2021 Tennessee Game highlights

LINK

Here's a 25 minute CBS Sports highlight of last year's UT game. I watched it yesterday and feel a lot calmer about this weekend.

-The biggest thing to me is that none of what they're doing is new. The super wide field splits, the stacked or bunch WR formations...all done last year. If nothing else, we at least have a damn solid blueprint as a starting point before even beginning to look at 2022 film.
-Hooker, Tillman, and Hyatt all played last year. We've seen these guys. Tillman had a huge game on the stat sheet but ultimatley UT had 10 points with a few minutes left in the game
-Teh biggest thing to me, same as this year, is our offense. We dominiated them last yera which in turn kept their O off the field. We ran all over them and STetson had several huge runs himself.
-On a down note, a ton of guys that were making plays all thorugh that video for us aren't playing this yera. Notably James Cook (3 TDs), AD mitchell, Zamir, kendrick, most of the defense, etc. So we'll have to overcome that
-It doesn't look liek we really utilized the TEs much. I would imagine they'll play a much bigger factor this time
-UT has only played 2 games this year away from home, only 1 of which was an actually tough atmosphere. They neutralized that atmosphere quickly (mainly due to LSu dumb mitakes) to where it wans't a factor, which I highly doubt is the case this weekend. I truly dont' think any of their players are quite ready for this type of atmosphere since it will have been a year since they've played in something like it

People are rightly making a big fuss about UT's offense against our D but as mentioned I think the game will ultimatley come down to our O against their D. If we continue to play the same style of ball and wear them down like we've done most of the year I feel good.
