just 3 sacks in 3 games

[kamoshika]

along with 5 QB pressures against middleweight competition. Have to admit that I'm disappointed so far with our mostly ineffective pass rush, one I'd hoped might set the school record for sacks. Maybe we'll crank it up in conference play?

Meanwhile, Dobbs has been sacked 7 times.

D line looked good in the second half. It was one of the few bright spots.

But Shoop was a massive upgrade

Mark Richt has lost control of our pass rush.

Overal defense has been good, even with players droppinglike flies. The pass rush has been a huge disappointment... I know they've played some interesting and different offenses but today was very sad.

I'm more worried about the 12 sacks and -10 rushing yards this OL will give up next week.

Thanks! I just spit my drink on the screen!

I'm convinced that Shoop was brought in by the AD and not Butch. I think Butch handcuffs him because he isn't part of his "group". Shoop was an all star at Vandy and Penn State over about 7 years. If he isn't doing well here then it isn't him, it's Butch

0 sacks on the season by Barnett.

All 3 sacks came last week, so we had 0 against App and 0 against Ohio

Evidence? Didn't think so...

We've faced three mobile quarterbacks. Barnett put the guy on his back about 4 times today and was disruptive all day. Kongbo and Vereen hit him a couple times as well. Hopefully we can get a few on an immobile QB and a shaky line next week.

Go Vols!

Sure thought he was gonna be. Right now, as you sarcastically point out, he isn't.

 

[Zues1]

Did we run the no huddle hurry up defense today.

 

[Frozevol]

I'm glad someone brought this up. Our defense has been much better than the O, but hat isn't saying much. Appy, VaTech, O, all moved the ball against us, and none of those teams are very good. But neither are we. But we are just a bit better than them.

 

[Gary10ec1]

Bet we have more than three next week. Defense line will be turned loose. Just hope the LBs can hold up.

Oh yea, I have their private emails right here talking about it. Sorry I can't show them to you, since they are private and what not

 

[Ten_Titans]

Pressure was there today. Their QB was just catching and chucking with minimal effectiveness.

No sacks is kind of a misleading stat for this game.
