First Scrimmage

[War Eagle!!!]

Sounds like defense dominated. The next Heisman winner threw two picks including a pick-6.

Been hearing really really good things about Dean. Heard he was a stud. Been kept out last two years with injuries, but players speak highly of him. Really nice size corner with a ton of speed.

Sounds like o-line needs to gel. Starting o-line looks like 5 seniors from what I have read.

    Auburn ran “around 100 plays” in the scrimmage, per Gus Malzahn. The run-pass split was close to 50-50, which is what we heard during the spring scrimmages with offensive coordinator Chip Lindsey.
    The defense “won” the scrimmage against the offense when it came to first team vs. first team. The first-team offense only scored one rushing touchdown, and Darrell Williams said it was because the offense completed a long passing play that should’ve been ruled a sack for Williams.
    Jarrett Stidham threw a pair of interceptions, with one of them returned for a touchdown by Jamel Dean. The sophomore defensive back was one of the stars of the session and lined up at first-team cornerback.
    Stidham and Sean White rotated with the first- and second-team offenses. Malik Willis mostly played with the third team.
    Tray Matthews had the biggest hit of practice on walk-on running back C.J. Tolbert.
    The first-team defensive line won the battle at the line of scrimmage, getting Stidham and White for multiple sacks.
    Auburn held out Kamryn Pettway and Kerryon Johnson from the scrimmage. The Tigers are still searching for the No. 3 running back and want to keep Pettway and Johnson from contact.
    True freshman running back Devan Barrett got 10 carries and a few receptions out of the backfield. He’s still very much in the mix for that No. 3 job.
    Sophomore defensive end Marlon Davidson did not practice. Malzahn expects him to be back at practice soon.
    True freshman linebacker T.D. Moultry and junior defensive tackle Andrew Williams remained out.

From Gus:

Click refresh, will continue to update...

** Scrimmaged in stadium. Started out with live field goal, field goal block. Worked a lot of OL to build depth and choose starters for special teams.

** Did live punt and punt return. Very competitive.

** No. 1 defense had a very good day today in scrimmage. Very good against run.

** Held out veteran running backs. Kam Martin, C.J. Tolbert, Malik Miller got most of reps. Devan Barrett and JaTarvious Whitlow also got reps.

** All three quarterbacks did a solid job at times.

** Got to see where team was from mental toughness standpoint. Hot and humid, had to push through.

** Had a few too many penalties.

** T.D. Moultry and Andrew Williams didn't play today but will be back soon.

** Kamryn Pettway and Kerryon Johnson are both healthy. Wanted to see younger guys today for competition at No. 3 RB.

** Scrimmage went more than 100 plays.

** Sal Cannella is a tough guy, brings an edge. Thats' what has stood out the most about him.

** Austin Golson has played some guard and some tackle. Starting center right now.

** Everybody else scrimmaged other than Pettway and Kerryon.

** Will have a second scrimmage on Saturday.

** Kyle Davis is starting to get back in shape. Very competent player. Got to continue to improve. Like where he's at after missing spring.

** Physical scrimmage. A few guys banged up. Nothing serious.

** Marlon Davidson did not scrimmage. Will miss a couple of days.

** Nick Coe got thrown in fire today.

** Pass rush today was overall pretty good.

** Pretty basic scrimmage. Neither defense or offense did a lot of exotic stuff.

** Next Saturday's scrimmage will be big for quarterbacks, then we'll see where we're at.

*****THAT'S ALL****

I'll be at the scrimmage Saturday.  And, I'll try to get some shower shots for you guys.

From Gus:

How do you know Gus?

[The Six]

Anybody know how many snaps at QB Chandler Cox got?

[War Eagle!!!]

So apparently, the QB who threw the INT's was Sean White, but whatever. It didn't change my opinion that Stidham is going to be the man this year anyway...

It was reported by Bryan Matthews last night on Rivals.

It was reported by Bryan Matthews last night on Rivals.

So did the fake news reporter who reported it was stidham retract it?

From my understanding, the got the info from a player's quote. Apparently, a source said that it was in fact Sean that threw the INT's, and that the player was mistaken.

I don't know. Don't really care. #stidhamforheisman

al.com is standing by it.  Stidham sucks.  Prepare thy anus.

[Snaggletiger]

Just means we've got one hell of a defense.

Glass half full and all that.

My report are saying that SW may not be as healed as we think. So that may translate to Stidham starting and SW coming in if Stidham gets hurt.
This scenario would not bother me at all. If true, SW needs to heal completely. And this may give him time just in case he is needed. I would hate to start him knowing that he definitely will not make it the whole way and then only have Stidham.

This is all conjecture though!

This is the scenario I'm hoping for. I've also heard Willis is playing really well.  Hoping nothing happens where he would have to burn his redshirt.

No offense but your intel is wrong. Sean's shoulder is fine. At this point if he loses the QB battle it's because Stidham beat him.

No info on the interception thing, not that it matters.

My reports are saying that SW may not be as healed as we think anywhere near god-like as Stidham is. So that may translate to Stidham starting and SW coming in if Stidham gets hurt.
This scenario would not bother me at all. If true, SW needs to heal gain more talent completely. And this may give him time just in case he is needed. I would hate to start him knowing that he definitely will not make it the whole way and then only have Stidham is inadequate to Stidham in every way.

This is all conjecture though!

You heard it here first, folks.  Straight from White's personal fluffer.

Latest dot  I am a gay twerker that has no balls!!!!  I also have no idea how to use the quote function to post stories, so I annoy the piss out of others.  I like male genatalia in and around my mouth. piece entitled:

"What to make of Jarrett Stidham's struggles in Auburn's 1st scrimmage."

My comment was more a shot at the media. Hard to believe anything anymore.

So after the dust has settled who threw the Ints?

If its fine, then it healed up wrong.
