Some posters on VQ are upset that greg McElroy said that he noticed in watching tape that on their down, Butch almost always runs draws, screens, fares, etc…. and with that kind of conservative 3rd down play calling, will get us another 9 win season. He said that Butch needs to trust Dobbs to throw the ball down the field and let our WRs make plays. Of course, our homers got upset, but they have no clue about football offenses. My current pet peeves are the statement made "Why play into a defenses strengths, when we can play into our offensive strength" and "our offensive line could no protect". Both are wrong statements and excuses for not making the right calls. Here is my response:

UT was very good on 3rd down last season @ 46%, which was 20th in the country and I think around 2nd in the SEC. That's not terrible. |

Key situations in big game is what counts. What we did against Vandy and Missouri do not matter. |
