Week 5: Will We Come Alive?

[jmar]

Correct. However, is anyone else tired of the fact that it takes this staff/team 4 or 5 games to get it together?

The lynchpin is always LSU. If we can throw that one away annually as an offering to the football gods we win 8 games.

And let me tell ya...jmar looked ahead at their roster and there's no way we beat those swamp rats for at least two more seasons, so we have that going for us.

What does it say about the powers that be at AU, that this was about the 5th time we got trolled by Arkansas?  Granted, it was more likely Jimmy Sexton, or whoever was repping Tuberville.  But we always seem to be scared of losing our corch to the Hawgs.  The next coach we hire better not have even driven through that state.

If we got trolled it was by his agent. Not Arkansas. Their interest in him was sincere.

For sure.

I was tired of that about 4 years ago. I'm also tired of the fact that once a RB is found to be the "bell cow", we run him into an early retirement.

Kj did have a great first game with the lions.

Check out the above passing graphic that any 49 million dollar genius ought to be able to access for both defense and offense. Jeez they even have this for run games. Wouldn't surprise me if they even have combinations of both. Might even aid anyone interested in making...halftime adjustments. Holy shit there's an idea.

It's not rocket surgery. And there are multiple variations of this available.

Let's see...have we run a jet sweep or a wheel route?  Why no!


Stidham completed 11 in a row this past Saturday and the "lost" part as you say is answering the criticism of holding the ball too long by RUNNING.
This porous offensive line is going to continue to be our undoing as long as GusChip keep calling these failing dive plays behind no real push.

*Also feel (among others) that Martin got the start against Arky almost as an appeasment.

Jmar wants us to use the pass (60/40) to set up the run until we can get a grasp of who, what play and/or what side is our strongest.

Should be playing to our strengths, not our weaknesses. We barely have receivers running patterns beyond linebackers. Spread the ball around, watch the run game improve.

I swear jmar, I don’t know what it is. But you make more sense as of late than I’ve ever known you to.

Have they changed cocktail hour at the nursing home, by chance?

Had to adjust intake due to some temporary health issues. 

Gus just needs to spray the ball around to the Jimmys and Joe's and let the rest work itself out. It's that simple.
This is the overall weakest line we've had since Cam left. Needs to play to our strengths which is speed...not power. Jmar just wants the dive plays to be fewer and more timely instead of mere filler for the fucking lazy, uncreative shithead calling our plays. Welcome back WT.

I take it you don’t understand the true importance of running 42 screens a game!

Yeah to the point that it becomes like a slow developing run play doomed for failure when overused...in addition to the likelihood of fumbles and penalties that follow. 

[djsimp]

1st qtr against SM with lots of penalties. Most of which on the OL.

[The Six]

Fire everyone and require them to retrieve buyout monies from the lukewarm asshole of a dead alpaca.

[jmar]

It's so fucking miserably bad that Rod and Stan BOTH are referring to So. Miss as Washington.


So now we've insulted Thor. 
Wonderful.

[chityeah]

No!

[The Prowler]

We look like a pile of dog shit.

Defense & Special Teams will need to continue carrying the load for the rest of the season. If the offense continues to look like they do, 8-4 season is the ceiling.

[chityeah]

Al Borges could kill everybody with this offense.

[Come Honor Face]

What the fuck was that?

[CCTAU]

To answer the opening post, no, we will not!

[The Prowler]

Boobie went out with an injury.

K-Mart runs for 90 yards. But, we will need someone like Boobie at RB, maybe someone bigger, like Malik Miller. K-Mart is not a pass protector...lol, smh.

When K-Mart isn't getting thrown around, atleast Shaun Shivers is there to spell him, like those couple of times he got completely mauled in the backfield...

When that fails, atleast we have the unshakable, ice water in his veins Jarrett Stid...I can't finish that with a straight face.

[The Prowler]

So, you're telling me there's a chance that the offense will catch fire this upcoming game? YES!!!!!!!!

[GH2001]

That’s a 49 million dollar bus bucko
