Some general observations.....
Stanford stinks. And if they beat USC....USC has got some pain coming their way.
Jesse Palmer is a fucking clown....totally idiotic comments....."Stanford looks exactly like the 49ers on defense? Christ almighty. Go back to Canada.
I may or may not be drunk.
-
Get outta my head, drunk new girl. I was just logging in to start this.
Stanford does look like shit. They miss ole Fugly as Fuck Luck, don't they?
I would not be surprised if Washington pulls this one out somehow. Which does not bode well for my pick em this week.
And Jesse Palmer dumb ass douchedness is well documented. He couldn't even pay a girl to like him on the Bachelor. And he is not nearly as hot as he thinks he is.
But Reese Davis is still a cutie, bammer or not. His real name is (heehee) Laurece... snerk...
-
Never mind - looks like the Stanford D is gonna keep them in it...
Pick 6... :facepalm:
-
Or not...
-
Our offensive coordinator snuck on to Stanford's sideline.
-
That 13-10 score in the fourth quarter with an underdog playing a top ten team on the underdog's home field is almost like deja vu...
-
SEE!!! See what happens when you have even a modicum of offense and a defense that is fired up!!!!!!!!
:facepalm: :facepalm: :facepalm:
17 - 13 Washington with 3 minutes and change to go in the 4th.
-
Hello? Drunk new girl?
**tap tap**
Is this thing on?
Upset alert pending!!
COME ON OLE MISS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
-
Finally - the X gets it's fantasy: (somewhat) drunken girl on girl action that involves college football.
And no one is here to witness it.
I myself am sober, but wish desperately I was not.
Insomnia is a bitch.

Interception.
Barring a MASSIVE cluster fuckup by UDub, The Tree is chopped down.
17-13 UDub.
Sark the Shark wins.

17 - 13 Washington with 3 minutes and change to go in the 4th.
Also Washington coach realized they were the underdog and hanging around, defense was playing stout, and he decides to go for it on 4th down twice. First 4th and 1 they bust it for a TD after the pick 6, second 4th and 1 they make it and drive results in game winning TD. The second 4th down conversion was at the 6:40 mark in the 4th quarter around mid field, seem familiar?

LSU beat Washington 41-3.
Just sayin'.

Seriously though LSU beat us 12-10 what's your point? We might be better than Stanford? Fuck those west coast hippie smart leftists.

Everyone here seems to think last week's game was more of an indication that LSU sucks and will get their shit pushed inside out when they play bammer, rather than the idea that we might have shown some legitimate improvement.

Tell em' to stop JC Copeland from running his mouth about the opposing team and they won't come in with a serious mad on when they play them next time.
On another note, I watched a good bit of the replay the other night and was looking for what we were doing on D that was different. First, we were getting a nice push in the middle, something that was completely missing from the first 3 games. Second, BVG did actually change things up and disguise a lot more blitzes. I also think some of the personnel changes helped. Joshua Holsey might just be a real playa.

No I agree that we showed improvement, but I also don't think that LSU looked all that great. We also played them at home and it was Mettenbergers first road game in an hostile environment. Regardless of how Washington beat Stanford (another team in another conference) in their own home. Really doesn't prove much to me.
Now if LSU goes out and dismantles Florida or beats bammer, I will agree more with you.

You're forgetting the word of the day: Anomaly.
When there is a trend rather than a one-game aberration then the feeling might change.
I think people were okay with the Clemson loss. Offense struggled some, lots of new faces, new QB with his first start in a strange environ. Some kinks to work out. Damn, that defense looked bad at times but it's gonna get better.
Okay with it even though every orange and blue son of a bitch on the planet expected to knock Clemson off the ball and win the old fashioned way. Okay with it even though nobody in their tiger minds could have imagined Clemson gashing us over and over even without Weedie. Okay because it was a decent opponent.
Every bit of that went right out the window at State. The offense looked worse than it did on the 3-2 day (which we won), as bad or worse than it did during last season's abortion. It created new definitions for inept. The defense was some better in the first half, but Holland was so god awful shitty that his sucktastic play left a bad taste for everyone.
Offense was no better against ULM. Defense better at first, still folded at the end. But why the fuck are we comparing ourselves to a Sunbelt team to measure progress? We beat the War Fucks 34-0 in 2008 with the Franklin debacle. Beat them 52-3 in 2010 and Cam didn't get to run a single time. Didn't even play in the second half.
Dammit Chizad, we shoudn't be digging through acres of dirt hoping to find a sliver of fool's gold in the fourth year of a coaching regime that's allegedly recruited as well as this one has.
I want to be positive, I want this to work out if for no other reason than to silence the yapping fools on the radio. But I have my doubts.
When it's a trend and not just a single game here and there? Talk to me.

I think the bottom line is our D played the way they're capable of. It wasn't dominant but it was more along the lines of what we expect and are used to at AU. I honestly don't think it was an "off night" for LSU or that Mettenturder was phased by the crowd or a road game. If LSU's running game is gashing folks like they do just about every game, he can stand back there on play action and take his pick of stud receivers. He looked like Tom Brady against Washington because every running play was 7 yards...9 yards...6 yards. Our D got the push and penetration they needed to disrupt everything and not let LSU run downhill all night.
Think about it. How many times did we say, "Wow, we got lucky on that one. Mettzenbirder totally missed that guy." Nope, we wouldn't let him get comfortable and our DB's did one of their better jobs in coverage. But, I will say that teams like UF will definitely look at this film (When have we ever said that?) and get an idea of how to slow LSU down.
For LSU, they did exactly what I thought they'd do to our offense. 10 points and about 185 total yards? You'll win 99% or 7/8ths of your games with that.

Do it once? Ok.
Do it consistently? Then we have something to discuss.
For what it's worth, I have many contacts in Arkansas. Their view is the same as ours.
"Lose to Auburn and this season is over. No reason to lose to a team as bad as they are. We'll score 21-31 points, no way they can score that much even if the defense doesn't get on the bus and we have to put the cheerleaders out there."
THAT'S who we are now. And that's what I cannot abide.

Mississippi State was game #1. Game #2 is Arkansaw. We best not lose that game...all I'm saying.

Again agree. Have we become MSU a team that will scare you, but you know at the end of the day you are going to beat?

I think it's more they're overrated, but we improved, slight though it was.

Arkansas is high if they think that of us right now.
Their season is unequivocally more abysmal than ours so far. MSU > Rutgers. They actually lost to ULM, not just got a scare. Barely scraped out a win against Jacksonville State, and got a bigger raping by Bama than either Western Kentucky or FAU, and neither were even close.

Oh, I agree on this. Just breaking down that one game.

The fact that this is a bragging point, is terribly fucking sad.

Not bragging, just saying for apples-to-apples comparison's sake, it beats the alternative. And Arkansas lived the alternative.
That said, ULM will make the rest of their schedule their bitch if their three showings against major conference schools is any indication.

We're in the same boat. As I've said, the two things I want/have to see, are improvement...fight against LSU, and a win against Arkansas. Even though the O didn't do squat, the defense did enough for me to say #1 was accomplished. Lose to Arkansas, and I'll take my blood pressure medication and try to have calm and rational discussions about who the next coach will be at Auburn.

I think they are solidly a "kinda-sorta-good" team.

You don't give them enough credit. They are one the elite kinda-sorta-good teams. And Auburn beat that ass.

Not surprising. Tulane is now 0-4 and only scores on average 8 points a game. On average they allow 42 points a game. I think ULM will lose to Middle TN and also Western Kentucky.

Tulane's offense is ranked 120th out of 120 teams. It is 7 spots worse than Auburn's.
