So the obvious question is, how does this affect our CFP ranking?
I think #2 was actually the plan on that kickI can think of two things:
1) There were three minutes left and we had three timeouts. With a 3-and-out we could have gotten the ball back with over two minutes left. But since we needed two scores that probably wasn't such a good idea.
2) He was supposed to pooch it past the first line but before the return man and he just kicked it too far.
#div0?So the obvious question is, how does this affect our CFP ranking?
It's pretty simple: Venables knows how to defend the option and CPJ can't adjust to his defensive schemes.Yeah but SU was in it when he went out. They kept it close.
When we are outmatched at the line we don't really have any other gameplans to work around it. And we just keep running into a brick wall. I feel like we're better than Syracuse.
Tennessee lost again.So the obvious question is, how does this affect our CFP ranking?
I don't know how you gameplan for being outmatched at the lineYeah but SU was in it when he went out. They kept it close.

It looks like he slants in the defensive lineman on the backside of the play. It also helps that Devine is big and slow and the guy coming through was about 5x faster.It's pretty simple: Venables knows how to defend the option and CPJ can't adjust to his defensive schemes.
When it rains, it pours.Tennessee lost again.
Need to be able to option their DTs if you can’t block themI don't know how you gameplan for being outmatched at the line
If the key to defending the option is to outmatch the line of scrimmage while having fast athletes that can get to corner quickly, then Venables is a genius.It's pretty simple: Venables knows how to defend the option and CPJ can't adjust to his defensive schemes.
Yeah but was it a quality loss?Tennessee lost again.
Kentucky beat the Vols and has a better record than usTennessee lost again.
Doodah.clemson is still a redneck school,
That's the whole point of running the option.I don't know how you gameplan for being outmatched at the line
Agree here.When the QB is missing reads or just flat out making poor decisions it makes the blocking look worse than it was. Marshall had a really bad game
Teams do it all the time. Ask Syracuse.I don't know how you gameplan for being outmatched at the line
IMO that's CPJ's biggest weakness. It's obvious when the other team has it figured out, and we really have nothing else to go to. No quick passing game, slants, screens etc. Just more of the same.Teams do it all the time. Ask Syracuse.
Quick slants and screens are both ways of overcoming that. Set up draw plays for runs. Clear out linebackers and secondaries with tight ends, multiple receivers and slot guys running routes. Do whatever you can to move the point of attack from the other teams front four. None of those things are in our repertoire.
