run blocking scheme

[hixsonvol]

Is it me or has the run blocking regressed from last year?

Or is it that teams had to respect our passing last year and d's had to play softer?

This O-Line played much better with Pittman, but with our QBs, the defense just needs to worry about stopping the run.

O-line's way over rated.
Graduating them could be a blessing.

This OL pass blocks well, their run blocking is horrible, they do not move the line of scrimmage on running plays. They are over hyped, over-rated or not very well coached!!!

all thanks to Jim Chaney who wanted a passing attack offense. They pass block well, running is different story

I was wondering about the running game and the missed assignments.

It was rough watching Stone get man handled through out the game.

Man on man is better... No homo

In fairness, nobody respects our pass. Why should they?

Our severely imbalanced offense makes our run blocking look worse than it really is.

Nope ... graduating experience, especially a lot of experience always hurts badly. We are just unlucky as heck and unlucky hurts when recruiting has been bad for a few years.

My worry is that recruits may see these losses and not want to come to Tennessee. Butch is gonna have to do some serious recruiting for a couple of years.
