Alabama won 52-24 last year. Tennessee only scored 10 points in the last three quarters (all in the second half). The “easy TDs“ must have been in the first quarter.It looks to cause much more confusion than the Leach Air raid at least. Alabama has shut down Leach's offense the last 2 years. Several other teams have as well, despite Will Rogers being one of Leach's best QBs ever.
I don't think anyone is stopping this Tennessee offense. Last year the DBs couldn't get lined up in time due to the tempo, and DBs got confused when passing WRs off when they used switch releases. Led to some easy TDs, one of them a very long one.
That will have to be cleaned up this year or Tennessee is going to be playing from the lead, and that will adversely affect the offense. The stadium is going to be rocking, and probably will be an even more difficult setting than DRK was when Bama played at Texas in September.
