.........annnnnd Barker played at alabummer while Sanders played at Auburn........Not sure if Saunders was working for Abc back then😁

Saunders indeed was the host for ABC during the 94 FL game. 

Sanders had an AA game that day.

That's why I followed up that post with this one.

I had typed Baker instead.

You included Bailey, but did not exclude Baker.

Man, that group of Saunders, Baker, Goodson, Fuller was pretty darn good. I had forgotten. 

Sanders and Baker never played together.

Looks faster than Tre.

Which Tre? 2011 Tre or 2013 Tre? Two very different top gears due to different masses.

Pat Nix totally changed the momentum of the Updyke game in 93 , I like Stan White but if he finishes that game we lose.

Yep completely agreed.

Marshall (2013): 28.3% for 505.5 yards per completion

Now, let's say the line of scrimmage was the offensive teams 2 yard line, ball is snapped and QB is in endzone under pressure.  He dives forward to prevent getting tackled in the endzone and the ball comes to rest as we see in the same picture above.      Did the QB successfully get the ball out of the endzone and avoid the safety?   Answer:  NO.   This is a safety.  Why?   Because when coming from the endzone to the field of play, the ENTIRE BALL has to get out of the endzone.  If a portion of the ball remains on or touching the goal line, it would be a safety.    It does not matter where the player is. The only thing that matters is where the ball is.  If the ball is entirely out of the endzone, then its not a safety.  If even a portion of the ball is on the goal line, it is a safety.

The perfect example of this is Mike Blanc tackling LaMichael James for a Safety in the BCSCG.

I say burn the redshirt and get him as much experience as we possibly can. Cord is already several years past legal drinking age. No reason to save him,plus it will help him in 2019 to have some experience.

If Stidham stays healthy, I don’t see much PT for Sandberg beyond 4-5 games.

If the O comes around we should blow out most teams like we did last season. There should be 3 at minimum.

Arkansas, Tennessee and Ole Miss are the only ones I see at this point, but Ole Miss is on the road and they have the offense to keep it respectable enough to have to leave Stidham in. 

So if ARK and UT are the only blowouts, is one extra game (beyond the 4-game max) worth burning Sandberg’s redshirt? 

I realize the guy’s age, but he’s stated he wants his college degree.

That's true, but after thinking about his age, there is zero reason to redshirt him.  Play him early and often if he proves to be the 2nd best QB this coming year.

If more than one of our SEC opponents turn into blowouts, agreed. But I’m not sure we can blow out anyone other than the 3 cupcakes.

Wuerffel played against a different SEC back then.  The DBs were horrible.  Although he did have great timing and touch for his time.  

The 94 AU secondary was the best ever to play at AU. Wuerffel torched them mostly, but threw a costly pick to All American Brian Robinson late to set up our game-winning drive. 

The 96 Alabama secondary had Deshea Townsend (played 13 years in the league) and Fernando Bryant, two of the better CBs in the SEC. Wuerffel torched them the entire 96 SECCG.

Don’t recall the names of the 96 FSU secondary, but they were really good. Wuerffel had to play them twice. Got stomped in Tallahassee because of FSU’s ferocious D-Line, but redeemed himself in full for the national title.

JMO, I don't think Cord is an SEC starting caliber QB. He doesn't seem to have a big enough arm. Lots of his throws seem to float.

Textbook Wuerffel and Tebow arms. Their College careers turned out decent.

but how rusty is he? i wonder ow long it takes for him to get back into football shape?

How long should it take a professional player to get back in shape for a sport he played just 6 years ago? If Stidham stays healthy throughout the 2018 season, that’s a full year of workouts, practices and up to 4 games of action in 2018 to get ready for 2019. He will have a huge advantage on Nix by the time he arrives.

Weinke played minor league baseball in the Toronto Blue Jays farm system from 1990 to 1996, advancing to class Triple-A, before deciding to attend Florida State University. Head coach Bobby Bowden had initially recruited Weinke when he was a prep quarterback in 1989 at Cretin-Derham Hall High School. After quitting baseball, Weinke called Bowden, and Bowden offered him a scholarship with 1997 recruiting class. After arriving he quickly distinguished himself as a starting quarterback, leading the team to victory in the 1999 National Championship. In 2000, at 28, he became the oldest person to receive the Heisman Trophy.

He’ll be number 2 midways through fall camp.

Not too sure we need another q.b.

If Stidham goes down, he’ll be a god-send.

I do think it is telling that the coaching staff would go after a guy who hasn’t taken a snap in several years.

Have we ever had a 5* DB sign with Auburn?

JUCO CB Demond Washington was a 5-star by at least one recruiting service and a 4-star by all others. He worked out very well.

Willis and Gatewood will be battling out to replace him with Nix getting a red shirt while getting physically ready to compete in 2020/21

Nix will compete for the starting job in 2019.
