I agree but improvement in all phases of special teams and on defense is a must. I don't want to rain on anyone's party but other than Kelly, and the wide receivers this is not that great a Tennessee team. One good enough to take advantage of the usual poor defense, special teams miscues and...

I have been willing to give Coach Roof the benefit of the doubt for so long but 33 is right. We are not creative in our blitzes and our line is forever being pushed around. For this year, I am from Missouri "show me".

They should do what UGA did so many times under MR run the ball right at us and use play action passing. I am not at all confident that we can stop that simple game plan even today.

"Mr. Benson" will take care of your worries at Bback so rest easy on that score. As for the rest, well we will see very soon.

It is his time. He has worked and prepared for this moment. I hope he enjoys it as much as I will watching and cheering him on.

Pressure is what Alabama is all about. They will bring it and keep bringing it until they are burned like Clemson did to them. It is in their DNA.

You may not have played football but what you posted is very sound advice for any coach having to defend the triple option. To me, penetration by someone is key to disrupting the timing and reads of the quarterback. It could be a safety, defensive tackle or an end. Standing around and...

Well, a couple of points. It only works if you have someone like Cash or the guy from Virginia Tech Kam Chandler (Chancellor?). Those guys don't grow on trees. Secondly, bringing him up leaves everyone else pretty much in man coverage. You best make sure to block him blitzing and hit one of...

It is a level of difficulty that is difficult for fans to grasp. Defending this offense makes defenders do things that run totally contrary to their instincts. So often, I will see a defense play us well for perhaps a quarter and then the self discipline starts to break down and defenders fall...

Yep. His speed and athleticism are unusually good for an interior lineman. I still maintain that if it were me. Big IF I know, but bear with me here. I would bring my best athlete usually a safety and shoot those gaps until Tech did something to stop it. I would be damned if I would let...

True but it is a sad spectacle none the less.

This is interesting because Florida fans have the exact same generational divide. The over 40 crowd hate UGA with unbridled passion the younger ones despise FSU. The older Gators remember Heisman candidate Spurrier losing to an underdog UGA team in 1966, they recall "Fourth and Dumb", being...

You just think you hate Georgia. I hate UGA so much that I would not root for them with one engine out on their team plane. They have the most obnoxious fan base in the South. Sorry Miami and LSU you are just amateurs compared to UGA. Where else can you see grown men barking like a dog?

I am not sure we can afford to lose even one. I am taking Tennessee by about a touchdown but it is shaky like real shaky. Tennessee is a team with a lot of talent but a lot of questions. I am just thankful we are not playing them the first game of LAST season when they had Dobbs, Kramer and...

If more college athletes had the character and work ethic of KF, the image of the sport would be a whole lot higher than it is currently with the stuff going on what with bag men, smoking dope, hitting girls and the like.

I don't know. You might be right but one thing that stood out to me in looking at TD's high school film was how fast and decisive he played. He KNOWS where to go and what he is about. As instinctive as they come. I for one am not surprised by BJS emergence. You wait and see, this guy is...

I just meant that we were down to a "third stringer" whoever it was going to be after losing the first two "stringers" as it were. Confusing I know. Gotta go take my meds maybe that will clear my thinking.

I have several things that I will in all likelihood say but I don't care to be banned before the first game.

He's fast you can be sure of that. Between K Benson and Jerry we just might be all right. I can't get over the fact that all of a sudden we are down to a true freshman and a player who was 3rd string or worse last year yet Coach Johnson is apparently unconcerned. I guess he has confidence in...

Roddy Jones is an outstanding young man and represents the best of Georgia Tech. He is bound for much bigger things. Really enjoy hearing his take on the triple option and why we use it. As takethepoints explained, it is an offensive lineman friendly offense that highlights the ability to...
