  1. They said we couldn’t win at Bryant Denny either.
  2. 1. We can go through the defensive game tape and see that this isn’t exclusive to Gilbeau. Manny got beat for a TD against MSU. He should have been beat for a TD against Vandy but Pavia didn’t make the throw. Littleton was getting beat on routes repeatedly against SJSU. We saw what Dallas Wilson did to Black. The Stowers TD wasn’t technically on him but my continued issue with Gilbeau is he is going to do his assignment and nothing else. He doesn’t have the football IQ to improvise on the fly. 2. Again part of playing DB is forcing a QB into tough throws they can’t make. Sayin threw a prayer and Tate made the play. But Gilbeau was also there to make a play on the ball. I don’t care about if Sayin makes a better throw because he didn’t.
  3. I get that Gilbeau is probably the least liked starter on defense but sometimes the offense just wins. Gilbeau isn’t the only DB that has been beat on a route this year. The QB still has to make the throw and the WR has to catch it. Part of playing DB is being in a position to make those two things as difficult as possible. Gilbeau recovered and Tate made a hell of a catch. Sometimes you just have to tip your cap.
  4. The only reason some of you think the freshman WRS should get more snaps is because they haven’t gotten any. That is literally the only reason. As mentioned above McCutcheon got snaps vs Ohio State and he is also a true freshman. I know a lot of people like to think there is a game day stud just sitting on the bench dwindling his thumbs because the coach doesn’t like the way they practice but that isn’t always the case. I’d also like to mention Butler was also ahead of those guys and he isn’t anyone’s favorite.
  5. Our top 4 WRs are likely all returning next year. Sark doesn’t rotate a lot at WR.
  6. I think this game hinges on being able to stop their running game. LBs need to have a really good game on Saturday.
  7. I think yall are setting yourselves up to be massively disappointed regarding OL and the portal. Unless there is a coaching change I don’t expect us to be very active when it comes to the OL.
  8. Ricks should have been flagged for DPI 3 times now.
  9. That defense needed a TO 2 plays ago.
  10. All of these games are boring duds
  11. I guess, but then that means I’m no longer considering coming to your school to play football. I’m sure most of these top kids could likely negotiate the new school paying them a “bonus” to possibly pay back whatever they may owe. Not likely he is a QB at the next level.
  12. Some of you should do a better job realizing when you’re ignorant towards a certain subject and just shut the fuck up about it. Some of the post in here are flat out embarrassing.
  13. Teams don’t tend to challenge Manny often so the opposite corner is going to see a lot of work. Gilbeau is average at best, and whoever is asking for Black, he has been worse IMO and looks even slower. Roberson can’t stop committing stupid penalties, Mack is a nickel, and I don’t even think Wilson is on the depth chart at this point. If Littleton can play CB not sure why we haven’t tried moving him over and putting Mack at nickel. The secondary as a whole seems to lack speed, just like the offense does.
  14. I’m going to hope Duke’s perimeter D is on another level and our wing players will play better going forward.
  15. Seems like his career in Indy ended when he dropped the ball before going into the end zone. Now he is being sent to NFL purgatory.
  16. It doesn’t appear that we have a scorer on the wing. V needs to establish a simple jump hook in the post, keep it simple.
  17. Reading this thread you’d think we were already down 20. I flip on the game and we are down 2 points.
  18. I think Sark has realized he has no more room to experiment and try to force experience of his offense on this team. I was afraid he was going to revert back when WRs started dropping like flies Saturday but he didn’t. Barring a major injury issue I think this is the offense for the rest of the season. And then we start all over again next year.
  19. I hope Jelani comes back and Williams returns to his pre-injury form. I think that is a solid starting duo. The jury is out on Filsaime for me. Right now he is just another guy out there. There is some youth in Hicks and Jonah that could maybe step up as well. But I do think we should fine another veteran safety. I believe we are replacing both CBs next year. I’m concerned no one has been able to take the job from Gilbeau and there is a notable drop off when Manny doesn’t play. If Littleton is moved to corner I’m guessing Mack takes over at nickel. So Black, Roberson, Phillips and whoever else fights for the other spot. I think another corner is needed as well. Just realized I haven’t mentioned JJR or Wilson and I’m not sure where either fits in the puzzle. Also I expect some attrition. Also the team as a whole could use some speed added on both sides of the ball.
  20. We are going to need to be in the market for some secondary players.
  21. I’m not sure why some of you are basing your opinions on how the AP has ranked thus far when their poll doesn’t mean shit.
  22. Holy fucking shit. But I’ll take it.
  23. This secondary desperately needs both starting safeties back.
  24. Yea Pavia hooked and tried to toss him.
