I have seen on other forums that UO may have watched film of the game up until the delay. There is no "source" for this, just rumblings on the web..

Has anyone heard this or know anything?

MOD's please delelte if this has been brought up, in the wrong forum or just flat out wrong. :p

Thanks :hi:

Oh and...blow me up if you want, I really don't care. :)

It was really unfortunate that UO had 70 minutes to figure why they were getting the chit beat out of them early. In most games, you gotta figure that out during play time, and the 20 minutes you have at the half...not a 70 minute break in the first half!!
Don't know if you would have changed the overall outcome as to who won, but it definately helped the Ducks change their plan!!

I think you're definitely right...I was just curious if anyone knew the rule, etc. They could have watched little house on the prairie and the end result would've probably been the same..

+1. We should have been as well. Hell the delay was over an hour. That explains why O came out and shut us down after the delay. That and the final minutes of play before half time hurt us real bad.

if their coaches needed to watch film to figure out how to stop us on O then they aren't very bright

You guys were still gashing us on the run, they didn't figure it out immediately but when they did....they did.
I think the end of the half was also partly due to our team, you could see the whole game slowly turn. The defense bent but never broke.

technically there was no back footage of this team with this staff so I wouldn't go that far.....not even close imo. The unknowns in the beginning contributed to your early success imo. Our defense wasn't aggressive like they would have been against a known opponent at first, they waited and reacted then adjusted. Kelly or his staff aren't viewed as idiots. Now if this had been LSU or the Dallas Cowboys.....I could agree:)

unknowns? Almost everyone in Neyland on Sat night knew how to stop UT's offense but it took Kelly 2 qtrs to figure it out. I didn't put them in Les Miles land but they can almost see it from their house

+1. Kelly even said in his presser that there were alot of unknowns and they wouldnt have any film on this staff inparticular. I think it was a pretty smart move since they didnt get a chance to see film of this staff.

Actually it took Aliotti almost two quarters to slow it down. The guys weren't lining up right, once they did the run game was non-existent. Partly due to the passing game not keeping us honest. Considering I know my team better than you do I am inclined to disagree. I also have one vol fan agree with me and I will get more imo. Watch the game again.....my defense is super aggressive and blitz from everywhere, you didn't see that early on. They wanted to see what you were going to throw at us. They had an idea but when you don't see it all the time, you will give up yards. They did but the defense still never gave up any many points. Compare the first half to the second half (or just the 3rd quarter).......the first half was the defense playing chess against your offense while the Offense got their mojo going. Once the offense got it going we started sending them more and took some chances.

We were not tricking them with our scheme. Early on, we were simply executing our blocks. We had a helmet on every man and just blocked it real well. Kelley didn't have to figure anything out. He just had to get his players to react and get off of our blocks.

I remeber thinking to myself that at any time in the second half, we were gonna run a few counter plays and slow the back side pursuit down a bit. Our playside blocking remained fine, but their team speed coming from the backside killed us. The reverse with Da'Rick worked nicely because of their over pursuit. Maybe we ran some misdirection and I just missed it.

Clay Travis said on the 3 hr lunch that Oregon watched film during the rain delay... I don't know his source however

Tennessee had the ball twice, and Oregon hadn't even been on the field on offense. there was nearly nine minutes to go in the first quarter. Oregon would have made the adjustments not matter.

Vols had no passing threat or Oregon would have had a much harder time controlling the line of scrimmage. The Ducks have a very good, fast defense and when they can put that many guys close to the LOS and not worry about passing lanes...they are even better. Had the Vols burned them with just a few passes they probably would have been able to compete a little deeper into the game by making them play 11 on 10 instead of 7 or 8 on 1 ...and (IMO) lose by a lot less. No pass, no go.

A couple of points from a Duck, one the the intensity of the crowd and youthful enthusiasm of the Vols stepped up, but it was going to take 4 quarters of play to win this game, and even going in I figured a slow start. I expected the players to be a bit star struck but the surroundings, and figured they would have to weather the storm of Neyland first (not anticipating a real weather storm). My take, youth and lack of depth did the Vol's in. Those will be corrected if Dooley is given time to establish his program. Hope you give him that chance.

Bairs postgame comments about the game suggested the defense hit the field anxious and nervous by the enormity of Neyland which ended up in missed assignments and poor positional play.

The delay if anything it gave the Ducks a chance to regroup and refocus and settle down. Once they started playing their game, (which really started shortly into the second quarter) you could sense the tide turning.

Bigger question I have for those of you who attended, did it impact the crowds attitude having to wait the storm out?

I don't think so..... Stadium filled back up pretty quick and our section was still loud....

I wasn't too surprised by the slow start, I thought we made a mistake in not flying in earlier and shaking off the cobwebs from a long flight/acclimation to the weather etc. Vols have talent even if the depth isn't there and they absolutely dominated the first 15 minutes. If they had gotten TD's instead of FG's the crowd would have stayed in it longer and this might have been the closer game most of us expected.

Good luck the rest of the season Vol fans, seems like you have a pretty decent foundation of talent, just gotta add some depth.

The story being told in our local press is that Oregon was not aligning properly to your unbalanced looks, and that in spite of practicing for it all week long the D players were getting confused and not identifying your sets properly. Take that fwiw.

That sounds like coach talk there buddy. We ran a heavy set with a tight end on the same side as twins and slid the twin reciever in like a wing. That is a basic high school formation. Nothing is hard about that. Several of the runs were to the weak side. If you had not adjusted to the strong side properly like had been mentioned, you should have blown those plays up for sure. Your team was in the right places all night. We were just blocking them early and not later in the game. Our two promary formations were the heavy set I just described plus single back with two tights and a split out to each side. you can't get much more balanced than that! :thumbsup:
