I firmly believe that ln our game
with Tennessee this past season we
would have lost had they not run
over one of our tackles with such
ease and consistency on one constant march, thus giving us ample
time to send ln n new tackle and
adjust his position differently for ,a
couple of plays nnd, therefore, stopping their march nt the five-yaline. Teams nre often too cnger to
do things enrly ln thc game and
they expose too much of their importance before it reaps reward. I
do not mean to criticise any team ln
speaking of certain experiences, and
beyond nll means, I would not criticise Tennessee, a team with n reputation nnd record thnt they maintain. At any rate we must be sure
that Tennessee's record ;,iil go on
unblemished for the.' season of 1929
providing no grout amount of injuring should strike their camp during

Tennessee football
Pliers should now be proud to say
that they have never lost an intercollegiate football contest during
their college careers, both freshman
and varsity. That record is not
held by any other institution at the
present date to my knowledge.
Now, to get back to our subject,
quarterbacks
should try by nll
menns to gain fouur or five yards on
first down. If a quartcrback can
call a play that will net this amount
on first down, it will relieve him of
a great deal of strategical worry,
put him ahead, and let him take a
few more chances in securing the
remainder of yardages to net another flrst down again. Remember,
don't try to get a first down with
small yardage to go when you
should punt.
In conference with quarterbacks
during their off seasons we try as
much as possible to get them to do
all the thinking. We tell them very
little but ask them thousands of
questions. There ls so much to be
learned in covering quarterback
play that lecturing would be futile.
They will learn only by their own
thoughts of mental experience. We

only try to help out a little by constantly forcing situations to nrlsc
which they must try to correct be-f- or
they get to their games. We
gcnrally make sure they absolutely
know the numbers of thc following
plays:
1. Strongest
running play they
may use and first down.
2. Short, sure gainers for one or
two nedded yards.
3. Weak side and reverse plays for
ovcrshlftlng defenses.
4. Gamble plays, such as double
reverses, triple passes, fake punts,
etc.
5. Position plays, especially used
before punting.
6. Side line plays to get out of
bounds for better position.
7. Scoring plays near thc goal line,
plays with a punch.
8. Psychology ploys generally used first play of game or first play
after thc recovery of one of opponents' fumbles.
9. Trick plays.
JO Change In starting signals.
11. Sacrifice plays sacrificing one
or two plays for thc success of a
third in a scries or succession of
plays.
Quarterbacks often make the mistake of starting thc signals before
his other team mates nrc ready. See
to lt they have finished waving to
thc girl friend ln the stands and
are nil set for business or, otherwise, your energy ls wnsted. By all
means, never allow the members of
thc team to talk to you; if you do,
you are already on the way to the
sidelines as a leader of your battalion.

Teams should develop the spirit of
"every play for a touchdown." This
sounds ridiculous because we all
know that lt is impossible. However,
without thisr- - perfect execution of
plays would never be carried out to
the letter. Statistics show that in
the big games, evenly played, that
oftentimes only one or two plays are
successfully executed and if in the
proper place one play may mean
victory. The University of Kentucky against Washington and Lee in
1928 successfully executed only two'
successive plays from scrimmage
and this brought victory in itself.
If every member keeps on trying,
sooner or later they may all succeed
simultaneously and this spells perfect execution, which, in turn, may
mean victory.
