Do some you even stat?

Gave up 453 yards passing to one of the more mediocre passing QB's in the SEC. No UF running back gained over 3.9 YPC. What does that tell you? What should it tell you?

Banks and Martinez. Period. Scheme, coverages and d-back development. They embarrassed themselves putting that product on the field. They've got to get better as coaches before the players can get measurably better.
Let's worry about it later. Enjoy the win
 
Not able to go to the games so I had the next best thing- watching the game with my daughter and her fiancée at their house. It's hard to explain to people under 30 just how frustrating and emotionally draining TN vs FL games have been the last 20 years. It was wonderful to watch TN finally win one like this.

After a 3 win season and then losing around 30 of our best players to the portal, kudos to the coaches and players for turning it around so quickly. I can't wait for the LSU game. My daughter bought me tickets to the game back in August. So ready to cheer on our undefeated VOLS!!!!!!
 
I think people like you mistake players not making a play equals bad coaching. We were aggressive on offense for almost 3.5 quarters. Some penalties, a fumble from Fant and our OL not consistently getting a push in the run game kept this from being a bigger win.

Defensive gameplan was extremely solid and very aggressive. We stopped the run game....even Richardson didn't tear us up on the ground even though he had solid numbers. The pressure was good play calling and got AR off his spot but he was able to evade enough blitzes to extend plays and find WRs one the play broke down. He had not previously shown the ability to hit on those plays.

UF has a better OL than us and the DL is comparable with probably a slight edge to UF. Our scheme and ability to wear down their lack of DL depth late allowed us to salt the game away on the ground. Add in some timely "bend don't break" defense and we were in position to be in charge late. We slowed our tempo to leave UF's mostly anemic passing game with their only option since they were down three scores late.

This win is 100% on our coaches for their schemes, play calls, player development in key positions and smart situational awareness to play the numbers. The odds were overwhelmingly in our favor in the last few minutes and only a silly mistake from being too aggressive could have improved UF's odds. Our coaches know when to be aggressive and when to milk clock. They also aren't afraid to stop the clock to avoid penalties, being in the wrong scheme, being misaligned or just being in a bad match-up or risking confusion. Once again, good coaching and a ganeplan that set us up for a win without one of the best WRs in the country and limited RB depth.
Well said

Tomorrow I might listen to you, but today…..

Agreed on Keyton. Not sure on Fant yet. Love that dude, but that fumble is stuck in my brain. Proud of him for coming back and making a play late. Ran a great route.
Immediately cussed him but on the replay you could see he secured the ball immediately and was bringing the other arm over a millisecond too late to prevent the Peanut Punch. Flippant carelessness in securing the ball personally infuriates me...he didn't meet that definition.
 
What sucks is D4H thinking his "eye test" on Richardson is validated. Of course "stats are meaningless" suffers because he'll use them. ;)
