John Bond at qb, Danny Knight at wide receiver and I think Michael Haddix rb if memory serves. Lots of injuries but got most back and beat #4 (I think) LSU after they stomped Bama at Bama. First night game at Davis Wade (CBS) with portable lights brought in, brutally cold night and a last minute drive with La native Dana Moore kicking the winning fg. Then waxed om in Jackson to close out. Didn?t have a winning record I don?t think but when all cylinders were firing that was one bad*** offense.

Already been said twice

Bob Tyler's Veer
Rockey @ QB, then Bruce Threadgill
Walter Packer, Dennis Johnson, Terry Vitrano in the same backfield!
Melvin Barkum and Stan Black (before he moved to DB) at receiver
Plenty of others these are just the first that come to mind

If I remember correctly a lb Keo Coleman got emebaressed in the pond bowl in the last Egg in Jackson getting a om td’s over him by over running the play. Then in that beautifully cold game first series in Jackie’s first year the om qb ran an option and Keo put a concussion on him and Jackie’s offense took over. I was really happy not for the concussion but with Keo redeeming his self after the year before. What a great first EB back at Davis Wade. It was a beautiful day for JWS and his “DOGS”.

I loved our 2010 offense under Mullen with Relf where Mullen used Hemphill and Hanrahan. But he went away from the FB/Hback for some reason. We really only had 1 good WR in Bumphis. That same offense with a little better passer and 1 more legit receiver would have been fun to watch.

Our 1994 offense with Michael Davis and Kevin Bouie. Derrick Taite at QB. And Moulds at receiver. A lot of talent on the field. Keffer McGee was 3rd string TB on that team. And Fred McCrary played in the NFL and brought a lot to the table.

Jackie started off with Sleepy and Micheal Davis. That was a backfield. Will always wonder what could've been if Sleepy never got hurt.

I think it was Jackie's 2nd year where we were set to make a run. Sleepy at QB with Willie Harris and Olanda Truitt at WR. We were stacked. We smoked Texas in Game 1 and we hammered Florida on a Thursday night game that awesome. Then Sleepy got hurt and things just didn't go as well with Plump at QB. Of course Bama was loaded that year so we wouldn't have won the West.

Yep. Sleepy got hurt in the Thursday night Florida game.

I remember the 92 and 94 Bama games, the student section was so crowded, dates sat in laps and others stood in the rows between sections.

Well I was at both and Still remember sleepy making that turn and his knee just went. Everybody in the stadium knew it was bad when it happened. I still would've like to see Sleepy face that Bama D.

Which in fact was the qb draw. But I digress.

If you eliminate damn near 40% of your throwable field then it makes shit easy to cover. Get a QB who will attempt to attack every area of the field over one who can't even read correctly half the time.

Bingo. That is why I called for Sawyer the second the Kentucky game hit halftime.

The biggest heartbreak was that Sleepy got hurt when we were up 30-6 over Florida on a QB draw. Terrible job by Jackie and Watson. We should have had Plump in doing that shit by then

Likely cost us an SEC title

That UF game was 92. We smoked a ranked Spurrier and heisman Mathews QB that night 30-6. Sleepy got hurt and the season was crippled as you said. The TX game was JWS game 1 at home in 91. That 92 team had some freak athletes and was ready to roll. Even with Sleepy going down, we gave Bama their toughest game in 92 when they won NC. Had them beat at home till Barker scored late in 4th. People forget how good some of Jackie's teams were. Go watch some of his teams play. Big, physical tough players. We bullied everyone.

Yeah, the fans were pretty bought in back then. I don't remember a lot of people leaving early and empty stadium either - in football or basketball. I remember the opposite. A lot of soft today.

We played Texas at Texas in '92 to open the season. The OP is correct as we smoked Texas 28-10, compared to the closer 10-6 win at Scott Field in the 2nd game of the '91 season that you are referring to.

John Bond?s pitch to a trailing running back twenty yards downfield.
