Title: What are your theories on the Vols slow starts in games this season? I know it's Post by: volsboy on September 28, 2016, 04:06:01 EDT not intentional or planned by any means. It just seems some teams have this tendency. Or like last year get the lead and then try to hang on. It doesn't matter just so there's a W at the end of the day. I would love to see them take the opening couple of drives to the house in a few games. A lot easier on the blood pressure. I'm not sure there is any definite reason a team repeatedly starts slow. Can't wait to see how bad this team beats someone when both halves are lights out. Bama and aTm would be good games to have this happen. :naughty:

Perhaps he's experimenting a bit at the start to see what's needed? Hard to say what the problem is on O.

I know it's Post by: Tnphil on September 28, 2016, 06:59:16 EDT Shouldn't have been a slow start against Florida....catch the darn ball and we have 17-21 points the first half. Inside the 5 twice and come away with no points.
When you play a team the likes of App State, VT, Ohio with less talent they come out usually with a game plan away from the norm....takes a few series for the defense to adjust. Also with the injuries we've had on defense it makes you change things up to fit the new personnel. |
