Ok stupid question. If you only have two linebackers in elko's scheme, how can one of two be a middle?

    I'm not convinced Hookfin is going to pan out.  The reason I feel this way is because I've spent most of my life in the weight room and I can tell when someone is going to be a hard gainer, and he fit

    He seems to be appropriately paid. aggy D is currently top 20 in only his first year and they’ve got some good players coming in. He’s solely responsible for stealing Brian Williams from us.

There are only two LBs in Orlando's 3-2-6 scheme, and one of them is the "Mac" (middle) backer.

MLB has become a descriptor of traits and responsibilities on the field.  It's not intended to describe a precise physical location on the football field.

LSU mods have flip picks in for the JUCO CB commit they have to aggy.

LOL sam would have all day to just float balls to LJ and CJ and aggy couldn't do shit to stop it. Also if feels good to have them more worried about our bowl loss then their bowl win.

That's because they aren't winning their bowl game, and they know it.

I would love to see aggy get matched up with Tech or Ok State. Kliff would run those gomers out of the building.

It's nice to see that most of them seem to understand that. The connection between "we would get thrown into a dumpster by Texas Tech" and "wait, maybe spread offenses are a good idea" doesn't seem to have been made, though.

I am surprised that they are not flipping out about the chiefs vs Rams last night considering the spread is starting to grow in the NFL.

You should have seen the posters on sec rant talking about what a bad football game that was.  Those clowns have no idea that teams are going to pour all their money, efforts, recruiting into offensive skill players and QBs to take advantage of the rules being put in place.  The game of football is shifting.  The big 12 started it and the NFL is now going to adopt it.  These owners are seeing the success the Rams, KC, Saints are having and will try to replicate it.  Hell fucking Nick Saban who refused to pass just 5 years ago has completely changed Bama’s offense with their spread attack.  Fucking aggy and half the SEC will be resistant to change and they will see their conference struggle.  Hell right now, with the exception of bama, uga and LSU... the rest of the conference is pure dog shit.  And LSU is dog shit too if they get behind and have to play catch up.  Their offense is not built to go toe to toe with teams that can score.

The Chicago Bears have been an offensive wasteland for the last 75 years - and even they saw the writing on the wall and brought in a HC (Matt Nagy) who was an Andy Reid disciple and hired an OC from the college ranks (Mark Helfrich).   Rule changes have made it easier for offenses - and college (and conferences like the PAC and Big12) have served as excellent incubators for some wild offensive schemes.   Makes it much easier to bring in college QB's and skill players and have them start in the NFL from Day 1.

Guys like BJ and Caden will be super valuable soon and KC has shown that fast and elusive RBs can excel so soon I expect to see guys like Gary Johnson become very valuable LBs as well.  How sweet is it that aggy spent years longing for the pro style run first play style only to have the tides of football change just as they begin to switch over..

Sounds like 2010 Fucktard Mack Brown.

jesus christ reading those screen shots, has me feeling terrible for making fun of aggy all my life.  I was raised to not poke fun at the retarded kids, because it is not their fault, and ive lived by that.  I wouldnt say they are genetically fucked, most are a product of their mother smoking meth and drinking during the first trimester that has them all fucking retarded, but then I read the shit that was just posted and think, no way can meth for breakfast in the firs trimester make someone so fucking stupid,  this is in fact genetic in their DNA.  

I'll say it again, if you were born with all your chromosomes, or not addicted to drugs out of the womb, how do you conciously attend, or cheer for aggy?  Can someone explain it?

Kentucky was ahead of the curve here with Hal mumme. He got a good qb there and won more than Kentucky had in a while, while getting couch to #1 overall. But when he lost his job, they didn’t follow up with a similar styled coach. 

But that was proof that an air raid worked in the sec, and no spread team should be scared of an sec team not named Alabama.

Are Carter and Harris visiting Bama'?  Perroni has something about visit plans for them.

Carter will no longer be at Alabama twice in three weeks. He changed his official visit to Tuscaloosa from this coming weekend to the December 7 weekend.

I’m not sure which would be better for A&M. It’s probably good to give him some space between the two trips and thank about his trip to College Station this past weekend but the other date is closer to signing day

 

"On another note, Christian Harris is set to officially visit Alabama this weekend. Again, obviously not ideal, but A&M is not too worried at the moment"

When is NSD1? And more importantly, is Carter looking to sign early? Answer me those questions and I'll tell you the significance of him moving his official date.

I love how they always say they aren't worried when aggy commits visit elsewhere but all sip commits can be flipped.

Would be hilarious if those 2 flip to Bama'.  I guess it'll depend if Saban really wants them.

With Bama, they could easily be stringing them along as backup plans, although it's always difficult to tell from the outside who they're prioritizing because they'll kick the cans down the road until the very end

My bet is that Alabama moved the date and it's there to determine if he's a late take for them.  They already have Williams and Turnage and will likely get Pola-Gates as well. I think Carter is simply the backup plan for Pola-Gates.

They're also still recruiting Dent and Battle

What about Harris in regards to LB's for them?

Nakobe Dean and Henry Tototo, amonst others. Harris is a big project at linebacker; he plays corner and wr for his high school team, and Bama appears to have guys ahead of him on their board with similar ceilings who can contribute earlier, but it's Bama and maybe they end up taking him

The hardest part for them is weighing the honor of having Alabama covet and steal one of their recruits vs signing a good player and knowing Alabama didn't push for them. Validation can be found in many ways.

Is LSU not a factor for Harris?

Doesn't appear to be; they're in a numbers crunch.

Is Harris playing LB this year?  Just remember, Hamm said he would take Harris of Floyd lulz.

And I would take Floyd over Dean. It’s easy to say when your second option isn’t a possibility. 

*Very excited to have Floyd coming, demonstrative purposes only.

I am completely baffled that aggy is favored. Doing a bit of research, they said that over 75% of the bets are on LSU. Vegas is about to take another bath on this one.

I’d expect more movement on the line if that was the case. It’s still A&M -3 pretty much everywhere.

 

 

That's gonna make a moral victory that much harder for aggy.

Nah, they still have the rankings. 

But since beating the spread was the cool thing vs Alabama, might get some mileage out of aggy beating LSU but not covering if they beat them by 1. 

No worries about the final score. They will win the half time show and march to victory.

It's a reverse line movement 

Ranking inflated for the $EC. Helps their bowl projections.

Uh did these fuckers watch last bowl season? Total lack of awareness. They're right, though, all will be revealed. The sec will be exposed again.

Edited by Bevo14

Do these mouth breathers not realize that the SEC is the only conference that tries to create advantageous matchups in their bowl games? And they still lose most of their bowl games not involving Bama.

You’ve already forgotten their excuse for last year’s record?  Having 2 teams in the playoffs meant that the other teams had to play a bowl above where they should have.

Or in every other conference's case, where those teams should be playing.
