Oddly it reminded me a little of those Fulmer speeches too.If you look at some of Fulmer old pre-game speeches, sounds very similar. Old school...win the trenches, tough D...if we run the ball like I think we will in 2020, glory days aren't too far away! At minimum, we've moved away from being considered an automatic W, when teams look at their schedules and see Vols.
I believe that too. Imposing your will on another man breaks their spirit over time. This creates doubt in the opponents mind and they suffer mentally which leads to failure of execution.I think Fulmer and CJP both talked about being the most physical team on the field . When you are, I believe that helps overcome something you are lacking in or mistakes you might have made .
