  1. Did they have success?
    They ran the ball 50 times for 150 yards. Some decent runs mixed in with a lot of negative plays behind the line of scrimmage. PK seemed content just letting Mississippi State be conservative and keeping the ball in front. 
     
    This is how our run D has been so far, feast or famine. We're going to face better O-lines and RB's in the future, need to limit the famine part.
  2. yep.  my concern is MSU had solid success running it right up the gut.  that really ate up clock. arch can't be arch on the sidelines.  KY used the same approach on UGA and Ol Miss.  I imagine we can expect this strategy to be used against Texas the rest of the year.
    That has been a problem since game one of we're honest. It seems like we either stuff the run for a TFL or let them rumble for 8-10 yards, and MSU had far more of the former than anyone else we've played so far including Michigan.

    Ant Hill (along with the other LB's) being a bit too aggressive and either running past the play or getting caught up in the dogfight among our DT's vs O-line seems to be a large part of the issue. Hope they get this shit straightened out by bloU.

  3. Yall remember when Vance Young crossed the goal line to put Texas State over the University of South Carolina in the national championship game all those years ago?
    I remember it like it was yesterday. Vance came in to relieve Colt and Jaxon Shipley had a nice day running the ball.

  4. Hot Take:
    Sit Ewers and play Manning.
    We need Ewers at 100% or close against OU and UGA.  You don't risk that playing him against MSU, even if he thinks he's ready to go.  
    You play for OU and UGA (not "looking ahead" in the sense we usually use that phrase; just good strategy with an injury).
    Same, the Heisman ship sailed when he missed 1 1/4 games, and I think they're going to give it to Travis Hunter over a QB this year.
  5. College football coaches have to have a slime factor. They are salesmen that know football and people. The amount of politics, fundraising, recruiting/retention involved (coaches, staff, high school, portal), and blind eyes turned is not going to net out some Jesus-like figure.
    If a fan base says they think their coach is slimy, they are just saying the slime isn’t netting the results they are looking for. They just want more effective slime.
    This is true to some degree, so is the fact some coaches are simply far slimier than others. I think we got one of the latter thankfully, but I don't kid myself into thinking the Dabo approach (even he has a bit of sliminess) is the way to sustained success.
  6. Another game with 50 place. Reminds me of the early 2000s.  
     
    52 points minimum as much as I love the deep ball. I don’t think swing pass or 60 yard bomb should be our passing attack. But I also like to fuck with OU since they won’t know what we are bringing 
    Even if Arch starts we can beat them without showing anything new...save that for BloU.

  7. Everytime I see something about him i think it is news he is transferring. Might be good news if the fight is true.
    I really wanted him to beast out, but that was mostly because I knew Sweat and Murphy would be gone this season. If he hasn't progressed enough to see significant snaps, not to mention recorded stats through the first 4 games, it's time for Sark to call him in the office after the season.

    Sark- "Sydir, how do you think your season went this past year?"

    Sydir- "well coach, you know..." *Sark hits button marked "portal" that opens a trap door under the guest chair*

  8. I did you all a favor and read through the aggy wishcasting rants. You won’t believe this, but, in sum, Michigan is a horrible football team that lucked into beating USC and Bowling Green is an experienced and talented football team that should not be overlooked.
    My favorite is the goober who thinks the only reason we're ranked #1 is because we were ranked too highly pre-season.

    Has nothing to do with beating the defending champs in their house and taking care of cupcakes like we're supposed to, it's the BOMC again.
