I'm starting to get a little concerned about Tray. I know he's a big hitter but it seems like he has issues with positioning. I know injuries have been a factor for him but I'm wondering if he's as good as was advertised??...just wondering. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I assumed that to mean TDs, but I guess they could be including FGs??? JF3 & SW had TD passes. Sean's was to the end zone to Marcus Davis. JF3's was a short pass to Jason Smith who then broke it for a big play. JJ's TD was a short run after what was apparently a long pretty pass to Ryan Davis to set it up.

AU64 10,122 Posted August 9, 2016 Share Posted August 9, 2016 Not sure what the rush is unless the coaches are feeling some pressure to do this. Otherwise, let Clemson guess. Maybe there is need for a little more secrecy about what goes on in practice....people drawing conclusions about plays they did not actually see....the pick 6 mentioned above for example. Could have been the WR or maybe just a bad pass or ???? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I understand but certainly that seems to stamp a definition on what the offense will be doesn't it which is useful for an opponent ? But it also seems sometimes it's too early...maybe like last season for AU or even Bama last year. For them, they were good enough to win with Bateman for a couple games but not when crunch time comes...sorta like us except our #2 was dinged pretty early and did not seem to matter much who was at QB as far as the style of play or W-L record. If there is not going to be serious scrimmage before the season starts I guess it will not matter when Gus picks his QB .....appears that QBs playing in game-like situations...playing live...will tell us more about each of them.....otherwise, history is not necessarily on the side of getting the right guy the first time.

Auburn confirms that White and the other two QB's all had a TD via Charles Goldberg and The AU Gold Mine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AUBwins 10,001 Posted August 9, 2016 Share Posted August 9, 2016 I wonder if Carlson had to nail the field goal to end practice with the group crowded around. In high school, we used to have to hit a free throw in basketball after running sprints to either end practice or run more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

austudnt23 1,432 Posted August 10, 2016 Share Posted August 10, 2016 9 hours ago, WarDamnEagleWDE said: The passing TD's came from a blown assignment and a missed tackle. Also there were no long runs, nothing over 20 yards, during a run oriented scrim. You decide. The offense was very vanilla and the defense can zone in on the rb getting the ball almost every time with the qbs in the orange jersey. Even if the qbs run the only gotta be touched. I was told from someone who watched the scrimmage SW looks like the starter atm, but JF3 shows that he could make this offense explosive again if he continues to progress at the qb position. Also Eli Stove gonna be a stud along with Derrick Brown which was expected. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
