Recruiting Forum Football Talk IV

[DawgInterloper]

Just thinking -

The only difference in our run defense and Georgia’s run defense, statistically, is Emory Jones.


Although it’s likely that Georgia and Kentucky win this week, I’m pulling for Auburn and LSU.

I've been a little surprised at how effective your D has been so far, particularly against the run but good against the pass too. One stat that does jump out as a difference betweeen UT and UGA so far is that UT is getting a significantly higher percentage of tackles from the secondary than Georgia. Tennessee has about 44% of total tackles, 36% of TFL, and 25% of sacks from DB's (cfbstats). Georgia has gotten 30% of total tackles, 3% of TFL and 0% of sacks from DB's. Those numbers obviously include both run and pass plays, but they suggest that UT is running a more aggressive attacking scheme with its DB's. It's a bit (way) too complicated and time consuming for me to try and analyze actual games for a definitive answer.

As for UGA vs Auburn, I see more upset potential there than most people. Auburn was very close and maybe should've won the Penn State game IMO, and that was on the road in a hostile environment. If they were 5-0 and ranked top 10, the perception of this weekend's game would be different and more accurate. Georgia hasn't played in a loud hostile stadium since @Auburn 2019, and it was a struggle as it often is at JH stadium. Stetson Bennett has never faced a road game like this, most of our OL haven't and maybe not JT Daniels either, if he can even play. Not a comfortable game for Georgia.

I discredited him some when he said Alvin Kamara sold weed at UT. Even if true, it was strange for someone in a position that he claimed to be in to come to a message board and say. At that point, I kind of assumed he was someone important's son or a troll.

AV talked waaaaay too much. Had terrible tact like the aforementioned.

Remember when a bunch of posters thought Gus should be the hire. UCF is 2-2 and just lost to 0-3 Navy lol

UCF could easily end up 6-6 this year. They still have to play ECU, Cincinnati, Memphis, SMU, and Tulane.

Or he was just a college student with friends who played. I did blow with Deon Cain at Clemson once. It’s not hard to find dirt on football players if you’re in their circles. Most college students just had the courtesy to not air it out.

All I gathered from that is you admitting UT is better than UG. I concur. Good day sir.

 

[Catbone]

We got no pass rush

Heupel's fault for being a bum recruiter and leaving the cupboard bare

 

[chargervol]

pretty sure Coke Zero snorters wear purple

I can neither confirm or deny.

 

[Paper_Towel]

Also I’m gonna go ahead and say it

Those helmets, white tops, and black pants for an away game every once in a blue moon would look great.

The helmet with the old black outline on the stormtroopers would be perfection.

I lived in college park next to some UT basketball players (won't name them) and we smoked out all the time - literally their place was a drug house - buying, selling, trading, you name it. The things you would see - can't unsee it now.

 

[johnfnkelly]

AP also said we wouldn’t wear black til we got the black helmets in. so just maybe we do pull out the greys next week

I thought they sold off most of the helmets about a year ago.

Tyler Bray, Rivera, D Moore and a few others had a big house party at my uncle's after the UNC bowl game I was at. Good times

I wish I went to Tennessee. One of my bigger regrets. I instead went to USC (Upstate) and partied in Clemson or Columbia every weekend. Kinda sucked. But I have fun stories for sure

Cool story, bro.

 

[Catbone]

Cool story, bro.

Tyler was stuffing my cousin like a Thanksgiving turkey that night. I remember Tyler saying he didn't like Dooley

Sheeeeeeeesh.

Best decision of my life - I went to high school in Florida and was destined for UF, Miami or FSU and then my Dad took me on a drive to UT and we drove past the stadium next to the river and I was sold!!! Applied. Got in! And bleed orange.

well, now we know why you got invited.

Ha, you're wrong! I never "admit" anything about football because that would require me to "know" something to admit.

 

[WilcoVolsFan]

The all black jerseys with a white helmet looks stupid. I hope they fix that.

Bad takes revisited.

Did he get exposed as a fraud. Why we talking about him?

Your defense will win you the game. Let's be honest. You guys do not have a potent offense, but your defense is pretty incredible.

Dunno. Think charger started it, haha.

Yep filmed the whole thing

Bad takes revisited.

Thank you for your bravery. On a spectrum of white helmet to black helmet, the white helmets with black accents are better than white helmets but not as good as black helmets, but I think we all learned that there can be an agreeable middle ground.
