Missed the game guys! Few thoughts.

  • Ended up having to work but thanks Wes for all the updates on Twitter and on here. I stayed up and actually watched the re-air at 4AM! Impressive first game IMO.

    We have to stop doing that play-play stuff on short yardarge situations. You don't recruit 315 pound OL to do that!

    I thought CP was incredible. Fast, athletic, raw, all the above. He's going to be a problem for the opposition this year, especially once hunter gets going.

    I was so happy for Z. Rogers getting his this game! Especially going up against Ansley. I didn't realize he was that fast.

    As for the 3-4, we are gonna give up some yards but I think that's going to be unavoidable because of the transition. We'll create lots of turnovers and knock the hell out of many opponents!

    Was it just me or did we look supremely conditioned? Everybody looked so fast! #vols

  • Totally agree. I was glad to see Marlin running down hill and making exceptional cuts. Maybe that'll light a fire under Rajion. Also, like you stated, we have to bow up on third and short and run it down their throat. Overall, I was impressed.

    It did stand out to me that we appeared to be the much better conditioned team
