That will be very interesting. Also interesting will be what you have to say if we don't beat Florida. Save this thread as well...

UT would have to hang at least 40 on Florida and a different defense would show up

save all the posts you want, but unless our defense gets better and we decide to throw the ball downfield, we'll get blown out in the swamp.

Teams get better from week to week.

We got to win the war in the trenches our offense will hold its own. The defense has got alot to prove

Found this on a Gator site. Not gonna help me sleep at all.

"OK, here's how you defend against Florida's offense. Let's say Florida sends Caldwell deep on one side and Cooper deep on the other. You don't want the homerun ball because Tebow has just shown he can throw the long ball accurately. Put your fastest defenders on each of them. Maybe let the safeties double up on them to cover them or someone else coming in the area. That makes four defenders. Then, if Ingram goes out over the middle, you put a linebacker who can keep up with him, so someone fast. Five defenders. Murphy goes out somewhere, and you put someone fast on him because he's one of the fastest players on Florida's team. Six defenders Oh, and don't forget Percy Harvin, because he makes plays that can turn a game around (or put them away), so you better put someone fast on him. Doubleteam him, so that makes eight defenders, all of them fast. Once all of these guys have been covered, someone has to cover Tebow, because he's fast for a quarterback and at 230 pounds, you've got to have someone who can bring him down. Maybe another fast linebacker who shadows him. Nine defenders. All of them fast. Then, put a strong rush on against Florida's veteran line with the two defenders you have left so Tebow doesn't have time to find an open receiver or make a big run. Shoot, Florida could send everyone long and let Tebow run behind them. Of course, you can gamble a bit and leave Caldwell, Riley, or Harvin in single coverage so you have more to rush the ball and hope Tebow doesnt' spot someone in the open before you can get to him. So, the team who has nine fast players on defense and two defensive linemen who can beat out five offensive linemen has the advantage. (I predict some teams will be in a zone defense and instruct their players to just try to tackle someone coming by with the ball.) As the season goes along, we'll be working on how to run this offense fast. It's really simple, isn't it?"

It doesn't make any difference. These guys will have Big Daddy coaching them the next 15 years anyway, win-lose-or draw. I feel for them. They will get their 6 to 8 wins. I will say this about Big Daddy. He knows a gravy train when he sees one.

If you think our D is bad Fla. replaced 9 starters on their D. I would think we would have an advantage, I look for that game to be a real high scoring contest.

For many years I have seen pop warner football players wrap up and tackle. Reading Chavis' article regarding tackling (or lack of it), he has a big job ahead of him. I have read many good points and some should of, could of and would of's. After watching Florida and Georgia win their games with ease I agree that we are going to have to step up in all areas to have a chance. Just my opinion of course. Go Vols!

Kentucky returns more starters on their D, too. Are they going to be better than Florida's newbies?
