Time to Man Up - It's LSU Week

Over/under on how many 3 and outs we have against Lsu? 10?

I think an easier bet would be: Who does JJ complete a pass to first, us or them?

I'll take the over

Without a running Q/B to keep the defense honest, this offense is pretty mediocre.

that is ridiculous. 

look at Gus' stats at Tulsa and at Arkansas.  power running game and a QB that can throw.  almost equally spread in passing and rushing, i assume. 

our expectations of JJ were never a player to run...throw, yes.  Heisman hopeful got clouded in our brain.  unfortunately, the media relations guy we have on payroll sucks.

The problem is the same shitty slant we run to Duke every play.

[AUJarhead]

The problem is the same shootty slant we run to Duke every play.

Which we can't execute at all.

We weren't too shabby with the rag-armed transfer he started that ran a 6.9 40 either.

We played (and beat) the mighty Idaho Vandals that year in another parallel.

Lost to Bama, both Mississippi Schools, Arkansas, Florida, & Tennessee, but at least we got it done in Baton Rouge & Athens that year.

Not enough to make a bowl though. Sounds about right.

but we aren't playing Florida and Tennessee.

but we aren't playing Florida and Tennessee.

So we could lose to Kentucky and TAMU

[jmar]

I say we open up the playbook and party like it's 2008.
Have some fun.

Would that be sort of like losing to the Reds?

Keys to success against the Corndogs.

1. Get all our players healthy and back on the field, especially on the defensive side of the ball.  I heard today that Justin Garrett went out of the game this past weekend.  That means we were playing without Lawson, Matthews, Holsey, Garrett, Countess (kicked out) and Russell (missed most of the second half)

***Anyone know if Countess is back?  You normally serve a 1/2 game suspension for targeting.  Did the second half count?***

2. Open up the playbook.  Put some damn motion in.  Threaten the speed sweep every play.  Hey, we ran a screen Saturday.  Anyone see that?  Worked damn good too.  When's the last time a true screen was run at Auburn?

3. After you put a more wide open game plan in, go through drill after drill after drill with Johnson.

Is he covered?  Yes?  Option 1 is this guy.  Option 2 is run it if you can. Option 3 is throw it at the fat girl in the stands.  Got it? Good.  We've only run this drill 74 times so far today.  Run it again.  Is he covered?  Yes? ....

A good plan but maybe we start even more basic.
"What color is this man's jersey, Jeremy? Good. Now what color jersey are you wearing? Does that make you teammates? Okay, so should you throw them the ball, Jeremy? Great. Now what about this man, what color is his jersey?..."

Yes, his absence in the 2nd half satisfies his suspension penalty.  Countess will be back for LSU.

I think a key to success is a hurricane. Pray for a hurricane. I hope no one gets hurt but Lord, we could use a hurricane headed straight for Baton Rouge.

They have Hurricane Fournette and the over/under is 175.

There is no freaking way he runs 175 on us in the first half.
