Title: Can we please play chocolate?
Post by: Kaos on September 04, 2011, 11:17:20 PM
I'm fucking sick to fucking death of fucking van-fucking-nilla. 

Whenever Auburn plays a closer than expected game, whenever the defense (lately) or offense (four years ago and earlier) plays like shit on marmalade toast some drizzly fuck comes along with the "we were playing vanilla" excuse. 

Well fuck me.  I used to like vanilla.  Vanilla coke. Vanilla ice cream. (Va)Nilla wafers.  Vanilla vodka. No more.  I'm done with vanilla.

"playing vanilla" is the most pathetic and ridiculous excuse I've ever heard in my life. 

Fuck vanilla.

Let's play chocolate from now on.

I still like vanilla.  It's my favorite ice cream flavor.

This picture isn't vanilla.  It's not chocolate.  It's a vat of rocky road marshmallow turtle tracks slow churned double fatty horseshit.

Stop a 5 yard 4th down attempt with that?  Hmm... Good luck.

Holy shit.  Is that a hail mary defensive alignment?

I think Malzahn and Roof have a bet going on.

"Hey Gus, I bet your offense can't overcome the worst defense in the world."

We gave up 3 fourth down conversions.  Including one that against our defense, Utah State felt comfortable enough to take a five yard delay of game penalty before they attempted it inside the 10 yard line.  L. O. L.

That's almost comical.

Lulz.  Roof will win this season.

This is chocolate...double fakes with traps and sweeps with lead blockers out front and then working a pass off that same set-up. We have large agile linemen that can get out front (two just chomping at the bit) and I think State should get a healthy dose of this even if we aren't ready to run it because it beats standing around with a thumb up the ass.

 * Our guys were described afterwards as slow and weak by Utah State players.
If we were sandbagging (dear God) it's the greatest ploy of all time.

Being described as "weak and slow" by players from a WAC team concerns me.

Exactly.  Evidently, if true, Utah St. players quit their evaluations at about the 57 minute mark, and turned them in to the reporters just before minute 58.

I am not sure if Utah State players said that or not, I do know that I said it during the game. Auburn DID look slow and weak. They were getting pushed around and beat to the point of attack on both sides of the ball.

I've been out of pocket all weekend, so I haven't had a chance to watch the DVR yet.  However, after reading the proverbial wailing and gnashing of teeth, I have some preliminary thoughts (to be revised upon viewing the game):

1) There is a ton of talent on this team.  Unfortunately, it is all very young and inexperienced.  There will be growing pains.
2) Sounds like we had a bit of NC hangover.  The kids apparently thought that USU couldn't hold the champs' jocks and got punched in the mouth early and often for their hubris.  When necessary, they got their asses in gear and secured the W.
3) Bitch about the basic play calling all you want, but the coaches really shouldn't have to open the playbooks up on this type of game.  A base philosophy on both sides of the ball should have been plenty to blow the doors off USU.  See #2 above.
4) I suspect there will be some sore asses from all the chewing they get this week.  I expect to see a much more inspired team take the field at the god-awful time of 11am this week.

It was in JLee's write up after the game on the bunker.  This is from one of their LB's

Quote
"I felt like we were stronger than them. I felt like we were faster than them, but I felt like they made plays when they needed to, and we did not."

Their coach said something about them being more physical than us.

Not to split hairs but there seems to be a pretty big difference between saying the other team was "slow and weak" and saying "I felt like we were stronger than them. I felt like we were faster than them".

No?

One is smack talk and one is disappointment knowing you let a win slip through your fingers.

Agree, just providing the link and quote.  Unless jmar saw a different quote somewhere else that I haven't seen, that is all I have seen from them.

I infer by your statement and that of some others that the music sucks.

 Seldom does an opponent out of conference claim to be stronger and faster but I took it as it was intended. It was repeated on JOX. and appears to be on the mark unless we were lulling them into a trap. Their team has an opening streak going and our boys did enough to keep it alive. That's all that matters. I didn't write anything about needing to see Yoxall, hammer Ted Roof, criticize Chizik's hat and jacket, or bitch about some fans leaving early.
 
I'm sure their team was hurt in letting this one slip away.
I'm more interested in seeing what Grimes and Malzahn can do from week one to two. I threw out the entire first half as a symptom of being stage struck.

Personally, I'd prefer we play Pralines and Cream.
