Looks like no one bothers to throw on TN or are they skewed from both games against Georgia teams?
A combination of who they have played and their really weak run defense. Their run defense is about as bad as it gets.

With such gaudy defensive stats overshadowing his offense, and the imminent change at QB, ol' Botch ought to go for broke and bring DC Shoopy's brother out of "retirement" to ru(i)n his offense (and make Rocky Top even rockier): https://www.nytimes.com/2015/12/05/...rdue-fires-a-champion-of-athletes-rights.html

I don’t think they’ll fire him right now. Lose the next two? Then, it could happen.

It would not be right to fire Butch and have an interim make his debut in Tuscaloosa. It accomplishes nothing.

Again, none of this is concrete, but I'm still hearing that Botch might be retained. I don't think this is as cut and dried as many believe.

Now that I'm posting it, ESPN will likely break that he's been fired within 10 minutes... :biggrin:

I think they'd be stupid to fire him. But, if they do, hey....welcome to the wilderness and get ready to wander for a decade or so..... Go Vols, via the Moses route.....
