Mentor vs. Mentor

[MahxFahn]

Tim Tebow and Urban Meyer on one sideline.
Dan Mullen on the other.
It's going to look and feel kind of weird, kind of surreal, Saturday night in Starkville, Miss. Maybe even a little awkward.
"It's going to be strange to see him on the other sideline," Tebow said Monday.
Tebow, Meyer and Mullen have shared quite a history together, including winning two national championships at Florida. And Meyer and Mullen go back much further than their Florida days. The two started working together at Notre Dame in 1999, and Meyer gave Mullen his first full-time coaching job when Meyer became the head coach at Bowling Green in 2001.
The Mullen-Meyer team was a huge success. It stayed together for 10 years at four different schools (Notre Dame, Bowling Green, Utah and Florida).
But the team broke up last December, when Mullen, Meyer's offensive coordinator, took the head coaching job at Mississippi State.
Now, it's Mullen vs. his mentor.
And Tebow vs. his mentor.

It'll be tough playing a coach that pretty much knows our playbook. Think of the '99-'00 Tampa Bay Buccaneers vs. the Oakland Raiders with Jon Gruden.

At least we're relying on our defense to win games and Mullen's expertise there isn't anywhere near what it is for our offense.

Our defense needs to win this game at least they know that offense because they practice against every time. I think Mullen will highlight the weakness to his D.
