Tennessee/ GT Thread

I wonder how fitz would've looked in their offense. I kinda think he'd do great, but I can't remember an option qb that big... Scott frost, maybe

From what I saw Fitz do in that O in HS, he would have destroyed a lot of teams, but he would not have developed as a passer.

I will be the second to mention, setting GT as your season opener is stupid. People want to talk about the HUNH offenses being dangerous, look at the cut blocks down field on every play. Defense will not even attack the ball because they know a no talent white gaurd is about to cut you from the inside.

Also, scheming for the offense is a waste of time.

Yeah the dl and lbs quit worrying about reading keys cause they're to busy looking out for guys diving at their legs. It's a nasty nasty offense.

I hate to see an ACC team beating an SEC team, but the looks on the Tennessee fans in the crowd is <17>ing great.

I really like how tenn sets up some of their screens. As much as I like Mullen, he's awful in the screen game. Screens would be a great way to help our oline also. Mullen needs to develop a screen game

Oh yeah they were only interested in the passing game stuff lol mostly combo routes over the middle and how to protect the qb in empty sets.

I thought what Dan said about getting rid of the ball and then throwing away from the pressure was pretty interesting.

Yeah sliding 3 or 4 feet away and getting the ball out in 1.2 seconds among other things and the Pats execute that better than anyone. I like the part about the option routes from the slots and running the verticals over it. We do that quite often. All these things are why Dak was so successful so quick. He was running an NFL passing game in college. The reads, the checks all the pre snap changes. Dan really is a brilliant mind. Sometimes maybe to brilliant lol

He destroyed OM in the Egg Bowl that year with Ralph & Perkins on screens, but hasn't shown them much sense.

Not sure why

GT missing one of their best RBs too. This GT team gonna be good this year.

[TUSK]

I think my guys could have 3 or 4 players with 100 rushing vs the Blueticks.... The TSIO is gonna be glorious....

[TUSK]

HUNT THE BALL BUCKET!!!!

[msstate7]

Big play

Agreed.

Uh, when did Tom Osborne stop coaching?

I mean, sure, it worked well in the 20s, too. In today's college football, you just can't get past a certain level running it. Aside from the issues it gives you in-game, it is a severe hit in recruiting. Nobody wants to go play in that system.

Osbourne also had a suffocating D to go with that offense most years. That is where he built that program. GT hasn't ever been a defensive juggernaut. It's kind of a hard thing to do when your ones can only get decent practice reps against an air raid offense vs. the scout team.

[msstate7]

Go for 2?
