Tennessee’s offense caters to the running game though. Us leading the SEC in avg team rushing yards a game last year/#8 nationally (only SEC team last year landing in top 10 avg rushing yards a game) in that category proves this.

Like, we will motion people pre snap just to lure an outside LB/safety/nickel CB away from the box and/or place 3 or 4 WRs nearly every play out on the widest splits possible before we simply attempt to cram the rock right up the middle more often than not. Many think of us as an air raid throw first offense, when in reality we literally run the ball more often than we throw it (our play selection last year ended at like 55% rush attempts 45% throwing attempts). How we line up most plays alone makes it really hard for our opponents to stack the box like they’d like to protect against our rushing attack we have.

We even ripped over 200+ despite several sacks against the statistical best/most talented DL in the SEC last year during the aTm game we won.

Our RBs will produce yet again this year. Dylan Sampson barring injury will be a name everyone on this board will know come next fall. Plus our Oline should be one of the best in league next year, if not the entire country.
