UAB is legitimate-

ly one of the top 10 worst teams in the country. How can we not be beating the hell out of them?

by wvvol on Sep 13, 2008 2:32 PM EDT reply actions 0 recs

this is why

1. We’re not taking advantage of our offensive line and running the ball
2. Crompton is inconsistent
3. Stockard (whatever the TE’s name is) can’t catch the ball

What is the deal

with Stocker?
Three passes back to back?

Either get it together or bring in the second stringer for the game so Stocker learns to catch balls that are thrown in his lap

USC. Mitch Mustain was driven out of Arkansas by Houston Nutt. I’d like to see them when and rub it in Nutts face.

I’m torn on Michigan and ND. I like ND, and I like Michigan, but both teams have had rough years and need a win. Should be a good game either way

strategy for next weekend?

Run the ball using all 3 of UT’s backs.

Eat up the clock w/the running game.

Keep the defense fresh as possible.

Keep Tebow and Co. off of the field.

Say what you want, but

Nebraska and Oklahoma used to hang 45 on teams with it. If it’s run right, it’s hard to stop. And it eats the clock up keeping the other team off the field.

son, I'm onboard with it!

hell, i run it on Sony Play Station II with the Navy team and I love it.

I think it might be difficult to take advantage with it against teams that move fast laterally on defense (read, most of SEC)
