Quick thoughts on UTEP and Gators.

1- every bluechip HS qb should lick their chops at a major SEC program not having a qb.

2- This Oline can be good, and, yet again. They werent.

3- We do well running with a lead blocker. We just arent effective enough in gun.

4- Defenses are eating us up with blitzes. This Oline, needs to practice.

5- Not sure if Helton just isnt sure. But, our offense doesn't play with an identity. Defense is coming, put us in a position to make plays. We're having success running, smdh?

6- WR's need to make more plays.

7- This defense is pretty good, will be great with more faster guys.

8- Cautiously optimistic against the Gators.

Good points, but I also think the tackling is still awful. I'm trying to stay positive, but I really hoped we'd see more of Pruitt's stamp on this team by the time we got to the Florida game. I don't feel like I've seen it yet. I wish I could say I was more confident that we'll win a few more games. Guess we'll have to wait for some kind of magical transformation.

Hey, it could happen.

I watched some of the negative plays in slow motion and what I saw were missed assignments. Everybody, including Trey, did not see guys coming free right in front of them. I don't think the ability is the biggest problem. They just don't know who to block. That should not be happening at this point in the season.

I did not think we would really know what kind of team TENN would be until they played UF. After today I’m Not so sure I need to wait. I really can’t tell if the offense is good or bad. They seem to be able to pass at will with high accuracy and run with a high ypc average, but they can’t put it together. I am not sure if play calling is just erratic or the coaches are using the games to work on weaknesses and not worried about the score. (This is based on the past two games). I know the penalties and TOs held the score down but why only 30% passing plays? I think the Vols may be a lot closer to the UTEP end of the spectrum than they are the UF end. Maybe next year before I change my screen name.

I agree we have a shot against FL. I think the D can keep us in the game. Can we score enough to win?? I don’t know.
