downwind.That was a 65 yard pass through the air. Mertz would have to throw it twice.

its the lack of any pass blocking and lack of any routes more than 5 yds past the LOS that cost us the game. the penalites just magnified things.

Was at that game. When that happened, while intoxicated, I told her, "I think those broke his Fuching Neck".

It’s not unlike watching golf. The announcers have to say the same thing over and over - hit the fairway, land it on the green in an optimum spot, make the putt.
Coaches say the same things over and over because they are true. Once you’ve got your team set for the season, the primary way to win is to execute and minimize mistakes. They’ve got to put guys in position matching their skill sets with scheme. Etc. etc. etc. If we want to be the best of the rest in the SECe we’ve got to execute better than Ky, SC, MO & Ut. Fewer turnovers. Less mistakes. Talent is better on paper, but they have to play better on the field.
And no scheme works without execution.
Billy drones on and on about such principles. He’s right. They are true. He’s taking responsibility as he should. Now git r done.

Maybe....Back when it was Fulmer vs Spurrier, the Vols were NC Contenders some of those years, and pretty damn good until Fulmer got the ax.
I think they earned some respect last year with the big win over the Tide and how their year played out nationally.
Granted, the heart and soul of that team is gone but, I think the general feel around the country is the Vols are back to being at least a top 15 team.
The general feel for our program nationally, is in the toilet. Every sports article I read mentions how terrible Florida is this year.
So yes, I think a big win over the vols this Saturday, will go a long way for the perception of our HBC and our team.

I'm in the camp of Gator fans that think Napier is in over his head and he's not a good GameDay coach. But I really think we can beat Tennessee this weekend. We'll be playing with a chip on our shoulder and the crowd will be loud. I think we'll be able to pass the ball on them a little bit and we will out-rush them and that'll be the key to the win. I wouldn't be surprised if they get up on us also and we won't be able to come back on them. I wouldn't be surprised either way. But I have a good feeling about this one. I think Milton isn't as good as Hooker. Our Defense is playing better this year and the Swamp will be raucous and they will cause problems for the UT offense.

Player leadership is key. I see that emerging on defense in Shemar James. He’s aggressive, prepared and vocal.
Mertz is the closest I’ve seen on offense. But I’d like to see Montrell, Etienne & Kingsley light fires.

I just don’t think we can muster enough offense against a good defense. Last week was against a woefully inferior opponent. Maybe if our OL can look much improved from the Utah game, but otherwise I’m not optimistic.
