re: Seeing a bunch of spring football threads. Are you happy with your team so far?

quote:

Teams were forced to short unsuccessful drives giving UGA shorter fields.

Since most, if not all, of your ideas are NOT factually supported, you are going to need to provide stats to prove your point. Until you do, the assumption is you are FOS.

Fact is, UGA was the best in the nation at LONG drives, once again killing another one of your false narratives.

quote:

---

Monken was an air raid coach that said he was bringing the air raid to Athens…. And obviously didn’t.

---

"And obviously didnt" happen is what you lied about.

This is what he said:

quote:

---

Monken, who Kirby Smart hired as Georgia’s offensive coordinator in January, explained his basic strategy Tuesday.

“How do you get explosive plays? Well, first off, your ability to run the football,” Monken said during a digital conference call with reporters. “Putting the defense in run-pass conflicts is the No. 1 way to gain explosives, either hitting open space in the intermediate levels or over the top. The next part is getting really good skill players into space, skill players that can make people miss. At every level, that’s what we’re trying to accomplish.”

---

What is explosive?

quote:

---

Monken said he defines an “explosive play” as a run of 12 or more yards and a pass of 16 or more yards. He believes that an offense should produce an explosive on at least one of every eight plays, or about 10 per game.

---

Mission accomplished.

What are you talking about? Where I linked a UGA article quoting him about bringing the Air Raid to Athens? You believe I bought a domain and wrote a fake story, published it years ahead of time, just so I could post it on a random football forum? That is how you believe that happened?

So you don’t understand what the air raid offense is? Typical. And using a quote from after he was there a year vs when he was 1st hired in was a nice touch. I like it actually. Pretty much sums you up as a poster: bold statement, doesn’t happen, change the narrative to fit the results instead of the original narrative and claim it was always that way. No wonder you are a liberal.

Feel free to find another quote, but you don’t have one. Another one of your lies exposed.

I posted when I made the original statement about the air raid.

Monken, considered an expert in the “Air Raid” style of offense, did not call plays with the Browns last season.

A Dawgnation story from when he was hired talked about passing to win and bringing the Air Raid expert to Athens and Jamie Newman being a perfect fit for the Air Raid.


Then preseason Heisman winner Newman quit football (what is he doing these days) and the USC Goober can’t miss 5* Monken wanted shite the bed, and all the pas to win was replaced with defense and a game manager.

You never posted a literal quote m from monken saying what you claimed he said because it didn’t exist and still doesn’t exist. You imagined it in your head.

So moving on to more of your BS…..

Why did the running offense of the vols pass so often in the uga and Carolina games?

Here is a different Monken quote from a UGA reporter, discussing his throw to win “Air Raid”;
Monken, considered an expert in the “Air Raid” style of offense, did not call plays with the Browns last season.

“Really what I took away from (the Air Raid) was being able to throw to win,’’ Monken said after taking the Browns job last season in a Cleveland.com story.

“That really to me was the Air Raid. You had a certain amount of run game, you ran a lot of the same concepts and you could throw to win. That was really it. Like any offense, it works a lot better if you have good players.”

It works a lot better if you have good players…. At that time he thought he had Newman and Daniels at QB and UGA had just brought in 5 WRs. Neither QB was was worth a damn and none of the WRs panned out at UGA. Ergo, no Air Raid pass to win. Couple that with Kirby micromanaging the O, and despite UGA hiring an Air Raid “Guru” they couldn’t recruit or keep QBs to run it nor WRs needed to run it.

So that’s two different sourced quotes supporting my statement. And the stats support it.


As to why the Vols passed in the UGA and UofSC games? UGA front seven was light years better than their DBs and a quick passing attack was the best chance to move the ball. Vs UofSC the Vols were playing from behind all game.

This isn’t complicated? Why could you not figure this out without needing it spoonfed to you?

---

That was the part about UGA.

quote:

---

Were the vols playing from behind against UGA?

---

UGAs super duper prolific high speed O put up 27 points against the Vols terrible D. The game was always in reach.

“That was a weird comment about Scar.”
The final score was 38-63, the Vols D laid down early and often.



Did you watch the games? You usually are a bit better than this.

Hilarious. I guess this proves no such quote from him exists if an out of context quote well before he came to uga is all you got. You just hoped you wouldn’t get caught making shite up. You should know better by now.

Vs UofSC the Vols were playing from behind all game.

Did you miss the uga game? Vols were playing from even more behind in that one, and it could have been worse, which brings up another question you always avoid:

why did uga RUN so often in the 2nd half after THROWING all over the vols in the 1st half?
