Translation: We are still shitty on defense. Better hope Gus can get the offense going.
Y'all forget that Neiko Torched played his senior year too.And dude is still (!!) with the Chiefs. Saw him get, well, torched on a few plays the other night against the Saints. God bless his heart but he is AWFUL. How desperate must the Chiefs be??
Thought they changed their name to the Chefs?
Great googily moogily
First 3 games: Washington St., Ark. St. and MSU. I suspect what will happen will be a false sense of security in games one and 2, followed by an ugly performance vs MSU.
Play calling will certainly be the top of the list of complaints by by the halftime vs LSU.
You were saying JR?Your gotdanged Nostradamus so far.
I didn't think curious playcalling was in the top ten. FWIW, Gus has made curious play calls as long as he's been around. There are times he inexplicably goes away from what's working just to do it. Times he sticks with something that's not working just to stick with it. Times he kills momentum by making head-scratching personnel substitutions. Times he leaves people on the sidelines for no reason we understand. He even did it with Ben Tate at times. Have the guy sitting there scratching his butt for a quarter and then hey, wait... don't we have a running back better than Mark Ingram around here somewhere? Oh yeah. What quarter is it? Can we put him in now? I think there may be occasions that he outthinks himself and gets so concerned with speed that continuity escapes him.
That offense is high risk high reward in general. So is EJ style of D. Looking up a few replies I also see where JR predicted holland would be the starter because we were THAT bad at LB. Jake has to be damn good at calling the plays and setting the players. Because he is shitastic at execution. I think Frost is just the opposite. Awesome physically. But probably doesn't have the playbook downloaded completely. It's a matter of pick your poison. Yes we are that bad at LB folks.
No one else other than the MLB can call the damn plays?
Good question. Typically no. Would be nice though wouldn't it?One thing is apparent now - we were much less talented and much more ill equipped at several positions than we realized. I think for the most part our coaches are doing what they can with what they have been given. We are not as talented as some of our fans think. LB being the main culprit.

Wasn't just the fans, hoss. Some of the best recruiting classes in AU history. Tuberville's were never that consistently high.
