TN vs The Mighty Gators

Let's all be honest with ourselves, who at halftime thought we had any chance of covering the spread? I didn't think we'd cover the spread even before the game, but I thought it'd be because Dan would take his foot off of the gas in the 4th quarter and let UT score garbage time points as he is known for.

What I am seeing now is that we are definitely a 2nd half team. That's what we want, a coaching staff that can make adjustments at halftime and fix what's not working. We're doing that. For as great a talent as UGLY is, Kirby Smart doesn't even know how to spell the word adjustment let alone be able to tell you when halftime occurs in a football game.

Sitting in the stands at halftime, I wasn't concerned with covering the spread, I was seriously wondering if another completely undefended pass or blown run coverage would end up having us lose this game. Luckily we shut down the meth-heads from Knoxville yet again.

16 out of 17 baby, it's now 'Tucky week! Get better each week. Improve. Fix what's not working and continue to fight as a team. Our schedule doesn't set us up well in this, a rebuilding year, but even with the #1 and #2 teams on our regular season schedule, we still own our destiny at this point and we're getting better.
It was a great display of coaching. I feel like we let up on the offensive side to run it out on them. Had we stayed aggressive like how we came out in the 3rd we would have scored another TD imo. Fantastic coaching job. Clean up some of the missed tackles and a couple of missed assignments and they maybe score 1 TD on the game. TN runs a hard offense to stop...like Mizzou a few years ago. Overall great job by the players and coaches. 24 point win!
