Sprinting to the other end. I'm loving it.

 

[PA Vol]

I like this new energy

 

[firestorm]

End of First it has been all Big Orange.

 

[Crew]

...damn. lol.

 

[MiramarVol]

I've never seen a team run to the other end like that before. I loved that new twist by Butch.

More North. We have to prove we can throw it downfield against one of the worst teams in the nation.

 

[TNHopeful505]

Aside from the North miss....anyone have ANY flaws they see in that quarter? High energy, high speed, high physicality, high efficiency. I LOVE it.

 

[crazyguy]

Those runs are going to get blown up by good teams, vs AP they are 20 yd gains

I hate to agree, but I think you're right. We're on the right track though- this program is finally headed in the right direction.

 

[17Vols]

That sprint downfield after the quarter was the highlight of the game so far!!!!

as bad as we've been rushing the last few years keep feeding the backs, they need all the live reps they can get. I assume when we play a "good" team, we will be more balanced so they can't stack the box.

Awesome to see them run off like that at the end of the quarter... Butch is bringing in someting new and exciting... very impressed so far...

 

[golfballs]

Neither. This AP team is BAD.

Negavol IMO

 

[volfanhill]

If we don't pass it more soon, it's b/c we can't.

No its because we are running a vanilla offense as to not help the next team game plan against us. We are not running our full playbook this game just as we dont during the orange and white. We dont need to throw to win this one so why do it?

 

[TNHopeful505]

The TOP is amazing! I love that.

You have to understand that was a poorly thrown ball. You cant pit the blame on North. If hes hit in stride it's 6.

I really like this. It's such a slap to ap who's walking to the sideline

Other than playing AP?

 

[DEFENDTHISHOUSE]

Keeping in mind who we are playing, I'm liking the look of these Vols.

 

[buffaloblue]

The whole team ran sidelines and field.

The attitude has changed in Knoxville. I can feel a new energy!

 

[Ashevolle]

Butch ain't showing his hand yet either. We likely look quite a bit different next week.

 

[wherewolf]

The North miss was the one mistake. WR and long balls are the one question so far.
Gotta prove we can throw it. 28 pass yds a quarter against a HS team ain't doing it.

 

[TNVOL]

Good first qtr, no fumbles, no int, few missed tackles. I like it, even switched to high test drinks its going so well

 

[Plecoptera]

Not sure i wanna see Worley downfield blocking this much

It is a little concerning.

 

[Mtownvol]

Did anybody else espn3 just freeze????
