Re: 2007 SEC Football Thread
 

Auburn did not look very good tonight... very ABC, very predictable football.

2 things helped them win.

1. Other team penalties.
2. Other team QB doesn't know how to slide, didn't come out of the game and gimped his way to losing the game.

I'm an Auburn graduate and Auburn fan... I was very disappointed with the first 55 minutes of the game.

Saw Tebow make some decent throws on highlights. Not bad -- though they were highlights.

He played awesome. Did a lot beyond the highlights, very efficient. Some nice runs as well. Surprise was RB Keshtahn Moore, he looks much improved. Offense looks dangerous but it's going to have to carry us.

Defense looked fairly porous in some areas but that's to be expected.

Other things:
Auburn looks really bad offensively(we knew this)
UGA's Jones or whatever is a huge thug, what a stupid ass move punching the guy.
UT is really poorly coached(we knew this)

Sat., Sept. 8
*Alabama at Vanderbilt (11:30 a.m. CT / LFS)
Mississippi State at Tulane (6 p.m. CT / CSS)
South Florida at Auburn (8 p.m. CT / ESPN2)
Troy at Florida (6 p.m. CT)
*South Carolina at Georgia (5:45 p.m. ET / ESPN)
Kent State at Kentucky (6 p.m. ET)
Virginia Tech at LSU (8:15 p.m. CT / ESPN)
Missouri at Ole Miss (5 p.m. CT)
Southern Miss at Tennessee (7 p.m. ET)
OPEN: Arkansas

Certainly some awesome games next week.
USF & Southern Miss can play so it will be interesting to
see how Auburn and UT play.

Good chance for Ole Miss to get a huge win vs Mizzou

2 awesome SEC games with Bama @ Vandy, USC @ UGA

And of course VT/LSU. VT may not score in this game offensively.

Re: 2007 SEC Football Thread
 

I will say I'm was much impressed by Tim Tebow tonight. Usually I think U of F is VASTLY overrated, but today they looked great. It honestly pains me to say that.

I agree with you on Auburn's offense, but I wonder how much of it was play-calling. It was fricking HORRIBLE. Reminiscent of the up-the-middle, up-the-middle, up-the-middle punt days of the mid 90's. WHY do the coaches insist on running it up the middle when we have no offensive line?

I'm hoping this was a huge level, but I doubt it. There were no end-arounds, nothing to take advantage of speed, no misdirection. Even late in the 4th it was still up-the-middle.

I'm baffled.

AU gets outplayed by KSU, pretty bad.

I can't argue with that. We're extremely lucky we won.

Re: 2007 SEC Football Thread
 

That was a great start to the season for Georgia. There's definately some talent on that team despite being ranked too high preseason. That team is so young but Stafford does have half a season as a true freshman starter experience and may have the best QB skills for UGA since Eric Zeier.

The SC game should be closer. Spurrier always has Ga's number but he's not as tough without a unlimited recruiting base. 24-20 Bulldogs.

Let the Big Dawg eat!

A win is a win, though, right?

Only saw the first half of the UT-Cal game. Even though they lost, I thought UT looked better than expected.

I'd really like to see Ole Miss pull off an epic upset of someone just to get Coach O some national airtime.

heh, no. we def played bad though and worse, 3 def. starters hurt and an academically ineligible RB, although ive heard he'll be back in the next couple weeks. officiating in that game was fine though.
