Do you think the improved communication is about reading the defenses and making adjustments? I would think that's much easier when the crowd is quiet.

I would think that Sims having to rely on communication from Kiffin, rather than reading it himself, would slow the processing of information and make disguising easier.

I noticed that as well. In fact I was pissed at how effective y'all's HUNH was compared to ours especially because we've run it for three years and y'all have run it for 8 months.

If Jones and Smith make life miserable for Simms none of this matters!!!! Bama will try to run and throw slants/wr screens, Simms won't have time for anything else(or shouldn't)!

the thing about this is that it is extremely hard to bring Blake down, and when he is flushed out, he has some of his best plays.
