    I think the strategy is sound. At least, the principle behind it is.​


    Let me clarify.​


    I think Les's purpose is to see which RB is hot, and roll with that. ​

    The problem, he doesn't give them enough time to figure it out.


    Different backs read things differently and that is why I like using all of them in the game, however, in games like yesterday, I think you just have to pick your bruiser and roll with him until he MAKES a play. Once that happens, you can roll in another back to switch things up.​



    I also see why Blue was the starter. He was the mix between SW & KH...​



    I think now Les just needs to pick 2 backs and roll with them... This experiment has turn on its self. ​

    They each have their strengths. When the line actually blocks you can sub em at will. When your line isn't blocking you put hillard behind 44 and beat them into submission when you run. But you need to pass to open it up. Muschamp knew passing is never a real threat if he's ever watched a les miles football game which I think he has when we throttled them last year. Lee was coming into his own as a passer but we nipped that in the bud.

    The key is keeping a defense offbalance which we rarely do. We just line up like its 1940 and push guys around. When it fails we do nothing except fail with it. We often win in spite of it yet do nothing proactive to correct it. Because we won all is well This is miles Achilles heel and forever will be. See ya.

    Right now if Les manages to come up with a game plan that keeps us from going 0-for-October, it'll be a minor miracle.

    My position was wait and see. I've seen enough. With this schedule we'll be lucky to get 8 wins.

    I can't believe those knee pads finally wore out.

    It should be noted:

    We are down to:

    2 True freshman on O'line and a Soph.

    Turner
    Vadal
    Collins


    Devastating to say the least.
