Jones shows a gutsy side in UT's overtime loss to Georgia

[governmentmule]

For most of his short tenure at Tennessee, coach Butch Jones has been a by-the-book, play-the-percentage type of coach.

Butch gets it!

First half not so much, especially with the clock management.

second half, best we have seen in the last few years.

Good to see the ability to make half time adjustment like that.

The play calling was gutsy, but I have to say I feel like they were relatively high percentage because the team started playing w real confidence. Loved it.

The 4th down calls were but don't remember in ot what plays that were outside the norm. The hand off to pig is a basic spread play. Fla killed us for years with the same call starting with Harvin.

The clock management was to make sure UGA didn't go up 24-3 if we didn't get a first down. It looks like it was the right call

Loved when the entire offensive line ran over to CBJ to tell him to go for it on the first fourth down conversion. Though I'm sure there would be several people on here that would be slamming coach if they went for it and didn't convert when going for it deep in their own territory

With improved QB and WR play comes a more dynamic set of plays. When the boys grow up a little more our O might be pretty decent.

I'm just glad it worked. We were inside our own 30 yard line and that might have sealed the game. Gutsy for sure. If Neal didn't dive forward, we would have seen a very different ending.
