3rd & long. What can be done?

Overall today yes. But dang our defense against Bama's WRs scares me.

Actually we are not supposed to beat bama or ga. along with all the rest of college football can't beat them. I am happy to see a great improvment, we just blew out a ranked opponent on their home field. This is improvement. We are not likely to beat Ga. or Bama, but at least with our offense now, we do at least have a chance. We do have a good chance of going 10 and 2. And I would not be that suprised to win one of the two of Ga. or Bama.

Almost every time it's 3rd and long it hurts to watch. Why can't they stop anyone on 3rd and long?

I do think we are lacking a little in this area. But if you watch much CFB you will realize how much offensive football continues to change. Kids are just SO FAST and athletic it’s getting more difficult to defend the field.

Martinez and Banks suck. If you pay attention to the game only the DL is actually playing really well. Funny how Garner can get the most out of his players but Martinez cant.

DBs played great today. What are you talking about?

Some of the alignments leave a lot to be desired. Even when we play zone we aren't playing zone well at all. It's like our players don't have awareness of the zones they are guarding so we see players free in space.

Can you draw us some of these less desired
alignments? Teach us something!
