  1. Another promising thing I saw was finally using Niblett as a decoy on offensive plays.
  2. Guilbeau has maybe made one good coverage play in his entire career at Texas. He's okay in run support though.
  3. If I remember correctly, Vandy loves to do the slanting DL thing that gives our protection schemes fits.
  4. There’s a balance to be found between abandoning the edge and playing straight contain. Just maintain your gap responsibility Its the same problem JJ watt had, but he was a much more consistent explosive generator
  5. Hopefully he does a better job of containing the edge as a spy than he does as an edge rusher. I enjoy his tenacity, but he’s been punished for that a few times already this year.
  6. I think Vandy will give up the short balls to see if we will take it. They’ve really been there all year. Once they adjust, things could really slow down and get hairy if we haven’t scored enough TDs from it, unless Caldwell can hit a few long balls to back them off. They aren’t athletic enough to stop the run and the intermediate game before giving up too many points along the way.
  7. Yea, expert analysis like that is why I don’t watch games in public unless I’m at the game.
  8. They gave us a tough game after getting two super fortunate picks off Quinn and getting a lucky TD late that should have been picked off. The final score wasn’t super indicative of how comfortable that game was by the end
  9. Vandy receivers have sneaky speed, but they aren’t all out speed merchants like MSU and Florida have. A&M has similar speed at WR. Hopefully we see tighter coverage this week.
  10. Has this been verified by anyone reputable? It says No3 instead of On3, so could easily be fake news.
  11. Perkins is undisciplined and an inconsistent tackler. Athletic as hell, but Pavia ran him into blockers or used stutter steps and angles to get the yards he needed when scrambling.
  12. Trending? I don’t mind the negativity, but the constant spamming all over the place just makes me automatically ignore the post once I see the ass avatar.
  13. Didn't realize who he quoted, I have that guy on ignore
  14. Pretty sure Doug Marrone was hired to replace Flood, but don't let facts get in the way of a good narrative. Flood replaced Brent Key
  15. Our defense struggles against speed. Brenen Thompson has extra motivation in this game as well. MS St also runs the ball well enough to punish our suspect DL. Florida tried its hardest to give them the game yesterday, but MS St was dead set on doing dumb shit to lose. No way should they have been throwing by that point of the game. Either way, they played Florida much tougher in Gainesville than we did. Our guys probably think MsSt is trash too, so they won't play up to them until they gotta try and make a comeback. Season ends in Starkville 27-17
  16. UGA should have lost to UK last year in Lexington. Then, they beat a good Ole Miss team in Oxford last year too. This is not nearly the same level talent UK team, but the coaching is similar. Survive and advance and hope the team finds themselves while it can still have meaning.
  17. I've just stopped responding to that guy because we clearly see the game differently. Our TEs can't block for shit right now.
  18. TEs are poor blockers and they aren't dynamic in the passing game. Endries has all but disappeared as a receiver, but obviously Arch is missing throws all over. WIsner is good, but no one else is a value add. Pass pro is also below average here. Sark is definitely an issue though. We thought it was Quinn, but now we see the common denominator here.
  19. No business winning this game. Kentucky was begging us to win this game and we were fighting like hell to give it away until we eventually gave in at the end. This was a bad bad win. We played as bad or worse offensively in this game as we did against Florida. Not being able to run the ball on these guys was baffling. They suck at stopping the run and we made them look like Saban's Alabama teams. We were covering their guys like they had Ohio State/Florida level talent at WR. Their receivers are terrible in general. We had multiple opportunities to win this game going away and just made losing play after losing play right until the very end. Thank God for Mason Shipley.
  20. Arch isn't good enough to carry this team, but he isn't completely as bad as he looks at times. The offense is a fucking shit show all around. TEs are average at best, WRs are slightly above average, RBs are average, OL is below average. QB is generally below average as a result. The lack of cohesion and leadership only compounds the issues, no one seems to hold anyone else accountable. Even DJ Campbell seems less fiery this year. Caldwell might be worth a look, but there's 5+million reasons why he won't get an extended one. Despite that, him taking over would only punt our potential issues to next year. We aren't beating Georgia/Vandy/A&M unless Arch goes bananas. Any team that can score more than 20 on our defense is put us in a real bind offensively.
  21. Bad playcalling in this game. Sark is very stubborn
  22. Terry Bussey isn't doing anything much more than kick returns this year. Michael Terry was more running back than WR in high school, but he preferred WR so we recruited him with a focus on that. I know he didn't care for TE, but maybe he likes RB and can stick there. He's a big dude
  23. Never made it back from injury. Tore his patellar tendon a few years back. Didn’t care for some of the things he did while on campus, but those were tough times for our country as a whole and there was a dearth of team leadership at the time. Still glad to call him a Longhorn. Wish him well in his next chapter.
  24. By trying to bend at his knees instead of his waist.
