He hasn't made any major mistakes yet. He's being cautious with injuries. He's not giving away team secrets to the media. He's putting in the work, out in that 104 degree heat. I feel like he's showing pretty good leadership, so far. Maybe he made great progress in the off-season and will surprise everyone!!! talking about @passthebiscuits? lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aubiefifty 16,822 Posted August 14, 2019 Share Posted August 14, 2019 i was gonna tell everyone what the favorite flavor snow cone was with the players but in this day and time it might be premium content. i hate sports reporting the way it is right now. i just think it is wrong. we pay so much for everything auburn it just seems wrong to get basic tidbits about a scrimmage. maybe i am missing something?

passthebiscuits 6,859 Posted August 14, 2019 Share Posted August 14, 2019 Defense still very good. Smoke was all over the field. LBs played very well. OLine looked a little better, held blocks especially in passing. Going to be key to get rid of the ball early. Still underwhelming. WRs looked rough today. Not crisp routes. Dropped passes. RBs are tough and fight for everything. Cadillac has them tough and hitting holes in the interior hard, even if there’s not a lot of room. Several backups played well...always tough to gauge. Qbs...all I keep hearing is how Nix is going to start, but still looks like JG is the leader to most I talk to...so who knows!?! No INTs today. What does the QB do when the play breaks down? The QB that handles that better will be the starter IMO. No major injury updates. Lots of sore dudes but came out OK. It was blazing hot! Certainly not Nip-worthy...yet.

I know I keep talking about him but he keeps making plays. Defense : dominating me: 😀 I believe between Smoke, KJ and Chandler there is going to be some serious hurt leveled on some opposing offenses. These guys know how to bring the hammer down. 👍 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My guess is he'll be the #3 CB, first to play slot WRs, along with being 2nd team safety. Boom! Stoked to hear this! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They played decent at the end of the year last year. Remember there wasn’t much experience going into last year. The guys we were planning on didn’t show up. These guys worked trough it. I know Purdue wasn’t A great team but they were decent. I thought these guys did well against them. Now they are a year older and more experienced. Tega graded out well by the experts. I don’t think the play calling or the QB wanting to stay health for his pro draft ( not blaming him) didn’t help the OL success. Kim seems to be doing much better. Honestly I’m not to worried about our OL except maybe by the depth situation. I really expect good things out of them. My guess is we will be high in the list of the rushing offense teams this year.

Dual-Threat Rigby 8,679 Posted August 14, 2019 Share Posted August 14, 2019 It sounds like this team would be better served playing 3 yards and a cloud of dust but the offensive line unfortunately can’t impose their will going to be to be a game in a game seeing them try to develop an identity Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for the info but I am confused. You are hearing that Nix is going to start but those who you talk to feel differently. Let me ask this, which side has more weight to their title? Lol.

AlaskanFAN 1,666 Posted August 14, 2019 Share Posted August 14, 2019 We can have the most elite defense in the history of college football, but if our offense can move the ball that elite defense will tire and wear down and eventually give up enough points that our offense can’t cover. Gotta have that O start pulling it together with 1st game 17 days away. I watched the Ducks vs Stanford from 2018 last night and yeah the lost in the last seconds but almost that whole team comes back and they are going to be tough. And ole Mario is gonna have them ready for us for sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
