I don't buy the "give-up" attitude that is being stated by some of our fans relating to UT's overwhelming strength compared to ours. They began the season being a great deal more talented than UK, no argument here! The dynamics have shifted in a big way at this stage of the season,(9th. game), however!!!!!! UT has suffered some significant injuries regarding "key players",while UK is playing far better both offensively & defensively than the most ardent among us thought possible, especially how we began the season!
I feel that we match-up very well with "Rocky Top" considering the dynamics stated above!!! We must do what we haven't been very successful at up to this point in the season, "protecting the ball".
Two other areas that I believe that we Must Do Defensively - play tight PRESS man coverage with our DB's and use Jordan Jones as a spy vs Josh Dobbs!!!!!!!! In our previous 3 years vs Dobbs, we have made him out to be a more experienced Lemar Johnson!!!!! If we try to play him in our customary DF profile, we will lose by two to three TD's!!!!! Just my take!!!
