Something I Learned from the Memphis Game

But ya GOTTA love Crompton calling for a spike and running the sneak. That is one of my all time favorite VOL plays... Wow....

I learned that no matter how big we win some people can't help but complain- See Poole threads, 2nd team defense threads, crowd and crying baby threads, etc..

Heh.

I'm a Seahawks fan. Yesterday they ran an end around with Hasselbeck handing off to Seneca Wallace, who threw it for a 15 yard completion. It was drawn up perfectly.
It would be fun to see something like that, but it's tough when it's being thrown by someone who's not used to throwing. I'd really like to see them try it with Eric Berry, wasn't he a QB in high school?

So was Gerald Jones.

I think it had more to do with the defense reading pass from the start so them not having time because they did an awful job of making it look like a run. As soon as it was snapped it looked awkward.

What was being said about the crowd? I must have missed that link. I was at the game sec d row 3. Awesome for seeing the players, but not so must for observing the crowd. Whats up?

The crowd was pretty quiet. The players did a much better job of keeping the energy up than we did. We (the fans at the games) have done a pretty good job up to this point being loud. But I think everybody is just emotionally exhausted. In a good way, lol.

All it would've taken was for a couple guys on the field to throw their arms up. But they didn't really need us. Well, maybe 2nd string did. We let 'em down I guess.

That is true. Hard to really bring the noise during a homecoming game. I will say we did pump it up on most third downs and whenever the players raised their arms. I was shocked to see only 94,XXX people attended. That got me thinking, if 94,000 is a small crowd, than life is good. Our smaller crowds are still larger then any NFL stadium's full house (well except the new Cowboys cathedral-I hate Dallas, for multiple reasons). Anyway, you get my point.

Well, I learned that CLK is willing to let a few points be scored in order to plan for the future!!!

I learned that taking a shot every time we score a touchdown against an opponent like memphis is not the best decision i've ever made....or was it?
