Pruitt liked how the team practiced this week

I think the bamboo needs more watering.

Ok not trying to be an a$$ so please don't take it that way. But I really dont get why people say this. We are so bad on the o-line right now I really believe that is the biggest reason for our struggles. It really does hamstring us.

I agree, Helton can only call plays he's confident the skill set of the line can execute.

If the O-line is so bad why doesn't he roll him out? JG has got the arm.

Hopefully Tyson Helton is awake to start the game.

Hopefully the team is awake. Not sure how they are so out of sync that first 15 mins every game

 

[ManningBerry#1]

I'm glad to know that we actually practice. That's refreshing

 

[illinoisvolfan1]

I agree. It’s hard to follow those comments with a loss. I feel pretty confident we win on Saturday.

This is really probably the most important game of our season. Need to win!

I hope the same team that beat Suburb shows up in Columbia as well. Two rode wins would look good and serve as a confidence builder also.

I thought I had beaten the suburbs, but here I am at 37 right back in them. It’s a vicious cycle

 

[VolForLife83]

Hopefully Tyson Helton is awake to start the game.

Hopefully he passes the ball besides in 3rd down

“There’s really but one place to go for us right now and that’s up", many said the same thing after Dooley was fired.....

Difference is that a comment from the coach this time around and not just the fans.

 

[photovol]

We'll probably get beat by 30 now.

Glass half empty kind of guy ea?

I hate statements like this, because we always find a way to disprove them somehow, someway, some fashion

 

[Volstar65]

Pruitt has said it over and over you play like you practice. I believe that to be a true statement. Him saying we haven't got anywhere to go but up, is that we stink and all we can do is get better? Or is that we are finally getting it and our worst days are behind us? Kind of threw me off there.

Good grief...

Little bit of both. He has said there are quite a few on this team that just fail to execute the right way. Regardless of how many times they practice it seems that some of our players just dont get it. He knows we arent that good. But I believe he sees that we are improving. Its going to take time before our worst days are behind us.

 

[DougVol]

Just glad the energy vampires didn't show up this week. We'd certainly be doomed then.

You just said we lose by 30.

 

[Volfan2012]

Stay away from the turnovers we'll have a chance to win this one in the fourth quarter. I expect a close low scoring game unless one team or another turns the ball over several times.

 

[strkr]

Lets see both safeties for south Carolina are out? Pass the ball, pass the ball, use the pass to get them loosened up to run some. Pass to the rb out of the backfield on flares, pass the te in space and across the middle. Play to win and let it hang out and pass the ball downfield. I hope we don't come out and bomb aka Florida game.

It's time to sic 'em on a chicken!

 

[Sudden Impact]

Sounds like calling them out as a group might have worked....Key is to never be satisfied as a coach, but when you are pleased a little bit of praise never hurts.

IOW, CJP may have gotten their attention....

 

[savannahfan]

Maybe, but I am getting a sense that our big uglies are gonna come out as physical as they can be, this game. We'll see what happens.

Big maybe. Ugly hardly (in a playing sort of way). As physical as they can,,,, well lets hope it's enough. Yes, we'll see what happens.

 

[savannahfan]

If the O-line is so bad why doesn't he roll him out? JG has got the arm.

Roll them out??? The problem with this is, JG and the defense will have the play over before they get there!

 

[HuntlandVolinColo]

I just hope the OL gets nasty and balls out for Trey!

 

[HuntlandVolinColo]

I’d say the fact that Pruitt didn’t find them in their dorm rooms, curled up in the fetal position, sucking their thumbs, after that ass whoppin, is a good sign.

None of them showed up to a rape counselor after that game either.

 

[HuntlandVolinColo]

It's time to sic 'em on a chicken!

Good song, I wonder if they ever play that at Williams-Brice Stadium?
