Was in the same business class with him in fall 2011, taught by Tim Chandler. Good guy, though his attendance was sparse. The professor didn’t seem to mind, that team was incredible that calendar year
I say this with a heavy heart, but this is probably the worst post I’ve seen on the rant in the past decade

Completely agree with this.

But to be fair, he’s probably hearing similar chants towards Norvell if he’s been attending FSU games this season
Delpit’s best game was against Clemson. Was finally able to heal between the Georgia game and the national championship and he balled out.

I don’t even need to acknowledge the OU game. He could have sat that game out too

We need D line depth, can she play?
Considering most pageant winners these days are obsese, male, or both, this is a refreshing alternative.

So, yes, I suppose IWHI

Damn, DeBoer landed a prize DT before LSU could

re: Thoughts on Tissot watches?

I have 2 Tissot’s and I love them. Very clean, no-frills and aren’t gaudy. Affordable too, relatively.

Also recommend Norqain if you want something a step up from Tissot.
Larry’s gonna need Tommy John surgery after seeing this
Best surprise was Bama 2022, hands down.

Disappointment? I’d argue 2023 Ole Miss, sheerly because of the defensive debacle. Still astonished we scored 49 and still lost

re: What is Brant Denny stadium like?

Posted by OrangeWhip on 11/1/23 at 10:23 am
Went in 2009 and in 2011 for the LSU games.

The stadium itself is very nice, almost has a pro feel to it, but not nearly as corporate.

They didn't really have much "filler" before the games, no gimmicks or DJ's or anything. The pregame was nice but doesn't have the rowdiness that LSU has once the band takes the field.

I can see why there's a sense that it's a bit hollow, despite 100,000 + fans, because they've become so accustomed to winning. However in 2011, the crowd intensity was comparable to some of the biggest games in Tiger Stadium.

I don't think much of Tuscaloosa, but BDS is worth the visit especially for this game. Probably the best stadium in the West outside of the good guys

Surprised this hasn’t been mentioned. Did they ever catch the sniper?

I agree entirely. The offensive line has room to improve with run blocking, but I have confidence they'll find a groove with the rotation. They did a great job with pass protection, so hard to poke too many holes with their performance (except Campbell's penalties).

My only concern is the short yardage playcalling. I get it, Daniels thrives in the shotgun, but we have to get more creative here, especially near the goal line. Nothing wrong with getting under center and the classic QB sneak, it can't be any less dangerous than when Daniels doesn't slide. Hell, maybe we try some wildcat with Kaleb Jackson?

Chicory in coffee is disgusting, tastes like dirt
I applaud Kelly for being adaptable and understanding that moving his best player back into a more natural position is mutually beneficial for Perkins and the team. I think the experiment at MLB was well intended.

Frankly, it’s a blessing we played a quality opponent such as FSU week 1 to identify this mistake. We now have time to course correct and gradually improve the defensive scheme as we get into SEC play

House's reliance on zone coverage

Posted by OrangeWhip on 9/6/23 at 12:32 pm
Been listening to some of the talking heads trying to explain why we weren't seeing some of the younger DB's, namely Stamps, Welch, and Harris. One of the theories is that "those guys aren't familiar with zone schemes, particularly Harris". I seem to remember we were very zone-reliant last year as well.

Is this a byproduct of our lack of depth/talent? Or is this just what House prefers?

Either way, it's evident we're leaving more physically gifted guys on the bench in favor of smaller, slower, yet more experienced players.

Really would like to see some fresh blood out there to handle these challenging matchups.
