So he wasn't smart enough to change anything up with a former coach on the oppositions side line?


Yeah it probably wasn't the brightest move on his part ,but using towels to cover signals up in the 2nd half was a pretty good on the spot move.

Jimbo Fisher: 'Auburn got a couple of our signals, but that's our fault'

In the second half of the BCS Championship Game, Florida State coaches brought out towels to hide their signals.

Jimbo Fisher said Auburn had gotten some of FSU’s signals, so the Seminoles adjusted.

But Fisher didn’t bring it up to call out Auburn. A reporter asked Fisher about the towels coming back out, and Fisher put the blame on his own team.

“They had a couple of our signals a couple times and were getting to them. That happens, people do it, and that's our fault,” Fisher said. “You've got to change them, constantly rotate them, being able to get them in different ways. That's part of the game. I don't have a problem with that.”

It was pretty obvious in the AU-UGA game as well. In the first half- the AU DL under Garner (former UGA coach) was nearly beating the center's snap off the ball. Once UGA changed up the snap count after halftime, there were a whole lotta offsides penalties and the AU DL didn't look quite so prescient.

As Jimbo said, just the name of the game and adjust.
