Fwiw, the statistics from cfbstats.com say that Citadel rushed for 275 yds in 60 attempts or 4.58 yards/carry and GT rushed for 268 yds in 52 attempts vs uva for 5.15 ypc.

Yes, this team could easily be going into Athens at 10-1, having beaten Duke, Pitt, and USF or 9-2, having lost to 1 of those. We'd be ranked. However, for that to have happened easily, it would've been about our O playing its normal self vs Pitt and Duke and/or our D playing its normal self...

Dang, don't you even GTSwarm?

It's his Spartacus moment.

I suspect we'll see a lot of different player combinations this week. We'll know how CJP is actually thinking starting next week.

Yeah, that's some Bahloney for a primetime schedule

By my calculations, before this past weekend, we were #6 with 3.05 ppd vs pwr5 competition, and they were #7, with 3.04 ppdvp5. Their D was #17, allowing 1.73 ppdvp5 while ours was #51, allowing 2.59 ppdvp5.

Right, but that 2.125 points/drive (17/8) in regulation was still 17% better than the 1.81 ppd which UVA had been allowing power5 teams on average. So, not a marquee showing, but not still value added. By contrast their 3.86 pts/drive (27 pts in 7 drives since I typically give safeties to the...

Yeah, this week will be interesting for the purpose of playing together to look better against good competition. The ECar team we just beat plays UTRGV, our Wednesday opponent, tonight and Prairie View, our Friday opponent, on Wednesday. UTRGV beat PrVw last week 70 to 57. So, we should have...

I could be wrong, but I suspect that he was using "confidence" as the intangible between making and missing an open shot rather than between taking or not taking the open shot. What UT was doing affected our play so that even when our guys had open looks, they missed them.

We also played Bronco's BYU that year.

SEC will lose 4 to the ACC this weekend.

Do you know what we called sweet tea in my house growing up? ... Tea! The world is worse when hard working, God fearing, southern Americans can't assume that their ice tea will be sweet and grits will come with breakfast and some sort of greens--collard, turnip, or in a pinch spinach--will...

You two are two of my favorite contributors to this forum, but you're wrong. UVA did not have total disregard for our passing game imo. They trusted their dbs and their pass rush. We did not have wide open receivers and a QB with time to throw because safeties and lbs were over pursuing...

Absolutely agree about Corchiani as a gritty pest defender. I just erased my post on why I depart from the comparison, realizing, embarassingly, that Chris and Mugsy and Bobby and Spud and Mark and Kenny are more alive in my thinking about ACC pt guards than anybody in the last 25 years.

Interesting comparing Alvarado to Corciani. I remember Chris differently but would rather see him in Jose than Hurley like I do now.

This is part of it. The other is this, imo. When you have great athletes at every position, you can design your scheme for playmakers to make plays. However, if you want to run a scheme like that you need talent at every position. What CPJ has with our O, and what I think CNW is installing...

You ignored the data to share your feelings. You are right that our offense did not do as well against d'oh U and uva. However, you have to compare how we did compared to how other teams have done. That's what my data did which you ignored. I appreciate your passion if not your opinion.

No such thing as eligible tackles. You could line up WRs in tight like that and use them as edge blockers on zone running plays ... wait a second ...

WoW
