Is anyone else concerned about how many
Nov 5, 2018, 10:08 AM
|

points our defense is giving up in the 2nd half of games?
-Louisville scored 13 of their 16 points in the 2nd half -FSU scored all 10 of their points in the 2nd half -NCSU scored all 7 of their points in the 2nd half -Wake scored all 3 of their points in the 2nd half
BC marks the beginning of championship season this for the Tigers and our defense needs to be sharp for all 4 quarters and not let opposing offenses take over late in games. If we don't correct this trend, eventually it's going to cost us big time.
I hope Brent Venerables and Joey Batson get this fixed immediately.

The KO return for a TD was the biggest disappointment...
Nov 5, 2018, 10:14 AM
|
|
At that point in the game, the KO team was made-up of fourth stringers and practice squad players but it's like Dabo said, they have helmets and shoulder pads too.

One of the writers for a Louisville newspaper predicted a score of 63 - 3. At one point during the game, that was the score. But then Dabo put in volunteers from the stands.

The bigger question is with all your starters only playing half a game, are they going to have the stamina to play a full game when you get to the playoffs?

Do you think we should them in for the whole scar game no matter what the score is? We do need to test our stamina for the ACCCG the next Saturday. If you have any connections perhaps they can get muscoot to announce that he's OK with this.

Dabo actually needs to leave his starters in more beginning with the upcoming game. BC may be a seventeen point underdog, but the staff and players really need to get a feel for having to compete beyond half time or merely early third quarter. Let BAMA experience running out of energy late in games in the CFP. Personally I want Jakie and company and their coaching staff to experience a clean old fashioned "tail kickin" November 24th to the tune of 70 to 10 or better to shut up their loudmouthed fans who still long for the return of the OBC - "skip town Spurrier."
Go Tigers!

All defenses play half a game
Nov 5, 2018, 10:39 AM
[ in reply to Re: Is anyone else concerned about how many ] |
|
the offense plays the other half (plus or minus depending on how much special teams are on the field and how often the jumbo package is used on offense).
No wonder y'all suck at footballing if you can't even understand these simple concepts.

Just to make sure. Of course pull all of the seniors with 2 minutes to play during a specially called time out.

Sorry 09, but you haven't been watching. We keep scoring when our 2's, 3's, and 4's come in the game. Our 4th string RB (#23-Dixon) rushed for over 100 yards and did not enter the game until late. We have no worries about playing the subs that have earned the right to play after putting in the work.
And don't tell Muschamp how it should be done, because we like owning the coots every year.

Because they did most of their scoring in the second half. Maybe we should start giving up points in the first half and shutting people down the second half.

This is why we have to dig up Nebraska's S&C coach from the 1970's, assuming he is still coaching. Those hosses had some serious beef, like nothing any one had seen up until that point at the college level.

Perhaps one should be more concerned about the sum of those fourth quarter points.
13+10+7+3 = 33

My biggest concern is that we regularly lose the TOP battle. We're going to have to start calling plays that allow us to score more slowly so that we can keep our defense fresh.
Perhaps we could just kneel on first down each series so that we can eat up more clock.
