Texan4Auburn 1,626 Posted March 21, 2006 Share Posted March 21, 2006 I know some skimishes among players individually occur, but that is kind of odd to see that many involved I would think. Especially the couple that come in late and take some shots. Sure it will be addressed and handled quickly and a few buckets for some players will be needed.

Nay4AU 2 Posted March 21, 2006 Share Posted March 21, 2006 It’s not an uncommon occurrence for teammates to get caught up in emotion and resort to fighting. However I thought it was odd that the player (#92) was not even involved in the action and came in with a cheap shot. Fighting with teammates is one thing. Hitting one of your own teammates with a cheap shot is another. I wonder if #92 is Wallace Gilberry. He’s #92 but with it being spring practice it could be someone with a duplicate number.

AUloggerhead 2,241 Posted March 21, 2006 Share Posted March 21, 2006 You call that a brawl? Two words: Mee Yow. All that hand slapping/shoving looked more like a cat fight between a bunch of cheerleaders. Even the cheap shot looked kinda weak. Usually with a big hit, you're supposed to hear something. Did anybody hear any pads come together in that "lick"? These guys must have been tired from practicing indoors or something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DKW 86 7,431 Posted March 21, 2006 Share Posted March 21, 2006 Anyone else think it looked a little staged? I mean they are at least ten yards from the line of scrimmage. Why would you be that far from the LOS and still fighting? either the O-lineman got whupped very badly or he drug the d-lineman ten yards past the LOS, not legal btw. Just a little ODD, nothing more, being on the back line of the endzone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GoAU 1,600 Posted March 21, 2006 Author Share Posted March 21, 2006 I can't imagine why it would be staged, why would you want it to look like you had team issues? I know that it's not unusual to see individual skirmishes - heck it's even a good thing sometimes to see that much emotion and passion, but when the whole team gets involved like they were all just waiting for a reason is what would worry me.

Guest Tigrinum Major Posted March 21, 2006 Share Posted March 21, 2006 It started out as no big deal. Then the guy (Gilberry?) that came up and pushed the other lineman set off the brawl. Everyone else looked like they were going for him. Then the two over to the side decided they needed a little action. Weird. I will commend the Bama players on one thing. I didn't see anyone stupid enough to take his helmet off. Maybe they are recruiting smarter players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The other is still on the team when any other kid would have been expelled from school in the same circumstances. Sorry, but you STILL don't win a prize, not even one from the lowest shelf. Try again tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abrnfanatc 6 Posted March 21, 2006 Share Posted March 21, 2006 Looked like #71 was probably tired of getting manhandled by #99 and took out a little frustration after the play was over. Nothing new, should have stopped there. Then #92 (Gilberry?) really started the scrum. I would hate to be in his running shoes after the coaches saw that tape.

sogaaufan 27 Posted March 21, 2006 Share Posted March 21, 2006 What a bunch of candy a**es. Wait for a fight to break out, then jump on the pile and throw a bunch of cheap ones. These guys can't even get a practice scrap right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just a little ODD, nothing more, being on the back line of the endzone. 226223[/snapback] It looked to me like they were participating in a pass rush drill where 1 OL and 1 DL go against eachother at a time. That would explain why there were only to players participating in the drill. I thought it was funny that all the coaches and-or staff run over to the pile and nobody paid attention to the 2 players off to the side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WAR EAGLE!!! 0 Posted March 21, 2006 Share Posted March 21, 2006 You guys are reading WAY too much into this!!! I have played at the collegiate level and have seen this happen quite a bit; especially in the spring. It looks like the starting d-line and scout o-line were going up against each other. The d-line was probably getting man handled and out hustled by the scout team and didn't like being shown up. There were probably a few choice words before and had been going at it all day. This is not necessarily a bad thing guys. A lot of the times coaches will provoke this type of thing with the scout team...especially during spring. I know we are supposed to hate Alabama and everything that they do....but too many of you guys are reading too much into this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jumbo 0 Posted March 23, 2006 Share Posted March 23, 2006 I played football in college also and I was involved in a fight in the spring during a scrimage and I thought I was kicking the guys @#$ but on film it looked like I was trying to shake his hand ! During the spring offense and defence get in a lot of fights because the coaches build the others up as the enemy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
