville next year.....and we will be bringing a QB who can throw the ball. Until then, good luck the rest of the season!! :good!:

E to the X to the C to the U to the S to the E!

How about: Meyer didn't want to be uncivil to Kiffin and decided not to put the pedal down.

How about: Tebow read something in the Book of Mormon about charity to the down trodden.

How about: Meyer has a lot of respect for Monte and didn't want to make him look bad.

How about reality: Our D owned you for the majority of the game. You know the truth. With something other than an anemic passing game, you guys probably don't get the W. That gnawing feeling in your gut is you not wanting to see what happens in Neyland in a year.

Sleep well.
