Title: According to Brent, Bray will be "out for a while" Post by: PirateVOL on October 09, 2011, 06:09:15 EDT I have seen reports defining a while as 5 weeks. If accurate, that would be the candy game.
Simms is the starter and I'm comfortable with that. The question is, who is the B/U. Given Nash hasn't made much of an impact, do we abondon the RS plan and push Worley into the B/U role? If so, then he needs reps in the next two games to get his feet wet.

If Bray can't play most or all of the rest of the season,I see Tennessee going 5-7. I think Tennessee can beat Kentucky without Bray but Vanderbilt(really improved under their new Coach) has to be licking their lips.

Winnable, but tough. UK and MTSU should be givens. Those two teams are terrible, especially Kentucky. I no longer hold out any hope for being South Carolina or Arkansas. I probably would have said that even if Bray were healthy. Without him...forget it.

I'm good with Simms going against LSU, Bama and Arkansas since we're not going to win those, but I'm not sure he can beat anyone. His decision-making process is sloooow.

I know Simms was a starter at one point, but Simms is not a threat downfield. He's a game-manager. With no running game, we basically have no offense now. We don't have a defense good enough to lean on. I'm afraid it's going to be a long, long season. :frown: Title: Re: According to Brent, Bray will be "out for a while" Post by: BanditVol on October 10, 2011, 12:51:03 EDT I had hopes for Arkansas and USCe with Bray. Without him? Very tough.
But with him for most of the game, we played uga pretty close. Let's remember they hammered us 41-14 last year. I actually agree now with Vince Dooley, that uga has the best shot at the East. This is because their West schedule is pathetically weak. They play the Mississippi schools and Auburn...in other words, the bottom half of the West, and they have a great shot at beating Florida. In fact, unless Brantley is back, they will. Who else will beat Uga? Vandy? Unlikely. Speaking of which, those of you that think Vandy will beat us are not paying attention. They may have started strong out of the gate but the last two games are classic Vandy. Their defense is good. Really? They just gave up 34 points. I know that Florida has some challenges on D this year but does anyone really think that Vandy's D is better that Floridas? I say we beat em with or without Bray. 6-6 may be our fate, but we might go 7-5 with a few breaks.

I doubt we score 34 on 'em Title: Re: According to Brent, Bray will be "out for a while" Post by: GreggO on October 10, 2011, 02:41:51 EDT Missed seeing you yesterday, but we know you are taking care
of Carla right now. When I saw Bray's thumb, I texted E I thought it was broken. I've had a broken thumb and I cut the cast off after 3-4 weeks; of course my range-of-motion is screwed, but I. did't have the training staff and the bone growth stimulation stuff available now. I'd say 4-5 weeks is realistic. G. :powert: |
