@Volquest_Paul: Jones said you'll see more formations with two and even three tight ends and a fullback. Offense is growing week to week.

If I'm a WKU fan, I'm worried about how my slow as molasses, two-star defense is going to handle multiple formations, an NFL offensive line, and a plethora of speedy athletes all operating at break kneck speed for four quarters in the most hostile venue in college football. Bobby Petrino ain't gonna be able to suit up to help...

Question for the board: Would you rather announce you're making those shifts in formation to give the DC something else to prepare for? Or spring it on the other team unannounced and catch them flat-footed? I'll hang up and listen.

Either way has benefits. By announcing it, makes the other have to prepare for something they have no idea what it will look like. Odds are wont be ready by this week. Just give em more to think over

I think it's more about forcing them to prepare for it all and less about really using it.


It certainly doesn't make sense for maggitt to start playing offense. I hope that isn't the case

And Butch on Jacques Smith's thumb: "He's having the pins out tomorrow, so there's a possibility he may be able to play Saturday." #Vols

i think we wont use these formations against WKU. i bet we use them against Oregon and try to out power them since they clearly have the speed

"Devrin Young left practice early with an apparent left wrist injury from a fall on the practice field. Jones said Young is to be further evaluated."

That's why I think it's all just for show. Forces wky to prepare for it.


I will be pissed if he plays offense this weekend

I'm 100% sure he won't. I guess I'm just paranoid more than anything. Our luck with injuries has been pretty bad the past couple years.

They say they want WRs to be physical in our run game. I guess Maggitt sealing off the edge would fit that bill. Someone might die....
