One key is us the fans. Helps a lot when a team has to get 5 extra yards occassionally and use up time outs they will need later because of crowd noise. Let's leave Neyland knowing that we gave our best as fans.

We need to rush for around 200 yards.

Make plays in the passing game.We dropped to many tds and long gains last season.

Play better perimeter defense. Last season our lack of speed showed on outside runs. We were terrible at OLb, and our safeties never showed up to make plays in the ally. We need our safeties making plays in the running game for 3 yards or less.

And we have to keep the qb in the pocket. When a qb gets out of the pocket it puts too much pressure on the coverage and forces them to cover longer.

Nah, about 312 yards rushing would be about right.:pepper:

All the media, and the fans from USU makes me wonder for a nano second if I need a reality check regarding this game.

This has been the longest wait. We have heard and read from a small contingent of USU fans of how they are going to come to Neyland and catch us napping in the first game of the season and beat us on our home field with 2 to 3 players.

How they have tradition of competing with Good Teams but we have none. How their team last year was good but this one is better despite their losses. How a 100000+ fans will sit in idle mode and watch their team destroy us. How we are the 4th or 5th best team on their schedule. The list goes on and on.

Surprisingly enough some of the ones that are roaming around in Knoxville seem to think they will not win but had to make the trip for the visit to UT.

True. Our tradition is beating good teams.

Today, we will see a new beginning. I am so sure our talent beats their talent.

Win the match ups on the line and our talent will take over. Yes, I drink orange colored kool aid.

Defense:
Contain Chuckie Keeton on the edge. He is a mobile QB that will run given an opportunity.

Good pass rush. Tennessee had a horrible pass rush last year which put our defensive backs in a bad situation. A consistent pass rush will lead to bad throws and INTs

Offense:
Oline Oline Oline. If they can get a push up front, Tennessee can control the clock and game with a solid running attack. Also, Worley is adequate enough to find the open reciever given enough time.

Prediction:
TN:34
USU: 20


UT Key: Beat the ever loving **** out of them.

The key never changes, it is the same today as it was in the time of our forefathers:
