Who says Heupel doesn't adjust?

How so? No injuries. More experience. It was a luxury to take advantage of and to bank for the future. At one point did we rush 8 or 7 which was pretty interesting. Do you think that will happen again next week.

I need to go back and watch the entire 2nd half to confirm my gut. Tackling was Terrible. No scoring.

This against a 3 - 8 terrible FL.

Who says Heupel doesn't adjust?​

Need to break the word "adjust" down a bit.

Coach Heupel and staff were well "prepared" for Saturdays squeamish in the swamp. I don't think that is "adjusting", as they had a week to research, study and devise a game plan (that actually worked!!)

When I think of adjust, I think of adjusting during the game. Say for example, Gators come out with man to man coverage and we were calling plays based upon a 5/3 defense. If the coach recognized the new D, then he adjusts his game plan to exploit man to man coverage.

Been a UT fan since I was a kid in the 60s in NJ, and I do not think that CJH adjusts very well during a game. My armchair QB position says he and his staff stick to the game plan called before the game and try to push a square peg in a round hole.

The gameplan though on Saturday night was IMO, the best of the year by far. Runs and short passes all friggin' day long and right into the End Zone.

Go Vols

Perfectly coached game. Florida thought that if they just prevent the long passes, they had a chance, wrong. We ran the ball along with short passes. They kept thinking, along with the announcers, that any moment we were going go deep. Josh did not try to run the hurry up offense they were expecting. In a hostile loud environment we huddled up a lot, so everyone was on the same page. Lagway got one long run and they adjusted and that did not happen again. Tennessee had a well thought out plan and was very patient with it.

It definitely was a perfectly called game. Can he do it back to back games?
