[QUOTE="Whiskey_Clear, post: 322818, member: 735"] [USER=3517]@gtvol[/USER] Hoke's comments are pretty typical coach speak regarding our scheme IMO. That whole thing is a bit blown out of proportion. We do some things more than others do, pull guards, focus more on Oline blocking the 2nd level, cut, etc. Those nuances have to be accounted for just like different nuances of other schemes have to. Football fundamentals are fundamentals though. It's just as important to read keys and stick to assignments vs us as vs other teams. An advantage we have is a play caller who has mastered his scheme and seen about every tactic out there thrown against it. So we usually have an advantage when personnel on the field are fairly evenly matched. If you want to see some stud Dline play vs us and how we react to it see LSU V GT peach bowl (ugh we are cursed in that bowl), GT v Iowa Orange Bowl, GT v BC (unknown year but BJ Rahji and another DT gave us fits), GT v Pitt and Aaron Donald, GT v Maryland and Joe Vellano. Those Dlines and DTs are probably the best examples of games where we struggled personnel wise against a team and how we countered them. (Quite often by trying to run away from them but with a lack of or marginal success in those games.) Also Clemson last year in the first half...dominated us across the board that half. Ok now that you have brought to mind all those headaches....you owe me a beer. I expect a close tough game against the vols. I don't expect their Dline to equate to the performances I cited above however. [/QUOTE]
