I want to see Tennessee try it on the 3rd Saturday in October and rattle Ainge a whole lot.
I keep seeing some on here talk of Ainge getting rattled. I don't think that will happen anymore. He got rattled his Soph year but if you watched any at all last year you saw a kid who was in total control of himself and his team. I never saw him rattled last year and I watched every game. So that does not concern me at all. The depth and experience at WR is more the issue.
Most schools pretty much run a "check with me" offense in some form or fashion. The difference will be it will now be done from the line instead of huddle. There will be no HUNH in K-Town you can bet on it. The hope is to limit subs on the D. If the D tries to sub then you will see a quick snap and get 5 free ones. Similar to the Colts, we kinda have an in with the Colts you know. :biggrin:
if you ever want to see how NOT to run a "check with me" offense just wtch clemson. tommy bowden is a complete idiot and that offense is amazingly predictable.... yes even more than our jumbo package. rich rodriguez knows how to run that offense but bowden is a pure no-talent hack....kinda like all the bowdens except for bobby.
I was wondering what everyone thinks about Tennessee ......
If I know CPF they will be hoping for mismatches on the run.
If I were a Vol fan, I think I'd be hoping Fulmer's hands were kept off the offense...![]()

About once every couple of games the D will get caught with the wrong player packages on the field for a play or two . Good defensive coaching staffs could care less unless they literally fall asleep in the booth . IMO , it's about 95% gimmick and offers no real advantage . The offense will make almost as many , if not more , errors in substitution packages and wasted timeouts as the defense when things get going . 6 in one hand , 1/2 dozen in the other . JOMO . :cool2:
If this works for UT, we will be the talk of NCAA football this year.
You are going to be so disappointed this year.
I don't think so but that is why we play the game.
So true....that is why we play the game. It's one of the the best rivalries in college football...and that's fact!
The problem comes with the D not having time to get fresh players in. That is why the Colts have worn out so many of their opponents. But you are correct in that if the O doesnt get it, there will be just as many mistakes on their side of the ball. If this works for UT, we will be the talk of NCAA football this year.
Let me clarify. Even if UT is successful with the switch to the "no huddle", it will not be "the talk" of the CFB world. Hawaii's offense will get more press nationally than UT's offense this coming season.
