re: Fromm's 15 Attempts

I would note too that the critique of Fromm not throwing more or gaining more yards might be because TN had the worst running defense (or damn near to it) in the SEC coming into Sat. My guess is the game plan was always to run early....run often.

9 of Fromm's 15 throws were in the first quarter. He only threw the ball 3 times in the second half. Once we wore down their defensive front, we ran the ball down their throats with passing plays sprinkled in here and there. I think the game plan was to have a balanced offense until they got worn down, and then run them into the ground.
