Another thing to add to your excellent post. In 3 of the 4 games we have played, we completely shut down the offense in the fourth quarter. Two of them were shut down in the second half. Nico has only had to play in the first half; and against Oklahoma the entire game was at a different pace due to field and personnel issues.
You sir must be new to the internet. But on a more serious note...real friends, compatriots, comrades tell each other the truth. When people all become yes men we have the WNBA where you cant tell your teammate they should maybe not rock the 6 inch press on nails in a game because that would be hating.
Either way its looked good. Our defense has looked way worse against worse offenses in the past. I personally think the hate piled on the secondary was a bit much but for the past 10 or so years opposing QB's tended to have their best passing games against us. I think part of it was secondary but part was other things like we've had fairly stout run defense and our defensive depth couldn't keep up with the number of snaps they had to play. We have enough depth to rotate most positions on defense now. I don't think its as much about the starters talent level improving as it is the dropoff on 2nd and 3rd is less steep.
When I was a young kid, name calling was done in a sandbox amongst children because we didn't know how to articulate our thoughts and respect other peoples opinions.
It's the internet thats their opinion and they are free to express it and I'm free to clap back. Im not gonna whine about it. I know who I am and can stand up for myself. Everyone comes from different backgrounds so we deal with adversity differently. I would call the we are all Vols comeback as weak participation trophy crap. Some homeschool-ish. As the kids say these days weird.
as an aside I think most of this board would agree with the statement that our secondary hasn't really been tested. I think most would also agree this wont be the game they do get tested. Arkansas has the least threatening QB from a passing perspective we have seen all year. The argument was the number you posted were very misleading. Arkansas was not the most prolific passing attack compared to other teams (per game) we have faced, it was UTC by a large margin. Also all those other teams played against us... Arkansas hasn't played a strong passing defense.
he has played like 2 games. some of the SEC are up to 5. we have also been playing with a lead, and not chasing like Auburn has.
There was nothing wrong with the stats and my mane is not primo. Therein lies the base problem. You looked at the actual stats in context you would have known what we pointed out. The fact is was a bye week would be a clue. Just like if you actually looked at the post you quoted there is clearly no R in my name.
A guy in a different thread who claimed to be a friend of his, said John was a good journalist and not bias against TN.Florida has dominated Tennessee football despite hiring some of the worst coaches
Will Muschamp, Jim McElwain, Dan Mullen continued the Gators success against UT, even though they failed to keep their job.www.knoxnews.com
You would think he could have sand bagged this article until next week, but noooooo.
