Tennessee Postgame Discussion

The fact that we had tremble playing a hybrid defensive edge / LB role says a lot about the defense. And if we don’t have the talent, we have to adjust the scheme.

They wasn’t Tremble pretty sure that was Gary Bryant they both wear 13

Pretty sure that was Matt Park being Matt Park. Didn't realize that Tremble switched to #82 today.

Did anyone screenshot the one play "on defense" he was allegedly in?

I don't see that in big games . To slow, poor reaction time,does not read defense well.
This was a big game! He led our offense to over 400 yards (minus sacks) and 24 first downs! 271 passing yards. against a top notch defense.

Angeli wasn’t perfect but I feel great about him leading the offense going forward.

This was not Devito vs Notre Dame. Angeli and the offense played good enough to win.

From what I’ve seen today against elite defenses, our offense looks better than Texas, Alabama and LSU
 
One more thought, for Fran to specifically coach/work with the DBs, they are not up to snuff. I figured he would’ve been able to pick up some higher quality transfers there.

He was the guy who caught the ball on the play that they reviewed for targeting right along the line of scrimmage.
 
I did think the tackling was better today. There was more wrapping up.

It's just the missed tackles end up being really glaring.

Yeah, I kind of agree. There were times when we just stuffed their runs, and other times they could get 10 yards every time.
 
Gotcha. I didn't see any #82 in on defense, so I don't have Park's back on that.
I did see it once. No idea when it was though and I dismissed it as a duplicate number or something. Very strange
 
Looking back, I'm still struggling to come to terms with how bad of a performance this was defensively. Right now its looking like out of all Power 5 teams this week, we are going to have the most points given up by a wide margin ( even if we don't count the fumble return). Just completely unacceptable especially after a full off-season to prepare

I was just thinking, if people here think Angeli was “bad” today… look at the performances of a lot of the “elite” QBs today in week 1. I thought Angeli was actually showing me decent things. Made some big plays. Don’t even mention cuse Devito reminds you’d of Angeli…. Not even close
 
Imagine we won and Clemson does what they’re supposed to do? Would’ve been a banner day for the ACC.
 
Talk about missing Mr McCord. How many of his 2 min drills put us back in games last year.

Today the last 2 mins of the half and the first 2:30 mins of the 2nd half below:

Tenn
-75 yard TD drive in 1:34 with a 47 yard run
-20 yard td drive in 2 mins.

Cuse
-Angeli fumble recovered by us luckily at our 25 before half.
-Angeli interception at our 25

Sort of a miracle we bounced back a little after that disaster before and after the half.

I think the offense will improve. Alot of jitters at key moments in August.
 
I think another problem I’ve seen said once or twice but not talked about enough is, we don’t do stunts or anything on the d-line we play gaps which never generates pressure. Same can be said for offense Tennessee would send 4 guys and would shoot different gaps and the O-line would look lost as Angeli had a guy in his face within a second.
I think it’s bc if a guy like fundess-cundiff stunts, he’s just gonna get washed out.
