Sunday Morning QB- Saban Hates Pirates Edition
1. Couldnt have been a better day for football. Weather was perfect for tailgating, grilling, air balloon races, child birthday parties, or whatever you wanted to do. Great slate of games on TV. I smoked 2 racks of spares as they were on sale and they could not have turned out better. I use the 3-2-1 method and a basterdized version of Myron Mixon's rub. I'm one of the few Sicilians that is not a fan of garlic plus I add a couple of other things to it.
2. The Airbone got 299 yards against a Bama D considered to be their worst in awhile. 9 points in 2 years against Bama. 9 points is the lowest total scored on Bama this season so far. Bama was giving up 25 PPG coming into the game. This offense is not ever going to compete with Bama. If last night didn't show you then you wont ever comprehend it. 1st back2back 40 point losses to Bama since the 70's
3. I was curious all week how Bama was going to defend the Airbone. Saban is the best DC in college football and I knew that he and Golding would have a good plan. They did a great job of varying looks and getting pressure. Disguised coverages very well. The Airbone was confused all night. The 1st pick was confusion, the 2nd pick was not enough arm strength, and I missed the 3rd pick because I was watching two interesting offenses playing in Tennessee. They were physical with our WR's and we didn't like it very much. And when a one dimensional offense just let's their RT go one-on-one with your future 1st round draft pick- then they have to live with their QB likely getting hurt.
4. I'll say it over and over and over- one dimensional offenses are easier to defend. One dimensional offenses are harder to block for. Want to keep your RT from getting abused? give him some help. Change something. What's the saying about doing something over and over and expecting different results? The SEC is different from other leagues because of the people that play defense in the league. Especially D-line.
5. Well, we only have 1 QB apparently. We're not going to sub for injury or being blown out. Gotta admire Rogers fighting thru the pain last night. AC joint injuries are painful.
6. Our run D inside is pretty good. They played well last night until they got tired. Eventually you wear down against the Bama's of the world. As has been the case this season- we get burned alot bringing pressure. I dont see any reason that wont continue to be the case. We got beat so bad for that 1st TD it was just ugly.
7. 2 weeks to come up with that gameplan on both sides of the ball. Make of that what you will.
8. We're in Year 2 and Leach has bragged about having more talent here at State than he's used to having. That is scary to me- especially when you look at our commitments as early signing day approaches. This is about as good as it gets folks from a talent perspective. We have at least 3 future NFL players on offense right now- with 2 of them possibly leaving early after this season.
9. What is with Tenn and Mississippi Rebel folks throwing trash at each other?
10. 6 wins for this team comes down to Kentucky, UPig, and Mississippi. Kentucky is better than we are but we will be at home. Should be a good game. Weather in R-Kansas will likely play a factor in that game and we dont run the ball at all so that doesnt help. We wont be the favorite in the Egg Bowl so that could be a very interesting day. Got to get to 6 wins this season if you're Leach. (We're not beating Auburn at Auburn)
Hail State

"The Airbone got 299 yards against a Bama D considered to be their worst in awhile."
Ole Miss, whose offense is considered the gold standard by many on this board and around the nation, had 291 total yards on Bama.
Bama has 1 bad game against A&M and all of a sudden they have the worst defense they've had in a while.
Also you compliment the defense for some reason. Let me fill you in, the defense sucks. 543 total yards of offense for Bama last night.

Bama gave up 29 on the road to Florida and 41 on the road to A&M. We scored 9.

They baited Rogers on some long throws. They didn't drop 8 like everyone else but jammed the receivers at the line and let their safeties basically play center field. They knew Rogers had a weak arm and disguised their defense to make him think he had one on one situations.

Second best D in the league behind Georgia. Acting like they aren't good is silly.

They are 7th in the league in Scoring D- that one that matters. And were below 7 before playing us

OK then A&M is second in scoring D. You can't have it both ways

number 4 all day and quit disparaging my beloved 82nd Airborne Division by associating it with this shitpile offense. At least use Air Assualt.

Airbone is combining Air Raid and Wishbone. Both are one dimensional offenses. Has zero to do with Airbourne

My Tab is Airborne not Airbourne. We aren't a bunch of french pastry chefs! And we aren't one dimensional. After we Jump we walk, IE groundpounders.

And yes I am arguing your point. Too many head landings.

Best matchup we have left not named Vandy is kentucky. They run it. That's our defensive strength. Not saying we will win. But it's our best shot.

Disagree. Kentucky can throw the ball enough to get some chunk plays against us. And they are good defensively. I think UPig is our best chance depending on weather of course
We have 14 TD passes- Kentucky has 13 and throws it half as much

Leach doesn't game plan. Doesn't watch film. His belief is that you have a set of plays and you rep those plays over and over again. No game plan just reps reps and reps
This is who is leading our program.

Well this became apparent in last years Egg Bowl.

We ain?t beating Kentucky, Arkansas, or OM. Hell at this point I don?t have any faith that we will best Vandy. The A&M win is looking more like a fluke to me more and more. I know pessimistic outlook but I hate our football team sometimes

I feel you, man. Unfortunately most of our fans don't realize that Kentucky has their Mullen in Stoops, and they have now passed us by. We won't beat them. Ole Miss is now even further ahead of us than Kentucky, and is a matchup nightmare for us, so we ain't winning that one. Arkansas is likely our best shot, and it's on the road, so it's far from a game I expect to win. We dropped the ball with this hire. You don't bring a one dimensional system into a league whose goal is to make you one dimensional. It was doomed from the start. We need an AD change, then a HC change shortly thereafter
