Questionable Thoughts About 2013, and Beyond

Looking back over our 2013 Season, opening game. Clemson dropped their defensive end into coverage as you describe AD5.

Also the Tampa Bay pro team allows Gerald McCoy to drop into coverage from his defensive tackle position. Many times out of the 3/4.

Little bit like what is being said here, and this is really good reading . . . . any number of ways to confuse the offense as Wartdawg said above. Think I interpreted that right.

One thing that comes to my mind . . . . again . . . . is Nick Saban's way of preparing his football team year after year. Running the 3/4 a lot, his offense practices against this every pad day. That in my way of thinking is preparation. Alabama's offensive line has their set of "tricks" that many teams don't do and don't know how to do. Smart coach that Saban dude. Makes his offensive line do it right or feel the wrath of Saban. Not only does he practice that way, he plays that way. Not afraid to get into a players face when silly mistakes are made. Players continue to make their way to Tuscaloosa, apparently they are receptive to as some refer to him . . . . "Satan" and his methods. Same way of coaching is going on with one of Saban's disciples, Jimbo Fisher and his defensive coordinator who learned much under the Tuscaloosa system.

Why would anyone go to a pay site when they can get "real" football talk on this board. I said that.

Just superior reading provided by knowledgable folks.

Couldn't agree more Buc. This is the best board there is, no doubt. Really enjoy all of it.

Speaking of Saban, see where his OC left. Wouldn't be surprised if Bobo gets a call. Many UGA fans might get what they want. Not this fan though. Odds are probably pretty good that Kiffin will end up with the job, but wouldn't totally shock me to see bama find out if there is any interest.

GO DAWGS

Here is one of my just asking questions. Been a real good thread lots of stuff passed around

3-4. Or. 4-3. We play a mix. Now we have had much discussion on how the lone bright spot has

Been CCW and the work he has done with our D line the numbers show improvement

That being said it then becomes an issue with the backside players

Looking at our dismal numbers from our secondary might support that or if we can't get it done on

The backside matters not how the D line sets up. Overall D won't progress until we get more bang

From our DB's Go Dawgs

It appears Franklin is leaving Vandy so maybe that will get back to a guaranteed win.

Franklin landing at Penn State could cause urban meyer problems. Franklin won't take the BS from urban.

No doubt, Franklin has done wonders at Vandy.
I frequently talk with one of my neighbors, brother of Brannon Sutherland, who played for Franklin.
He has made that team believe they are going to win.
He has changed the whole culture at Vanderbilt.
Still a jerk, in my opinion.
