Three and Out: Tennessee
Sep. 20, 20091. The Gators' defensive tackles were being driven off the ball. Lawrence Marsh, Jaye Howard, Omar Hunter and Terron Sanders shared the snaps in the middle of the defense, and none of them seemed able to establish the line of scrimmage. They have great linebackers, and the defensive tackles just need to hold their ground so the linebackers can make plays on runs, and they could not do that Saturday.
