conservative play calling. We have nothing to lose. He better bring everything, including the kitchen sink. Plus try to get more than FG's in the red zone. That's about all I have to say about that.

your continuous whining about Jones pose the rest of off
He heard you the first hundred fizzleing times!

Was there a bus crash I'm not aware of? How are all of these guys too hurt to play after a bye week?

Kerbyson's elbow kept him out of the UGA game and is still not well - can he get the power in it to be effective?  I doubt it.
Thomas has been battling injuries to the knee and ankle all year.  I think he has a better shot to start of the two.

Crowder? Looks like Jones, Hall, Wiesman, Thomas, and Kerbyson

I don't think Kerbyson or Thomas will go

Over/under on how many snaps it takes before Crowder gets planted on his ass in the backfield? I'll go with 5.

I've completely lost patience with Butch's decisions as to who plays on the OL. 100%. It is inexcusable that Crowder sees the field unless we are just totally out of able bodies.

I do not disagree at all

Wat? I thought we'd be getting healthier with the bye and all . . . who got hurt?

IT looks like one of the two kids (Hall) will play the OL.  Also, it looks like Crowder over Jones for the RG position (Crowder at LG, Wiesman at RG).  At WR it seems Williams is banged up, who knows with North.  For all the whining about WR rotation we have only been playing five (5) the last 2-3 games (Malone, Williams, Smith, Jennings and Pearson).  Our 6th WR has been Kamara.  We are supposed to get back Johnson and possibly North back this week.  Johnson won't stretch defenses but he runs good routes and catches the ball, something we need against bamer.

On defense there is still some question about the health of Phillips and Burnett, though with him it seems the news is better.

Already have a round of golf in this morning

bamer SUCKS. period. dot.

'nuf said

Avoid the rush, HATE bamer early and often.

Ridley is very talented and could burn us this year - but the defense's first priority should be to slow down their run.

IMO Cam should shadow Ridley wherever he lines up, similar to Treadmill last year and take our chances with Moseley/Martin on the opposite side (think we spend a lot of time in base, cover 1 with Randolph playing essentially as a 4th LB)

The Swamp wasn't his only appearance at UT. I agree that he probably wasn't as bad as he appeared during the first half of that game at UF, but he wasn't and isn't an SEC quarterback.

He was the starting QB last year against Bamer, till replaced by Dobbs

sometimes a change in the venue is worth more than any coach.  Wish him the best-from what I saw of him he was a good character person and in life that goes a long way.

He and is family are good folk.  Was fortunate to spend some time with his family before the ill-fated UF start and once again later that year.

But in reality he would be 3rd team, at best, this year on the Hill.

well. It's amazing what coaching can do. Why can one coach get this out of him and another one can't?ftp://http://sports.yahoo.com/news/pat-narduzzi-no-25-pitt-ranked-ahead-schedule-202910539--ncaaf.html

If you have watched any of their games (I've watched good portions of three games) he isn't playing all that well.

I live outside St Louis

Assuming you are not in East St Louis

I'll give you a shout as I head for Columbia from Lambert next month

Puppies win 9-6 in a real barn burner, played in a morgue 

6-6 5:40 left in the 4th and the puppies just missed a chip shot FG.
The crowd is most definitely NOT in the game.

Waiting on droner and Holler as well.

Also, we need one of your specials next Saturday as well

A key difference between aTm and the VOLS is that we have a running QB.  If they run a spy on Dobbs I hope we roll out and throw to a TE or RB in the area vacated by the spy.  Do that a few times and they start playing more honest.

[LOUD!]

Neyland is rocking again!

I was concerned after the Arky loss but the fans came through
That last drive it was LOUD!

Anyone going?

 

It is interesting how the move of a manager has impacted the two teams

Maybe the glasses are a factor ...

2006..When we went to Athens and were down big first half like 20 something to 13ish and came back and spanked them hard..like 54-37? And they turned off the score board as soon as the game ended and two UGA fans were arrested for fighting each other in the parking lot after their disappointing beat down..lol

Final score 51-33

The puppies were up 24-7 with 4:50 left in the half and the VOLS drove down and Foster scored (1st of his 3 on the night) TDs to bring us within 10 just before the half and then we lit it up in the 2nd half.  We were still trailing going into the 4th when we scored, then blocked the punt early in the 4th.

After spending the night high fiving the blimp driver Emeril and I joined the orange faithful who out numbered the puppy (non band wagon) fans at the end.  Afterwards a most enjoyable walk through downtown Athens where the puppy students were too despondent to say anything.

A very enjoyable night

which describes the Shy Tuttle "clip". 

FIFY

That was true last year as well. That lousy Florida team we should have beaten last year, which was still coached by the caveman Muschamp, crushed uga 38-20 later in the year.

It seems uga is overated just about every year.  They have not won the East since 2012 but they still manage to get ranked every year.  The way CFB works is that once a reputation is established, it takes a while to change.  Reporters and other voters are always looking backward.

But get this...uga was overated last year, they were overated this year, but....WE BEAT THEM THIS YEAR!

That's progress right there bubba.   

Talent wise they are not overrated IMO, though they are a bit young on defense this year.  However, CMR always tends to pull a loss out of the hat at least once a year.

Don't forget, we were present at the swamp when he was sent off as the UF coach, with a LOSS
