Heup has said it best, we are really close. Watch the Florida game as bad as it pains you to do so. The mistakes were self inflicted penalties, its fixable. Watching the Florida game, we are closer to that 2022 offense than many think IMOHopefully this Saturday.
Let's be positive. Stop all the negativity and beat Alabama.
100,000 cocktailed up Vol fans will lift them up to victory! OK maybe 90K w/ a few Bama fans in there...just hope the $600 tix on Stubhub didn't go to many Bama fans.Heup has said it best, we are really close.

The WRs also have to get separation. Haven't had a ton of it the past couple weeks. Granted Nico missed some easy ones against Florida but this is important in a game like this. Got to make the big plays when the opportunity presents itselfIt all starts with the OL. Give Nico time and open holes for Sampson and it should click.
My GUESS is that we will reduce the time Nico holds the ball in the pocket with quicker throws and maybe to guys with LESS separation. As well as more roll outs away from weakest matchup along the line. Quicker to pull the run trigger and take the check downs due to faster progression reads.
Occasionally taking deeper drops for the long ball to keep them honest. This COULD lead to more shorter routes to help speed up our tempo game.
Yes. It’s the fans that cause the team to lose. Brilliant take .
We've not been running the UT offense. We're slowing things down and being conservative to protect our qb and relying on our running game/defense. Heupel isn't running his offense. That was supposed to allow a team with lesser talent to run with the big boys. Teams have adjusted to Heupel's offense. Is he the offensive guru everyone thinks or isn't he? If I'm going to lose, I'm going down swinging. I'm running my QB and my offense at break neck speed and living with the consequences. Nico either learns from his mistakes and improves or he doesn't. Better to find out now than go down the Gitmo/Milton path again. Doing the same things and expecting different results next year....insanity.Hopefully this Saturday.
