The University of South Carolina will take on Tennessee this week. UT is coming off a loss to a very good 'Bama team. USC, as we know, had a bye week and got to rest up for the upcoming 'prove it or lose it' portion of their schedule.
I gots to thinking about the Vols and what are they capable of, the match-up for SC and after watching the UT game what do they bring to the game...hear is what to watch for this week:
1. Vols pressure. Vols can bring the heat on Garcia which we know how that brings. USC O line has to be ready to play and protect the QB. Vols secondary is suspect which could play into our favor. Hopefully they did not watch LSU's 2nd half playbook and pressure our QB....if they get to Garcia and rattle him then it could be a long night.
2. Vols O line is good...this could prove interesting for USC as we need to pressure UTs young gun. Bama was unable to put much pressure on Vols quarterback. USC's big nasty's will have to play really tough up front and control the line. Shut down the Vols rushing attack and force Stephens to throw against a very good USC secondary.
3. "Ears pinned back"...Vols are coming to Carolina with nothing to lose. Playing away from the pressure of a home crowd, I expect them to be playing with no fear. Also playing for Fulmer, which could be his last season, against Fulmer's sore spot - Spurrier.
4. USC's Offensive line must create running lanes. If they suck, USC will suck. UT D is good - The Vols are 23rd against the run and 20th against the pass. So USC's ability to control the game is needed here which means USC has to be able to run.
5. TOs. USC must not beat themselves vs. UT.
