John Chavis

And this is a key part of this football game.

We talked to Coach John Chavis, the defensive coordinator for Tennessee.

He said the one part of this football game, my defense must win.

We must dominate the line of scrimmage.

with a

sophomore from Miami, Florida.

How about that changeup for Tennessee and John Chavis? Boy, you don't see this look very often.

Everybody up front.

But, but Pittman was the first coach, I believe, I think he's the first one that where we didn't talk to assistant coaches.

Um, I know under Chad Morris before him, we would talk to John Chavis, um, and, um...

Oh, why am I spacing on his name? I know his name.

I see his face.

Last season, Steve Spurrier and the Florida Gators celebrated a magical season, winning the national title with Heisman Trophy quarterback Danny Werfel.

Now, newcomer Doug Johnson assumes the helm of the fun and gun offense as the Gators attempt to repeat as national champions.

It's an SEC showdown, Tennessee versus Florida, next on CBS Sports.

One last time, Peyton Manning will lead the volunteers into the swamp to do battle, and the Gator faithful 85,000 strong will be waiting.

Florida coach Steve Spurrier said he expects this to be the loudest crowd ever at the Swamp, and if that's any indication, he might be right.

He has an inexperienced quarterback starting today in contrast to Manning.

It'll be the sophomore Doug Johnson, a quarterback for Florida, making his third career start all this season, and he hasn't played in a pressure-packed game like this yet.

Well, Doug Johnson just has to keep from losing the game, avoid the big crucial mistakes.

I don't know if I've – I haven't watched closely enough yet to say if he accomplished that or not.

It almost felt like the adjustments as the season went on were to do kind of with that – John Chavis was the first one to do that four-man level rush, cage rush on Johnny Manziel.

Yes.

And forcing it to – you're going to have to stay in the pocket and be a pocket passer.

Well, they'd be like the first ones on the internet.

They read everything, right? And so as I'm getting on the bus, our old legendary defensive coordinator, John Chavis, he's already on the internet.

Like, he's already reading

stuff.

He is a fine Greek and Hebrew scholar and an eloquent and instructive preacher.

The Reverend John Chavis of Wake County, North Carolina, had the remarkable distinction of being not only a great preacher who preached to white congregations only up to 1883 throughout Wake County, North Carolina, but was the first Negro to open a classical school in the South for white youths.

He was proficient in Greek, Hebrew, and French.

The accomplishments of such men as I have mentioned entitled them, I think, to be called preeminent.

It takes me back to those old defenses.

You think about Coach John Chavis.

That team was fast.

All those guys could run.
