Just not seeing it ....
I am a die hard Vol - graduated in 97. There is a strong part of me that wonders why people on this board are not having the same major concerns that I have:
- No answer for running the ball in short yardage situations
- The absence of a kicking game
- A Defense that has shown considerable holes in both games
- Poor open field tackling
- Def Linemen getting way out of their lanes allowing broken plays to be huge gains for the opposing team
I see a scenario where the fast paced offense - goes 3 and out within a minute repeatedly. Whereby Florida methodically moves the ball down the field.
The NC State game was a shocker to me in the sense that they completely imploded - giving us an edge to close out the game, however i feel like we kept trying to get them back in the game.
GA State played us tight for quite some time ... GA State!!! They should have been out-matched from the minute the whistle blew.
Sorry folks ... just not seeing it.
I think this is a super-important game for the program - don't win it and it hurts for years to come. Win it - and we are set for a great season.
