Good coaching and players that have bought in. 51 players from the portal really can change a team in a blink of an eye. It doesn't always work,...
Mertz was really using the TEs in this game. It was one wrinkle Tennessee couldn't handle.
What I mean by missed opportunities and dumb plays - Mertz fumbling at the 1 inch line when he should have handed the ball to a running back....
No he did lose the game....all the missed opportunities in the 1st half doomed us in the 2nd half. Easily should have been 17-0 at the half...easily.
The thing is if it's true that the improved defensive play is due to Napier, I'm more stunned. What he couldn't do as an OC, he did as a DC. Or...
Napier hasn't beaten a single ranked team since his debut against Utah.
But you see that's why you need to go for 2. The game is in your hands at that point. It's not with OT, especially when I saw UT win the toss....
Especially if Mertz is gone for the year. I like Lagway, but he's not ready for this gauntlet. He tends to telegraph things whereas Mertz saw...
Yikes. And Tennessee ended the same streak set last in 1971 never having beaten us after a loss.
The issue is the missteps all through the game. False starts on crucial downs, too many men on the field, delay of game after a KO, penalty to...

You can bet Vandy would have gone for 2. On the road, unranked, against Top 10 competition. You never ever go for the OT unless you have shown...
Napier just ended a 53 year streak. The first time Tennessee has beaten us after a loss since 1971.
Holy crap we got a turnover! I forgot how great it feels to get one.
I wished but we rank almost dead last in creating turn overs.
Napier didn't even attempt to argue the spot.
It was an almost perfect game by SC following a perfect game by Vandy.
If we had SC's defense we might be undefeated.
The last time Tennessee beat the Gators after a loss? Frazier beat Ali in 15 rounds in the "fight of the century" in 1971. They are 0-8 since then.
Then you missed the nuances. This one was Oscar-worthy. Lots of locations and phrases that harken to the beginning days of SEC Shorts. There's...
