Title: Some College football observations after 3 weeks Post by: Volznut on September 16, 2018, 07:48:16 EDT * SEC is getting tougher. Not only are the powerhouses better (Bama, UGA), but so are the doormats (UK, Vandy). UF and UT may be the worst 2 teams in the SECE. Who would have thought that could happen? The thing is UT is actually better too.
* Bama's a machine. Hate them, but no one is beating them. No one. * Trevor Lawrence can play - hate we didn't get him * Biggest disappointments so far: FSU, Nebraska, UCLA, Arizona, Arkansas - they all have one thing in common * JG is going to be a really good player for us. I can see this UT team being very good in 2 years. There is a lot of young SEC level talent, and CJP is recruiting well. * Drew Richmond should sit. He personally was responsible for two lack of scores by UT. He is not good. * Ohio state is vastly overrated, as is the Big 10. They usually are. * UT's return game is not very good, someone needs to do some work there. * More downfield throws please. * UT's 4 RBs are pretty good, I like what we are doing there. Need a stud RB in this class too. * Florida could be the only SEC win for us. Must win. SC, UK, and Vandy will likely be favored against us, if we can somehow win a couple there then we have had a successful season. * Jarrett Stidham is very average. Auburn wins with D, and their lack of offense hurt them vs LSU * Best 4 teams in the country right now to me: Bama, UGA, Clemson, Oklahoma * Pac 12 is really bad this year. Washington and Oregon are likely the two best teams. Neither will make the playoffs.

Don't understand, he was a legit 5 star coming out of Memphis. One of the biggest busts on our team apparently. Maybe just a kid that doesn't have the fire in his belly? :dunno: If somehow he could start living up to his potential it would obviously fill a very critical need for us, but at this point it may be too late. :doh: Title: Re: Some College football observations after 3 weeks Post by: murfvol on September 17, 2018, 02:45:06 EDT Well said, but I gotta disagree about OSU.
And yeah, our current RT doesn't seem to have any fire. He may be a fine young man, but we've gotta get someone else in there.

Jarret Stidham is overall, above average. He can be very hot and cold, sometimes within the same game. UT has a good shot to beat UF next weekend. I believe UT has better skill, with UF slightly better at the LOS. Tackling in space will be key for UT, as will maintaining its composure. |
