One thing I will add is that many of the options we ran were in the Red Zone or close to it, which I am a big fan off.

Absolutely agree.

You guys think the OL started hitting their stride in the second half? Same plays that got stuffed in the first half were working in the second half.

I like him more than Kelly his freshman year. You'll see when he hits open field. 💨💨💨💨

Agree.....and I loved Kelly as a freshman. Kelly only had 40 carries for the season as a freshman though, Chandler will get a whole lot more touches than that this year. He'll be able to progress a lot quicker than Kelly did.....which is nothing but awesome for UT.

Having said that.....JFK is the man!!!

Butch actually addressed the fans about this specifically a couple years ago and tried to explain how not all plays that look like a read option are actually an option.

I think it's useless to call a lot of look a likes in this offense. Run the read option period or the DEs will tee off on the RBs.

Not even joking.. I think ESPN should consider the possibility of Corso stroking out on live TV this year.

Take him off.

I read an article about ESPN and Corso recently and they know what they have with Corso. More people love him than hate him. Even the people who hate him still watch the program. They have a win win situation. Herbie always props Corso up when he kinda strays, so all is good. Give the man a break. He did have a stroke and that's why he messes up from time to time. Corso himself said he would stay as long as ESPN wanted him. You always have the option of not watching but something tells me you will always watch :loco::loco:

Now I can agree with this and what jave is saying. Option plays give you leverage and numbers and should be used often.

I'd love the see you and Herbstreit discuss, because I only understand things at a macro level, and you clearly have more micro knowledge than I do. I know the qb keepers freeze the defense on future plays and make our offense so much more effective, but I couldn't argue with you on whether QD should keep on a particular play beyond citing a pretty renowned analyst. Props for staying civil throughout the disagreement though.

About to watch JSU vs Georgia Tech. Wonder how good their defense will do.

How use to playing Triple Option teams is JSU. I have no idea. I assume maybe more than UT, but not sure.

Biggest problem with the GT/UT game to me, was that it was even scheduled to begin with.

He would absolutely destroy me. I disagree with him on this one play. I had the benefit of looking at the play 10-12 times and not on live TV. He was also looking for a point to slide that narrative about QD versus JD. He was doing his job. He just picked the wrong play to make that comment.

They are running a nickel and playing right in the WRs faces. Smh Shoop and that soft BS has to stop. They are forcing GT to take shots.

Clearly our defense didn't play great. They started strong however, but eventually, thanks in part to the offense, they gassed out. The big guys can't play 90 snaps a game. That's the coaches fault also. But our offense didn't do our guys any favor early. Hopefully our defense is better than they looked Monday.

Sec nation kinda guy. If I watch game day for a little bit it's not bc of Corso, but Corso is one of the reasons I don't care to watch.
