00:00Coach, a significant Saturday in the SEC. It's the third Saturday in October. The rivalry
00:08matchup in Knoxville between 11th ranked Tennessee and 7th ranked Alabama. Neither team stellar
00:15last week in their bounce back spot after a loss the weekend prior. How do you expect
00:20this game to look this afternoon on Rocky Top?
00:23Well, I'm gonna tell you there's some great pluses in both these teams, but the minus
00:27is concerning them both. Alabama, they have not been consistent on defense. Tennessee,
00:33they don't know who they are on offense, and I don't think those two factors will be the
00:36factor. When I have those kind of uncertainties, I always turn to who has the more veteran
00:41experience, quality quarterbacks, and I got to go with Milrow. This is going to be the
00:45difference in this football game will be Milrow because Nikko's not quite ready to get the
00:49whole thing done.
00:50Well, Coach, let's keep it there with Nikko and the inconsistency of the offense for Tennessee.
00:55We talked about it under five yards per carry over the last three games. What can Josh Hypel
01:01on that offense do to maybe keep that Alabama defense guessing, right? They don't have Carson
01:06back under center. So what can Nikko on that offense do to at least move the football tonight?
01:11Two things he's got to do. One, he's got to hit the deep ball. He's been overthrowing
01:16deep ball. My dad always told me there's two certainties in sports. Short putts never go
01:20in and overthrowing footballs never get caught. He's got a completion of not all overthrows
01:25and that's what he's been doing. If they will continue to, and then after looking at one
01:29shot, he's got to run. If he sees an alley, that's your first option. If he will, if he
01:33will scramble quickly from the downfield, but if something's wide open, take it early
01:38and then hit your deep balls downfield and quit overthrowing those deep balls.
01:42Yeah. Nikko Iyamalayava has struggled in three SEC games, a bump 96 through the air or less.
01:48And this Alabama defense find a pulse fifth worst scoring defense in the SEC. Unheard
01:55of the last 17 years under Nick Saban.
