Hand the ball off. And throw the WR screen because our guys were lined up 10 yards off the ball. That’s it. They were running some RPO stuff early trying to hit the guy up the seam but they ditched it because their QB was so shitty at it. Two freaking plays and we couldn’t stop it.

And our defensive coordinator didn’t just at all.

Yeah. Horizontal passes were a free 4/5 yards because we were absolutely ok with them just inching the ball down the field.

It’s almost like you should make the back up QB prove he can beat you.

Kane plays soft defense until the red zone

That's his strategy, didn't give up big plays and hope they give you a turnover until the red zone

Yeah, i really hope teams don't realize that they can beat the shite out of us by just handing the ball off every play.

The defense hasn’t set the edge on a Power 4 team this season. Said same thing last week.

They've run a super simple scheme that's done exactly the same thing Heupel's entire time there. There were absolutely zero surprises today.

You can make of that what you will , but there is no doubt we knew what we were going to get from tenn.

Yeah that’s why they gave uk 290ypg last year bc they just let teams go up and down the field.

You guys downvote and share your opinion but I never see ONE STATISTIC to support any of it.

UT scored 2 TDs and Bama’s D setup 10 points. That’s a whopping net +4 points for UT’s offense with 8 possessions in the 1st half alone including 4 that started inside the 37yd line.
