re: The Fake Punt..

Posted by stinger78 on 1/1/09 at 8:57 pm
There are a lot of things that piss me off in a football game. Calling a fake punt on our own 20 yard line pissed me off. Losing 38-3 pissed me off. Having the fumble return for TD called back pissed me off. Having a fake punt go for a first down, when we needed the ball, pissed me off. Can y...

[quote]So a perfectly legal football play would result in illegal activity by a team coached by you... If they could have caught him to hit him in the first place you wouldnt be down by 35. [/quote] You completely missed the point of the post. Not surprising. If you touch a QB rough these ...
When you get beat by 35 points, it makes more sense to look inward than at the meany who just whupped you. Many Tech fans don't understand this. The player across the LOS is trying to demolish you every play. Why would I expect him to let up? The same goes for the opposing coach. As for our f...

I vote 2. Actually, it pissed me off, but I am of the opinion that, classy or not, we are on the field to play the game to the last whistle. Class is good, but you can neither legislate it, nor whine about it if it's absent. You just play the game. You fight fire with fire. Were I Johnson, ...

Great, great game, LSU!

Came over last night, but the board was locked. That was the best defensive front 7 I have ever seen 9and I've seen a lot)! Your Tigers just took control from the first drive, made us pay dearly for our stupid plays, and the game was out of reach by halftime. Took us completely out of our game. ...

Good luck, Tigers

I'm outa here to get down to the Dome. I wish you all the best, a good new year, and a good game. However, may the best team win. :cheers: It's been great talking with you the past coupla weeks, but now it's time to get it done on the field. GO JACKETS!!!...
It's a spread formation because of the OL splits and the 4 receivers outside the OT. Yes, the slots are tighter than Leach and Meyer have them, but they are there nonetheless. The QB is also under center. The reason the slots are tighter and the QB under center is because PJ's preference is a run...

Merry Christmas, Tigers!

[quote]I can't imagine a worse match up than G Tech's offense versus our defense. It is a nightmare scenario. Our defense gets confused and blows assignments against standard, run of the mill offenses. [/quote] That's right. You need to give up now. Just go ahead and have Les mail it in a...

[quote]Pretty sad when a coach who has run the option for 20+ years figures playing LSU is a good opportunity to work in some Run-n-shoot elements.[/quote] Johnson ran the run & shoot along with his option as OC at both GA Southern and Hawaii prior to moving to Navy.

Yes, the original statement was about talent, you are correct. However, there is another question (that you all are wringing your hands over) that is if all your talent will play as a unit. We will see on 12/31. As for your reference to the ACC, yes it is for sure true we have sucked in BCS gam...

Posted by stinger78 on 12/20/08 at 1:11 pm
Wake's a whole lot better - especially on D - than a lot of folks give them credit for. They lost a lot on O from last year, and they have never been a powerful offensive team, just consistent and steady like maybe a Vandy or USC(e). And Jim Grobe is an excellent coach. Navy has no D, and that is...

[quote]better players yes to everyone exept maybe georgia [/quote] Now I haven't seen LSU but on a couple of occasions this year and the D just didn't look good to me. On defense, I'm sure they're better than they looked, however, since they are the defending MNC. That ARK game was sad, however...
