One of my failings is always seeing the glass 3/4 empty!
One of the few things I dislike about CFB is matching up an upper level team with a very overmatched team. I am fearful of the overmatched players getting hurt as tackling dummies while their schools make millions. A couple of observations from the RADIO broadcast of yesterday's game. 1) QB B- grade can be partially attributed to Monken play calling. Twice(?) he had JTD throwing bombs on 3rd down when clearly those are low % pass plays and JTD needs game reps (ie long , many play drives) and 2) AGAIN UGA OL had trouble moving people in short yardage situations. There were probably 4-5 (?) plays where CS DL stuffed the UGA O/OL. Food for thought for those "far and away better" fans. OSU up 28-0 after 1stQ vs #7 MSU. UGA up 28-0 after 1st Q vs Charleston Southern.
DRob, MLanders and BCox were not going to play much for this years team. DRob continues to drop balls, shy from contact and not block. He was surpassed by numerous guys. Landers was below DRob on the depth chart. Nuf said. Been waiting 2 years to see BCox look like a 5*. Still waiting. TStev would've been a nice guy to have this year. He missed out on a title run but got to go home. Tells you about his competitiveness. Same with JJohnson. Looked out for himself. Improved team = improved chemistry = these guys being gone?
I'm not going to complain about the grades or the fact that we somehow only scored 7 points in the second half, but I have a question. How is that every time I watch Alabama or Ohio State their WIDE RECEIVERS -- not their freshman tight end -- are REPEATEDLY running wide open all over the field, yet our wide receivers are catching like 3-4 passes a game and they never seem to be true game-breakers. I get it that we don't have Pickens and (until yesterday) Blaylock, but those other guys are not chopped liver. Just don't understand it. Go Dawgs!
Dallas Dawg, it's because our receivers are used more in blocking schemes before they are released to get wide open like Alabama receivers do. Plus the Dawg receivers don't have the speed of the Tide receivers except for Arian Smith, but he can't play now because of a broken leg he received at a practice session.
