This guys runs better than Tebow. We could never find a guy to keep up with Tebow.

Force Richardson to throw the ball. Take away the scampers and put some hard licks on him.

He's the size of an athletic NFL TE. He runs as fast as one too.

We need our front four to be more dominant most of the game.

NOT waste possessions of offense, and out last them.

Because we or anyone doesn't have one person that could neutralize him single handedly. Spy just makes sure you have one less defenders to cover. Blitz and press. Crush the pocket and gang tackle.

If you spy, you’re handcuffing the defense. Taking someone away from normal responsibility. Defense needs to stay in their gaps, keep outside contain, and not get drawn in towards the handoff. Let the LB and safety do their jobs, otherwise, he’s gonna burn us on the keeper all night long

Definitely keep outside contain and gap responsibility. Utah's end continued to crash all night, which allowed him to have of those big runs.

Who you gonna dedicate to spying him? And how do you compensate for what is essentially playing short handed on defense for the entire game? Pretty easy to just call for a spy, but not so easy in application.

We will need more than a spy, slowing that man down will take a disciplined and intelligent defensive effort & scheme on Tennessee’s part. First and foremost, we will need to lean on our team strength, offense, and lots of it.

We got burned all last season by multi threat qb's. 3rd and long for another team was ugly for us last year. Is that fixed? Richardson, Young and Stennett are cause for concern. Richardson the only one I feel we can beat.

Stoops is very solid coach. I wanted him for us. He has done an incredible job there.

He is a very good coach. The problem with VN being we would not have given him the time KY allowed, we are a little less patient. Some folks would have broken out FAHR the coach after the 2nd loss.

I watched the 1st half UK vs Miami (Ohio) that game M O was playing toe to toe then went ahead. Then this, they kickoff UK Nashville Freshman returns for 100 yards.Miami gets ensuing kickoff and throws a pick 6 like us a few years back. basically sealed the game without much offense. Unless UK improves UF Will steamroll them IMO.

I won my parlay bc of him. Early season I bet the coach more than the team. Like I know Stoops will have prolly the same type of team every season so I can prolly be ok to take them and the points versus whoever they play.

Better stop the Florida run game in all facets, including Richardson taking off from the pocket.

We must force him to throw and make mistakes. He has a rifle, but not very precise, and no touch on his passes. The more he throws, our better chances of forcing him to make critical errors.

If we allow UF to control the LOS, and run at will, it’s likely to be a sad morning on Sept 25th.
