Tee Martin has some crappy games too, we had a stable of backs and an awesome DL. Looks familiar. Relatively nowhere near the same caliber… but some good ingredients. I thought our passing game left a lot out there but looking back it seems like we only threw to Tillman or Hyatt. Payton and Fant are sleeping giants for the offense IMO. Got to get them the ball.

DL looked really good tonight. Disruptive all night long. I know it's BG, but does anyone believe that they would have been that good under the previous staff? I don't.

They weren’t in 3 years under the old staff… this staff comes in and instantly fixes them

 

[ABINGDON VOL FAN]

We did not have excessive penalties. We had no pre-snap ones that I recall, and the two holds on Carvin were iffy.

Their game plan was to throw it quick to avoid pressure. DL played pretty well.

Let me rephrase. We had penalties which killed 2 or three drives and some penalties and dropped balls stopped our momentum early in the 2nd Qtr. That is not on Milton.

Just glad it was never really in doubt. I have my concerns but it’s nice to win easily.

Hyatt might see a lot less time if he keeps dropping passes. Payton is just as fast and isn’t afraid of contact.

 

[TrippieRedd]

I don’t think we had 471 yards of total offense at any point last season.

They each h as d a couple of targets but need more. Jacob Warren was better than I expected, especially in the run game.

Easy kid, the old woman is way past her bedtime.

My type is blanche anyways

 

[ABINGDON VOL FAN]

I don't know why they won't give him a chance.

I’m partial to HB. Been so since 2018 but Heupel apparently wants a mobile Qb for this offense.

 

[volfaninpa]

I'll take being ticked off about a 30+ point win all the time.

The adjustments and focusing on the running game in the 2nd half was nice to see after the past few years.

 

[Dooby15]

Love the adjustments Tim Banks made and Garner’s influence on stopping the run is evident.
Obviously the pass game is what needs the most work. Combo of WR and QB play. On replay it was easy to see guys were open and then not hitting the open deep throw a few times. All correctable. Hyatt has to catch the ball.

It’ll be interesting to see if Pitt can get pressure with three men. BG couldn’t do it tonight.

 

[Blake25p]

Dominating performance and we should’ve scored way more than we did, not trying to sound negative but how many times have we said this in the last 10 years? Not trying to be negative but I’ve heard this way to many times.

Just the Vandy game

I think you are trying to be negative, sir.

 

[Blake25p]

And if they do rush 3 can we run on them like we did tonight? Like I said we’ll learn a lot next week.

I am also curious to see if Heupel kept it vanilla on purpose. He did a lot of things at UCF that he didn't show here like wheel routes.

 

[InVOLuntary]

Two years ago we were mourning a loss to GA State.

 

[Catbone]

Positives: Evans

Negatives: Everything else

The first quarter was really fun to watch. It felt new and exciting.... Then it just kinda sucked

 

[ACvol3]

what was up with Velus tonight? Is he still hurt or something?

 

[Orangeredblooded]

Expected for Milton and all our guys. This offensive system is about polar opposite of what everyone on the roster has ever played. It’ll take time to feel comfortable with it

I’ll give you a like because you’re actually making sense. Most of the posters in the RF tonight needs some critiquing on their posts, needs some work and I worry about them going forward in the season and maybe they need a backup poster to take over for them. (And I’m being nice).

 

[ACvol3]

Pros: Evans

Cons: Everything else

Lol nah dude..

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

Just the Vandy game

You know who QBd that game?

 

[yourstruly23]

We scored 38, shouldve been 52 or so. We had 471 total yards, 326 rushing. . . no need to pull the fire alarm at all. . .

If we had this same stat line with last years staff, we’d been doing cart wheels in the street… 471 yards of offense with only two or three completions in the second half.. we’re not going to win big this year obviously, but we’re gonna get better

He ran a lot of those at UCF for sure.
