For the 8000th time, it's Akron, but we just seem like a completely different football team

[j0hnnyRingo 1,445]

Finley out with the offense. 

[tgrogan21 6,198]

Now lets see if Harsin allows Finley to run the full offense. And holy crap! 3rd string RB with a gain of 37 on his first run!

[j0hnnyRingo 1,445]

Not a bad first run for Hunter!

[AuCivilEng1 11,026]

This is exactly what I wanted to see. Every single person on this team knows their job and isn’t f’ing around when they are on the field. Man I can’t stand Gus Malzahn What a douche!

Look, Akron is not on our level at all.  We're bigger, stronger, faster, or more skilled (or all four) at every position.  So we should be pounding them.  But what I like is that we look dialed in.  Not lazy or lackadaisical.  The offense looks more well-thought out and purposeful.  We're actually using the tight ends.  Bo isn't getting a lot of pressure but when they have, he's keeping his eyes downfield and moving up in the pocket.

Like I say, doing against Akron is one thing.  Doing it vs Penn State in a couple of weeks, or against UGA is another.  But a nice start to things.

Oooooooo nice run by hunter. 

[tgrogan21 6,198]

Okay, I see you Hunter!

[Maverick.AU 13,281]

Hunter! 37 on his first run! Let's go

[Randman5000 4,234]

Dang. This is a different football team. I love it

[j0hnnyRingo 1,445]

There ya go TJ!

[bootskii 264]

First TD by Finley as a real Tiger. Congrats!

[tgrogan21 6,198]

TOUCHDOWN FINLEY! Still perfect 8-8 in scoring drives.

[AUBwins 10,088]

Jackson wearing that 44. Great number for us in past. 

[W.E.D 11,070]

TJ really is massive 

[kennypowers 1,431]

Bet all the transfers and early draftees are watching...a bit unnerved about their decision.  

[EastAl_Tiger 228]

I must be seeing things

[j0hnnyRingo 1,445]

No wonder MAR bailed with Gus. RB room ain’t empty. 

[AUBwins 10,088]

Finley finally scores in JH .... hehe, just messing with him.

Feel like a few like MAR could have stayed and benefited. But a lot needed to go

True, it's Akron. But the head coach we had for 8 years would still be trying to figure out who plays where

Great that there was no drop off.

Pretty sure he didn't get a carry in their opener

Yep. But they're now converting feelings to wisdom because of it.
