Tennessee Has 1 HUGE Advantage Against Georgia (Nobody knows What it is)

[sjt18]

Alabama dropped 8 most of the game.How that work out for them?

Has anyone figured out something that did work?

If I am not mistaken, UK tried some fairly complex combo coverages. One of the MAC teams tried a deep zone trying to make UT be patient... I think others have tried it since and failed to have success.

UT complicates it by spreading out so much that you either have to commit an extra guy to coverage or to stopping the run. What Heupel does really seems obvious. I mean, "duh. Split your receivers out wide so that the opposition either provides extra help in pass D then tries to run back for run support or extra help in the box then tries to drop into coverage when it is probably already too late.

It is kind of like being the first guy to discover that rocks are good for breaking windows.

Rocks? Windows? Heading to my ex’s house. Thanks!

"Everybody has a plan to fight me until they get punched in the mouth...."

Kirby is a defensive guy. He's watched our tape, evaluated out weaknesses, created a plan to limit our abilities. CJH has done the same. Georgia isn't going to bring anything exotic to the table. They think they have the better athletes. Kirby probably thinks that he's going to be in our backfield all day having a picnic. CJH is probably setting up plays that make them have to back off the pass rush. This is going to be a chess match that CJH will win in play calling. Whether our athletes can execute and perform is going to be that game to watch. I doubt we get 100yrds rushing out of our RB's but we don't need it. the threat of the run is enough. Tying up the guys to prevent it is enough. My gut says that the only way we win is if HH puts this game on his shoulders and wins with his feet. Every time the pass rush blows by him he bolts for 10yrds. Come up the middle and her rolls to the edge and rushes for 5-10yrds. Make the LB's and Safeties play to stop him from running to open up the field for the pass.

Just hope we don't have turnover-itis. Been pretty good so far.

So let me get this straight. Tennessee averages nearly 50 points a game. Georgia's QB only has x2 40 yard passes this season. Yet Georgia are 8 point favorites...?

Explosive plays this season (over 20 yds)
UT 44
GA 54

vs power 5 opponents
UT 34
GA 46

That might be part of the 8 pt deal.... I don't know..

"For us, moved right back into it as soon as I was done with the show,” said Heupel. “I’m absolutely proud of what we’ve done up until this point, from the time we’ve gotten here until now. There’s a lot of things that we need to continue to get better at, but the reality is that’s the first show, the first rankings. Everybody remembers what you do in November. The only one that matters is the last one.”
