Aug 28, 2014 2:56 PM - Eric: Almost gametime!
Aug 28, 2014 2:56 PM - daBuzz: Ready for some college football
Aug 28, 2014 2:57 PM - Eric: Can't wait, finally it starts tonight. Some actual real games.
Aug 28, 2014 2:57 PM - daBuzz: That SC vs Texas A&M game is a good one to start the season with
Aug 28, 2014 2:58 PM - daBuzz: although I think SC is going to spank them pretty well
Aug 28, 2014 2:59 PM - Eric: Think so? THat's the popular opinion...I am wondering how that USCe secondary holds up...They are so young.
Aug 28, 2014 2:59 PM - GTBillyJosh: How is Whitehead doing? I remember hearing a lot about him over the summer, but not much lately.
Aug 28, 2014 2:59 PM - daBuzz: i think SC just has the big advantage because of the # of snaps their QB had to take last year when Shaw was hurt
Aug 28, 2014 3:00 PM - daBuzz: Whitehead is struggling a bit. needs to hit the weight room and get bigger. has good speed and push but gets manhandled by the bigger OT's
Aug 28, 2014 3:01 PM - Eric: Whitehead is fine, as Dabuzz mentioned he needs weight. Pretty much what he is a edge rusher. That will be his role next year...not sure what you mean about over the Summer? He wasnt here then.
Aug 28, 2014 3:01 PM - GTBillyJosh: I mean just chatter about how he can help us.
Aug 28, 2014 3:02 PM - Eric: Well he isn't playing this year, so that is why he isnt being talked about as much.
Aug 28, 2014 3:02 PM - daBuzz: he can't play this year. i was told that "even if he was eligible, he would probably be on a 3rd down pass rusher this year. He needs some biscuits in him"
Aug 28, 2014 3:03 PM - daBuzz: still would have been nice to have him. DL depth has me concerned
Aug 28, 2014 3:03 PM - Eric: agree with @daBuzz...he is strictly a pass rusher at this point...we could still really use him this year as I think he will be our best edge rusher. To be realistic Whitehead isn't going to get that big...he doesnt have the frame for a lot of weight.
Aug 28, 2014 3:04 PM - GTBillyJosh: Thanks guys, I missed the fact he couldn't play this year
Aug 28, 2014 3:04 PM - Eric: Yeah I am worried with the end's...Have to get the young guys to grow up.
Aug 28, 2014 3:04 PM - daBuzz: yeah but the coaches want him to get closer to the 235-240 range
Aug 28, 2014 3:04 PM - Eric: @GTBillyJosh...Yeah, sadly.
Aug 28, 2014 3:04 PM - daBuzz: i think he weighed in @ like 210'ish
Aug 28, 2014 3:04 PM - Eric: I don't see that happening.
Aug 28, 2014 3:05 PM - daBuzz: no idea myself. just saying what i was told
Aug 28, 2014 3:05 PM - Eric: and looks like you were right on Step Durham @daBuzz
Aug 28, 2014 3:06 PM - GTJoeBrew: Does anyone get a different feeling about this year than last year? I feel like the ceiling for our O is really high this year!
Aug 28, 2014 3:06 PM - daBuzz: it's all good...i got my info straight from a coach
Aug 28, 2014 3:06 PM - Eric: Not sure if you have seen Whitehead in person, his hips are thin.
Aug 28, 2014 3:06 PM - Longestday: what was the infomation on step?
Aug 28, 2014 3:06 PM - Eric: So did I...However I talked to a closer coach to the DBs and looks like he will play.
Aug 28, 2014 3:06 PM - GTJoeBrew: Doesn't have child bearing hips? lol
Aug 28, 2014 3:07 PM - daBuzz: the hips are often indicators as to how much weight a frame can take is what Eric means
Aug 28, 2014 3:07 PM - Longestday: Step will play CB this year?
Aug 28, 2014 3:07 PM - Eric: I do have a diffrent feeling, but who knows if that counts for anything...I do feel we can have a good O. We have to play clean to win though.
Aug 28, 2014 3:07 PM - stech81: Eric any word that maybe they will look to move Marcus Allen back to offense next year or is he too big now?
Aug 28, 2014 3:08 PM - daBuzz: yeah, Durham is gonna dress and likely play this year
Aug 28, 2014 3:08 PM - Longestday: The O will be much better, but the D will be a little worse?
Aug 28, 2014 3:08 PM - Eric: Yeah, Looks like Step is 2nd string now according to the DB Coach.
Aug 28, 2014 3:08 PM - Longestday: Do you think the DB will be better as a group this year?
Aug 28, 2014 3:08 PM - GTBillyJosh: Wow, some young guys in the secondary. Lance at Nickel, Lawrence and Step at CB. Only one Senior. Looks good for the future.
Aug 28, 2014 3:09 PM - daBuzz: I was told that the secondary is the position on our team where we have the most "possible NFL talent". coaches think they have the ability to be very good but afraid it may not appear that way because our pass rush may be suspect
Aug 28, 2014 3:10 PM - Eric: We have talent in the secondary no doubt about that..but they cant last forever. Gotta get a rush.
Aug 28, 2014 3:11 PM - Eric: I havent heard anything on Allen...besides hes looking good on ST's.
Aug 28, 2014 3:11 PM - daBuzz: i'm also very worried about the ability of our starting QB to stay uninjured. i was told to expect at least one or two opposing defensive coaches to "jump the dive and the pitch to force him to keep the ball and then see if they can hit him hard enough to get him out of the game"
Aug 28, 2014 3:11 PM - Eric: Austin twins are gunners fwiw.
Aug 28, 2014 3:12 PM - Eric: Have to catch him first
Aug 28, 2014 3:12 PM - daBuzz: i replied "but he's pretty fast they may not be able to catch him...that might backfire". He said, "It probably will once or twice, but all it takes is one good pop to get him out of the game because he's not a big guy"
Aug 28, 2014 3:12 PM - daBuzz: so hearing that...i'm worried too LOL
Aug 28, 2014 3:12 PM - daBuzz: he also said, "You DO know they have fast people too on some of these other teams, right?"
Aug 28, 2014 3:12 PM - GTBillyJosh: Looks like Jordan will have to be ready
Aug 28, 2014 3:13 PM - Eric: They have worked with Thomas on how to take a hit..maybe i am too optimistic in him but I am not worried about him.
Aug 28, 2014 3:13 PM - daBuzz: who knows? just one guys's opinion. It just worries me that he was out of the spring game and then pulled up lame in the first public scrimmage
Aug 28, 2014 3:13 PM - Eric: Good thing in Jordan is he is way ahead of where other Fr have been at this point.
Aug 28, 2014 3:14 PM - stech81: Has anyone said if we plan to rotate the first and second team offense line as a group to keep them fresh.
Aug 28, 2014 3:14 PM - daBuzz: they will not rotate the line as a unit
Aug 28, 2014 3:14 PM - Eric: CPJ said in the radio show we will have two O lines for Saturday...so they real rotate the units.
Aug 28, 2014 3:14 PM - daBuzz: yeah but we wont do that against teams that are good
Aug 28, 2014 3:14 PM - Eric: correct...just the first game.
Aug 28, 2014 3:15 PM - Eric: I was told Errin Joe is pushing Chamberlain...which worries me.
Aug 28, 2014 3:15 PM - stech81: why
Aug 28, 2014 3:15 PM - daBuzz: same guy who told me about the QB said of Byerly, "He's one tough f**ker. If one of his arms is still hanging on by at least a thread, he's going back out there."
Aug 28, 2014 3:15 PM - Eric: I am not a big fan of Joe.
Aug 28, 2014 3:16 PM - redmule: I might be careful what I wish for if I'm an opposing DL. Byerly might hurt some of their boys if he gets in.
Aug 28, 2014 3:16 PM - daBuzz: Errin Joe is "calorically challenged"
Aug 28, 2014 3:16 PM - stech81: I'm not of Chamberlain after last yeat
Aug 28, 2014 3:16 PM - daBuzz: great kid though. lot of fun to be around. players love him
Aug 28, 2014 3:16 PM - Eric: He isnt in good shape.
Aug 28, 2014 3:17 PM - Eric: I would take Chamberlain in a heartbeat over Joe.
Aug 28, 2014 3:17 PM - daBuzz: i'd rather have Joe in short yardage situation though
Aug 28, 2014 3:17 PM - Eric: Joe is a funny dude....jokester. He is a good kid and at least he is taking advantage of the academic side of Tech.
Aug 28, 2014 3:18 PM - daBuzz: yeah thats what i heard. i was told "class clown"
Aug 28, 2014 3:18 PM - daBuzz: seemed to be that way when i met him a few times too

 

[SwarmBot]

Aug 28, 2014 at 3:18 PM - Eric: Coaches love Chris Griffin...Sewak says he was the biggest surprise of the camp on the OL.
Aug 28, 2014 at 3:19 PM - stech81: So they don't plan to try Brigham at Tackle
Aug 28, 2014 at 3:19 PM - daBuzz: i heard same about Griffin
Aug 28, 2014 at 3:20 PM - daBuzz: said "his nuts have dropped"
Aug 28, 2014 at 3:20 PM - redmule: Will we see Milton on the corner blitz to generate pressure
Aug 28, 2014 at 3:20 PM - Eric: Brigham has a concussion.
Aug 28, 2014 at 3:20 PM - GTBillyJosh: Why are the Nickels (Demond, Dominique) listed at Sam LB on the depth chart?
Aug 28, 2014 at 3:20 PM - daBuzz: isnt Milton suspended for first 2 games?
Aug 28, 2014 at 3:20 PM - stech81: That's why O'Reilly has moved ?
Aug 28, 2014 at 3:20 PM - AE 87: I like all of our kids, but I wonder if the yards Chamberlain gives away with false starts are worth what else he brings to the table. He's made me forget Gilbert
Aug 28, 2014 at 3:21 PM - daBuzz: lol AE87, thanks for that. i had almost forgotten him too but now you reminded me
Aug 28, 2014 at 3:21 PM - GTJoeBrew: I really hope Chamberlain doesn't continue that...
Aug 28, 2014 at 3:22 PM - redmule: How much range has Butker added to his kicks?
Aug 28, 2014 at 3:22 PM - daBuzz: no idea. havent heard.
Aug 28, 2014 at 3:23 PM - daBuzz: he already had a strong leg; i'd just like for him to focus on accuracy over 40 yards
Aug 28, 2014 at 3:23 PM - redmule: Seemed like the touchbacks tailed off some late in the season.
Aug 28, 2014 at 3:24 PM - daBuzz: they always will when you play better teams. teams with good returners will bring the ball out of the end zone. very hard to consistently get the ball through the end zone.
Aug 28, 2014 at 3:25 PM - Eric: They are just listing the Nickel as the Sam lb
Aug 28, 2014 at 3:25 PM - daBuzz: also, some coaches prefer you kick to a corner with accuracy over just drilling it down the middle. if you dont get it out of the end zone down the middle, the return can go to either side. if you put it down one side, it makes containment easier
Aug 28, 2014 at 3:25 PM - redmule: What's Marcordes status?
Aug 28, 2014 at 3:26 PM - Eric: Injury list will be out today per a release yesterday, fwiw.
Aug 28, 2014 at 3:27 PM - redmule: Are the coaches still as high on Marcordes as they were after Spring practice?
Aug 28, 2014 at 3:27 PM - daBuzz: coaches LOVE Marcodes
Aug 28, 2014 at 3:27 PM - daBuzz: think he has a very high ceiling
Aug 28, 2014 at 3:28 PM - Eric: Yes. They think he has a shot at the NFL...wait till you see him. His body click in the off-season...that was the reason I picked him as my breakout player back in the Spring.
Aug 28, 2014 at 3:28 PM - stech81: Is this just my imagination or is this the best mood CPJ has been after fall practice ?
Aug 28, 2014 at 3:28 PM - daBuzz: yeah he passes the "looks good getting off the bus" test.
Aug 28, 2014 at 3:29 PM - redmule: My body never clicks, it just creaks.
Aug 28, 2014 at 3:29 PM - GTJoeBrew: He was insane in the spring game. Can't wait till he gets back on the field.
Aug 28, 2014 at 3:29 PM - daBuzz: nah, he was in good mood pretty much all the time. just seems bit more to some this year but CPJ is a fairly laid back guy.
Aug 28, 2014 at 3:29 PM - Eric: Coaches hit a gem in Marcordes...I personally didnt see it his first year on campus. But that frame...wow.
Aug 28, 2014 at 3:30 PM - Eric: Davis will start at LB this week.
Aug 28, 2014 at 3:30 PM - redmule: A hoss (or mule, ha) in the middle is as good as one at DL. Maybe he's the missing piece.
Aug 28, 2014 at 3:30 PM - daBuzz: and FWIW, I was also told that the coaches think that Klock may eventually overtake both Chamberlain & Joe once he gets everything down. Been very pleased with him
Aug 28, 2014 at 3:31 PM - daBuzz: said it may happen by mid season
Aug 28, 2014 at 3:31 PM - Eric: PJ Davis nickname is "40cal" lol.
Aug 28, 2014 at 3:31 PM - Eric: for the way he hits
Aug 28, 2014 at 3:31 PM - redmule: We would be set at OT for a while if that happens.
Aug 28, 2014 at 3:32 PM - daBuzz: hah...i hadn't heard that. I like it!
Aug 28, 2014 at 3:32 PM - Eric: There is a reason Klock isnt redshirt this year...if he doesnt take the job this year he will over the Spring next year.
Aug 28, 2014 at 3:33 PM - Eric: Yeah thats a clever one.
Aug 28, 2014 at 3:33 PM - daBuzz: same with the twins, IMO. I had two different coaches tell me that Lawrence Austin was at least the 2nd best corner on the team right now and was pushing DJ White to be the best on the team
Aug 28, 2014 at 3:34 PM - daBuzz: one of them said "those little dudes are like water bugs. They're all over the place"
Aug 28, 2014 at 3:34 PM - Northeast Stinger: Wow. I thought he was good but did not know that good.
Aug 28, 2014 at 3:35 PM - Northeast Stinger: What is the mood of the team? Do they think this can be a special year if they really focus?
Aug 28, 2014 at 3:35 PM - Eric: Yeah CPJ said that Milton and Law Austin were fighting for the starting job.
Aug 28, 2014 at 3:35 PM - daBuzz: remember though that Lynn Griffin hasn't been getting many reps with the 1's and 2's because of the 2 game suspension. The coaches plan to make him start back at the beginning and beat all of the guys out above him. But I think they all believe he'll get back in the 2-deep pretty quickly because he's good serious "make up " speed
Aug 28, 2014 at 3:35 PM - Bruce Wayne: Just read thru this, there was a good article on Butker that I believe said his range was 56 yards for FGs now.
Aug 28, 2014 at 3:36 PM - Eric: They are going to be on the field all the time...all the special teams pretty much.
Aug 28, 2014 at 3:36 PM - DuckGT: Should we be worried about other big schools still showing interest in Lands-Davis? Do you think he will stick with his commitment?
Aug 28, 2014 at 3:36 PM - stech81: Do they want Klock to add any weight
Aug 28, 2014 at 3:36 PM - daBuzz: yep. all of the coaches love the twins. said they had great football instincts. FWIW, they said the same about Searcy. And said there was "3 pretty damn good football players on one HS football team"
Aug 28, 2014 at 3:37 PM - Eric: We will have to recruit Lands-Davis to NSD, we have always knew this. Schools will be calling all the way till NSD. The incident that happened with him recently may actually help us with him.
Aug 28, 2014 at 3:37 PM - redmule: Who recruited the Austins?
Aug 28, 2014 at 3:37 PM - daBuzz: I think it was Andy who recruited them
Aug 28, 2014 at 3:37 PM - daBuzz: McCollum that is
Aug 28, 2014 at 3:37 PM - Eric: CAM.
Aug 28, 2014 at 3:38 PM - daBuzz: He fits in well down in south Georgia. Has that slow southern drawl. He's a hell of a recruiter
Aug 28, 2014 at 3:39 PM - redmule: Hope the Austins got good by trying to cover Searcy.
Aug 28, 2014 at 3:39 PM - DuckGT: What % would you give the chance of us playing Tennesse in 2017?
Aug 28, 2014 at 3:39 PM - GTBillyJosh: So is CB order: White, Milton, Lawrence, Step, Griffin (working his way back up)? Assuming Demond, Noble, Austin is the order at NB.
Aug 28, 2014 at 3:39 PM - Eric: It was Roof who got to decide if we wanted to offer or not after seeing them in person...he decided pretty quick. Landing them gave us Searcy...We got lucky to lock them up.
Aug 28, 2014 at 3:39 PM - daBuzz: Tenn game is pretty much a done deal. getting wording & details worked out with lawyers right now
Aug 28, 2014 at 3:39 PM - Eric: Somewhere around 90%.
Aug 28, 2014 at 3:39 PM - daBuzz: and FWIW, I don't like us playing in that game
Aug 28, 2014 at 3:40 PM - Eric: Tennessee is going to be hell to deal with soon.
Aug 28, 2014 at 3:40 PM - daBuzz: i want to play Tenn but it would be just like the ACC to stick us playing VT on Saturday after playing Tennessee on monday
Aug 28, 2014 at 3:40 PM - redmule: Friend in Knoxville says UT has a coach now. Wish we could have caught them the last few years.
Aug 28, 2014 at 3:41 PM - Eric: Part of the deal of us taking that game in week 1 in a easy foe in week 2.
Aug 28, 2014 at 3:41 PM - DaddyBill: So when is the definite decision to be made on redshirts?

 

[SwarmBot]

Aug 28, 2014 at 3:41 PM - daBuzz: yeah i know we SAID that but i was also told that the ACC isn't bound by that decision
Aug 28, 2014 at 3:41 PM - GTJoeBrew: Is it going to be the labor day game? Man, I hope we end up with an open week after that.. Would it surprise you much to see a Thursday game after?
Aug 28, 2014 at 3:41 PM - daBuzz: @DaddyBill, that won't happen until about game 4 or 5 for sure
Aug 28, 2014 at 3:41 PM - Eric: ACC isnt bound by it, but they will do it. Confident in that.
Aug 28, 2014 at 3:42 PM - daBuzz: i hope so. people i talked to weren't as confident of that as you are
Aug 28, 2014 at 3:42 PM - DaddyBill: so the guys on the "scout team" now still have a chance?
Aug 28, 2014 at 3:42 PM - Bruce Wayne: I dont mind UT to start the season but I also would like to stop playing UGA the last game every year, I wish it would be moved around.
Aug 28, 2014 at 3:42 PM - scotts: Will they redshirt Step?
Aug 28, 2014 at 3:42 PM - Eric: A few kids like Leggett decision wont be made for awhile.
Aug 28, 2014 at 3:42 PM - daBuzz: somewhat. if they're on scout team now, it's likely they're going to redshirt. but injuries can change things
Aug 28, 2014 at 3:43 PM - daBuzz: yeah, Leggett is the one i was thinking of. they really wanted him to play but now that Days is playing pretty well there, they're thinking that CJ may redshirt this year
Aug 28, 2014 at 3:43 PM - DaddyBill: never know when you have to be :"the next man up"?
Aug 28, 2014 at 3:43 PM - Eric: Step is expected to play...if you read back we covered this earlier if you want to read more info on it.
Aug 28, 2014 at 3:43 PM - Eric: Yeah I want him to play this year though.
Aug 28, 2014 at 3:43 PM - redmule: Tell me something good about Gotsis. Gonna eat lightning and crap thunder?
Aug 28, 2014 at 3:43 PM - daBuzz: but all of that can change quickly if one of the guys they were counting on goes down. more likely to burn a redshirt if an injury happens early in the year than later
Aug 28, 2014 at 3:43 PM - daBuzz: me too Eric
Aug 28, 2014 at 3:44 PM - Eric: IMO we need Leggett some snaps this year...I dont like breaking in ALL new backs in 2015 with the schedule we have.
Aug 28, 2014 at 3:44 PM - daBuzz: Coaches like Gotsis. Said he's consistent and always is in the right place. Personally, I'm not that worried about him leaving early for the NFL because I don't know how well he projects as an early round draft choice
Aug 28, 2014 at 3:45 PM - daBuzz: yeah. we have an easy schedule this year but next year's is a *****
Aug 28, 2014 at 3:45 PM - Eric: Yeah next year is dangerous.
Aug 28, 2014 at 3:45 PM - DuckGT: Yeah I think it would definitely benefit Gotsis' draft position to come back for his Sr. year
Aug 28, 2014 at 3:46 PM - wingsrlevel: Leggett isn't practicing..def not playing this week.
Aug 28, 2014 at 3:46 PM - Eric: Leggett was ruled out earlier in the week.
Aug 28, 2014 at 3:46 PM - daBuzz: yeah...some are starting to question his ability to tough it out through dings
Aug 28, 2014 at 3:46 PM - Jacketfish: Eric, any chance of Klock touching the ball this season? I know he caught a few balls in HS.
Aug 28, 2014 at 3:46 PM - wingsrlevel: Does anyone else think Smith should be starting over Golden?
Aug 28, 2014 at 3:46 PM - redmule: Think Gotsis draft status depends on our overall D. If we play well, it goes up. If we don't, he returns.
Aug 28, 2014 at 3:47 PM - Eric: Its a hamstring issue right now.
Aug 28, 2014 at 3:47 PM - daBuzz: @redmule, not so sure about that. NFL does a pretty good job of evaluating players now since there's so much game tape with all games being televised
Aug 28, 2014 at 3:47 PM - Eric: Probabyl not on Klock.
Aug 28, 2014 at 3:48 PM - daBuzz: hmm....no, i think we may indeed have a "tackle eligible" play at some point saved up for some big game
Aug 28, 2014 at 3:48 PM - daBuzz: wont be something we run a lot but potentially once or twice all season as a gadget play
Aug 28, 2014 at 3:48 PM - stech81: didn't we use a few years ago
Aug 28, 2014 at 3:48 PM - Eric: I am of the thought that Smith gets a job somewhere...it might be Golden's, it might be Johnson's, but he is going to get someones job soon IMO. I dont think Golden and Johnson tackle well enough.
Aug 28, 2014 at 3:49 PM - Jacketfish: Yeah with Beno. Wouldnt mind seeing it with Klock though. He would run some folks over
Aug 28, 2014 at 3:49 PM - daBuzz: i'm with u on Johnson, Eric. I think he too often takes horrible angles
Aug 28, 2014 at 3:49 PM - Eric: Crazy to me we have Noble and Smith as backups...good depth. Those kids love to hit...Love players like Smith, Noble, PJ Davis, Austin twins, etc that just love to hit.
Aug 28, 2014 at 3:50 PM - redmule: Too many good DB's. Temptation to play prevent will be strong late in games.
Aug 28, 2014 at 3:50 PM - wingsrlevel: I think Johnson plays/looks much better in Ted Roof's D. His issue wasn't tackling IMO it was being in the right place. Golden just isn't physical at all. Great return guy but not great defender.
Aug 28, 2014 at 3:51 PM - daBuzz: Noble is a hitter but he was described as a "loose cannon" sometimes. Said he too often wants to "blow people up" rather than being where he is supposed to be
Aug 28, 2014 at 3:51 PM - Eric: I would rather have that problem than lack of being physical.
Aug 28, 2014 at 3:51 PM - daBuzz: < same here
Aug 28, 2014 at 3:52 PM - Eric: Personally I would like a group of Johnson and Smith at S, with Noble as the SAM.
Aug 28, 2014 at 3:52 PM - wingsrlevel: agressive mistakes are much better than passive mistakes
Aug 28, 2014 at 3:52 PM - Eric: I see us blitzing with Noble and/or Smith.
Aug 28, 2014 at 3:53 PM - daBuzz: gotta run. youngest son is rebuilding a vintage motorcycle for his senior project and we have to go pick up some parts. Eric, you and John do a great job with this site. thanks for doing it
Aug 28, 2014 at 3:53 PM - Eric: Thanks for dropping by daBuzz...thanks for the props!
Aug 28, 2014 at 3:54 PM - stech81: any chance a LB will move to DE
Aug 28, 2014 at 3:54 PM - Eric: Harrell could play some DE.
Aug 28, 2014 at 3:55 PM - GTJoeBrew: Yeah, I love a defense that hits hard. As much as I can't stand uga, they always have a defense that hits hard and is pumped up easily...
Aug 28, 2014 at 3:55 PM - stech81: did he get to practice much there , or are you talking into the season
Aug 28, 2014 at 3:55 PM - Eric: into the season...he just got cleared.
Aug 28, 2014 at 3:56 PM - GTJoeBrew: He did participate in camp though, right? Just non contact?
Aug 28, 2014 at 3:56 PM - redmule: How much of a gambler will Roof be? Is he Tuneta-light on blitzing?
Aug 28, 2014 at 3:57 PM - Eric: Non contact for the last part of it.
Aug 28, 2014 at 3:57 PM - GTBillyJosh: Harrell is listed at almost 240 lbs. So its not like he doesn't have the size.
Aug 28, 2014 at 3:57 PM - Eric: Hes not Tenuta but he knows we gotta bring as many as it takes to get pressure.
Aug 28, 2014 at 3:57 PM - GTJoeBrew: Yeah, it will be interesting to see where he plays himself into.
Aug 28, 2014 at 3:58 PM - GTJoeBrew: Thats one thing that I couldn't stand about CAG. QB's had all the time in the world to pick us apart.
Aug 28, 2014 at 3:59 PM - stech81: I know it's a guess but will most teams try and stop the QB or take the pitchman this year ? speed or faster speed.
Aug 28, 2014 at 4:00 PM - redmule: It would seem that strong DB's and DL depth problems means blitz is the default.
Aug 28, 2014 at 4:01 PM - collegeballfan: stech81 - You haveasked THE question.
Aug 28, 2014 at 4:02 PM - Bruce Wayne: They won't have a chance to stop either unless they first stop the B back
Aug 28, 2014 at 4:03 PM - stech81: Eric has CPJ said how good JT is reading the defense so far ?
Aug 28, 2014 at 4:03 PM - Northeast Stinger: Not that anyone cares but I am headed out to Acadia now. Going dark.
Aug 28, 2014 at 4:05 PM - Bruce Wayne: have fun camping
Aug 28, 2014 at 4:18 PM - DuckGT: Living up here in Columbia, Sc and seeing all the craziness thats going on for the game today, will we ever play USCe? I think that would be a great game, kinda like uga/clem.
Aug 28, 2014 at 4:25 PM - kg01: Agree @DuckGT. Would love to see us play some more off-brand SEC teams lol
Aug 28, 2014 at 4:29 PM - Jerry the Jacket: We used to play the Cocks every year. We always beat them in Atlanta and lost to them in Columbia. We actually would match up pretty well with them.

Aug 28, 2014 at 4:42 PM - DuckGT: @Jerry, I agree. I went to the Navy game a few years ago and they gave the Cocks all they could handle with the triple option. Was hoping it would be them we would play in 2017 instead of Tenn.
Aug 28, 2014 at 4:50 PM - BranMart: WE did have SC on the schedule for 2020-21 I think. Not sure if still on.
Aug 28, 2014 at 5:56 PM - Longestday: Wish I could watch Tulane tonight
Aug 28, 2014 at 6:29 PM - NorthGaJacket15: Eric, my computer is not allowing me to scroll back to earlier in the chat to read up... is that a consistent problem... or my computer or user error??
Aug 28, 2014 at 8:49 PM - daBuzz: Well it appears I got it right that the SC - A&M game would be a blowout. I just missed the crap out of which team would do the boat racing of the other one
