Recruiting Football Talk VII

Wow, not sure how to take that. He seems worried. Not sure I ever remember him begging for the fans to be loud.

He knows that Tennessee is still arguably the most important game on the schedule, especially to the boosters and older fans. If he loses back to back after dominating us for years, people will actually start to worry there. It’s really important for their season but also important for his mental health.

Saban begging his fans for crowd noise lol

 

[BigOrangeTrain]

he also played in a pro style offense…. we weren’t spreading the defense thin.

And Tee was still average to below average

 

[BigOrange15]

These coaches of major programs begging and pleading with their fans to bring the same energy and emotion we do at Neyland really warms my heart.

 

[BigSteve09]

he's telling the fans to be loud as hell because he knows how disruptive it is to our offense

Remember when UGA put out a "how to be loud" checklist before our game?

Yeah this is true.

Yep - that is one thing it will be interesting to watch how Heupel solves over time. Significant crowd noise does appear to be kryptonite to the offense.

I'm surprised enough were able to read it to bring the noise.

i agree with that

 

[rikberry31]

This can’t be serious. And if it is, I have no words.

cool

 

[rikberry31]

You said we have no one that could get by defenders and get real open like him. I think Squirrel and Nimrod are doing just fine getting open. Ramel is a different story and he is in a slump.

Nimrod has played one game, who knows what he will become. Squirrel has not been to the level of Tillman or Hyatt. Thorton is a bust so far. So Planet is correct.

I hate betting.

But I will be betting again tonight to break the cold streak

On Oct. 20, 1977, the Jacksonville, Florida-based band Lynyrd Skynyrd left Greenville, South Carolina, after a concert at the Greenville Memorial Auditorium, and boarded a chartered plane en route to Baton Rouge, Louisiana, where they were scheduled to perform the next night at Louisiana State University.

They didn't make it.

Near the end of the flight, the twin-engine Convair CV-240 ran out of fuel. After the pilot and co-pilot determined that the plane didn't have enough fuel to land at a nearby airport, they unsuccessfully attempted an emergency landing and crashed a few minutes before 7 p.m. in a wooded area near Gillsburg, Mississippi.

The crash took the lives of lead singer Ronnie Van Zant, guitarist Steve Gaines and backup singer Cassie Gaines.

You know, I remember Florida was the thorn in our side and I just expected to beat Bama.

I heard a Bama fan say in those days, "I don't think we will ever beat Tennessee again."

 

[VolsDoc81TX]

Yeah it should have read “near impossible to stop unless you have a clear talent advantage”, which uga did.

Your statement is unfinished.
Talent advantage, no DPI calls despite obvious DPI throughout the entire game by uga dbs. (As evidenced by the coach bragging about it).

If I were an official with morals and heard kirby say that, then I would make sure that every single DPI was called on this year’s game to teach the coach that telling your players to cheat is a costly game plan. Unfortunately, I am not an official. Also, he likely got away with that strategy with the blessing and collaboration of the SEC office.

Nick is scared.

 

[rikberry31]

Absolutely

Yes, and as I said before, he played his a$$ off.

 

[VolsDoc81TX]

Is that real or an elaborate fake?

Van Zant had stated many times he would be lucky to live to be 30 years of age....

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

Thats what they ought to do, but I feel like Saban won't trust that after last year cause he spooked.

Seriously though...he and every coach could be thinking..."Why not let Tennessee run for 200+ since their passing game is so inept we will still hold them to less than 20?"

However...I think Saban vould see that we could have scored 35+ last week and not wanna gamble on Joe and Co to keep blowing opportunities.

He will probably just see how it goes and adjust..and I think he has a pretty good defense to do it with.

It's crazy to me that the wreck happened because of gas. I always thought something technical must have happened, but gas? Wtf man.

Bama is not dissimilar to aTm's defense, not as good up front. They will attack us in a similar manner as aTm. I think you will see a lot or single high coverage in an attempt to load the box. There will be opportunities down the field, hopefully we hit them. Tennessee's running success has started to affect the way defenses are playing us.

How hilarious would it be for us to come out and use the huddle, and then execute running the ball down their throats with Joe keeping it several times?!! If Joe will keep it early and often and lower the boom on a few dudes, they will not want to tackle him or anyone in the 2nd half. If we come out with a plan to run him early to get him into the flow of the game, we will win the game.
