Tennessee looked like it had better athletes on the field across the board. Bigger, stronger, faster on both sides of the ball. There is a lot of work to be done getting the O and D lines where they need to be to play championship caliber teams. I think Riley knows it and can do the job.

I don't know. I didn't bother to witness another loss to any ranked team.

Totally incapable of blocking at the line. Outplayed, out-muscled....not enough talent.

I kept wondering why Gates wasn't given any help. Why no double teaming against Barnett?

Since I can't click both, I chose defense, all season long they have been dogged by not showing up till the 4th quarter.

The lack of coaching and talent became demostrably apparent. If a team wants to compete it MUSTbe talented in all positions with depth for the guys with a knuckle on the ground. Otherwise you will only be competitive with teams such as Indiana, Purdue and so on.

Easy vote here because Tommy, Westy and Newby did not play. The defense was atrocious and we just can't ever sack the QB and show that we can shut people down and show up when the offense needs em most.

linebackers were out of position and lost most of the night. Plus the lack of fundamentals in tackling!!!

SOFT ZONE/NO PRESSURE - Banker utilized the zone all year with mediocre results against pushover teams. Is it a surprise that potent offenses and even some not-so-potent (looking at you Iowa) were able to exploit it at will? When you play a soft zone and can't apply pressure to the QB you're done.

Defense is supposedly the easier to play, but for some reason, we made it looking like diarrhea offense for the other team...........

Well we do pretty good against teams without any speed and much athleticism. Western Michigans offensive line is twice as good as ours, why?defensive line too!!!!!

The tackling was terrible, they would throw their bodies in front of the ball carrier, no wrapping up, no sticking the ball carrier. It's like they were afraid to hit them.

Dump it into RBs and O-line and let TJ run wild.

If they are coming to NU "now". It can only help. Maybe run a "slanting" defense and catch them "off guard"!!! Stuff the "run"!!! GBR!!!

Only up from here. Good to have a system for a team and not just a few players.

On the defense I think you will increased intensity, like 2024. The offense line coaching should have been changed sooner, at least Rhule got someone with experience and proven quality development & execution.

Just not confident in Matt anymore. Why he makes millions of $ and has now had 7 coordinators and it's everybody else's fault and he keeps his job?. I've been a fan since the early 60s and now am more concerned about the program than ever before.
