  1. So do you catch a wild caught shrimp w a shrimp boat and a net, or you need hookers, roll and scotch?
  2. Meyer's 2014 offense that beat Bama was basically pro-style. The few zone-read and QB runs were basically trick plays. Gun ZoneOne of the more popular alignments in the Meyer offense is the Gators’ gun zone option, a modern day and very effective triple option. Most of the time this look features three or four wide receivers with a running back next to the quarterback and usually their best receiver parked in the slot. The slot receiver goes in motion but ends up most of the time in the backfield as the second RB to the right of the quarterback.“You have to be prepared to treat the quarterback as one of the components of the offense as far as defending the run as well as the play action stuff,” said the defensive coordinator from a perennial Top 20 program. “What it looks like they’re trying to do to us is trying to create a one back alignment, but by shifting or motion they get back to a way in which they can make it a two-back offense.”What the gun-zone option tries to accomplish is to see how the backside defensive end and the outside linebacker adjust to the shift. The quarterback will base his decisions on what these two players do. For example, he snaps the ball and prepares to hand it off to the running back with one eye on the defensive end. If the DE chases the running back down the line of scrimmage, the QB keeps the ball and turns his attention to the OLB with the slot receiver now his option. If the LB commits to the QB, he pitches, if not, he keeps it. “You have to be sound against the option and be solid against the dive back and the quarterback and you have to take care of the pitch,” the defensive coordinator said. “What they try to do is read the box and see how many you have to defend the run and what you are going to commit to the passing game. They are trying to locate your defenders and call the play based on your alignment.“It’s about creating alignments and creating space and trying to take advantage of what the defense is showing.” When he won the SEC and beat Alabama in the SEC Championship, and then beat tOSU in the championship it was the spread for more than 50% of the plays. Not sure which Pro team runs the gun zone?
  3. U r right on the record, but the spread, that Meyer brought to the SEC has been used to beat Bama, to the point that Bama has morphed. I have deep filial ties to Alabama.My mother is a Bama alumn, both of my sisters were born in Tuscaloosa, because my grandmother was a obstetrician there. She received Christmas Cards from the Bryants as she delivered some of their grandchildren. I have watched more of my share Bama games. Not sure if Utah was running elements of Meyer’s spread when they stomped Bama in the Fiesta Bowl in 2009?
  4. A gummer never hurt anyone!
  5. Urban Meyer may be the last offensive Genius, who did pull it off. Believe he is the only coach to beat Bama on the regular at several different schools using spread offensives. So Time will tell if Harsin is more Gus or Urban.
  6. His legacy of ham handedness will only be overshadowed by his politics. Nah, it won’t. That fucker has ankles for hands.
  7. Pick your pineapple? When did Southpark get the Marvel treatment?
  8. Nah, we need a motherfucker, you paragons of virtue can decide what variety of motherfucker makes you feel safe. Since congress Is about to blow up the NCAA, I’ll take an experienced ratfucker, who knows how to juice his players and pay their way to the top. I am not sure 47 arrests is enough but cUM is a start. Bring out your finest meats and cheeses.
  9. Harsin will kill it there. I do not get the negativity on this hire. His motion offense and trickeration is exactly what AU needs to deal with the superior defenses they face, he should attract superior skill players.
  10. Did not recognize her from that vantage point.
  11. Waste of money
  12. Why in the world would anyone put a hand built motor into a minivan?
  13. "Oh my God! He only has one ass. He's of no use to me, I'll have to burn the room."
  14. Guess they should join a conference if they want a guaranteed bowl w a winning record.
  15. Almost lost this game for not moving the ball around and chewing clock. OSU has some incredible ability to male tough shots today, but the guard defense was pretty bad today. I think my fat as could have driven to the bucket today.
  16. Don't be obsessed with your desires Danny. The Zen philosopher, Basho, once wrote, 'A flute with no holes, is not a flute. A donut with no hole, is a Danish.' He was a funny guy.
  17. Nah the aggy could barely score against Venderbilt
  18. Just ate there a few weeks ago when visiting Axiom Space.
  19. I blame space force
  20. Agreed, it should go, this is the one of the few Aggy I could ever tolerate...
  21. Tosu would mudhole aggy, even with their flawed qb.
  22. It is about TV money. LHN gets the shade for it , but it pervasive throughout. The only time the Chantaleers matter is when they first emerge, no one can give two shits after that, because money talks.
  23. Yeah because of their scary good defense.
  24. Ass-to-mouth not a national brand not even SEC can fix that
