What if we line up with all 3 QBs in formation, do some spinning pirouettes, fake an orbit motion reverse, and sling the rock to the flat to Shenker?

I don't know why, but I still have that Clemson ticket stub. I use it as a bookmark.

(edit) Lo and behold!

In those videos (which mean nothing) Zach looked best. Robby looked bad.

I like TJ. If he can keep his throws down, at the chest, he could do it. But man…

I am honestly more concerned about the injuries to our thin OL.

Give me Calzada with the late surge to win the job. He’ll win the job on Friday

From Hoke On Marcus Harris gaining more confidence

AUBURN – When Marcus Harris arrived at Auburn from Kansas over a year ago, Harris was filled with a level of uncertainty.

Harris, a Montgomery, Ala. native, was new. He shied away from vocal leadership and hesitated to speak up. In short, Harris’ confidence was lacking.

All that appears to be in the past.
“Last year, coming from Kansas, I didn’t want to change anything up since I didn’t know anybody,” Harris told the media on Wednesday. “I wanted to say something, but I was scared to say something because I felt like I wasn’t part of the team until I proved myself. This year I can say more and people are more open to listening to me.”

New year, new Harris, as his on-the-field skills are improving along with his off-the-field intangibles.

Harris recorded half his sacks and one-third of his tackles for loss in the final game of the regular season against Alabama.

He finished with one sack and two tackles for loss in the overtime loss. In the other 11 games, Harris recorded four tackles for loss and one sack. That inconsistency in pass rush and penetration became a huge emphasis for Harris during the offseason.

“I’ve been working on that this offseason,” Harris said on Thursday before practice. “I’m my biggest critic. Last year, I wasn’t happy with how I effected the quarterback. This year, that’s all I’m practicing on, plus getting more stop in the run game.”

New defensive line coach Jimmy Brumbaugh agrees with Harris’ self assesment.

“Marcus has done a good job of changing his game, mixing the power plus the explosion in what he’s doing,” Brumbaugh said.

Marcus Harris’ weight has climbed from around 260 pounds to around 300 pounds over the last three seasons. That additional weight and strength is paying dividends for Harris this fall.

“I’ve seen the improvement this fall camp with it. At first I was worried, but I’ve seen improvement and being in the gap more. I felt like it’s improved my game,” Harris said.

Auburn returns to the practice fields on Wednesday afternoon. The media viewing window that was scheduled was cancelled hours before practice.

I was there too, baw

I’ve never been more irritated with an offensive game plan. Only time I’ve ever booed at an auburn game. I was a big Gus supporter too.

I thought I was at a Central - Phenix City football game with that nonsense. In the early 90's Central used to run the wing-T and they'd absolutely abuse us. This was back when AHS football was trash. Gus even talks about wing-t concepts in his book. I was going to link a highlight video from that game but I thought better of it. One thing I did notice in the highlights is that Clemson looked a hell of a lot bigger than us.

I’d be less mad if he went out of bounds on that play.
