Gun's Guide to Cheering For a Team With 49 Scholarship Players

[ShotgunDawg]

Feel free to add your own.

1. You cannot say or insinuate that a coach should be fired.

2. You cannot get pissed about the score, lack of offense, or lack of defense.

3. You cannot get pissed at a player that hasn't played yet or a player playing out of position.

4. You cannot make any big picture declarations about the direction of the program UNLESS lack of effort is the issue.


1. You can get pissed at play calling. I mean, you've only got 49 players. 17ing go for it.

2. You can get pissed about us snapping any offensive play with more than 5 seconds left of the clock.

3. You can get pissed at good players, playing their normal position, that screw up.

4. You can get pissed at lack of effort.

I would love for you to come back after the game and grade yourself on your "guide"

How many players usually play in a normal sec game? It would be interesting to take the LSU game, Kentucky, and tonight's participation list and compare number of participants and who the participants are.

[RocketDawg]

Those are pretty good rules. But maybe we'll find out that a college team only needs about 50 scholarship plaeyrs.

You may normally play 49 or less or but roster distribution by position & who's out matters.

We'll be playing guys tonight that have never taken a college snap & we'll have an outside LB that had to move positions this week. Not mention backups having to play other positions.

If you don't count garbage time participation, which is sometime sort of an honorary thing, there probably won't be more than 45 playing. Just guessing. Maybe not nearly that many since there are no more than 22 starters.

We played 43 vs Vandy.

Distribution matters. We're without many many good players tonight

We are stronger tonight on offense than we were against Vandy. Heath is the only guy out.

[msstate7]

Reading the board here, I get the impression we have nothing but walk ons headed to Athens. I keep looking at the Vegas line to reflect this, but alas, it's Georgia -25 (opened -24). I think Georgia wins by 26+, but I do find it odd this line isn't moving more from reading here.

That's interesting. Hopefully it helps. Really wish we had Heath tonight. I think he's currently our best WR

[Jarius]

It’s fine to get pissed at our offense. We have our normal guys playing outside of Heath. The defense deserves a pass and it’s criminal that they are being put in this position.

True, but no one is out on defense for Covid except for Davis and Wheat right? Murphy, Peters, and Pickering aren't coming back this season. So I don't get what the big deal is about us playing.

Again, we're playing with 49 scholarship players. Talk yourself into whatever you want, but that's an extreme disadvantage.

The big deal is we have 20 scholarship players on defense that are available. No matter how we got there we are there.

Great post Gun!

I would love to see us score 10 meaningful points. By halftime or mid 3rd quarter before the game is way out of hand.

[PGHBulldogBG]

What I want to see I know we won?t because Leach is too stubborn and won?t change, but out of the players I just want to see 100 percent effort and limited mental errors

I'm just giving you facts.

That's not crazy expectations. That's a pretty low bar actually. Let's see if we can do it

With a slant

Jamie Chadwell just beat App State by 11 and beat St Napier in Lafayette and is undefeated just saying with less talent and experience
