Title: Fools Gold II
Post by: wesfau2 on November 05, 2017, 06:40:48 AM
That sloppy, plodding shit won't beat UGA and/or Bama.

There is no HU in our HUNH.  There are no intermediate routes.  KJ is going to fall apart from overuse.

We furked.

Edited to add: Jamel Dean is garbage and our special teams are goddamned abysmal.

^^All of the above^^  You nailed it in the other thread saying we threw one slant to Davis (I have man love for RD) and will never see it again.  RWS was spot on as well.  90% of our passes are either behind the line of scrimmage or 40 yards downfield. 

The question is why can you see it, I can see it, RWS can see it, Gary Danielson says it 3 times in one game, everybody can see it....but our coach who's getting paid $5 million dollars and who supposedly watches 90 hours of film a week....CAN'T SEE IT????

He. Doesn’t. Know. Anything. Else. 

Doesn’t matter what he sees or doesn’t see.  He only knows his one high school playbook.

I already said in Saturday suckage that we were DOA.

Ryan Davis and Will Hastings should be targeted no less than 20 times a game between them.  Not 40 yards down field.  Everything opens up from there.

It's actually incredible that Stidham is able to connect with such accuracy given the type throws he has to make when everyone knows what's coming. He has three picks in absolute nothing games. Yes he's a step slow in escapability and holds the ball too long but in Oklahoma's offense he probably has Mayfield numbers. He is severely handicapped by our shitty play calling. The quick stuff works but Malzahn refuses to make it a staple as it should be. Instead, the demented nerd keeps calling on KJ to be a fucking battering ram. Abusing our best back IS his short game. I listened to the radio broadcast yesterday and watched the replay this morning.
It's nothing short of torture.

But serious, only win by double digit on road vs sec west opponent. Gus should hang from new oak.

It is pretty obvious, which begs the question, is it a QB limitation?  Is it a limitation in reading a defense?  His calls don't really seem to have progressions, it just seems to be either it's going to be great or it's going to be shit.

I don't think so. Stidham doesn't stare down corners, it's the unvaried route combinations that are limiting. The guy would be the starter on a several teams ranked ahead of Auburn.
I don't like our chances against Georgia and Alabama however...
can you imagine what it might feel like to be beaten by our master strategist Gus Malzahn?
Holy shit!

WT isn’t as pessimistic as you homos.

Special Teams and Dean—I’ll toast to. I don’t understand the regression with special teams. Dean is just apparently the weak link.

KJ was not so much overused in my book. He did maybe play too long but 15 points isn’t exactly insurmountable. Especially since we are already down a co-starter. Seal the victory. That’s priority. And KJ understands ball security better than the subs. Typically, I’d agree that he gets overused. Just not this time.

Re: slants and intermediate routes, my guess is they were avoided and we’ll see them the last 2 weeks. If we don’t, we won’t even have a remote shot.

But, why use them if you don’t have to? Those passes will get you beat faster than the deep ball. TAMU would love to see that. 3 or 4 turnovers is just what the doc ordered for them.

Regardless, it was a quality win in my book. And I believe Lindsey is calling more plays. I was more disappointed in giving up some big plays on D and st play than anything else.

I’m all about these last 3. We are peaking right. It can happen.

Agree that we can’t  get away with it against Georgia or Bama.

Stidham said it weeks ago, he has no ability to change the play!
Three plays in a row, it was bump and run against Slayton with no safety over top. We ran the ball all plays.


In high school, that would be an automatic go!


We are running a HUNH O at at a pro style pace but not letting the QB make any adjustments!


And why we are not running that post route to Hastings is beyond me.
We are the only team in the SEC to have success with a play and NEVER come back to it!

It's not about being pessimistic.

We simply beat most teams because of our talent advantage.

And the more varied and timely the routes, the more space and element of surprise you create.
It wears down a defense, forces bad matchups, moves the chains and limits the constant beating on your key playmakers.

Thus in theory, you emplement the above and get it clicking, you attain a point advantage much sooner against your opponent resulting in more game experience for your reserves.

That is all.

Hereso and firstmost, it is not necessarily bedlam or ghosts that put our receivers in the position that they are enviable. Most do not trust Gus to the degree that you thus far have placed faith.

It is more serious than eggs and silliness. Time to man up.

Perfect setup for Gus to embarrass us on a national platform.

Oddly, UGA opened at only -2.  The sharps must like our defense.

Also, Chubb needs 114 yards or so to break Bo's career number.  Let's not have that happen on our watch.

Them coming in as the #1 team in the land and their back poised to break Bo's record should be all the motivation needed to pull off the upset.  Problem is that Gus is still coaching this offense.

Most likely, Stidham will hit a few big plays early to Hastings and others, while the defense will stop them for the most part until just before the half.  Probably go in up 17-7 at the half, with them scoring on their last drive.  Chubb will start the second half out by breaking a long run and cutting the lead to 3.  From there on it will be 2 runs up the middle followed by a deep ball on almost every Auburn possession while Georgia grinds it out, finally wearing the defense out on their way to a 31-20 win.

Most of this is probably pretty accurate only thing different I see is score.  I don't think our defense at home will give up 31.  24-20 UGA win. With us not crossing the 50 yard line the whole 4th quarter

A couple of updated stats.

Stidham 147/220  67%  1,996 yards (222 per game)  11 TD's and 3 INT's.  158 rating.

Kerryon Johnson  166 rushes for 868 yards.  (5.2 yards per carry and 96 yards per game) 13 catches for 86 yards.  16 total TD's

Kam Martin 46 rushes for 310 yards (6.7 yards per carry)

Just keep Kerryon healthy and he should keep the string of 1,000 yard rushers under Malzahn alive.  How many years now?

On a side note, I heard something this morning about Army West Point. (I guess that's what the foosballz team is going by now)  They're having the rare good year, sitting at 7-2.  The unique thing though, is that starting QB, Ahmad Bradshaw, has only completed 10 passes this season.  He has less than 4 pass attempts per game. And they're doing all this with a bunch of 270 pound O-linemen.
