Recruiting Football Talk VIII

Guga is awesome.

There are a couple of good guys on YT. Max the meat guy is another good follow.

Love any of the folks that push the boundaries and try different things. The "this is the proper way to cook X cut of beef every single time" bores the hell out of me.

Reddit is another good resource, where people have scientifically tested various ideas throughtout its entire range (such as dry brining for 10m, 30m, 2h, 1 day, 2 days, etc).
I like the one where guga left the steak in the fridge and forgot about it for 5yrs, then cooked it and ate it.

We didn’t make the T sign. Our guy pointed at the ball, and they reviewed it to say it was a fair catch signal. Even worse.
And video shows conclusively that not a single Bama player paid any attention at all to Telander’s pointing. Worked out in advance with the Birmingham crew.

UT - 35
Miami - 7

All the talk leading up to the game was if Miami would be voted National Champion if #1 Penn State lost in the Orange Bowl to #3 Oklahoma (which they did). They really didn't think the Vols had much of a chance against Miami

The Game: Miami scored first using a fake punt to set up a TD pass to future Hall of Famer Michael Irvin and everyone thought that was the beginning of the end for the Big Orange.

However, that was all Miami would score as the Vols brought the pressure of nine-man blitzes and never allowed Vinny to get into the game by sacking him seven times and picking him off three times. The Vols took advantage of those turnovers and good field position to roll over Miami 35-7.

The Big Play: 7:21 in the 3rd Quarter Tennessee RB Jeff Powell blasted through the line and ran 60 yards for a TD that put the Vols up 28-7 and was pretty much the nail in the coffin.

MVP: The UT Defense. They were just all over Testaverde the whole game, giving him nowhere to run or hide. They had a great defensive stand in the 1st Quarter as Miami started on their 13. After 11 plays, Miami ended back at their 13 yard line.

You ask many fans and it is one of their favorite games of all time and people were celebrating all though Tennessee. Fans were packed at the airport for the homecoming and honking horns at the bus as they drove back to the dorms.

I really feel bad for all the volnation fans who didn’t get to watch this live. It was magical and unbelievable at the same time, not that we won but how. It was a complete and utter destruction of a supposedly far better team. 🧡🍊

Reddit and Aaron Franklin was like 90% of my BBQ education.
