Front Page Story: Something to prove


Aug 14, 2012, 9:08 AM

 
Something to prove

Defensive back Xavier Brewer said he feels like the entire defense has something to prove and not repeat the mistakes of 2011. Full Story »

Awesome

Never get complacent, good is the enemy of great. I love that he said another championship is their minimum for this year.

Chunk play = Kevin Steele not realizing that it's freaking hard to run man-to-man defense on every play at any level. Especially at the college level.

I'm more than excited to get back to a 4-2-5 matchup zone look.

I believe he said all the safeties and DB's were sub-4.5 sec. in the 40 yd. dash. Pretty speedy, and they need to be. I love the way our players interview. Tese are great young men who will contribute much on the field and in their lives, IMO.

Ready for the season to start. I think we will be better

than most people are predicting. I like coming in under the radar.

I'm not sure how #13 in the country is "under the radar".

^^^ What he said! *******

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

#13... and yet somehow people think we lose to


Aug 14, 2012, 11:37 AM

FSU, Auburn, SoCar, maybe GT, Maybe NCSU...

Doesn't make any sense to me.

This is the point I was trying to make. No respect!!!


Aug 14, 2012, 2:08 PM

granted you have to earn the respect, and they have not lately.

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

It's like people saying Dabo is still underrated


Aug 14, 2012, 11:39 AM [ in reply to Re: Ready for the season to start. I think we will be better ]

doesn't make sense.

While we did win a championship it was mostly on the backs


Aug 14, 2012, 3:25 PM

of the offense. D did shut down VT, so I'll give credit where credit is due. Defense has to get better as we're not going to surprise people as much as we did last year. I hope Boyd's long TD run is on that board. This article failed to mention our struggles with mobile QB's.

It wasn't all bad last year though. We had some nice plays from time to time from the D.

i like the attitude. you never get beat deep. no runs over 10 yds and no passes over 20 yds is a good goal. this guy is right about the secondary last year. reroute-reroute-reroute!
