Yeah that UT offense was just churning out the yards so they had to fake cramps to slow it down.

What was the difference in humidity.
Honestly it would be like someone in Gatlinburg or up one Clinch Mountain complaining about the heat and humidity in Knoxville. It's pretty comical.
Yes, it's cooler but it's nothing drastic. Very slight.

So, you're saying that the defense's cramps came when they were forced to exert themselves more?

Jesse Palmer noted that it was that extreme differential in temperature and humidity between Boone and Knoxville.

You don't cramp in 70 degrees. Cmon now.

Between that and the fact that they weren't substituting much at all on D. I'd lean more towards the latter though.

Well, you do, but carry on.

Like I said above, their defense didn't sub much.

Palmer noted the coach saying it never got over 80 degrees there all week. Well, it never got over 80 that night. It was quite pleasant out.

Temperature and humidity are not the only thing that causes cramps.

I used to be an adventurer like you until I took an arrow to the knee.
Props to anyone who got that.

It comes with running a hurry up. Players exert themselves more so they cramp up. I don't mind it even if they are faking. Do what you have to to try to win.

It also comes with first games of the year, especially in the south.

For real though. If you run a gimmick offense, expect a gimmick defense
