Recruiting Football Talk VIII

[jave36]

I think Progressive’s Dr. Rick campaigns along with GEICO are the best in the insurance ads. I feel like Insurance ads as a whole probably make up 1/4 to 1/3 of all commercials.


TN Farm Bureau is good at tugging the heart strings. State Farm commercials were good in the past when it used to be similar before they got more into the comedy campaigns.

It's crazy how much money they spend on ads. Makes you realize how much money they make off of us for insurance....

Do I believe Tennessee gets into CFP playoffs, most definitely I do.

Do I believe individuals that think the Committee will put the 12 best teams in the field are delusional, most definitely I do.

Any tournament that has individuals making the decision on which teams participate are never going to get the field correct.


Bring back the BCS let the computers pick the 12 teams, I bet it would get the field more correct than those Morans picking the teams now..

I've always said there was nothing wrong with the BCS ranking system, the only problem was that there were only 2 teams picked and not 8. I have no idea why they felt the need to move to a committee when they moved to a 4 team format, the BCS always got the top 4 right.

Interesting that the Hunt family lives in Dallas..

Figured they lived near their NFL Franchise.

Technically they do. Chiefs were originally the Dallas Texans.

I was there to witness it!

Me too!

Drafted on potential. I was always told as a coach potential will get you fired!!

it's wild to me that Richardson and Levis both had all that draft buzz

it was like people weren't even watching them play

Combine heros, gameday zeros.

At least Milton did ok at both.

We're a run first offense.

Against Bama we ran for 214 yards and 5.0 ypc, most of the damage was in the 2nd half though. Bama is the 14th worse rushing defense in the SEC (after playing us).

Kentucky is the 12th worse.

I don't think Kentucky will be able to do what our last 3 opponents have done though. They all were able to stay on the field each getting at least 10 first downs and running 70+ plays. Partly because all 3 of them stuck with trying to run the ball, despite our running defense holding them below their season YPC averages.

Arkansas is 3rd in SEC in yards per carry
Bama is 5th
Florida is 10th
Kentucky is 13th

I think this is a game where our defense should be able to get more 3 & outs and that will allow our offense more chances to get things going in the first half.

Yah. We watched him sit uncomfortable all night because of the draft BUZZ mentioned in the OP.

If we can find our real offensive footing we’ll be set.

Love that we get two games to get it right at home before UGA.

No he isn't but to make you feel better when Freddie gets elected into HOF. His bust will have a Braves Cap on it.

Naw, let him be a dodger. He got out of dodge.

These next two games against Kentucky and Miss St at home are opportunistic.

1. Get things clicking on offense
2. Make the scoreboard look pretty.

 

[tnhunter 10]

Im confused on why Texas would be a given for playoff even with 2 losses. Who would they have beaten? Their best win would be Michigan, if they lose to A&M.

We are what we are right now. Feed Dylan. Feed Brazzel Dazzle. Donte gives you one big clutch catch a game. Protect the football. Reinforce the protection with TEs. Then play defense like a scalded dog.

Hopefully UF and Ole Piss can beat up on the dawgs too
