Is Trelain Maddox out for the year? I remember the coaches were excited about him and he played some early but haven't heard anything since. Had some nice runs when he did play.

Maybe. Does Georgia want to run our style of offense? Can they get someone better? Don't see it as a sure thing thoughI imagine they'd interview him.

As much as we run it up the middle on and-short situations I have been waiting to see some play action off it to a wide open WR. Watched Oregon eat Illinois lunch with it yesterday. Have been wanting to see us run the Philly special for awhile, so very chagrined when VT uses it to manufacture a...

D played generally played well.. VT was able to hit a few explosives and had success at key times with plays designed to punish over-pursuit. Field position was a big problem all game. Shanahan didn't have his best game. Hopefully Birr is getting right. Offensively a very frustrating game...

What matters is we are 5-2. So much to clean up. Don't understand why Pyron isn't allowed to pass. Making teams respect that would make his short yardage package so much more effective. Hope King is ok. At least we won't be getting a big head after ththigame. Nice job by the OL and our running...

Margin super thin between Ws and Ls right now. How much better we can get will be huge. Against this schedule we need to have a lot options for "and short" situations.

Defense Overall great effort against what had been a prolific UL ground game. Two shallow crosses underneath, one for a long TD and another for a long gainer on a critical UL TD drive killed us. One shallow cross was covered but the ref got in the way of the defender. The other was undefended...

Good thing about a tough schedule is if one wins enough then you are a shoo in for the playoff. It's also a really good opportunity for building an identity as team that always plays hard, never quits, and keeps grinding no matter what. Never feels sorry for itself. Controls what it can...

IMO the only phase that was consistently good vs Cuse was special teams. The D was struggling and the O needed to answer, both to keep up on the scoreboard and to give the D some time/cool off Cuse's O. We had several 4 and outs. I do credit Cuse with an innovative scheme to stop our running...

KG your prediction has proven prescient (so far at least, while my prediction looks ****ier each week). Not really fair though because you have a crystal ball and I don't. Your ability to predict the future is well-documented!

It's politics, and yes it's lame. I also question how often you can do this with your team before they realize you are full of it. In this case raging against something your opponent didnt actually say appeared to have his team hyped and playing hard. Deon frequently says things are personal to...

Brown used that to motivate his team. I thought it was clever. Turned the tables on Key and helped him reinforce the image of toughness he wants for his team. I think Brown was being real. I just think he chose to take it that way because it helped him win a football game, and because he felt...

As long as it's not us doing it. IMO toughness is also about keeping it between the whistles, being disciplined, and playing within yourself. Destroy your man and tell him you'll be right back. Maintain focus.

Bold call KG! I'd rather you be right (unless we need them to be good to help us get the playoff!). For me they have too much in the trenches not to at least make 7-5.

My thoughts on the game: 1. Carrier Dome is notoriously tough place to play. Just a very different environment, not necessarily loud or intimidating, but always weird. Noon start could make make it an even stranger environment. We need to be self-motivated and ready to handle adversity. 2. We...

FSU could have beaten us if a thing or two fell the other way. IMO they are not a bad team and could well finish the year ranked--maybe higher than us if we can hold onto our ranking. BOB is a good hire for BC and they returned some nice pieces from a bowl team. Add in a hangover from...

Honestly the preseason media, interviews, etc were so different this year I went INTO the game confident. I don't bet but I really wanted to on this game. It wasn't just confidence in us. I felt the game set up terribly for FSU also. Part of that though was having to play us. I knew we'd come...

About Key tenure so far I say this: 1. So far so good. I don't know what the ceiling is, but there are plenty of reasons for at least cautious optimism. 2. One thing he has succeeded in doing is making us noticeably more physical. We play hard and we never quit. We do appear to be making...

I forgot about that…..I wonder if UNC will have "Money Down" for opposing offenses.

From what I read Davis tore his meniscus 4 games into his senior year. Prior to that was in secondary with Travis Hunter and won State in AAAAAAA at Collins Hill. 4 years to play. If Santucci comes from the same defensive school of thought as Elko then Davis is probably plays with a lot of...
