I had a great time there while in college. What's her major? Tell her to take Dr. Barnett for any History classes she has (and that he teaches). He is the best history professor, period. Also, Dr. Milliron is the one she should look at for psychology. He was really engaging and made the class enjoyable.

She is majoring in psychology/sociology. Hasn’t 100% nailed it down yet. Thinks she wants to go into forensics psychology, or homeland security, or possibly be a psychiatrist. Thanks for the advice. Going to have lunch with her today and I will pass it on.

Just talking to a friend up here laughing bc we are putting a freshman on Sills!! I just smiled and said yea...

Sills is good but you can take him out of games. Watched several games where he didn't see the ball until late when they were having to comeback from big deficits. I definitely hope Taylor covers him because I think Taylor size and physical ability will frustrate him more than Buchanon. I could see sills eating peanuts all day if Buchanon covers him

Tae and Thompson are more aggressive on 50/50 balls than some of the older guys. The coaches think a more aggressive style of play is more important than experience, especially against a WR like Sills. We'll probably see some FR mistakes, but hopefully some INTs, too. Our secondary is going to be better than expected, IMO.

I think our LBs are going to wreak havoc on Grier all day. Darrell Taylor has stood out to me in the practice thread videos. He looks fast and mean. I think Grier gets sacked multiple times and is pressured into a few bad throws that result in picks. I can't wait until Saturday! GBO!!! WGWTFA!!!!!

If everyone remembers correctly we made Grier look pretty bad for the large majority of the game against the Gators until we crapped the bed in the last couple minutes and the long TD was more Antonio Calloway than Grier. Grier just does not scare me for some reason and he may prove me wrong but I think they are getting a lot of love for a 7-6 team that beat nobody last year.

Our DBs usually just give 10 yards of cushion and 50/50 that they can make the tackle so I'm fine with the young guys.

i'm fine with it too, and goes to the point someone i was talking with the other day about the overall defensive game plan likely being on the aggressive side to begin with. i don't think this will be a gameplan that says "sit back, and react". i think we'll try to dictate as much as possible and take certain things away.

Yeah, I think they know what we're going to do-- and we don't think they can stop us. Old school SEC football against the Big 12 air attack.

well, i certainly think that if we're gonna win, it'll be because our offense keeps us in the game. i think our defense may play better, on the whole, than we think. but they're gonna give up some plays, and WVU will score. stats may not look very nice, but there will be situations over the course of the game that can/will impact the result. you don't hvae to stop them the whole game.

may just need to get those 3-4 stops that matter though. or whenever you have an opportunity to get a turnover, don't waste it.
