  1. The last 12 hours have a definite "Flowers for Agernon" feel to aggy self awareness. I'm sure they'll beat UMass and decide they're the best 2 win team ever.
  2. I'll be curious to see the game plan next week. The play calling was much more conservative after Ewers went out even before Card got hurt.
  3. Aggy can't force Jimbo to do anything. Their options are: 1) pay him $100 million to coach; or 2) pay him $100 million to not coach.
  4. I'm too lazy to look it up, but I'm pretty sure Sumlin had more FBS wins than Jimbo.
  5. Lol. Kansas (and every other Big 12 team) looks better than aggy.
  6. They abandoned the run, their receivers stopped dropping passes, and Young is really good.
  7. We won't play another QB this year that is even close to as good as Bryce Young.
  8. Me too. Bama's offense was basically Bryce Young doing something amazing.
  9. If we were in the SEC we'd already have been in the top 10
  10. I'm pretty sure Ohio State, Penn State, Baylor, and aggy are the Mount Rushmore of insufferable fans. Top 5 is the best we can hope for with that group. It couldn't hurt to try though.
  11. I was thinking it sounded like an Alabama pimp. Or a countertop.
  12. I'd tell Tech we'll play two in Austin for every one in Lubbock.
  13. BoB gets a lot of well-earned shit, but Pete Golding isn't exactly the second coming of Buddy Ryan. I recall Bama fans hoping he'd leave with Sark. Bama has more talent and much more experience so they may outplay us. I'd be shocked if they out-coach us.
  14. Go ask someone from Vandy to explain that post to you.
  15. You've never actually watched a football game have you? On a related note, I'm glad they finally stopped having Bijan return punts.
  16. Here's the play. There was plenty of fail, but Brockermeyer is the worst offender. Richardson is blitzing... well, let's call it running aimlessly up field. The fact that Richardson bit so hard on the WR moving like there was going to be a screen suggests he at least thinks he's responsible for that receiver/area. Meanwhile, Brockermeyer just stands there for a second or two, plays patty-cake with the o-lineman, then misses the tackle.
  17. Bama isn't the same team on the road as they are at home. Last year they only had 4 road games: a 2 point win at Florida, a 3 point loss to aggy, a 40 point win at Miss St, and a 2 point win in 4OT at Auburn. Other than Miss St, they were +1 in three true road games.
  18. Brockermeyer was really bad. He was responsible for most of the yards on their TD drive. I.e. about a third of their yards on the day. Poor instincts and limited athleticism are a bad combo. Unfortunately, Ford isn't that much better. I'm not sure how he is ahead of Richardson, who looked pretty good. Hell, Jett Bush looked better than Ford. Ford was often in the right spot and just couldn't finish the tackle (as opposed to Brockermeyer being completely out of the play).
  19. PFF went full retard. Majors was MUCH better than Robertson. Majors' worst play was missing a stunt, but the ball was out before the defender could get to Ewers. He also ended up on his face when he reached for a defender and the guy side-stepped him while yanking his pads. He basically did a belly flop on the field, but he was 15 yards from the ball. He looked lost at the second level at times, but that was 10 yards down field. Otherwise he had a good game. Robertson went back and forth between looking great and getting beat.
  20. Watching it again, the o-line was better than I thought. Helm struggled on several plays and the sack on Ewers looked like his guy. Sanders let a guy run right by him and stop Bijan at the line. Another stop on Bijan was just a good play by a db. In real time it seemed like there were more busted assignments.
  21. The o-line looked like we had three new starters. Our per-rush numbers ended up pretty good, but there was a lot of feast or famine. We'd lose a yard and then gain 15. We got a third of our yards on three carries. Against ULM, that's not a good look. On a positive note, for the most part it seemed to be busted assignments rather than guys getting beat one-on-one. That's easier to fix than physical limitations.
  22. Ewers wasn't great, but he didn't panic after a really bad start and his decision-making got better as the game went on. It would have been nice to see him connect on a couple of deep throws, but otherwise he did well for his first start.
  23. Seeing Card struggle and Brockermeyer give up an easy touchdown game me hope. Those guys looked just as bad as last year while everyone else looked improved. Quinn had his struggles and Bama is going to do obscene things to the o-line, but at least we seem to be improving.
  24. We also had a special teams score and a pick six which reduced the number of drives.
