Week 5: Alabama @ Mississippi State

[GrayTide]

We have a lot to work on and Mittittippi Tate is just what the doctor ordered. I kind of like where we are right now flying under the radar but we need steady improvement to get where we want to be.

Agreed as long as we don't just roll our helmets out there and expect MSU to waive a white flag.

Night game in Starkville....cowbells....only thing to make that be over the top is if we get Beth Mowens.

It could be worse, RGIII

 

[Bamabuzzard]

If the Oline can continue and improve on what they did in the second half of the Ole Mist game, the running game should open up A LOT of opportunities for Milroe to pass.

Yes, best thing that an happen to him. And since we seem to be struggling more with pressure up the A gap, RPO's don't work as well (and don't seem JM's strength) so just some straight play action type stuff will really pop if that run game gets stronger!

 

[GrayTide]

What I would like to see when we need short yardage, is the QB under center and get a huge OL push. No more short yardage from the shot gun.

What language are you speaking? It seems our fellas are lost in translation.

 

[BamaMoon]

Let's just call it the "Jalen Package" in deference to the "Jumbo Package." Line up and do what the Eagles do!

*Jalen = Hurts and/or Milroe

 

[BamaMoon]

BTW, when the eagles run the QB sneak they almost always run it right behind center Kelcey and our own Landon Dickerson, their left guard.

It's crazy because everybody including Dickerson's grandmother knows what coming but nobody can stop it!

I only saw brief moments of MSU getting flattened by LSU. I know they are struggling after the passing of Coach Leach. But I expect them to start out tough. The Alabama game is important to that University; I've attended several games over there. Outside of Ole Miss, obviously, this is their game of the year.

We will need to play with the same intensity and focus we showed in the 2nd half last week. Much better teams under Coach Saban have gone over there and got into 4 quarter battles.

They looked horrible against LSU. The last two games I think the two qbs playing against them have like 6 incompletions or something crazy. Hopefully with that Milroe can have an efficient day and we can put up more points than we have so far this year.

 

[Bazza]

Ugh. That's rough on us in EST zone!

I think this is perfect game for Milroe to get his confidence going and work on his progressions.

I enjoy listening to Jordan Rodgers fairly well. Very knowledgeable.

And that is without even asking him😃 Did you see him gushing about the idea that Ole Missy was going to kick Bama out of our own stadium and giving Tebow a hard time for picking Bama? Ha! He does have football savy I agree.

Good looking Blue Heeler. Looks a lot like my 'Blue Belle' RIP Belle.

 

[TriCountyTider]

Just win! Let the rest of this "rankings" hoopla sort itself. JUST KEEP WINNING!

At least RGIII did play the game. I wish Mowins no ill, but I don't wish it for others either.
