What happens when you have a great coach

Our DL was getting great push in the first half. They were getting such a great push they were over shooting the ball carrier.

can't wait what to see what a full Bielema line can do
This thread is a product of a full Bielema line.
It has been entertaining for sure.

Designed plays with the traps, the push that Auburn was getting was on the outside and not in the middle. Used the Au aggression against them.
Did you even watch the game?

This thread went well with my morning coffee.
There is no way to spin this hypocrisy. What a jackass.

It wasn't that Arky lost the game. I expected that. I can't get my head around how things were so different between the first half and second half of last week's game, how the running game was so easily abandoned, or how the defense doesn't appear to have improved at all.
You and me both. But what does the OC have to do with Bielema? He definitely doesn't call plays. He's not going to fire Chaney after the 1st game.
They tried to run that same trap that had been so successful in the 1st half, but Auburn's DTs either just manned the f up to a ridiculous degree or Ellis made an adjustment. Our coaches basically have admitted that they tried to roll with the same strategy as the 1st half (don't fix what ain't broken), it's just that Auburn had the answer.
No excuse for the defense other than just lack of talent and/or experience in the back 7. We're going to get torched throughout the year unless some of our freshman DBs win jobs.

Couple that with his remarks that seem designed to provide a diversion or an excuse and part of me wonders if the crowd that thinks he was a bad fit or is in over his head is right.
I think you'd need to read all of his comments to gauge this. If he takes responsibility in 99% of his comments but in one it SEEMS like he's skirting it somehow, I don't see why the 1% outweighs the 99.

So AU was getting a push in the first half? It's either one or the other, not both. Like I said......Auburn got a great push in the first half. Adjustments were made at the half and they just clogged holes in the second half.

It's not a "push" when the OL is directing you that way. The adjustment was to stop letting that happen. To stop over penetrating.

I remember seeing Angelo Blackson and Jeff Whitaker flash into the backfield, only to be shielded away from the running back...which left a huge hole from their gap.

It's called "rain."
Rain is historically seen as an advantage for power running teams. Especially for teams with the "3 best running backs in the SEC".
So rain is now an "excuse" for the second half? A power running team... really??

Exactly. You could tell those holes were kinda fool's gold. You could have driven a Kia through them. OL don't make holes THAT big, that consistently. An out of position defense will, though.

I think he was just pointing out that the 1st half was absent rain while the 2nd wasn't. Which may have explained a bit of a difference that was seen from Arkansas in the 2nd half.

Can't really use crayons for ya here, but I will try and slowly s p e l l it out fer ya.
The fact that Au was getting was being allowed due to the design of the plays.
Second half adjustments were made on both sides and Au clearly made the better adjustments.
I will try and talk slower fer ya nect time.

Whether it was "allowed" or not, our DL lived in the Arky backfield. I don't get why that is hard to understand. I also pointed out that is why the halftime adjustments were made.......because our DL was over shooting the ball carrier. Exactly who needs the crayons again?

Which is exactly what they wanted from your DL.

Okay... glad one of you can decipher his incoherent ramblings and disconnected points. That guy must have rode the shortest bus in all of Arkansas.
