Excellent execution of Lane Kiffin's patented career blueprint.

That or he's the one fat mother f'er who actually knows what the gnomes meant by ???

Anyone who says Arkansas abandoned the run didn't actually watch the game.

1st half pass plays = 40%
2nd half pass plays = 32%

1st half rushing average = 6.6 ypc*
2nd half rushing average = 3.8 ypc

*not counting the fake punt.

Arkansas ran more in the 2nd half while averaging fewer yards per carry. They didn't change their offensive game plan. It stopped working.

quote:

---

The hogs lost because they got away from their game plan. They were dominating yall along the lines of scrimmage for most of that game.

---

They ran 25 times for 94 yards in the 2nd half and overtime. 3.76 yards per carry. They only passed the ball 27 times all game.

14 of the 25 2nd half runs went for 3 or fewer yards.

In their last 7 rushes, none went further than 6 yards, and 5 of them went for 2 yards or less.

They didn't abandon the run or their game plan. It stopped working so well, including in OT where their O-Line got demolished.

Very enlightening and carries a LOT of weight coming from a team that barely beat a team that has not won a conference game in almost two years.

It should carry some weight considering we beat the team you dropped a game to 52-28. :lol:

That's a good point. Bert definitely went retarded at the end there. He threw the ball like ten plays in a row.

This is Bert's play calling in the 4th Quarter and overtime by drive.

They didn't pass it 10 times at the end, much less 10 times in a row.

Holy cow LSU fans. The rustle is real. :lol:

Has a QB rating that would put him at 8th in the SEC if he was a starter, all of one in front of him are Seniors. Still has a higher QB rating than any of your quarterbacks.

Forgot, Aggies are really sensitive for a bunch of smack talkers.

No, you're just dumb trying to act as though our freshmen are under-performing. One of the reasons we're better than expected is because they have performed as hoped/needed.

quote:

---

Yes Myles garret is overrated. I surely don't see him right now being as good as Clowney was. Yup definitely overrated and not worth a damn. If he's not Clowney and getting 20 sacks this year he couldn't even play on vandy's team.

---

Clowney had 8 sacks his freshman year. 13 his sophomore year. 3 his senior year. He never had 20 sacks in a season.

Garrett has 5.5 4 games into his Freshman season. He's already beaten Clowney's senior season total and is on pace to beat Clowney's best year sometime around the 3rd quarter of the Auburn game.

To all of the people saying Fournette, name me which one of your head coaches would have not accepted Fournette fax papers back on NSD?

All of them would. Irrelevant though since this is specifically about people who are over-rated or under-performing.

Nobody is calling him a rapist. He isn't Winston. We're just calling him an idiot.

Dude maybe miles is giving Hilliard the bulk of the work because he's a senior. Dumbass

---

Or maybe it's because Hilliard is more consistent. LF averages 3.7 yards/carry against MSU and Wisconsin and 20 of his 56 yards came off of one play. 10 of his 15 carries against MSU/Wisc went for 3 yards or less. That's not particularly helpful for a team that is using a power running game.

Also, you guys used Ridley as your feature back in 2010, so Miles is not afraid to use one.

Get over it, there are reasons LF isn't getting more carries that have nothing to do with his class.

They have more to do with 8 carries for 18 yards against Wisconsin.

With all that being said.

I lean more toward Driskel :lol:

As stated before, it's less an issue of the SEC defenses collapsing, and more a change in offensive identity within the league mixed a continued determination by analysts and fans to put way too much emphasis on total yardage.

Go back to the times before Petrino arrived at Arkansas and you essentially have an entire league running nothing but power running offenses -- offenses that slow down the game, reduce plays and reduce drives. Back then it gave the SEC too much credit defensively and not enough offensively, now it's the opposite.

Stat lines don't ever take numbers into account on a per drive or per play basis, and since now you have most games with more possessions and more plays stat lines look a lot worse.

For example, 350 yards and ~24 points allowed on 12 drives now turns into 420 yards and ~28 points on 14 drives. Same performance, 20% increase in yardage given up.

Conference power is always fluid as programs have good and bad years. The difference though is the gulf in resources, exposure, and support that the SEC has. That general trend isn't going to change any time soon even if it doesn't lead to SEC dominance every single year.

if he wins 7 games, he is PROBABLY safe, and deservedly so.

---

If he goes 7-4, yes he will be back next year. That likely means losses to LSU, Florida State, Georgia, and South Carolina. But with that kind of record, he will still be on the hot seat going into next year. a 3-9, 7-4, 7-5 type of stretch will not keep you a job at Florida.

quote:

---

IF the Gators have another losing season, Muschamp WILL be on the hot seat NEXT year.

---

If he has another losing season, he's probably gone. He MIGHT be able to survive 5-6, but that's still a stretch.

Zook only lasted 3 years and his worst season was 7-5. Last year was their first losing season since 1979. Surviving two of them in a row? What coach at a college football program of Florida's caliber has survived back to back losing seasons?

TL:DR If he doesn't get two bowl bids and a top 25 ranking in December through the next two years, he will be gone.

Anyone saying Saban hasnt seen his record at Michigan State.

Even if the Big XII doesn't get a team in the playoff and no conference gets more than one, it still doesn't guarantee 2 SEC teams in.

Notre Dame is possible, but highly unlikely due to their schedule. I seriously doubt they end the season with only 1 loss, much less undefeated. But they're ND and the committee will vote them in if at all possible. Frankly, 11-1 Notre Dame would probably be deserving.

BYU has nothing left on their schedule of note. The toughest 4 games left on their schedule are Boise, Cal, Virginia, and UCF. They could very well be undefeated.

Nevada, Central Michigan, and Northern Illinois could all feasibly finish undefeated. We don't know how the selection process would look on undefeated mid majors. CMU even has 2 more power conference cellar dwellers on their schedule to point to and say "hey, we can hang with the big boys!" if they do win out. Of course it would be bullcrap, but the selectors may be dumb enough to fall for it. If a 1 loss MAC team can get into the Orange bowl, an undefeated one can certainly get into the playoff.

The biggest issue I would see though is if Stanford and USC have a rematch in the Pac-12 championship and Stanford wins (11-1 Stanford vs 12-0 USC). You know if that happens the media will be slobbering all over the possibility of USC vs Stanford part III. (there are other scenarios with 2 PAC teams in the playoff, but I don't think the media heat would be as strong for any other scenario.)
