  1. How good are we?

    I agree with all of this but I think Notre Dame is out. Their ship sailed with that last loss to Miami. If Miami wins or is close to Clemson, they might get in. If UGA loses to either Tech or in the SEC championship game they are out. I think that based on the teams I have seen personally I...
  2. COFH Set for 12pm on ABC

    Yep. They whipped UGA and Gus does more cute, clever stuff with the spread option than just about anybody. Sometimes a little too clever for his own good but Auburn finally has a quarterback that makes good reads and quick decisions needed to make Gus' offense shine. Combined with a very good...
  3. COFH Set for 12pm on ABC

    My eye test tells me that UGA has a better defense due to superior talent. But that's just me. The experts may beg to differ. One thing is for sure, the Auburn defense at least the two times I saw them is better than either one of them.
  4. In this thread: I face facts about Ted Roof

    So he did. I happen to think that a lot of the improvement on defense is due to the experience we have in the secondary. I mean look at the Austins they have to have been playing football on the Flats for the past decade it seems like. Simmons has been here forever. Virginia Tech ran plays...
  5. In this thread: I face facts about Ted Roof

    OK. Now I know. Cover 4 is it? Somewhere I heard 4 quarters or something to that effect. So it was Coach Narduzzi's brain child. Cool story but I still hate it.
  6. Justin Fuente gave us that one!

    Could be. You do understand that my post was TIC
  7. In this thread: I face facts about Ted Roof

    For the life of me, and I would like the resident defense gurus such as yourself or "Ballin" to explain why the infatuation with that blasted quarters zone coverage? Seems like Ohio State pioneered this a few years ago but I might be wrong. I much prefer seeing those safeties coming up and...
  8. Justin Fuente gave us that one!

    Just about form on defending a pass. Now what is this about Kerr being a 2 star? Can't you just see Cam telling him: "Don't you know who I am? You are messing with a first rounder son"
  9. Duke Game

    I have only been once. It's sort of like a sitting on a lonely park bench feeding the pigeons. A peculiar atmosphere for a college football game to be sure. But don't underestimate this team. They are well coached and capable of beating us if we fool around. They have done it before and...
  10. In this thread: I face facts about Ted Roof

    He may not scare you but he has the attention of Coach Johnson I can promise you that. He's good, very good. He and Venables are the best in the ACC. Talent notwithstanding. Venables does look a little goofy kind of wide eyed fanatic look to him.
  11. Justin Fuente gave us that one!

    I agree with you to a great extent. I feel he should have gotten what should have been a rather easy first down but I can kind of understand his reasoning. In his press conference, he just did not have confidence in his running game to pound it down and wanted to take his shot then and there...
  12. Justin Fuente gave us that one!

    If needed, I will give my highest recommendation to any team that needs a coach like Coach Venables just so long as it is out of the ACC.
  13. In this thread: I face facts about Ted Roof

    What we need to do is clone Coach Foster at VT and Freaky Friday like mix him up with Coach Roof and then boy howdy we would be cooking. No, seriously, I am with you I would rather blitz more, scheme better, get after the quarterback but the results speak for themselves. He is clearly the best...
  14. Justin Fuente gave us that one!

    Ole Miss, Tennessee, South Dakota, Hawaii, anywhere but the ACC so we don't have to face him anymore. While you are at it see if you can find a spot for Venables. It is time he was moving on as well.
  15. Justin Fuente gave us that one!

    He is a good coach. He clearly explained in the post game conference that he felt like GT was stacking the LOS and there was little choice but to go for it on both downs. Personally, I would have run on third down. Heavens, if you can't get a first down running the ball with McMillan your...
  16. The day after

    Well, the whole situation with Georgia being number 1 for one week reminds me of when Florida was number 1 for the first time in school history. It was in the mid 1980s with the team dubbed the "Great Wall of Florida" that have John L Williams at running back and Kerwin Bell at quarterback and...
  17. How good are we?

    Yes he did along with some really intimidating defensive players that just did not give opposing offenses much to work with. Throw a pass down the middle and likely as not Swilling would out muscle your receiver and take it away. Running into the teeth of a defense with Jerrelle Williams and...
  18. How good are we?

    I was not keeping up with it as much then as I lived in North Carolina but I was pretty upset until my father reminded me that he was coaching Bill Curry's players and that Coach Curry left for Alabama supposedly to "have an opportunity to win a national championship" but maybe just maybe he...
  19. Interview Virginia Tech Postgame Press Conference

    Impressed with Coach Feutes (spelling?) press conference. He was articulate and brutally honest. He felt like they were facing a situation where they could not run up and down the field with the ball so they had to take their chances on third and one and fourth and one in the fourth quarter...

    I will say this for Notre Dame: That is one team that I will root for MR and his gang of bling wearing thugs to beat. Well, maybe UGA. Wouldn't it be something to watch Miami play UGA in a bowl? It would be like one big gang rumble.
