Finebaum: Vols ‘knocking on the door of greatness'

Expectations bad. BAAAD.

6-6 is good enough, get to a bowl game and set up the team for that 2022 run. IMHO.

 

Prepare yourself for seeing that position taken in the upcoming months.

 

Welp were going 4-8 boys.

 

Waaay better than going 11-1 and getting screwed out of a chance at playing for the National Championship.

 

I'll believe a little bit when I see a competent offensive line for once.

 

I long to see an effective running back.

 

The offensive line was effective enough once Dobbs was under center. It wasn't great, but you can win with it.

Hurd is.

 

Hold out for 36 more days.

 

Yes, I think Kamara is going to complement him nicely too. Should be fun...

 

I think Kamara will prove to be too

 

Beat me by 3 sec

 

And now that he will have help I think we'll see a stronger better Hurd this year.

 

Great minds think alike!

 

If Hurd gets the chance, which he should, to be fresh against fatigued defenses late in games, he's going to really hurt people.

 

OL was definitely competent against Iowa. You did say "for once".

We'll see if they can match that performance and do so consistently across an entire season.

 

I will probably destroy my house if he trucks a UF DB for a TD.

 

Don't know how true this is, but someone was on 247 saying a coach said Kamara is penciled in as starter over Hurd at this point.

 

They're going to split carries pretty evenly.

It makes more sense to let Hurd come in and close games out like Richt used Gurley against Tennessee last year. So technically, Kamara starts gets the first 10 carries or so, but Hurd could finish with 20 or 25 touches while Kamara gets 20.

 

Unless it's a situation where it would really make sense to run it 45 times. In that situation, we will surely throw it 50 times.
