Tennessee Game Day Thread

Thanks to all for keeping the game day posts in one place. Makes it easier on us old folks :whistle:

Stay focused, play OUR GAME and we should score 50+. Look for our D to show more improvement and play above expectations.


did I say how much I hate orange?

GO DAWGS GATA

In the link below, writer gives a pretty good overall picture as to what this game will/might look like. Some things not taken into consideration when posting stats, to be expected. Overall good article.

One paragaph that I pulled out of the article below brought back some memories. Matter of fact mentioned the Willie Martinez style of bending not breaking in another thread yesterday.

One thing I do know, we can and will run the football. Another little piece of information( ) who would have thought . . . . AM will go downfield, with his reliable and speedy receivers. Speaking for myself, really like Chris Conley and he will burn one of Willie's players today . . . . for sure.

If Gurley is still dinged up and trying/wanting to play, that is between him and Richt. Think that our running backs and fullbacks are going to improve on an already great running game.

No doubt in my mind that Tennessee will come to play . . . . their opponent is GEORGIA.

3. Red Zone Defense: Field Goals and Turnovers

Here's something Butch Jones/John Jancek teams have been historically good at, and the '13 Vols have been no exception. The bad news: opponents have been in the red zone 24 times this year, 119th nationally. The good news: they've only scored 12 touchdowns. The 50% red zone TD's allowed number puts the Vol defense 22nd nationally. Bend, don't break.

Tennessee is going to go with their smokey gray uniforms today, after the Dawgs "O" gets done burning them all today they with be in ashes just like their smokey gray uniforms! :laugh:


GO DAWGS SIC"EM WOOF WOOF WOOF!

ogredawg you said . . . .Look for our D to show more improvement and play above expectations.

Good point. Really liked what Chris Mayes had to offer against LSU. Chris Wilson truly has broken ranks with the way Garner ran the defensive line.

Chris being listed as a NT only, frees up Toby Johnson to work at DE. Probably see a lot of that today. When Chris Mayes played high school football in Griffin, he was heavily recruited by big time schools. Grades were a problem, got that fixed, and the Big Man is ready to play.

Question . . . . What is going on with Greg Pyke? Felt he was going to step up this season and make a mark for himself. Appears that Kublanow has. Not aware of any injuries to Pyke. Maybe he is getting snaps and I have missed it. If so, maybe today.
