Expect a up tempo w extra run. The D is gonna step up and the O is gonna pound em. Close game but we pull away at the end.We will know more in the KY game. Southern Miss gashed them running the ball right down their throat in the 2nd half of that game tonight.
Our guys get wide open from coaches scheme. Have you forgotten we did not forward pass for 3 years? I like coach and he is good. Hang tight.I think you can tell pretty quick if a coach has it or not... Look at Tom Herman.
I was behind a Reatta convertible last week. Rare sighting - they've become collectible (at least the roadsters have).Those were semi-glorious times for GM. Every maker except Olds had a two-seater. Fiero, Corvette, Allante, Reatta.
I keep coming back to this thought as well. Going back over the game and looking at highlights and stats, we threw it 44 times and ran it 29. Really only 23, as 6 carries were attributed to LDR, which were scrambles/sacks. Given the weather and maybe some of the inconsistencies at times with the passing, more rushes should have been in order. Scarlett averaged 5.4 yds for 70 total on 13 carries. Not necessarily eye-popping, but good, workman-like numbers. I think his YAC was pretty decent just from eyeballing. If UK struggles against the rush this week like they did against SoMiss, I'll be really surprised if we don't have at least 10-12 more rushing attempts, barring anything unforeseen happening. We might have to go away from the new norm this year and actually run to set up the pass. A lot will depend on the OL of course. Want to see a leap from last week to this one. Will be frightening if we don't.I'm surprised we didn't run the ball more. They were playing a two deep safety with several zone blitzes thrown in there. Definitely the type of front inviting you to run the ball.

Diddo.Extremely disappointed in the o-line. Not much push from an offensive line that outweighed their opponents by 40 pounds. Unless we get some guys in there with a take no prisoners attitude we will not beat the better teams in the SEC. They're soft. D-line played ok late but were not really into it the first half.
The overall play in the first 3-1/2 quarters was 1 step forward, 2 steps back. Terrible penalties that extended UMass drives or called back big offensive plays. Made me want to pull my hair out. Add in a couple of key dropped passes and it was the typical kind of crap we've seen way to damn much of the last half dozen years.
That said, Del Rio played ok and didn't turn the ball over. Scarlett ran hard and Eddie did an awesome job with all of his kicks.
