Sunday Morning QB- Tastes Like Bacon Edition
1. What a beautiful day yesterday. A district title, 7 game winning streak, a 20 oz ribeye with grilled squash, zucchini, and onions.... bacon-wrapped shrimp appetizer. To add it? A Hog killin, Mullen getting beat by Kirby yet again, and OM losing. As the Old Milwaukee commercial used to say- "It just dont get any better than this"
2. Surprise starter TommyBoy yesterday. Plastic Man got to go against the 118th ranked D in the country yesterday. It would have taken a bullet to hurt him on a numbers day like yesterday. It's always surprising how quickly people get healthy for these types of games. And that goes for every level from Jr High to the NFL.
3. UPig is the worst SEC team I can remember in recent history. At least under Croom we could play D somewhat. OM has had some really bad defenses but at least were viable on O. UPig is really bad and now has quit too apparently- 153 points the last 3 games.
4. Good to see us attack their weakest part of their team- run D. Attack it we did. I cant remember a more dominating performance by the OL against an SEC team. 57 carries for 460 yards. Total dominance. We could have pulled a Mike Justice in the state championship game when he was at MC and not thrown a pass yesterday. It wouldnt have mattered. Complete dominance against a very bad team.
5. Nice job by Osirus of jumping up and grabbing the ball thrown up for grabs for a TD. UPig's short corner was there- Mitchell just high-pointed it and made the play. Still only 1 catch tho. He has 2 catches the last 3 games. Terrible job of getting the ball to your best WR by this offense. I know he has a drop or two in those games- but he simply isnt getting the targets he should be.
6. Not real happy with the way UPig was able to run the ball on us- averaging 7.4 per carry. Fortunately, they are so bad throwing the football it didnt matter. We did a great job of taking away the slant they kept throwing on 3rd down. Nice job Coach Morris of being so diverse on offense against the blitz you know is coming from Shoop on money downs.
7. On UPig's 1st TD and some other runs- they ran to the boundary with a G kick. Our DE wasnt keeping outside contain and was spilling inside. OG ended up kicking the CB and it led to some good runs by UPig. We got to clean that up. Either the DE has keep outside contain as he squeezes or the LB has to come off the horn to take on the OG in you want the DE spilling inside.
8. How great was it to see something good happen for Marcus Murphy? If anybody needed it- it was him. Good job of breaking on the ball and making a play.
9. 2 weeks to get ready for Bammer. They will be coming off LSU and their D is not the monster it usually is. Since we got TommyBoy healthy and we are at home- I'm sure we can expect the offense to put some points on the board.
10. Egg Bowl going to be for a bowl appearance. Auburn was flat but OM played them all the way to the end. That has to at least make you somewhat uncomfortable. I cant bear to watch them win a 3rd straight game at Scott Field. OM's APR is better than ours- so if it comes down to us or them if a 5 win team is needed- they would go before us should we lose to them.
