GT had a lot of injuries over the offseason, but the squad that started at ND was largely the same that had started the two previous games. It's been during and since the ND game that GT's really been plagued with injuries, I think we have like the second-most injured players in the country.

I mean... if yall wanted to just call the game on Saturday and everybody just come party in Clemson and get drunk and watch the other games, I'd be down.

Raku posted:Driskel made some bad choices last year but he also played like he was in front of a firing squad. poo poo like him just pulling his arm back against Mizzou and sending the ball flying backwards, along with a ton of other horrible plays, speaks a bit to the kind of attitude Muschamp had towards the offense. Not only did he shackle them in hopes of having his defense win games, but that whole "constantly exploding, impatient, furious ape" persona didn't exactly help their confidence. They were bad because he was bad. In fact, they were considerably deeper on the line and a few skill positions last year iirc. gently caress Muschamp now, gently caress him forever. Just a total back-patting, Saban-wannabe piece of poo poo that swore he cleaned up the 'toxic' culture around UF football and continually blamed players for his own inadequacies. It warms the cold, dry cockles of my heart to see him giving up 400ypg to Jax St. with a defense full of blue chips.

He had some fantastic defenses while in Gainesville. Are the players at Auburn just not a fit for what he wants to do or something?

Spurrier revealed on his call-in show last night that Missouri likely deciphered our signals and knew most of our plays before we ran them, which a) explains a lot and b) is totally inexcusable. The worst part is that he didn't seem very surprised or upset about it, simply saying that we "need to do a better job" of hiding our signals and/or come up with new ones. Jesus, ya think? This offense is challenged enough without handing our opponents our playbook. It might be time to consider the notion that Spurrier's phoning it in now.

Yeah, I'm sure every FBS tries to crack the other team's playcalling signals. It's just a fact of the game that teams have to work around nowadays by changing their signals regularly.

He had some fantastic defenses while in Gainesville. Are the players at Auburn just not a fit for what he wants to do or something? The biggest thing was losing Carl Lawson, the bluest of those chips, in the first half against Louisville. It was one half against a bad offense but the difference he made was visible. Like the aforementioned problems were basically the same in '10 and '13, we just needed one monster DL to mask them. Lawson was supposed to be that guy, and without him we're hopeless. The penalty problem Florida fans were warning us about hasn't manifested (I don't see a off/def breakdown but at a glance we're ~top 10% for fewest penalties per game), but there does seem to be a discipline/effort problem, like guys saying stupid poo poo about Leonard Fournette and then not even trying to tackle him. I'll say this: however bad it gets, I'm all but certain that neither Malzahn or Muschamp are getting canned, and I'm fine with that. The mood is not good, but it's completely different than Chizik's collapse. Malzahn may be burning the whole of his reputation with this flop, but he had one to burn and Chizik didn't. The meme that Auburn ditches its coaches at the first sign of trouble is built on a cursory reading of the Bowden, Tuberville and Chizik terms, but none of those situations are really analogous. Bowden never fit in the culture despite his early success and uberbooster Bobby Lowder supposedly had knives out for him over a personal grievance. Tuberville's relationship with Lowder and the athletic department was never repaired after JetGate, and he was plainly doing the same thing our VT fans say about Frank Beamer -- lackadaisical recruiting and misplaced loyalty to an incompetent offensive staff -- coupled with habitual flirtation with lateral moves; pulling the plug on him the precise moment it got terminal was the kind of thing I think fans would actually appreciate their teams doing. You know the Chizik story -- wildly unpopular hire whose success was easily attributable to others and disappeared when they did. Malzahn will absolutely be done if he can't win 8 or 9 in 2016, but his pathology isn't the same as any of those guys.

Apparently a few years ago Iowa did some poo poo like audible "ohio" every time they ran outside zone and "indiana" every time the ran inside zone and somehow an opposing defense managed to crack that sophisticated code.

They knew Auburn had someone who'd coached for them the year before, and they were still using their old signals. One of the wideouts had to point it out to Jimbo, and then all of a sudden their offense gets going and they stage a huge comeback.
