Well, as for developing depth, we've played a lot of players on the OL, AB, and DB in meaningful minutes. Plus we've played just about every DL we have, 2 QB, and at least 5 LB's. I would say we have around 40 players now that have been in the game in tough situations.

a replay of the Tulane game. They're pumped, we make a couple of mistakes early, and get down by 7-10 points. We pull even in the 2nd qtr and pull away in the second half. At the end of the season, you can often look back and see a pattern that began the first couple of games repeat itself...

Y'all are comparing this year's VT qb to the overall pitiful-in-most-games Logan Thomas. What you have to do is compare this year's VT qb to the beast Logan Thomas that played in our games the last three years. Their qb will have to have a much better game against us than he did against Ohio...

We stomped Elon, Kansas, Syracuse, and several others by large margins the last few years, so your level of happiness with the state of the program must be pretty high.

You want 35-0 in the first half of both games? That would have been the worst that could have happened to us. These guys needed to learn how to come from behind, how to deal with some adversity, that they have to play hard every play. That's what pays dividends down the road and builds...

I think Longestday is closer to the truth. We gift wrapped seven points 90 seconds or so into the game. After that, the score is 38-14 on the road. I was sitting in the corner of the end zone, a much different angle from my seats in BDS, so that may affect my perspective on the game. What I...

Love coming to Nawlins. Have read that there are three places that a Southerner can go and instantly feel at home: New Orleans, Charleston, Richmond. The first two are for sure. Glad to have Tulane back on the schedule. Wish you were in the ACC. Thanks for the classy post.

Didn't really expect the D to be in mid-season form the first game. Was disappointed that some players with a lot of games under their belt had subpar performances. Before I write off the new guys, though, I have to look back at the first games of some of our better players. We saw a lot of...

Great balls of fire, how long are we gonna obsess over one bad play? Twenty post about it in minute detail? The thread's title also includes the word "good" in it. Why not 20 posts on Smelter's great play that gave us a one play TD drive. Can we have some analysis on the execution of each...

As soon as Days fumbles once, the chorus will be wondering why he was moved to B Back.

I posted a couple of weeks back that Tulane will be tough as it is the first game in their stadium, and it will be our first road game. If we don't self destruct in the first third of the game, then I think we get a grip on the game and pull out a win. O'leary said you make your biggest...

So, if the other guy plays 11 in the box and you get a thousand yards passing and decent rushing numbers while you play straight up defense giving up no passing yds but some rushing, that means you suck at the option. Ok! If the game is decided by yds rushing rather than points scored, you are...

On D, we were a busted play away from only giving up 3 points in the first half. Some have forgotten what we have learned about the TO. If you have a qb that can make the reads, you can neutralize a bigger, faster team by grinding out 3 or 4 yds per play. You keep the chains moving and the...

A couple of years back, all the worrying was about OL depth. We may have more depth there now than anytime I can remember since Ross was here. I remember him making a comment WTTE "It's all about the Big Guys and we've got a bevy of them". Good to see the young guys are really panning out and...

Is often as important as what is said. I have heard no contingency plans for DL from CPJ or Roof. When Gailey had similar problems, OL were moved to DL. I still appreciate Wrotto for doing that. So that leaves some scenarios. OL moves are being looked at on the sly? Klock? Devine could be...

But will the higher SAT scores ever trickle down to the fan base? Not likely.

One can only imagine the anguish that goes with imbibing and believing the academic renaissance nonsense while at uga, and then looking for a job after graduation. Probably the only worse pain is the one they feel each year when their MNC certainties encounter reality.

Didn't Whisenhunt actually letter five years in a row? Pretty sure he did.

We are a pessimistic lot. By training and by nature, we seek the flaw, the defect, the weak link. We have to. People die or are maimed if the O ring fails, if the support collapses, if the circuit shorts. While vigorously defending our designs, we desire criticism from those we consider...

Rope a Dope. Everybody is going to try and run it down our throat meaning they abandon their base offense and try to channel Woody Hayes. They will suck at it and their players will hate it. The game will be over in two hours and we have more than enough depth for that type game.
