Put the greatest Razorbacks of all time in their prime on the same team, assemble a veritable Who's Who of Hogs, and it still might not have been enough.

I do get tired of being right.
Scarbinsky starts the "greatest team that ever existed" ball rolling. Every Arkansas All American of all time, all on the field in their prime couldn't hang with this Alabama team.
These motherfuckers would stop Hannibal in his tracks. The 1972 Dolphins would get steamrolled 94-0 by this awesome team.
God I hope they lose. The meltdown will be worth the buildup.
At least Bama doesn't look like a monkey fudgeing a football when they play. :facepalm:
We'll continue to get better, just be patient.
Who would win between the 2012 Alabama team and the all-time team of 1900-2011 Alabama team?The 2012 Alabama team could make a film iinsulting to Mohammed, and Muslims would let it pass..
I think the 2012 Alabama team in a landslide.

We changed every God Damn thing from last year...why the fuck am I the only one to see that. The transition takes time (longer than I expected). We have a slower Kodi Burns starting for his first year at QB. Seriously, everyone needs to step back and think about everything that has changed from last year, before you make a dumbass out of yourself. Give the coaches some time, give the players some time, it's not as easy of a fix as what we think. PATIENCE IS A FUCKIN VIRTUE (you have greasey bammer dancing around here saying we need a change, think about that for a second).What you just don't get is it goes way beyond a scheme change. I don't know if you're incapable of understanding what you're seeing, or you just don't want to. Alot of the problems AU is seeing this year are the same problems from last year. Add to it the fact that Tuberville was fired for less, and wasn't even given a chance to unfuck the situation. Actually, he began to unfuck the situation and was cutoff. I fully believe he could have fixed it.
Don't give up on a team and coaches that're still fighting. And don't turn into the inbred nation and scream for a change at the sign of a little trouble. The team will get better, don't give up on them yet.
Uhhh Can you seriously sell me some of what you are smoking?
You predicted 8-4 or 9-3 at the beginning of the season, where are the 8 wins? Because I see 2 maybe 3 putting us at 4-8. New scheme whatever you want to call it (excuses)is not acceptable in year 4. Hypothetically say we are bad again next year? Then what will you think?
Seriously, you are the only one because you have some serious blinders on to not see there are blatant problems. We aren't getting better, I thought you of all people wouldn't want mediocrity guess I was wrong.

Prowler, I admire your optimism.
I can put on my Auburn glasses, and say, yes, I think in the past two weeks, I've seen signs of improvement on the Offensive Line. I like our running game when it runs north/south, which I saw more of against ULM.
But I'm totally baffled by the lack of fundamentals on the defensive side of things.
You'll never be able to convince me that the lack of fundamentals on defense is anything other than coaching. This time last year, I would have sworn up and down that it was Ted Roof. This year? Not so much.
So what I am hearing is that you are down with being Roofied.

Meanwhile, Ark. keeps the same system in place, and they can't get out of their own way.John L. makes Joe Kines look like a rocket scientist.

I also like that Gene sees what the deficiencies are and goes out and recruits for it. Disruptive playmaking DEs and DTs, monster playmaking LBers, press man CBs, playmaking Safeties.
Chizik has earned the right to have a year where he figures things out, and that's this year with the new coordinating and coaching staff additions. I think it will take a year and a recruiting class for Coach Van Gorder to unfuck things. I also like that Gene sees what the deficiencies are and goes out and recruits for it.

Where are these so called recruits? Why isn't Jeff Whitaker disrupting anything? Why is it that Jake Holland is the suckage he is? Who are these press man CBs and play making safeties, because they're not getting playing time?They're coming in the upcoming class (Coach VanGorder's Defensive class). The question about Whitaker and the other DTs, that's probably coming from Coach Pelton, he's had two years to coach them how to get penetration, use proper technique & use their hands. If there's any change to the coaching staff, he'd be the only one that should pack, IMO. And no, I'm not â€coming aroundâ€, I've felt all along that he could be the weak link...I gave him last season and saw no improvement across the front, aside from Lemonier and this year, it's still the same (minus Lemonier and Ford).

^See, that's how you do it, give the guy a little more time than 3 GAMES to see improvement. Now with VanGorder's attacking style of Defense, as opposed to Roof's read and react, we should've seen A LOT more penetration from the DTs.
That's two fold too, more attention given to the DTs by the OL, means the LBers and DEs will have a little more room to make the plays...better interior play usually means better exterior and LBer play (same for the OL, better OL play usually means better running game and more time for the passing game)

Prowler, I guess what I'm trying to say is, everybody has bought into your schtick for years. Everybody has been buying into what you say about how AU is recruiting straight up studs from top to bottom of the roster since Chizik came on board.
Who the fuck is everybody???I didn't really mean it in a literal sense, but I get your point nonetheless.
I'll say this one last fucking time, make sure you all read it...write it down if you have to, whatever.
Patience is a virtue
The players are still learning the system, on both sides of the ball and the coaches are still learning the players, on both sides of the ball.
â€Why haven't any of the freshmen played yet?†- Because they're behind on learning the system.
Patience is a virtue
DC change, LB Coach change, DB Coach change, OC change & QB Coach change. We have a Shotgun Spread-Option QB playing under center.

All I've heard the past few years (mostly from Prowler) is how the services are overrating Alabama commits, this Auburn commit is actually better than this Alabama commit even though the Auburn guy only has like 3 offers, etc etc. It brings me back to your comparison of Jake Holland and CJ Mosley coming out of high school.
1. Not to be a prick, but Holland wasn't better coming out of high school. He just wasn't. Not even close.
2. If he was better than Mosley, then what the fuck happened when he got to AU? How did Mosley go from worse than Jake Holland to All-SEC and All-American his freshman year? And Holland is still shitty. So that answers the question right there, really.
Prowler, I guess what I'm trying to say is, everybody has bought into your schtick for years. Everybody has been buying into what you say about how AU is recruiting straight up studs from top to bottom of the roster since Chizik came on board. It was always "Well, Chizik just needs to get his recruits in" and everything will be fine. Chizik's recruits are in, and the results have been poor. Some of the same problems that were issues before the new coordinators are STILL a problem now. That goes beyond learning new systems. That's in the territory of poor coaching philosophy. Mainly on defense. You say that VanGorder's defense is a foreign language compared to Roof's. I'm not so sure I buy that, because watching the ULM game, I don't know what was so different from a roof defense. At all, in any aspect.
Go back to fucking goats. Nobody here gives a fiddling fuck on a pontoon boat about motherfucking Cum Jizz Moseley. Fuck him, fuck his mother and father (if he can be located) fuck his offspring (of which there are probably dozens).
Pffft, excuses.
After 4 years, virtues = excuses.
You're too impatient with the schemes. BVG and Loeffler didn't recruit these kids. This is their year one. We need a whole new set of players. These can only run "the spread" and Roofs Shittastic 4-3, and nothing else.How long will we have to wait? What if the Mayans are correct?
How long will we have to wait?By December 21st of this year.
