Guess who led the nation in 4th down conversion defense last year.....
Actually, you don't need to guess, it was Penn St. with opponents converting 4th downs on 15% of attempts. Just for comparative purposes - Tennessee allowed 4th down conversions on 75% of attempts last year. Only Eastern Michigan, Army, and Syracuse were worse at defending 4th down. ( Somehow Syracuse gave up 100% of attempts 13/13 LOL )
I can see why - going against Temple, Buffalo, San Diego ST, Army, Maryland and IL must have been tough to gameplan against.
Lets see how he does in the big boy league. He'll revert back to his vandy days of giving up 30 pts a game. The good news for UT fans is they are used to a 7-5 record.

To what, the Vandy comment? We lost to Vandy that year as well as 7 other teams (as did UT) . The only team we were good enough to beat were the bottom feeders - UK & UT.
It doesn't mean Vandy was good, we were that bad.
No, I was actually referring to your comment about Shoop giving up 30 points a game when in the SEC. He actually averaged 18.7 points allowed per game in 2012 (good for 15th nationally) mind you that was with Vandy's recruits - whose classes ranked the following leading up to that year.
2008 - 83
2009 - 69
2010 - 52
2011 - 51
One would reasonably deduce that he will accomplish much better results working with recruiting classes that have ranged between 5 and 15 in rank... But hey UF education, I understand.
Roasted.

Actually, I graduated college in Tennessee.
So, roasted because he has a higher recruiting ranking of players, that makes the defense better? Let's ignore the fact that the Vandy D was together for more than a fall camp when they played that well. But, that's ok, you guys keep dreamin. New OC. New DC. Keep thinking that these guys will pick up the schemes.
Gators won 11, but gettin 12 might not happin. Vols is good this years even without Calloway.Not sure what you're referring to since many sports media members have picked UT to win the east. You're butt hurt because the gators aren't in the conversation this year? Go win 10 games and prove everyone wrong.
