and you can go back and watch film of how physical the teams were and you can add Phillip Fulmer to that.

Discussion:

In todays game you think they have gone away from physical play and now its just a speed game? I say where it was posted that Saban said defense dont win National Championships anymore.

Is CJP trying to built physical football that is in the past or is he building a physical team with speed now?

I look at the NBA how it has moved over the years. I remember in the 70-80's how physical it was in the paint and now you have centers sitting on the 3 point line instead of inside. There is no defense played in the NBA anymore its all street ball now imo.

I posted this thread because I have been going back and watching TN games in the 80's and damn it certainly appears they would take your head off. Now on that point I do think society as a whole in regarding sports has become somewhat pussified and soft. Is this the reason that it is not as physical as once it was?

Just a boring off week to change it up a little.
