They are worried about our offense

You hope we can land a good tailback that can help us immediately???

While I always hope for improvements I have to say that CDD did an excellent job of getting our run game going MUCH better than anyone ever dreamed he could do considering how horrid our run game was last season.

We've run the ball VERY well this year and done it against top ranked teams with top ranked Defenses and with the SAME players on the O Line and the SAME RB's that last year everyone screamed they sucked and that our run game would always suck until we recruited some real SEC type O Linemen and RB's, LOL!

I agree with the OP on this one.

If CDD is still here next year and he fixes our Defense this offseason as well as he fixed our running game last offseason then I can easily see our Vols Winning the SEC East Title and giving both Bama and Oregon tough games on their home fields.

I can NOT read that article either so I wish someone could copy and paste it here for everyone to be able to read.

VFL...GBO!!!

Your thanking the wrong guy. Thank Graham the RB coach and Pittman the OL coach. They are the two adds that improved the running game for the previous two dismal years.

When Dools is fired, I hope we keep Graham and Pittman.

Question, how many points do you think our Offense will need to overcome our Defense production? 48-52?

Chavis blew a 4th quarter lead with a loaded defense using the mustang package so he deserved the criticism, however, he is a hell of a lot better than Sal

Chavis has LSU in the top 5 defenses every year. I think we took him for granted at UT. He kept Fulmer his job with his defense for years.

I'd take a Chavis led defense over anyone else.

I am more worried about there offense. We made Troy look like Oregon :cray:

Troy had a top 25 ranked offense before they played UT and they averaged over 30 points a game. Missouri's offense is ranked 100th in the nation and they are banged up across the Offensive line and QB. They may score some points, but they aren't that good.

Florida's offense is ranked around 105th or so.. How did that work out for us? If Missouri has enough speed to get to the edges, if their offensive line can block us. It will look like another late night Pac-12 game...

I have a feeling our D is going to make there O look alot better than they actually are. This is an SEC game so I expect Bray to blow it!

I had originally pulled the link from a mizzou message board. It worked fine at first now I can't get into it either. "brief summary" said their D will have their toughest test with an offense that is atop the stats in the SEC in yards passing, TD's thrown. Said TB is on a record breaking year. Our recievers are premier in the SEC. Said our run game was underated and not to be ignored. said this would be their D lines toughest SEC test. It did talk about our Defense being our weak link and they needed to come out fast and strong and put up points quickly to counter our offense. They are suffering from major injuries. Basically their media is saying they dont think their D can handle our offense.

Thanks! Hopefully our defense won't be kick-in-the-nads painful to watch.

I agree that the running game is greatly improved, but we don't have a top SEC back. We need one that's got power and speed.
