4pm till 6pm. Or thereabouts; 'pending on how many ads we sell, and we are behind from the Blizzard last week, so that might shorten things just a tad. b-st.

A de facto home-field edge for UT? That might work. I'll consider it. thx! b-st.

I have one very good one that favors us/VT. As such ... I am fishing for one that favors you gentlemen and UT to paint a balanced picture. I am not looking for anything along the lines of traditional offensive via-a-vis defensive match-ups; not even something from Special Teams. What's a...

Looks like we will start either Hosley or Hill as Virgil's replacement. You guys should hope that it is Hill; that's how I'll put it. out- b-st.

Graves at Dt has 3-4 blocked kicks on his career. Very good at such; and his bad ankle should be much improved with 4+ weeks off. Him; and we might just have the best KO-Return guy in the nation in one D.Roberts. The other will be Bowl Prep: Frank has been to 17 straight bowls. He has gone...

Here is how I see it unfolding: Both offenses have the advantage. However the UT offense enjoys the bigger vis-a-vis edge. Never thought I'd type that in a Bowl game with 4+ weeks of film-study with the surnames of: Foster and Poppa-Kiffin involved. That said; VT special-teams could easily...

Blogsburg, VA: Home of the Writing Gobblers Blog Archive Tennessee Offense intensive film-study 1o2: Tell me what I go right or incorrect. Or what you agree and disagree with X's and O's match-up wise. Happy Holidays volnation.com! TIA- b-st.

Yes, that is how Boston College and Kansas in the Orange Bowl both wrecked out backfields. Though the book on TT has been to play contain with De's. Use his height against him by keeping him inside the pocket and off the edge where he can kill you with the run or pass. late- b-st.

Ah-ha. Yup; that would be problematic for anyone. Thank you on that. b-st.

Yup. Good call. I am (re)watching Vandy and KU today and was seeing a one-sided approach to passing or as you adroitly state, a single "quadrant" to read. Interesting that that had to be done for a senior level Qb? A underclass and I can get that. Is this because Crompton is not all that...

Thank you. Cody Grimm should be keen for that. Though Johnson/Gibby and Rivers are not so precocious in pass-coverage as rookie 1st-year players. If Cody must help our replacement for Virg', that will expose the other 2 Lb's all the more. Not to mention hurting our run plugging chances vs...

Ha-ha. No Sir. I'm revising this section of my UT offensive preview to account for the academic ineligibility of Virg'. 1. UT clearly mixed it up where they threw the ball. Te's got more looks than the average D-1 offense. Hardesty got a number of throws as well (5th most in point of...
