Listened to the Rocky Top Talk podcast. They had a Ohio Bobcat beat writer talking about the matchup. Few things I gathered:

- Return entire front 7 that is very good.
- Rush D was consistently good last year.
- Secondary is all new and an extreme liability if QB is given three or four seconds
- QB is a threat to run every play
- Best skill guy on offense is Papi White.
 
Herss how I would run our offense....

AK and Hurd in the backfield. EVERY. DANG. PLAY.

Preston and Josh out wide. Peanuts will be had.

Ethan Wolf split end or tight on the line.

(screw the slot receiver, Ethan is better than anyone else between the hash marks). He needs more passes.

Motion Josh every play to see if he's man coverage. If so, option to pass deep if the box is stacked. Six. Eat hot dogs. High five buddy.

Run a pass run read option to Hurd.

If pass, have AK out in the flat opposite of Malone. If pocket breaks down Dobbs goes to Kamara's side to see if he has a pass, if not Dobbs runs like a deer baby okay.

Savage. I know you guys have been wondering what I would do. So there you have it. Don't spill the beans to Frank Solich.

Has anyone noticed that both sports clips on the Sling TV commercial are Tennessee highlights? I thought they somehow targeted me on my TV, but here in Seattle on my cousin's it's the same thing.

After the game, I came away with the impression that the OL play was a problem. It seems I wasn't alone. However, I didn't want to pass judgement without first looking at them again. So I looked at only the left side focusing on Richmond and Robertson. It was not pretty, actually downright ugly. On running plays, Richmond just seemed to play pittypat against the DE. It wasn't until near the end of the 2nd quarter did I see him "hit" the DL he was blocking. Maybe I'm wrong, but I thought that you wanted your blocker to hit and drive the person you are blocking. That just wasn't happening. In the pass blocking situations, he would make initial contact with the DE and let the DE just run around him untouched. He was soundly beaten on just about every passing down. In the first quarter, he was bull-rushed, stumbled backwards, and was pancaked. It was embarrassing to watch. Sadly, Richmond seemed to be just going through the motions. With Robertson, it was virtually the same. The DT would put a move on him and go around him like his feet were in concrete. Also he failed on several stunts to pick up the DE cutting around the DT. In the 3rd quarter, Kendall when playing LT was at least firing off the ball and going after his man. To Richmond's credit, he seemed to play with a little more fire when he came back in after being benched. Now I realize that Richmond is playing in only his 2nd game at the college level; but as a second year player, we should be seeing a higher level of performance. He desperately needs to add a bunch of nasty to his game. Maybe he needs to go repeatedly in the Circle of Life until he gets really mean and ugly. He needs to get the message and fast.

Just seeing and simply addressing the first few lines, this but in zone and reach blocking, driving into the man opposite isn't necessarily what is taught in that scheme

Wow
 
That's not what I said. The Vols use 247 Sports composite to rank their recruits. Not individual sites like Scout or Rivals.

It's 247 Sports composite so he's going to be a 3* recruit. Makes no sense to me. We're already going to be getting rid of multiple 3* recruits & we add another one here? I don't get it but I'm sure Butch knows what he's doing more than we do. :)

Tony, honestly. The Vols use the 247 composite? Come on, now. Where did that come from? The only composite that the Vols use is the Butch Jones/Bob composite.

But, how does the University of Tennessee decide that? What recruiting site/service do they use to make the final determination? I know you know & I'm pretty positive that I know too. So, which is it Mr. Swanson? Thanks!

Wtf are you talking about?

Like literally wtf cause I have no idea what you mean by this?

Liked for Big Will reference.

No. The coaches use the 247 composite. I read it on one of my subs to a pay site. I'd share the link, but my staunch Pastafarianism and relationship with the Flying Spaghetti Monster and his noodle appendage keeps me from doing so. Rules are rules,
Buddy!
