After last Saturday, we knew that special teams would get some extra work this week.  Here's another reason they need to prep hard (from the Buffalo News story on this site's front page):

"The Bulls were thoroughly outclassed in a 41-10 loss at Neyland Stadium. The exception was on special teams, where UB forced and recovered two kickoff return fumbles and blocked a punt."

They've blocked three kicks so far this year.

Hopefully our punter wont get much work this Saturday, and the same for our kicker, except for PAT's and kickoffs.

What worries me more is the fact that we seem to be having a hard time pressuring quarterbacks. I would love to see more attempts at blitzing and getting some knock-downs and sacks of the opposing QB!!!

I dunno.  They had three sacks last week -- without Huynh for nearly all the game.  Don't know how many hurries because they don't show up on the box score.  As I recall one or two of the picks were because of the rush.
