Brad_ATX 13,654 Posted November 19, 2017 Share Posted November 19, 2017 Defense - Gap control and keep Hurts in the pocket. Force him to beat us with his arm. Offense - O line needs to be able to get Kerryon to the second level. Him vs a reshuffled Bama linebacker rotation is a huge advantage for us, but their D-Line is still very, very good. Special teams - Kick the ball out of the end zone at every opportunity. Force Bama to go downt he field as much as humanly possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

auburn4ever 1,266 Posted November 19, 2017 Share Posted November 19, 2017 IMO, Gus should NOT take his foot off the gas even if we're up something like 28-14 or 31-14. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ToraGirl 5,498 Posted November 19, 2017 Share Posted November 19, 2017 1. Play four quarters, hard. 2. Make BETTER, laser-focused changes at halftime if needed. 3. Take the gutsy risk where possible; 4. Come slept well, eaten well, prayed up, pumped up, yet loose and God-confident. That's for the players, the coaches, AND the crowd. 5. Rock JH making UGA's experience look like a dress rehearsal. Bring it heavier, hotter, happier, and higher. Tall order, because, wow. Enough can't be said about what all who went left on the field that day in the stands, which most definitely contributed to what was left on the field itself. 6. Bring your umbrellas, and prepare for rain...in the form of buying out Charmin. 7. Disrupt WHATEVER they have come to rely upon...legally, consistently...securely. All else of what you said. I am so excited! Couldn't even wait until this week to start the Lookalikes thread. It is time and the time is NOW. P.S. The Auburn Arena will be mimicking JH. That's where I plan to be.

'76 Tiger 108 Posted November 20, 2017 Share Posted November 20, 2017 As Phillip Marshall wrote today, most games are won on the line. If our O-Line and D-Line are dominant, we will win. If Bama's lines rule, we lose. I like our chances. WDE! Beat Bama! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GoAU 1,599 Posted November 20, 2017 Share Posted November 20, 2017 Agree wholeheartedly with the LOS battle. The O line has to keep the pressure off of JS. To do this, the screens and some quick slants would really help. With the pummeling the bama LBs have taken, I would try to exploit that. We don't want JS running for his life the whole game. Also, win the turnover batle and score TDs and not FGs in the red zone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

roe4christ 940 Posted November 20, 2017 Share Posted November 20, 2017 We must create a pocket for JS to pass. When he gets happy feet, nothing good happens. WR have to get open. Play calling like Georgia game. Defense, we have to own the line of scrimmage and stuff the run. Keep Hurts contained so that he can not scramble for 10+ yards. Secondary can not get burned over the middle. Turn your head and look for the ball instead of getting pass interference calls. Carlson has to kick ball out of bounds on kick offs. No turnovers on offense. Crowd has to be crazy!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope our secondary has a better game than even the Georgia game because there were a few passes that could have gone for TDs. Usually the reason Ridley gets so open is the time JH can buy with his feet. I just don’t believe Holland , Coe, Davidson and company will give JH that time. Usually I would say it is as easy as 1 2 3 but in this case it will be as easy as 3,4,5 if you know what I mean. WDE Dont mistake JH for a quick release passer. That is the type that have given us fits. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

doc4aday 1,887 Posted November 20, 2017 Share Posted November 20, 2017 I think the key to this game lies with our DBs not making mistakes and keeping good tight coverage. We must clean up mistakes made in the UGA game like Davis falling down and their receiver being wide open and dropping the ball. We had some sloppy coverage yesterday against ULM that we gave up some plays on. We cannot do this against bammer. Coach Brown needs to burn the midnight oil to find every weakness he can dissect on bammer all season. We need his best coaching for this game. He is an excellent coach who I know will do whatever he can to have our DBs playing stellar ball a 4 quarters. If we take their passing game as much out of the equation as possible, we can make them as close to 1 dimensional as possible. I think we can stop their run game and beat them. Carlson needs to put the ball out of the end zone all game. Our defense will put us in the best position to win this game. Our defense playing their best will put our offense in excellent position to put up a lot of points and reach close to or over 500 yards when the gun sounds. We need to keep them under 400 yards of offense. This will be the key. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CountStandya 81 Posted November 20, 2017 Share Posted November 20, 2017 Passing the ball..aka Oklahoma and Ohio state...also remember Utah state and Lousiville back in the day....that's how you beat bama. That's been their weakness for years...that's why ole miss beat them twice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

corchjay 5,311 Posted November 20, 2017 Share Posted November 20, 2017 If I read this thread and just wrote down the things it lists as keys AU would have to play and Coach a perfect game to win. I don’t think that is the case at all. I think both teams will make plenty of mistakes. What will determine the winner and loser will be what always does. Blocking, tackling, turnovers, and penalties. That’s pretty much it. I’m ready to enjoy the ride. WDE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Example, if you have a potential interception hit your hands you need to catch it. Almost will not get it done Saturday. I love our chances. so basically what you are saying is our DB's do not need to have blake countess hands?! lol I swear he had a SURE pick 6 in the 2015 iron bowl that he dropped.......
