For Simms?
I say he's got the same luck as DD (and our team) has had so far by drawing LSU as his return to the spotlight.

Can you imagine if UT beats LSU and then LSU beats BAMA ???? Unbeaten Stanford, Boise St., Oklahoma, and Wisconsin would mean no NC for SEC !

Stuff like that is said every year and it never happens. Most of those teams will lose at least 1 game. No more than 2 undefeated teams by year end, IMO.

Boise will not lose but won't make the nat champ game. Wisconsin will lose to someone not expected and stanford will lose to oregon. It'll be a either undefeated lsu or bama against undefeated oklahoma

that is a total cop out... if you can hurry someone effectively it can effect someone the whole game... and if its done correctly it changes the other teams scheme... more importantly it forces a difficult decision on a QB... we MUST blitz... and we must do it often... teams with VERY questionable secondary players do it all day long in the NFL.... and ya thats an NFL comparison.... and no our DB's arent NFL guys.... we play in college.... but it has to be done at LEAST some of the time.... NOT NEVER!!!!

I am not the only one holding a candle to this bro.... I am a season ticket holder.... and lets just say nobody with in a long earshot has anything positive to say about Wilcox.... nor do the 100's in my alumni chapter I serve in locally.... his favor is losing ground in a huge hurry! honestly.... give me more than one good example on times he impressed you other than being overly conservative on his schemes?

Total points allowed. Aren't we in the high 20's ranking wise?

Held UGA to 20. Gave up just a few big plays not because he didn't scheme it right, but because the (young) players got out of position. He isn't all that bad. Remember we recruited mostly DB's and a couple of LB's. Still has to get his DT's, and I assure you it wasn't his decision to not get more of them.

Advantage Simms. LSU will be too distracted by their new training staff...

I remember a few years back, Florida State was preseason #1. They lost their first two games. They were starting two freshman corners. Bowden said, "The losses were my fault. I thought we had to lay back a little to protect our young corners. I was wrong. We needed to attack. If the corners can't play their positions, we're not going to win anyway." They won the rest of their games.

The only way our secondary can POSSIBLY cover anybody is if the QB is being chased and knocked down. Nobody, but nobody, can cover a good wide out indefinitely. You have to pressure the QB to have a good secondary.

Sorry. I posted mine before I read yours. You're right on the money here.

I will say, however, that he does blitz occasionally, it's just that the blitzes are so poorly designed that it doesn't really look like it; also, he almost always hedges his bet and pulls a lineman back into coverage (or I guess I should say "token coverage"). I did see him send 3 extra guys one play and they all kind of crept around the outside of the pocket instead of making something happen.

I hear ya old man and agree. We know that LSU is going to come screaming after Simms, a little turnabout would be fair play. I say unleash the Maggit and pull a Brewer up the middle a few times per quarter. The entire football nation expects us to get curb stomped and the best way for us to shut the naysayers up is to unleash our defense. At this point we have nothing to lose and everything to gain.
