Our D in the 2nd half improved......Sal and co adjusted. 80 yds allowed passingby NCST when they were down is not bad. Maybe we really grew up on D.

Yep. Completely convinced the 1st half passing issues were mostly miscommunications after reviewing the game on dvr.
Two more weeks to fix it.

They say the most improvement is from the first game to the second game. I actually feel sorry for Georgia State if that's 100% true. But I can't wait to see the improvement these guys get before the 3rd game. Vols proveided the excitement we've missed the last few years. GBO!

was worried when lathers went out but the D handled it nicely.
with a few more adjustments i think we will be real pleased with the D.
when we get more receivers healthy this O is gonna be almost unstopable. we maybe the only ones who can stop us.
GO BIG ORANGE!!!

I thought the D-line looked pretty impressive pass rushing. Part of the reason Glennon threw 4 picks was he had various members of our front-7 bearing down on him all night.
I'm not sure how much of our inability to run between the tackles was the O-line's fault, but it looked to me they were outstanding all night in pass-protection, just like last year. They enabled that 333 yds passing and some credit for the 0 INT's too -- Bray rarely/never had any heat on him and could take his time.

I hope run game improves. Gotta open some holes and Lane needs to run north not east/west.

rhino i think something that everybody has over looked was no stupid penaltys by an aggresive defense. the dumb penaltys were on state.
we had some 5 yarders on O no holding. big big improvement in that area

Well, I think part of that was the ref crew. They called an extremely loose game. Perhaps there would've been a lot more penalties with a tighter crew calling stuff.
Lots of holding and other calls were overlooked on both sides.

Lane ran North South, Neal and Devrin was running east west too much. I think holes could ahve been better, but perhaps their DL was better than thought, their DE were very good. I had thought the middle would be soft, but to me it wasnt very soft all night. If they dont open huge holes next week I will be worried though.
